from KPBS Midday Edition

The City of San Diego's Commission on Police Practices was created in 2020 with the purpose of investigating claims of police misconduct. But, six years later, it still lacks many of the powers voters approved.A recent report released by the San Diego County Civil Grand Jury raises concerns about the rollout of the commission, including stalled labor negotiations, staffing challenges and limited access to police records.On Midday Edition, we sit down with San Diego Union-Tribune reporter Kelly Davis, and revisit the measure that created the commission, and why it is struggling to meet its original vision.Guest:Kelly Davis, watchdog reporter, The San Diego Union-Tribune
