Important Community Guidelines
It is strictly against our rules to:

Share private information such as personal emails, home addresses, or phone numbers
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.
