Charlie Beck Can Make Your Parking Tickets Go Away
The Chief of the LAPD Tells All, Or At Least Some, In the Green Room
Charlie Beck has been the chief of the Los Angeles Police Department since November 2009, when he succeeded Bill Bratton. He has been with the LAPD since the late 1970s, and his father, George Beck, was also a member of the force, retiring as deputy chief in 1980. Before participating in a panel discussion of the legacy of James Q. Wilson, Chief Beck paid a visit to the Zócalo green room to answer a few questions.
