Nassau County Police Department

USE OF FORCE DATA

Between July 2014 and December 2015, the Nassau County Police Department filed 77 Use of Force reports. Sixty-seven of 77 reports, or 87% of reports, indicated that the subject of the use of force was injured or required medical attention.

Of those against whom force was used, 94% were men, 70% were aged 35 or under, and 70% were people of color.

The department redacted all the identifying information about officers involved in use of force incidents but noticeably left all the names, addresses, and dates of birth of the civilians subject to those uses of force. We chose not to upload these reports to respect their privacy.
