“In the introduction we mentioned that there were around 18,000 law enforcement agencies in the United States. Three-quarters of America’s 12,300 local police departments employ 24 or fewer officers; 48% employ fewer than 10 officers, and, in 2015, 5% employed a single officer.”

“Since 2015, the media and the public have paid more attention than ever before to the use of deadly force by American police officers. That’s a great thing. The more questions the public asks, the more the public demands police produce believable, transparent evidence that they are treating people fairly, the better off our nation will become. You will see how true this is throughout this book, but until 2015, not many Americans had noticed that the data gathering done by the government on this subject was, to put it mildly, really bad.”

“It also noted that the test for reasonableness … “is not capable of precise definition or mechanical application,” and therefore the test’s “proper application requires careful attention to the facts and circumstances of each particular case.”
