African American motorists were 231 percent more likely to be searched in comparison to white motorists, according to the review.
The research, conducted by the Michigan State University School of Criminal Justice, found that African American motorists were more likely to be stopped than anticipated in consideration of several benchmarks, such as population, comparisons of daylight stops vs. nighttime stops and an analysis of crash data.
"These findings demand immediate action. The people of Michigan deserve unbiased policing, transparency and accountability," said Colonel Joe Gasper, director of the state police. The department also plans to establish a professional development bureau to train employees and provide body-worn cameras to all personnel who could interact with the public. There is funding for the cameras in the state's current budget.
