No decision made to ban chokeholds in Milwaukee’s Police Department, next vote for April 15

MANHATTAN, NY - July 26: A protester holds a sign that says, "Justice for George Floyd" as the crowd of hundreds pass the New York Police Dept office in Times Square New York in support of Black Women. This non-violent protest was a March for Black Womxn which started at Times Square and walked through Manhattan. This is days after Portland and other cities have seen federal agents have taken protesters and put into unmarked vehicles while others have been beaten and pepper sprayed. Protesters continue taking to the streets across America and around the world after the killing of George Floyd at the hands of a white police officer Derek Chauvin that was kneeling on his neck during for eight minutes, was caught on video and went viral. During his arrest as Floyd pleaded, "I Can't Breathe". The protest are attempting to give a voice to the need for human rights for African American's and to stop police brutality against people of color. They are also protesting deep-seated racism in America. Many people were wearing masks and observing social distancing due to the coronavirus pandemic.

MILWAUKEE — For the second time in the month of March, Milwaukee’s Fire and Police Commission adjourned their meeting with no decision made on the full banning of chokeholds by city’s police department.

Acting Chief Jeffrey Norman continued his initial stance, advocating that MPD does not train chokeholds and that the department is not advocating for their usage.

Norman adds that he wants to give the Milwaukee Police Supervisor’s Organization a chance to meet before an official decision is made. The MPSO will meet on April 12, three days prior to the FPC’s second meeting of the month on April 15.

As of now, the partial ban remains in place. Milwaukee officers can only use chokeholds should they have any reason to believe their life is at risk.
