He tapped longtime LAPD critic and civil rights lawyer Constance Rice to write a report on the Rampart scandal and to oversee compliance with her recommended reforms. He's also developed a friendship with the Police Commission President John Mack, who, as head of the L.A. Urban League, was long a thorn in LAPD's side.
