Too bad there isn't a 10 step program for boot licking.
Whenever a person dies in custody there should be a method to determine the cause. Correct what went wrong. And accountability for those who failed to do the job in a professional manor.
The cause?
Getting your arse arrested would be my guess!
What definition would you apply to criminal arse licking?
As far as I'm concerned, after your 8th, 9th, 10th arrest, it is a given.
You are a thug and you are on your own!
Too much focus on the cops and not enough attention on the thugs, hoodlums and gangbanger. Teach these people how to live in a civilized society and the cops wouldn't have to crack their heads. These people are seriously lacking in the most basics of social decorum. Don't wanna be treated like an animal? Don't act like one.
These cops aren't afraid to do their job, that is pure nonsense, they just want to keep things the way they have been for years where their actions haven't been subject to scrutiny. Right now they are trying to play the only hand they've got- they are holding the city hostage by denying them the services that citizens have a right to expect. There is no excuse for this behavior, the "blue flu" is a trick that goes back to the early days of municipal policing and in the end the cops lose because they lose the respect of the people who are paying them.
This kind of attitude usually is the result of weak leadership. Get a new chief who sets firm standards as to what is expected of anyone in Baltimore who wears a badge and then follow through to make sure there are repercussions for those who break the rules. You want an example of what a strong Police Chief can do to not only turn around a Police Dept. but to actually make a difference in violent crime read about the Richmond California Chief, Chris Magnus Homicide rates drop as Richmond chief builds bond with community - LA Times
The mayor told the police to stand down... They are following the mayor's ordres, don't blame the chief or the officers...

There is no valid source confirming that the Mayor said any such thing, according to Fox that came from an 'unidentified' Police Officer; In my opinion it was nothing more than Fox news trying to Benghazify the Baltimore Mayor. And the problems with the Police Department go back for quite a long time..so some research before you post again, ok?
He added, “After a shift call, we get together and say again, ‘We’re just going to back each other up and answer 911 calls from our dispatcher.'” And that orders from commanders go “in one ear, out the other.”
In what private company or corporation could the subordinates get away with a statement like this ? Think about it !!! How would this play out where you work ? Other jobs pay for performance. A painter who won't paint, plumber who won't plumb, electrician who won't electrify, a taxi driver who won't take you where you want to go but decides to take you where he wants you to go. Or in this case just go to hell. We will do as we wish.
It happens all the time in private companies. When I worked at United Airlines, there was at least one "work slowdown" by the unionized employees. You still do your job, but you're no longer the "go-getter" you were before. Companies can't do anything about it unless they fire everybody. But they can't even do that under the union-management agreements that courts are ready to enforce. The red tape involved would be much more expensive than simply giving the employees what they want.

You are wrong on all points, that would make you a democrat... Democrats are the party that are, and have been for a long time, destroying America.Do some research before you post again, ok?
By the way, hillary and obama killed four good American's in Benghazi, again, do some research, ok?
