Some Detroit community activists say they're concerned that there won't be proper checks in place to report and investigate alleged abuse by county and state law enforcement officers who have been brought in to help local police fight violent crime. State police troopers and Wayne County sheriff's deputies have increased patrols as a short-staffed Detroit Police Department also deals with $75 million in budget cuts. Two state police squads began working last month in Detroit, while sheriff's deputies started patrolling streets inside the city in June, The Detroit News reported Tuesday. Officials with the state police, county sheriff's department and Wayne State University campus police have been invited to a Sept. 13 community meeting by the Detroit Board of Police Commissioners.
