In North Carolina, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Citizens Review Board overturned the police chief's ruling exonerating the officers who wrongfully detained a black CMS teacher last June.
Jasmine Horne was detained when police mistook her for a suspect with the same last name and a similarly spelled first name. Jasmine was tracked down, confronted by officers at gunpoint in front of her home, and in handcuffs for around 15 minutes.
Chief Johnny Jennings initially decided to not punish his officers. Here's the tweet from the department on April 8.
"The actions of the officers who detained Jasmine Horne were found to be within policy of the CMPD as the officers were acting in good faith with the information that they were provided."
It's rare that the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Citizens Review Board rules in favor of individuals who bring complaints against the police. Since 2013, just seven of 21 appeals -- not including this case -- have reached the second phase.
