Md. AG Hires Chief for New Unit to Investigate Killings by Police

Maryland’s attorney general is hiring a former U.S. Department of Justice attorney to lead a new unit tasked with investigating killings by police, according to a news release.

Dana Mulhauser worked in the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division for 12 years, prosecuting police misconduct, hate crimes and human trafficking cases throughout the country. Since 2019, Mulhauser has served as the founding chief of a unit in the St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office that reviews police shootings and prosecutes excessive force and police misconduct cases.

“Dana brings a wealth of experience leading complex federal cases centering around law-enforcement misconduct,” Attorney General Brian Frosh said in the release announcing Mulhauser’s hiring Monday.

The new unit in Maryland’s attorney general’s office was created as part of a series of police reforms the General Assembly passed earlier this year. It is charged with investigating all alleged or potential police-involved deaths of civilians and providing a report containing detailed findings to the state’s attorney of the county that has jurisdiction.

  1. Lipstick on a Pig.

    Why? To meet society reaction.

    Investigations always take place internally when actions by LEOs lead to an unfortunate killing.

    Could be a firearm, baton, car, choke hold, fists, etc.

  2. And I’ll bet that every investigation lead by Dana was concluded with the Police Office being at fault.

    If I were a Maryland police officer and I was dispatched to a crime where the perpetrators were still present, I would kindly ask them to surrender and come with me to the police station and if they resisted, I’d them the “Thank You” and let them go. Why if God’s name any fool would want to become a police officer is beyond my comprehension.
