You think insurance (investigations + collecting payments + paying out claims + profit) would be cheaper than a civilian oversight board (investigations)?
Explain that one to me please. It’s this sort of thinking that causes the US to pay 3 times more for health care than anyone else.
The money for insurance would come out of department budgets or police officer wages, which is basically government money again (you can bet those would be adjusted for the extra insurance cost).
