Accountability for officer shootings
The identity of cops who shoot, beat and kill unarmed citizens should have to made public.
Why is this important?
Far too often officers are involved in shootings of unarmed citizens, and the public is told that the officer is on "admin leave" or "desk duty" but the identity of the officer is almost never made public. Instead, the media is allowed to vilify the deceased. If the identity of the officer involved in the incident is made public, it'll give the public a better shot at holding the officer and the police department, accountable...we ask for transparency with officer involved shootings!
