Los Angeles police commissioners said on Tuesday, March 15, they were concerned that the disciplinary process for officers has been overturning their decisions to mete out punishment to those who wrongly fired their guns while on the job.made public last week shows that of the 66 officers the commission found broke department policy in 2015 to 2020 when firing their weapons, 27 were not punished and another 20 were suspended from two to 55 days.
