Is this a Chicago issue, or a more general issue affecting institutionalized agencies ability to reform?

RE: Laquan McDonald – list four city or state organizations/entities mentioned in this case. For each, identify whether its actions delayed, advanced or had no impact on the pace of the investigation. For two of the agencies involved, contrast the official rationales given for the pace of investigation and/or embargoing the video with any ulterior motives that may have been in play (e.g., report was caught in the backlog vs. moving too fast would have blown up our relationship with the mayor). Do you think that new leadership and new policies, which all these offices got–along with Chicagos new mayor in 2019, will work a long-term change in the inter-organizational dynamics that sustained the McDonald cover-up? Is this a Chicago issue, or a more general issue affecting institutionalized agencies ability to reform? Explain your answer.
