Erik Andrade – Milwaukee Police Department

Officer Erik Andrade was terminated in September 2018 for violating the department’s social media policy. He posted racially derogatory comments and mocked NBA player Sterling Brown, who was subjected to excessive force by other officers in January 2018. Andrade’s posts undermined his credibility and ability to testify in court. Brown filed a civil rights lawsuit against the city, citing Andrade’s social media activity as evidence of a culture of misconduct within the department.

Important Community Guidelines

It is strictly against our rules to:

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.
