GREAT NEWS: Model Police Department in Maine Agrees to Participate In New "Bias Awareness" Training To STOMP OUT Police Brutality

By John Paluska, Founder of The Daily Fodder

Finally, some long-overdue good news on police reforms! The Saco County Police Department in Maine has agreed to incorporate a "Bias Awareness" police training class to help officers root out any implicit biases they may have in an effort to stomp police brutality.

NBC NewsCenter Maine reports:

SACO, Maine — The Saco Police Department is partnering with Maine Public Safety Commissioner Michael Sauschuck to connect law enforcement agencies in the state with an "implicit bias-awareness training" through Fair and Impartial Policing. 

Fair and Impartial Policing’s training is aimed at calling awareness to people's innate biases and perceptions of others that might affect an officer's work in policing the public, and to improve upon becoming impartial in police work.

The Saco Police Department says they've worked with Public Safety Commissioner Sauschuck to dispense funds to not only bring training to Saco but also expand the opportunity to other law enforcement agencies in Maine. 

Saco County already has excellent officers who have seen few cases of police brutality in general this year, despite having cases of grand theft and auto theft.  But going the extra mile is always a great way to keep it that way.
