The peraonnel records of the LAPD are protected by statute
from public scrutiny, and the department guards this privilege carefully. The city attorney defends the practice of secrecy, regardless of
how old the records may be, on the ground that to permit access would
set a dangerous precedent. According to Captain E. B. Sanaing,
commander of the personnel bureau, the records were incomplete at
best, and everything that did not relate in an obvious way to the needs
of the department was destroyed in 1955, when the basic personnel
information was placed on microfilm. However, no scholar has been
permitted to examine the film to verify the uselessness of the
information.

| 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. |
