In July 2018, Detective Brandon Potts fatally shot unarmed 26-year-old Daniel Fuller during an arrest attempt. Potts’ service weapon discharged during a physical altercation, resulting in Fuller’s death. The incident led to public protests and scrutiny. Potts was placed on paid administrative leave and subsequently terminated in February 2019. He filed a wrongful termination lawsuit against the city, which was dismissed by the North Dakota Supreme Court in January 2021, affirming that his termination was lawful.

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.
