Fact: Several high-profile incidents where complaints of the use of excessive force against individuals and subsequent backlash in the form of civil unrest are resulting in a loss of trust, lawsuits, and loss of life.

The evidence is undeniable. Officer misconduct is a real issue in every jurisdiction across the nation.
