Minneapolis Police Officer at DOJ Investigation Announcement

A Minneapolis police officer attends a press conference where the Department of Justice announced the findings of its investigation into the Minneapolis Police Department. The investigation was prompted by concerns over the department's practices, particularly following the murder of George Floyd in May 2020. The DOJ's findings, released in June 2023, concluded that the department engaged in a pattern or practice of unconstitutional conduct. This event marked a significant moment in the ongoing efforts to reform policing in Minneapolis and address systemic issues.
