Disciplinary Actions Overview – Elizabethtown Police Department

Written by CBKN76

Between 2013 and 2021, the Elizabethtown Police Department reported four killings by police, a rate higher than 94% of U.S. police departments. In 2020, there were two civilian complaints of police misconduct, with 50% ruled in favor of civilians. Additionally, 78% of the 12,153 arrests made during this period were for low-level, non-violent offenses. These statistics indicate a need for ongoing review and potential reform within the department to address use-of-force incidents and community relations.

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.
