1.0 out of 5 stars Banal liberalism from a failed police chief, October 21, 2001
By 
R. Allen (Minneapolis, MN USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: A Carpet of Blue: An Ex-Cop Takes a Tough Look at America's Drug Problem (Hardcover)
Former Chief Bouza led his city in a denial of the serious crime problems that it was facing. He denied that the city had a gang problem until gang violence skyrocketed--eventually to the point where Minneapolis was labeled "Murderapolis" on the front page of the Sunday Times. He was succeeeded by two chiefs who turned around the police department and who have succeeded at reducing crime.

The difference in leadership is thatBouza advocates holding society accountable for the actions of criminals, and effective police leaders hold criminals accountable for criminal behavior.
