Quote:
The Angiolini Review of deaths in police custody found that, while the death rate of black individuals arrested was not disproportionate to white people in England, the proportion of deaths involving use of force was.
It also found that mental health and intoxication was a major factor in deaths in police custody, meaning black people with mental health issues often suffered "double discrimination".

In 2016, David Lammy was asked to lead a government-backed review into the treatment of black and minority ethnic (BAME) individuals in the criminal justice system in England and Wales.
The final report made 35 recommendations, including:
- introducing assessments of young offenders' maturity
- exploring how criminal records could be "sealed" or kept from employers, in particular for young people
- allowing some prosecutions to be deferred

Basically, try to let them get away with committing crime.
