Building a Community of Justice

Exposing Misconduct, Championing Transparency We equip defenders with tools to fight police misconduct.

NACDL was integral to the Police Records Access Project ( https://clean.latimes.com/) , a new database that makes public records of use of force and misconduct by California law enforcement officers. This searchable database includes records from nearly 12,000 cases. This tool expands public access to internal affairs records that disclose how law enforcement agencies throughout the state handle misconduct allegations as well as uses of police force that result in death or severe injury. NACDL continues to work on this project with the UC Berkeley Journalism’s Investigative Reporting Program (IRP), the Berkeley Institute for Data Science (BIDS), ACLU of Southern California, the Innocence Project, Stanford University’s Big Local News, and other partners.
