The police changes will help prevent wrong raids and will ensure that the search warrants are “being carried out with a respect for human dignity.” The city said the changes will also guarantee accountability and transparency following wrong raids.The following changes will be taking effect during searches:After a search, the police department will obtain a complaint log number and will now also conduct an after-action review for all wrongful raids, which now includes those served at a wrong address and served based on inaccurate information.The changes come following the events that took place at Anjanette Young’s home and the city’s actions that followed.Police incorrectly raided Young’s home in 2019 and bodycam footage shows her standing naked and handcuffed. She and said the incident was humiliating.“Even if If Ms. Young was the biggest drug kingpin, we still should have treated her with dignity and respect,” Brown said.“What Ms. Young experienced continues to be traumatic and disturbing for all Chicagoans of goodwill,” Lightfoot added. “We have owned and have a responsibility to make right what was wrong.”As the department makes reforms, several aldermen are pushing for an ordinance that would constrain police by law.
