U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder will announce an array of reforms in the New Orleans Police Department on Tuesday as part of the most far-reaching consent decree of its kind, the New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
A monitor and federal judge will direct the mandated oversight spelled out in a 125-page agreement for at least four years.
The city will remain under a consent decree until the agency is free of violations for two years, the Times-Picayune wrote.
According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, virtually every aspect of the police force needs to be reformed.
