    On July 20, 2019, Officer Gorny was driving approximately 90 mph while responding to a reckless driver call. He ran a red light and collided with Erica Flores’ vehicle, resulting in her death. Gorny intermittently used his lights and siren prior to the crash. A grand jury declined to indict him, but Police Chief Scott Ruszkowski recommended his termination. The Board of Public Safety fired Gorny in November 2019 after a disciplinary hearing. ([apnews.com](https://apnews.com/general-news-b2971a11d3be410b9f007b752836639f?utm_source=openai))

Our Mission

We're building a comprehensive database of police interactions to promote accountability and transparency in law enforcement.

How You Can Participate

Important Community Guidelines

It is strictly against our rules to:

  • Make threats of any kind
  • Share private information such as personal emails, home addresses, or phone numbers

Violation of these rules will result in immediate content removal and possible account suspension.

Why This Matters

By organizing this data, we can potentially demonstrate when officers were previously aware of laws they later claim ignorance of, challenging qualified immunity defenses and promoting accountability.
