The Mass Police Reform Timeline compiled by Voices of Liberation’s own Jacob Leidolf provides a context and history for current conversations and movement for police reform and re-imagining and to “show receipts” for the failure to implement meaningful reform despite decades of broad based support for basic measures of accountability. The timeline shows:
- Local incidents of Police use of excessive force up to and including the shooting and killing of civilians and prominent cases of police misconduct and criminality
- Recommendations, reports and findings issued by community organizations, oversight bodies, commissions and professional law enforcement groups
- Changing of leadership including elected officials and police commissioners / administrations and administrative actions
- Original and investigative reporting from local and national news organizations and journalists
- Proposed and enacted legislative and policy changes aimed at police reform, accountability and data collection
