TL;DR Summary

The Civilian Office of Police Accountability is questioning the traffic stop that led to the fatal shooting of Dexter Reed by Chicago police officers, noting that the officers involved were already under investigation for a similar stop. Videos of the incident show officers firing nearly 100 shots at Reed, raising concerns about the proportionality of their use of force. The oversight agency has called for four of the five officers involved to be stripped of their police powers while the incident is investigated. Reed's family and their attorneys are demanding that the officers be fired and charged, emphasizing the need for accountability and compliance with federal mandates for change within the Police Department.
