Portal to articles and case studies relating to SF Police use of force"The San Francisco Police Department's general orders state that department policy is "to accomplish the police mission as effectively as possible with the highest regard for the dignity of all persons and with minimal reliance upon the use of physical force. ....... The San Francisco Police Department relies on an outmoded system to identify misconduct by its officers, and when the system does find warning signs, they are often ignored. As a result, officers whose records clearly show a propensity for violence remain on the streets."
