LAPD chief blasts mob meltdown after chaos at police commission meeting

LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell torched the chaos at Tuesdays Police Commission meeting, saying serial disruptors hijacked a forum meant for accountability and turned it into a shutdown spectacle. Councilmember John Lee, chair of LA City public safety committee was blunt: the tactics only intimidate residents who want to participate, and as an elected official his top job is protecting the police so public safety work can actually get done.
