Anchorage Police Reform Progress and Pitfalls | Anchorage News

Anchorage’s police chief is getting praised by independent assessors for meaningful reform strides—especially in internal investigations—but they’re warning that sustaining these changes is the real challenge. Experts are pushing back on expanding the PIT maneuver beyond 35 mph, citing deadly risks at higher speeds, and calling for deeper scrutiny into a small group of officers responsible for nearly 20% of all use-of-force incidents. They’re also urging leadership to combat “reform fatigue” through more hands-on field engagement and smarter delegation. While the chief’s cultural transformation efforts are seen as genuine, the assessors stress that lasting progress depends on public vigilance and accountability.
