Civilian review board no help to Police Department

There is but one endeavor more futile and unnecessarily costly than fixing something that was not broken in the first place. That is directing that superfluous corrective action be taken and, while in progress, either not allowing it to run its course to completion or worse, ignoring its success. I hope to be proven wrong; however, I fear the imposition of a civilian review board for the Columbia Police Department is a fait accompli.
