You need to read the fact check you sent me. It explains that the actual number is much lower.
In actual reality the police almost never investigate themselves.
In some departments, that’s true. I am proposing that fixing that is a high priority. I think it’s been reformed to a pretty substantial degree already, though – most of these conversations about cops doing something fucked up, in the modern day, come alongside them getting charges because of the fucked up thing that they did.
That didn’t used to be true, and more is needed, yes, but the old days where it would never happen are definitely not true anymore.
You said 40% of the city budget. It’s 17% of the city budget. Don’t throw out random numbers that are distorted into the shape of the reality you would like to perceive.
Other PDs are doing far far less, more likely nothing.
Your assertion is that Uvalde is at the leading cutting edge of the best departments in the country?

You don’t want to include the number though? It’s 40% of general fund and like 20% of total budget. How much more do you want?

And uvalde is only making very small changes after a huge failure. Other PDs are doing far far less, more likely nothing.
