"SNIP.........

“Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a controversial bill Friday stripping citizen oversight boards of their power to investigate police misconduct,” the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reports.

“The bill, HB 601, instead allows local chiefs of police agencies to create their own ‘civilian oversight’ boards composed of three to seven members, all appointed by the chief or sheriff. But these boards can only review policies and procedures, not oversee use-of-force complaints or internal affairs investigations.”
