Cranston police find 25 more unrecorded complaints

police officials say they've discovered another 25 complaints against officers that weren't properly recorded and they're trying to figure out why.

The Providence Journal reports ( http://bit.ly/x9WK0A) that the complaints include allegations of excessive force and misconduct that were not properly recorded between 2006 and 2009. That brings the number of missing complaints that have been found to 66. The additional 25 complaints were found in the two years since an audit of the police department's internal affairs office.

Col. Marco Palombo says police officials are searching for explanations.

Most of the complaints were made during the tenure of former Police Chief Stephen McGrath, who didn't respond to a request for comment by the newspaper.
