The Police Civilian Review Board is completely independent of the Police Department. Neither the Board nor the Investigator report to anyone at the Police Department. The Board’s funding is completely independent of the Police Department. Conversely, Internal Affairs is a unit within the Police Department that is responsible for conducting internal investigations of allegations against police officers. Internal Affairs reports within the Police Department.
