The department consists of about 500 sworn personnel, approximately 420 patrol officers and 80 supervisors. On July 8, 2020, the U.S. Department of Justice announced that it found the SPD Narcotics Bureau to be engaging in a pattern or practice of excessive force. On April 13, 2022, the DOJ announced that it reached a consent decree with the SPD. The agreement requires a court-appointed independent monitor, improved reporting of uses of force, more training, and better internal investigations of misconduct."@en . "Rupert Daniel"@en .
