ADVANCE FOR USE SUNDAY, FEB. 23, 2014 AND THEREAFTER - FILE - In this Dec. 17, 2013 file photo, Detroit Police Chief James Craig speaks with the media during "Operation Mistletoe," a raid targeting drug dealers on Detroit's west side.

In a January 2014 report, he announced a sweeping reorganization and vowed to reform a police department he said had been woefully mismanaged and had "lost the confidence of the public, lost the confidence of its own officers and lost its way …" Or as Craig puts it more succinctly: "The bottom line _ the department, like the city, was broken."
