Oversight Review of the United States Capitol Police Office of Professional Responsibility

In furtherance of its annual plan, the Office of Inspector General (OIG) for the U.S. Capitol Police (USCP) conducted a quality assessment review of the Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR).  Because this is the first OIG review of OPR, our objective was to gain an understanding of the processes as well as assess the efficiency and effectiveness of the OPR operation. Our scope included OPR investigations closed between October 1, 2011, and August 1, 2012.
