LAPD Begins Retraining Officers
Twenty-two people have been shot by the LAPD in the first half of this year. Eleven of them have died — most recently Jason Davis, a homeless man shot in Venice on Monday. Police say there's no "epidemic," but retraining in the use of force has begun this week for all 10,000 officers. Will that help restore the confidence of black people, the homeless, the mentally ill?
