A COMPANY TO REVIEW THE BERNALILLO COUNTY SHERIFF’S POLICIES ON PURSUITS AND DEPUTY INVOLVED SHOOTINGS IS EXPECTED TO BE CHOSEN AT TUESDAY NIGHT’S COUNTY COMMISSION MEETING. COMMISSIONER MAGGIE HART STEBBINS CAME UP WITH THE IDEA OF REVIEWING THOSE POLICIES WITH AN OUTSIDE FIRM AFTER RECENT CHASES AND DEPUTY INVOLVED SHOOTINGS THAT COST LIVES AND MILLIONS OF DOLLARS FOR THE SHERIFF’S DEPARTMENT.
HART-STEBBINS NARROWED THE FIRMS BEING CONSIDERED DOWN TO TWO. ONLY THE POLICIES WILL BE REVIEWED ABOUT WHETHER THEY’RE THE BEST PRACTICES. THE REVIEW HAS TO BE COMPLETED IN 90 DAYS.
