Disciplinary Actions Overview – Los Angeles Police Department

Over the past decade, the Los Angeles Police Department has faced numerous disciplinary actions involving serious misconduct and civil rights violations. Notably, multiple officers were charged with falsifying records to misclassify individuals as gang members, leading to wrongful detentions and reputational damage. The department has also been sued for creating hostile work environments and retaliating against officers who reported misconduct. These incidents have resulted in significant legal settlements and have highlighted systemic issues within the department.
