This week, NYPD officer Daniel Pantaleo was fired for his
involvement in the 2014 death of Eric Garner. The incident helped
to stimulate the Black Lives Matter movement, and sparked public
debate about the limits of and accountability for law
enforcement.
With these debates once again at the fore, BackStory revisits a
segment originally published in 2016. In it, producer Nina
Earnest explores how the professionalization of the Los Angeles
Police Department ended up putting the department above the law
they were supposed to enforce.
