I think this only addresses half of what's wrong with Newark PD.

Newark still spends about a third of it's city budget on police, at the expense of essential services like infrastructure and education.

Newark PD still arrests Black people at a much much higher rate than white people. The disparity of arrest rates is even greater when it comes to drug possession.
