University Of Northern Iowa Explicitly Bans Chokeholds, ‘unless The Use Of Deadly Force Is Justified’

University of Northern Iowa’s Department of Public Safety has updated its “use of force policy” to ban chokeholds in most cases and to require officers intervene and report instances of unreasonable force following a summer review compelled by civil unrest and policing protests.UNI recently wrapped its internal review, which studied its campus police operations and policies, mental health incident training for officers, and policing statistics — including demographics of those involved in officer interactions and incident reports.
