Between 2014 and 2020, nearly 200 NOPD officers were accused of sexual misconduct, domestic violence, or harassment. Of these, only 38 resigned, and 6 were terminated or resigned under investigation. The department has faced ongoing issues with excessive use of force, unconstitutional stops, and discriminatory policing, leading to a federal consent decree in 2013. Efforts to end federal oversight have been met with skepticism due to persistent concerns about the department’s readiness to maintain standards independently.
