Senate committee weighs U.S. probe of all police killings of minorities

James Pasco, executive director of the Fraternal Order of Police‘s Washington office, said Grassley‘s proposal triggering a review of minority and police-related killings would be a violation of the Constitution because it creates a special class of citizens, rather than mandating equal treatment for all people by federal, state and local law enforcement. The Fraternal Order of Police is the largest police labor organization with 335,000 members nationwide.
