It also reviewed its supervisory practices, including how concerns about experienced officers were received and investigated.
Not every historical allegation could be conclusively resolved.
Some evidence was incomplete.
Some complaints involved different circumstances.
But the findings were serious enough to require sustained changes.
Naomi received the appropriate return or disposition of her property and documentation of what had happened.
Her legal representatives also pursued remedies relating to the injuries, distress, and alleged violation of her rights.
Those matters were handled through the relevant procedures, rather than a private promise from someone impressed by her famous friend.
For Naomi, the most important thing was that her account had finally been recorded accurately.
She no longer had to listen to someone claim that she fell because she refused to cooperate.
The video showed what happened.
And the people responsible for reviewing it couldn't reasonably pretend otherwise.
Jordan visited the community center several months later.
He had been invited to speak during a public discussion about professional accountability and the importance of intervention when an officer's conduct created unnecessary danger.
Naomi attended with David.
Amanda sat beside them.
Maya slept peacefully in a stroller.
When Jordan saw Naomi, he stopped.
For a moment, he seemed nervous.
Then approached.
"Mrs. Ellis?"
Naomi looked up.
She recognized him immediately.
"Officer Price."
He nodded.
For several seconds, he struggled to speak.
Then said quietly, "I wanted to apologize."
Naomi waited.
Jordan looked toward the baby.
Then back at her.
"I should've stepped in sooner."
His voice trembled.
"I saw the situation getting worse, and I kept hoping I could calm my supervisor without directly challenging him."
He lowered his eyes.
"I was wrong."
Naomi studied him.
For a moment, she remembered his face beside the patrol car.
The radio in his hand.
The way he knelt after she fell.
Then she looked toward Maya.
For several seconds, she remained silent.
Finally, she answered.
"You called the ambulance."
Jordan nodded.
"Yes."
"You told them what happened."
He swallowed.
"Yes."
Naomi took a slow breath.
"That mattered."
His eyes filled.
She continued.
"But I wish someone had stopped him before he pushed me."
Jordan nodded.
"So do I."
For a moment, neither spoke.
Then Naomi looked directly at him.
"I hope you remember that the next time someone needs help."
Jordan swallowed.
"I will."
She nodded.
It wasn't a dramatic reconciliation.
Naomi didn't pretend he had done everything correctly.
