Local faith leaders marched in South Bend on Saturday to demand that a disciplinary policy for police officers be adopted within the next 60 days.
It comes a day after a special prosecutor announced the state won’t file charges against a white police officer who fatally shot a black man last June.
With singing and praying at a church in downtown South Bend, faith leaders outlined their plan to hold Mayor James Mueller to his campaign promises. Those include implementing a police discipline matrix, giving de-escalation training to officers, and launching a Peacemaker Fellowship.
