Over the past decade, the Flint Police Department has faced multiple lawsuits and allegations concerning officer misconduct, including racial discrimination, sexual harassment, and improper use of force. Specific statistics on the total number of disciplinary actions are not publicly disclosed. However, notable cases include a lawsuit by 17 current and former employees alleging race discrimination and sexual harassment, and a 2020 settlement involving the handcuffing of a 7-year-old boy with disabilities. The department has implemented policy changes in response to these incidents, such as revising juvenile offender policies to emphasize de-escalation and limiting police involvement in school discipline issues.
