Deputy Chief Sean Malinowski, the architect of the L.A. Police Department’s data programs used to fight crime, is retiring May 16. The move comes as the LAPD works to overhaul the programs he created.
LAPD Deputy Chief Sean Malinowski plans to retire May 16. Since 2010, he has been one of the architects behind the way the LAPD uses data to target crime. One of the programs came under fire last month by the inspector general.
than eight years ago to predict locations of property crimes after questions were raised about its effectiveness and whether black and Latino communities are unfairly targeted.A 25-year veteran, Malinowski said he plans to work part time at the University of Chicago and run his own company, which won a $635,000 contract in March with the Baltimore Police Department.
Last July, newly appointed Police Chief Michel Moore picked Malinowski, 54, to be the chief of detectives. He has also led the weekly Compstat meetings at which station captains are grilled by higher-ups about how to reduce crime. The department, he said, has a “deep bench” of leaders committed to using data to make Los Angeles safer.
Police leaders in Chicago and Baltimore — both notorious for gun violence — sought his help to establish high-tech centers that allow police and civilian analysts to monitor gunshot detectors, surveillance cameras and use other data to determine where crimes occur.
