Answer to Question 1

The two types of administrative review are: an internal affairs unit (IAU) review and an external civilian review. An IAU review is a review of police misconduct by special officers inside a police department. An external civilian review is a review of complaints against police officers with participation by individuals who aren't sworn police officers.

Internal review consists of four consecutive stages: intake, investigation, deliberation, and disposition. Four possible decisions can be made in the deliberation stage: unfounded, exonerated, not sustained, and sustained. If the decision is unfounded, exonerated, or not sustained, the case is disposed of and closed. If the decision is sustained, the supervisor recommends disciplinary action. This recommendation goes through the chain of command until it reaches the chief, who makes the decision regarding the disciplinary action.

External civilian review procedures include: the initial investigation to collect the facts, the review of the investigation reports, the recommendation for disposition to the chief, and the review of decisions made by the chief.
