KEEP OFFICERS’ DISCIPLINARY HISTORY ACCESSIBLE TO POLICE DEPARTMENTS AND THE PUBLIC
Retain and make publicly available crime clearance data, particularly data on crime “cleared by exceptional means,” and remove contract provisions, local and state policies, and provisions in state Law Enforcement Officers’ Bills of Rights laws that allow police officers to:
- Expunge or destroy records of past misconduct (both sustained and unsustained) from their disciplinary file
- Prevent their disciplinary records from being released to the public via a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request
