After tha murder of Dr. Martin Luther Ring, Jr., Reddin ordered
that police vehiclee proceed vlth headlights on, ss s mark of reepect to
the black community and lta elaln hero. Reddin eleo lncreesed the
department efforta to recruit Negro offlcera. Furthermore, the chief
established the post of inspector-general, outside the regder helrerchy,
as suggested by the McCone Commission. The nev officer directed the
internal affaire division, but reported directly to Reddin rather then
to the commander of the epecid cervices bureau. In theory, the internal
affdrs division would be more profeeelonsl, end leea likely to undervalue tha teetlnony of complaining citizens.*

something to do with the unit's fsllure. Some members armed themselves,

| Description | Joseph Gerald Woods. The progressives and the police: urban reformers and the professionalization of the Los Angeles police. University of California, Los Angeles (Ph.D., history), 1973. Published by University Microfilms International (Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA), 1982. PART OF A SERIES: A critical component of the Commission's investigation centered on the idea that governance of the LAPD was shared between the Office of the Chief of Police, an administrative body, and the Board of Police Commissioners, a citizen body. To better understand the dynamic between these two entities, the staff of Heller, Ehrman, White, & McAuliffe researched the history of the Los Angeles City Charter, focusing primarily on its provisions regarding the distribution of power and the structure and organization of the LAPD. Included in the series are reproductions of reports, dissertations, article clippings, excerpts from city documents, and charter amendments related to the charter's conception and development over time. The series also includes several summaries of expert witness interviews regarding the effectiveness of this structure. |
