The problem is that the atmosphere
does not yet exist...
1:04:04
in which an honest police officer
can act...
1:04:06
without fear of ridicule
or reprisal from fellow officers.
1:04:10
Police corruption cannot exist
unless it is at least tolerated...
1:04:14
at higher levels
in the department.
1:04:16
Therefore, the most important result
that can come from these hearings...
1:04:20
is a conviction by police officers
that the department will change.
1:04:25
In order to ensure this...
1:04:26
an independent,
permanent investigative body...
1:04:29
dealing with police corruption,
like this commission, is essential.
