Source: Associated Press
  1. Summary
    Findings from the Justice Department's two-year investigation into the Louisville Metro Police Department (LMPD) were released on Wednesday. The report was commissioned after the 2020 death of Breonna Taylor.

    Attorney General Merrick Garland said that the LMPD "cites people for minor offenses [...] while serious crimes [...] go unsolved." The report found incidents of officers calling Black people "monkey" or "boy," and said the LMPD unlawfully executes search warrants and uses excessive force, among other things. It also found that Black motorists were twice as likely to be searched as white ones.

    The Department outlined 36 remedial measures for the LMPD to take and said the city has agreed to let a judge monitor its progress in adopting the reforms. The associate attorney general said similar consent decrees have significantly reduced police use of force in Baltimore, Seattle, and Albuquerque. Some of the measures, such as a ban on no-knock warrants, have already been implemented by the city.

Would concerns about safety keep you from traveling to Mexico?

Context: Four American tourists kidnapped after being caught in cartel conflict in Mexico; two die.

HIGHLIGHTED COMMENTS

“ Yes - I have traveled all over Mexico 100s of times in the last 50+ years. There has always been an element of corruption and violence brought on by the drug cartels. The instances of violence, kidnappings, disappearances, etc of tourists has been on the increase over the last 10 years to the point where I no longer want to risk myself, family or friends becoming victims. This is very unfortunate as Mexico is rich in culture and has a lot to offer. ”
