Description

In July 2014, New York City Civilian Complaint Review Board Chairperson Richard Emery, in the wake of the tragic death of Eric Garner... asked the CCRB staff to undertake an objective, comprehensive assessment of chokehold complaints made to the CCRB. The study investigates chokehold complaints, primarily from January 2009 until June 2014, in order to report finding and make recommendations to the NYPD Police Commissioner and the public. After documenting and evaluating five and a half years of chokehold complaints, their patterns and the likely causes of their persistence, this reports recommends ways in which the CCRB and the NYPD can collaborate to reduce chokehold incidents and eliminate future chokehold tragedies.***NOTE: GRAPHS AND CHARTS in gray scale to minimize production costs***
