(CHICAGO) The video of the police killing of Maurice Granton has one of the community activist candidates for mayor talking about a new approach to police accountability.
Ja’Mal Green says each cop should be required to have personal liability insurance, paid for by the city, in order to serve on the street, “If an insurance company deems you too risky and you don’t have insurance, then you would be reassigned to desk duty. So it’s gonna help us rid bad apples but save us billions of dollars as well.”
On another big issue, Green says he’d stop water main reconstruction and give residents free water filters until lines that are leeching lead can be replace, “We’re not saying you’re on your own, change your own service lines or allow your kids to be poisoned. These are precious, precious kids futures that we’re dealing with right now.”
