The Cleveland
Division of Police, under the direction of Chief Michael McGrath, continue to
investigate the facts and circumstances of the November 29, 2012 pursuit that
ended in East Cleveland with the use of deadly force by Cleveland Police
Officers. Although the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigations, East Cleveland
Police and the Cuyahoga County Sheriff’s Office are actively investigating the
use of deadly force incident, the Chief of Police and his staff are conducting a
thorough Administrative Review to determine if the officers involved were in
compliance with well-established policies and training.
This Administrative
Review includes all available surveillance video; audio communications between
officers, supervisors and the Communications Control Section; duty reports
completed by officers and supervisory personnel; Automated Vehicle Locator (AVL)
information; and any other information that becomes available during the
investigation.
The volume of
information being reviewed by the Chief and his staff is substantial. However,
the Chief of Police has assured Mayor Jackson and me that the Administrative
Review will be timely and thorough, and results of the Administrative Review
will be made public immediately upon conclusion.
