What recourse does he have? 
When police are the assailants, 
you can�t call 911. In 1990, 
Minneapolis voters established 
the Civilian Review Authority (CRA) as an alternative. Twelve years later, 
the CRA�s ineffectiveness made it 
an easy target for city budget cuts. 

�The CRA was established through 
incredible actions by citizens and 
we need to respect that,� said 8th Ward City Councilmember Robert Lilligren, 
member of Mayor Rybak�s CRA Redesign Action Group
made up of 24 people, half city officials and MPD, half diverse community 
representatives. They are the voices in this article.
