Disciplinary Actions Overview – Bettendorf Police Department

Written by CBKN76

Comprehensive statistics about agency-wide disciplinary actions, patterns of misconduct, use-of-force incidents, and any department-wide corruption or scandals are not readily available in the public domain. The Bettendorf Police Department does not publish detailed reports on these matters. However, Iowa law mandates that law enforcement agencies maintain records of complaints, disciplinary actions, and use-of-force incidents, which are reported annually to the Iowa Department of Public Safety. Individuals seeking specific information may need to file a public records request with the department or consult the Iowa Online Uniform Crime Report (IOUCR) system for available data.

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.
