Christopher Dorner:Victim Of A Corrupt LAPD

By Walter Randall Bannister

The LAPD has long been a troubled law enforcement agency. Basic elements of effective policing - clear policies, training, accountability, and confidence of the citizenry - have been absent for years. Far too often, LAPD officers have shown a lack of respect for the civil rights and dignity of the people of Los Angeles. While some of LAPD officers of the force are hardworking and committed to public safety, too many officer of every rank do not understand or choose to ignore the boundaries of constitutional policing. I believe at one point Christopher Dorner, was a good apple -- who wanted to simply expose LAPD for their misconduct. While some would argue that, given the difficulty of police work, officers must at times police harshly and bend the rules when a community is confronted with seemingly intransigent high levels of crime. Policing is undeniable difficult; however, experience and study in the policing field have made it clear that bending the rules and ignoring the Constitution makes effective policing much more challenging. LAPD's failure to ensure that its officer routinely respect the Constitution and the rule of law undermines trust within the very communities whose cooperation the Department most needs to enforce the law and prevent inside-department crimes. This goes to show you as systematic violations of civil rights erode public confidence, policing becomes more difficult, less safe, and less effective, and until LAPD gets a hold of this inside law-enforcement crimes will continue in its increases. Chief beck can't be trusted. Member of Rampart Division and CRASH team -- he has a long history of ties to excessive force and corruption. How do you think he made it to Chief?
