He was instrumental in positioning the LAPD as a model for departments across the country.

He also expanded the Mental Evaluation Unit (MEU)\, increasing the number of available teams to respond to calls in the field\, helping to reduce the use of force whenever possible. Through his leadership\, he emphasized public safety through thoughtful\, measured actions.\n\n\n\nChief McDonnell's vision for the Los Angeles Police Department focuses on officer morale and wellness\, recruitment and retention\, accountability and transparency\, and crime reduction. He is dedicated to continuing the Department's mission of reducing the fear and incidence of crime and enhancing public safety throughout Los Angeles.\n The Los Angeles Police Department is one of the largest and most innovative law enforcement agencies in the world. It is responsible for providing police service to an area encompassing 468 square miles and 21 community areas\, representing approximately over 4 million residents as of 2023.
