    Former Deputy Zachary Wester was convicted in July 2021 for planting drugs on individuals during traffic stops. He faced nearly 70 charges, including violations of Florida’s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization Act (RICO). In November 2024, a three-judge panel overturned his RICO conviction but upheld other convictions, leading to a resentencing hearing. Wester was sentenced to 12.5 years in prison and is currently held in a Colorado facility.

Welcome to Police Accountability Database

Our Mission

We're building a comprehensive database of police interactions to promote accountability and transparency in law enforcement.

How You Can Participate

  • View the Blog: Read about documented police interactions
  • Share Your Experience: Submit your own police interaction story
  • Browse the Forums: Check if your local law enforcement has been documented

Important Community Guidelines

It is strictly against our rules to:

  • Make threats of any kind
  • 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.
