Florida wants cops to report bosses for immigration enforcement 'failures'

The instructions on the website suggest the complaints can be anonymous.

Florida officials want local police officers to report their bosses to the state if they believe they are not fully complying with state immigration directives as part of a broad push to get law enforcement agencies on board with President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown.

In a statement issued Tuesday, Florida’s immigration czar Larry Keefe said that “concerned law enforcement officers and employees” can now report any failures by their agencies to the state through the newly created “Law Enforcement Accountability Dashboard.”

“This reporting system will provide a direct channel for officers and employees to report any failure by their agency to comply with Florida’s immigration enforcement policies,” Keefe said. “Let there be no misunderstanding — Florida law will be enforced.”

The dashboard, hosted by a website run by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, is the latest effort by the state to pressure police departments and sheriff’s offices across the state to help the Trump administration identify and deport immigrants who are in the country illegally.

1. When every employee is a whistleblower trust and camaraderie will be undermined

There will be unintended consequences, perhaps paranoia, mistrust, and more. How will it effect LE functioning which is to say interaction with the public? Do they know? Have they thought about it?
