Summary
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani directed the NYPD to conduct its first comprehensive review of use-of-force policies in a decade, following criticism over an officer who retired before facing a disciplinary trial over the March 2024 fatal shooting of 19-year-old Win Rozario. The reforms aim to stop officers from retiring to avoid discipline, ensure compliance with state death-reporting rules, and standardize communication with victims' families. Mamdani said force must be used "lawfully, carefully and only when necessary."
