So awesome that a federal monitor will be required to police the police.

The investigation found that city police officers had no constitutional basis for 75% of the pedestrian stops they conducted in recent years. It also determined that officers often used excessive force during arrests but underreported the level of force used.
I'm sure it was a minority of the force, though, that accounted for that 75%. If nothing else, I'm sure this is an isolated incident on the whole.

Newark is the second police department in New Jersey's history to receive a federal watchdog. The New Jersey State Police were the subject of a federal investigation after a racial-profiling scandal in 1999, and they remained under a court-appointed monitor for roughly a decade.
