Supporters like Catherine Jones, whose son was killed in an officer-involved shooting, pushed for true independence to review deadly force. Opponents, including Officer Dominick Eubank, warned untrained civilians could endanger public safety.

With no Assembly member seconding the motion, the idea is on hold — but the fight for accountability in Anchorage’s public safety remains far from over.
