THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, WHICH CAME DOWN HARD ON THE ALBUQUERQUE POLICE DEPARTMENT LAST WEEK, SAYS IT CONDEMNS THE THREAT OF VIOLENCE AGAINST POLICE OFFICERS. FLYERS STATING "SAVE A LIFE, KILL A COP" HAVE BEEN DISTRIBUTED RECENTLY NEAR THE UNM CAMPUS AND OTHER PARTS OF THE CITY.
IN A STATEMENT RELEASED TUESDAY, THE D-O-J SAYS ALTHOUGH ITS FINDINGS SHOW AN UNCONSTITUTIONAL USE OF FORCE BY APD, THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE HAS THE COMMITTMENT OF THE CITY TO WORK TOGETHER TO BRING ABOUT MEANINGFUL REFORM WITHIN THE POLICE DEPARTMENT.
