New Project Creates Free Database of Police Misconduct Available to Public

View descriptionShare

Today is a milestone for police accountability in California. Anyone can now look up incidents of serious use of force and police misconduct in the state in a new free database. It makes once confidential records from about 12,000 cases gathered from the state's nearly 700 law enforcement and oversight agencies publicly available. It was seven years in the making and brought together teams of journalists, data scientists, and advocates from across California. I'm joined by two founders of the project, KQED Criminal Justice Correspondent Sukey Lewis and Lisa Pickoff-White, the project's Director of Research out of Berkeley's Investigative Reporting Program.
