The Use of Statistical Evidence to Address Police
Supervisory and Disciplinary Practices: The Chicago
Police Department’s Broken System*
By Craig B. Futterman, H. Melissa Mather, and

Excerpt from “Broken System”

Less than five percent of the Department account
for nearly half of all abuse complaints against the
Chicago Police Department.

Indeed, 662 Chicago police officers, a little less
than 5% of the CPD’s 13,500 member force,
amassed 11 or more official misconduct
complaints between 2001 and 2006. Because the
vast majority of officers get only a few complaints
in their entire careers, it is easy to identify those
who may be engaged in a pattern of abusive
behavior. They literally jump off the page.
Figure 4, Complaints Against Chicago Police
Officers, 2001-2006, illustrates the distribution of
complaints among Chicago police officers.49
