SPOKANE, Wash. -- Spokane community leaders are issuing demands, saying they're done working with city officials to bring more police accountability and reform. Following the protests and riots over the death of George Floyd in 2020, the city asked the community to join roundtable discussions to create new policies for Spokane Police, focused on equity and officer accountability. "Progress indeed has been slow, but we have reached the point as the group, where it was time to finish the work," said Spokane Mayor Nadine Woodward.
