Missoulian: DOJ:
Missoula police make 'tremendous' progress on rape response
United States Attorney Michael W. Cotter Delivers Remarks on the Missoula Police Department's Full Compliance with Agreement
“It goes without saying that rape is a horribly violent crime with devastating consequences to the victim. Whether the rape is committed by an acquaintance or stranger, victims find themselves in a very, very dark place. When the Department of Justice demonstrated that gender bias was undermining Missoula’s law enforcement response to sexual assault, both the Missoula Police and University of Montana immediately agreed to a broad set of fundamental changes that began to dramatically improve their ability to protect victims of sexual assault. These reforms have made the Missoula Police Department more accountable, transparent and credible. With accountability, transparency and credibility comes community trust. Today, the Missoula Police Department is stronger and trusted. Indeed, Missoula is a model for every town in this nation to emulate.”
