Chicago Police Superintendent Larry Snelling is touting the nation's second-largest police department as fully prepared for protests ahead of the Democratic National Convention , including on a new mass arrest policyChicago Police Superintendent Larry Snelling on Tuesday touted the the nation’s second-largest police department as fully prepared to handle crowds of protesters expected during the Democratic National Convention , including new ways to handle possible mass arrests.
Proposed changes to the way police deal with mass arrests, which are still being finalized, include more supervisor review onsite and debriefings afterward to see what worked and what didn't. “Mass arrest is a last resort,” Snelling said. “But we know the realities of these types of situations, especially when the number of people we’re expecting to converge upon Chicago is inevitable that there is a possibility for vandalism. There is a possibility for violence, and we are prepared to deal with that.”
More than 50 organizations plan to protest in Chicago, which has denied permits for demonstrations near the United Center convention site. That has sparked lawsuits and groups vowing to march whether or not they have permits.civil unrest broke out nationwide. Last week, the city's Office of the Inspector General said the department has made progress, but it has work to do when it comes to large-scale events.“Our focus is to ensure that we cover off on all potential challenges that we may face during this event and make sure we are fully prepared for it — and I do believe that we are,” she said.
