Police review boards are targeted by Florida Legislature


A Senate committee Tuesday signed off on an effort to ban review boards that investigate local law enforcement, with the sponsor of the proposal arguing that the panels are “divisive” and “second-guess” internal probes.

The proposal (SB 576) would do away with existing boards and bar counties and cities from creating panels to delve into complaints of police wrongdoing.
