The team overseeing CPD's court-ordered reform efforts slammed Supt. Brown's goal of conducting 1.5 million 'positive community interactions.'

CHICAGO -- Echoing the Illinois attorney general's office, the team overseeing the Chicago Police Department's court-ordered reform efforts slammed Supt. David Brown's goal of conducting 1.5 million"positive community interactions" and urged the department to halt the initiative.

The attorney general's office, which along with the monitoring team oversees City Hall's compliance with the consent decree, penned a letter to city lawyers in February urging the police department to"suspend or at least pause" the effort to tally 1.5 million PCIs this year, calling it a"quota system" that's"rife with significant downsides."

A Sun-Times analysis of PCI data last month found multiple accuracy issues and revealed the department was on pace to hit Brown's goal, which would mark a threefold increase over last year. A new analysis of data through March 3 shows that while PCIs dipped slightly after the letter from the attorney general's office, the department remained on track.

As noted by the monitoring team, the general order that includes that definition doesn't specify"any data or variables" officers are required to provide, meaning the data only shows that a PCI was reported. Perhaps most alarming, the report notes the directive doesn't specify whether a PCI can be related to other law enforcement actions, like a stop, search, citation or an arrest.
