one-on-one interview with the I-Team<\/a>, CPD Superintendent Larry Snelling addressed the OIG report that cites significant gaps.<\/p>\n“There’s a lot of stuff that we’re working on technology and our system of records management system that’s going to help us streamline the process,” Snelling said. “We’re in the process of working on those things right now, and I don’t it’s too I don’t have enough time here to get into all of the nuances of that report. But, what I can tell you is we want to do the best that we can to keep the best possible records, to streamline any process and to make sure that we’re transparent with everything we’re doing.”<\/p>\n
Witzburg explaining if discipline is not properly documented, there’s no way to know whether problem police officers are actually being penalized.<\/p>\n
“I think that improved case management, improved Information Management, is likely to alleviate many of these concerns going forward, I don’t think that has much to say about what we’re going to do about the fact that we have thousands of active members where we cannot ensure the comprehensiveness or the accuracy of their disciplinary records,” she said.<\/p>\n
Responding to the inspector general’s report, the city of Chicago said a new information and case management system has been implemented since the period analyzed by Witzburg’s office.<\/p>\n
The IG noted of the four CPD final discipline action types, violation noted, reprimand, suspension, and separation, all finalized separations were appropriately documented.<\/p>\n
