- Despite Court Order, NYPD Failed to Properly Monitor Stop-and-Frisks by Aggressive Unit
The New York City Police Department's Community Response Team failed to properly monitor stop-and-frisks, with over 2,000 stops not reviewed, despite a federal court order requiring such reviews. The team has a history of unconstitutional stops and has drawn hundreds of civilian complaints. The failure to review stops means that unconstitutional actions may have gone undetected.
