Where can you find the statistics on a police officers record concerning arrests on a certain crime?

I want to know if a police officer stops more whites then blacks, for wandering.

Where can you find the statistics on a police officers record concerning arrests on a certain crime?

It is important to remember when reviewing this information that there is no uniform for reporting crimes, each dept has their own guidelines. In addition, not all depts report every crime. Therefore, the statistics are not concrete, but only an estimate.





Hope this helps.
Reply:see the ACLU website. i do not know about wandering specifcally but do know that in general blacks are stopped and ticketed more often than whites. I think 50 percent of prison population is black , 25 white and 25 hispanic ?
Reply:although stereotyping is not good guidelines to follow, statisitics are not kept or calculated.


most citizens are glad that all thugs, regardless of race are investigated as to their purpose.


rule of thumb: students, working persons, are usually in bed by 10pm. most "night creepers" are up to no good. they keep pawnshops in business.
Reply:let me guess, you think the officer was racial profiling.





first, not all police officers are racist, matter of fact, 99 percent are not, but they are professional (most of them) and I hope your not getting that confused with racisim...





as far as accuratwe statistics, if you feel you are being targeted, contact the officers supervisor, if that does not help, contact the supervisor's supervisor....if in the end you dont get the answer you want, then the answer you want is not the answer your ever going to get, and you probably just "think" your being targeted, when your not!
Reply:it will take a court order to obtain a officers personell record
