"Police get Irish tips on crowd policing; Monitoring by rights lawyers, openness urged" by Maria Cramer, Globe Staff | August 28, 2008
Police from Northern Ireland, who have had to quell religious conflicts in Belfast, have an intriguing suggestion for Boston's next big crowd event: a human rights lawyer should scrutinize the Police Department's security plans, watch the officers' behavior during the event, and then issue a public report on their performance.
Police Commissioner Edward F. Davis said he wanted the visiting officers' advice as the department continues to investigate what went wrong the night of June 18, when David Woodman, 22, stopped breathing after he was placed in police custody following the Celtics NBA championship celebration. Woodman died 11 days later.

Boston police paid $18,000 for the foreign officers' air travel, consulting fees, and hotel stay, said Elaine Driscoll, spokeswoman for the Boston Police Department.
That's what this tyranny cost you, Mass. taxpayers!!!
Nice that you could pick up the tab while this state falls apart!
During their six-day stay, the officers shadowed top commanders during the Caribbean American Carnival last Saturday, an annual event that draws hundreds of thousands of people and has been marred by shootings and stabbings.
But if you say illegals or anything, MSM brands you as racist!
These guys have to go through customs or...?
Duncan McCausland, assistant chief constable in Belfast and one of the visiting officers, said he and his colleague, Chief Inspector Andrew Galbraith, were impressed with the way city officials handled the carnival, which led to 23 arrests and confiscation of four guns.
And look what murder victim they forgot (although he got two days of press):
