There is a Justice Department-funded police misconduct registry called the National Decertification Index (NDI). The NDI lists over 30,000 officer decertifications, which means states have deemed them ineligible to serve as a police officer. It does not track officers accused of misconduct.
Currently, there are 44 states with 45 agencies – North Carolina has two – reporting decertifications to the NDI, Becar said.
Rhode Island, New Jersey, Hawaii, California and Georgia are the only states that don’t report decertifications. Becar does not know the reason behind these states not reporting.

She's now 37 years old. She stole a shirt worth $15.00 and her son didn't have any clothes - she was living in an unsafe environment.
Village claims it has the right to certify her.
State says with this on her record, she would not be credible before a jury. I thought charges were dismissed?
The board’s decision is listed as a “decertification,” making her ineligible to serve as a police officer at departments across the country, Buckley said. She was added to the Cook County state’s attorney’s office’s “do not call” list of officers whom prosecutors will not call on to testify in court.

Maybe she could run for the House instead?

Is the board appointed? If so...
Dear Governor, have I got a suggestion for you!

The 18-member Board, created by the Illinois Police Training Act, has operated since 1965. Twelve of the 18 board members are appointed by the Governor of Illinois from various specified expertise subsets, and six ex-officio board members are executives of statewide, Cook County, and Chicago law enforcement.

When former police Officer Zenna Ramos heard the decision that put her career back on track after facing the prospect of never working as a cop again, she began to sob.
The former Cicero officer’s career had been derailed in April when her certification was blocked by the Illinois Law Enforcement Standards and Training Board while applying to the XXXXXXX Police Department. The board had cited the $14.99 theft of a T-shirt in 2008 and another theft in 2003, when Ramos was 17 years old.
But Ramos, now 37, won an appeal Thursday when the board’s waiver review committee voted to rescind its previous decision to block Ramos’ certification. The reversal paves the way for Ramos to again patrol suburban streets.

Seems like it was the correct decision.

She's a Cicero cop? Well shit, she's mobbed up anyway. A team player.
I hate to say it, but you may well be right. Cicero, home of Al Capone for a while, is not known for its squeaky-clean government.
I hope we are wrong.
