St. Charles Police Department Reorganizes

Also, Police Chief Randy McKinley was sworn in Tuesday.

In January, the St. Charles Police Department got a new police chief and underwent a major reorganization.  The department has moved back to a single-district structure and away from a two-district organization in which the city was split into two areas.

Improving police and their accountability, and selecting and evaluating their leaders is a daunting task (but not one that should be selecting three chiefs in less than a year!). But it's not an impossible one. And we will all benefit from continued effort to do it. Most people know little about police and what they should expect from them.
