A bill in the California legislature seeks to limit police officers' use of force -- and has both ardent supporters and detractors. Peter Hanink, a doctoral student in criminology, law and society, recently spoke with the Desert Sun about the bill.
“Given what the court recognizes as the realities of the conditions under which an officer is making a decision,” Hanink told the Desert Sun, “this bill seeks to narrow the universe of circumstances when deadly force is used.”
