Five landmark Changes in the Boston Police
Department 1989 to 2003
  • The first landmark event was the Charles Stuart
    Murder Investigation( 1989),where Stuart killed
    his pregnant wife, Carol DiMatti-Stuart.
  • The second event was the issuing of the St. Clair
    Report in January, 1992. This was a turning point
    in reforming the police department.
  • The third major event (1995) a spike in publicly
    noted youth violence. The media began to focus on
    youth gang violence.
  • A fourth event is in fact a series of related
    issues arising from concerted attempts to control
    youth violence, resulting in a new initiative
    Operation Ceasefire(1995)and the Ten Point
    Coalition.
  • A fifth turning point was the continuing focus on
    guided and rational change within the Boston
    department. The department continues to innovate,
    focusing on community policing. They have a
    policy that officers will spend at least 60 of
    their patrol time in a given designated area or
    "neighborhood beat
