Mobile has released a redacted copy of a review examining practices within the city's police department. Former U.S. Attorney Kenyen Brown conducted the probe at the request of Mayor Sandy Stimpson and resulted in Police Chief Paul Prine being placed on administrative leave.

The Mobile City Council will consider a resolution authorizing the removal of Paul Prine as Police Chief on Tuesday, April 23. This comes as the city asked former U.S. Attorney Kenyen Brown to conduct a report on policies, procedures and training within the Mobile Police Department after concerns were raised from the community.
