    In April 2004, Deputy David Zander, along with Deputy David Hackman, allegedly beat 71-year-old Jose Jimenez during an arrest, resulting in broken ribs. Jimenez filed a civil rights lawsuit against Zander, Hackman, Sheriff Curtis Hill, and San Benito County. In June 2021, Zander was terminated from the department for multiple allegations, including dishonesty and policy violations related to handling confidential informants. However, in July 2022, an arbitrator reinstated Zander with full back pay and seniority, finding that the charges were unsubstantiated.

Welcome to Police Accountability Database

Our Mission

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

How You Can Participate

  • View the Blog: Read about documented police interactions
  • Share Your Experience: Submit your own police interaction story
  • Browse the Forums: Check if your local law enforcement has been documented

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.
