LA Police Commission Picks 3 Finalists for Police Chief
The LA Police Commission has named the three finalists for the position of Top Cop in LA.
We are very pleased that our choice, William Bratton, former Police Commissioner of New York and Boston, is one of the finalists.
"The Police Commission on Thursday named former New York police commissioner William Bratton, Oxnard Police Chief Art Lopez and former Philadelphia police commissioner John Timoney to its short list of choices to be the city's next police chief."
The mayor is expected to choose from the list of three.
As we've been saying for the past month, Bill Bratton is the only one who can reform that corrupt, scandal-ridden department.
Update: More on the three finalists and reaction to their selection is in today's LA Times, free registration required, here and here. For reactions to no "insider" from the LAPD being chosen, go here.
