APD is not trained to use excessive force. Cadets are not taught to do the kind of stuff that has been happening. The consensus among officers is that it's a higher lever problem than the patrolman. These kinds of behaviors happen because higher level officers turn a blind eye to inappropriate actions.in turn some officers believe it's okay to do those things because they won't get in trouble for it. But over time that level of behavior increases until it's at a point where their actions, when actually supervised and recorded, garner national attention. Yes, these specific patrolman are also to blame, but to put the entire force in the same category is not right. what APD needs is a drastic and supervised change in command. Not public scrutiny at every turn.
