Chicago police’s chief of constitutional policing and reform spoke Tuesday at a U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee hearing in Washington, D.C.
Angel Novalez spoke at the committee’s hearing on “Law Enforcement Officer Safety: Protecting Those Who Protect and Serve.” Novalez said policing is a dangerous job and its emotional toll on officers cannot be underestimated.
Two Chicago police officers and one sergeant died by suicide within a month this year.
