Detroit chief lays out towing reforms amid ongoing FBI corruption probe – By Sarah Rahal (The Detroit News) / Nov 9 2021
Detroit — Detroit Police Chief James White on Tuesday laid out the first steps in reforming the city’s towing practices amid an ongoing bribery investigation that has ensnared several police officers and a city councilman.
White, during a Tuesday news conference at Detroit Public Safety Headquarters, said the department is working to implement a new process that would make it “very difficult, if not entirely impossible, for anyone to repeat some of the behavior we’ve seen.”
The briefing mirrored the four key areas Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan outlined to The Detroit News in September to reconfigure the city’s municipal towing system.
