Minneapolis approves settlement agreement to reshape policing.
The Minneapolis City Council has unanimously approved a court-enforceable settlement agreement that will alter the city's policing practices following the murder of George Floyd. The agreement comes with 13 different pieces, pertaining to things from stop and search to body-worn camera use to new police training. The agreement would also require behavioral health and response teams to work with the MPD, would set up a new form of oversight, and would require the city to provide funding to meet its new obligations. The agreement comes with a "due date" of four years from now.
