Former Chief Paul Prine was accused in a city report published in April 2024 of fostering a culture of excessive force and discrimination within the department, particularly affecting the Black community. The report highlighted his ‘autocratic demeanor’ as a contributing factor. Prine was placed on administrative leave and subsequently terminated on April 30, 2024, after nearly three decades in law enforcement. He has since filed a lawsuit against city officials, alleging defamation and wrongful termination. ([apnews.com](https://apnews.com/article/a8a46bf97bf38b9d9dc8ca701010c67c?utm_source=openai))
