Read the letter sent by the Assn. for Los Angeles Deputy Sheriffs to Sheriff Jim McDonnell about releasing more force data
A letter from the Assn. for Los Angeles Deputy Sheriffs to Sheriff Jim McDonnell on May 30, 2017 says the department should reveal how many times deputies could have lawfully used force but refrained from doing so, as well as how many times deputies are assaulted or handle suspects who resist arrest or disobey orders. The information would better contextualize deputies’ use of force, the union says.
