OJB also would like to thank the Lucy Parsons Lab (@lucyparsonslabs) and Open Oversight (@OpenOversight) for laying the groundwork for this tool and for all of the guidance and support they have provided along the way,
Open Justice Baltimore officially announces the launch of BPD Watch: an open-to-the-public interactive database of Baltimore Police Department officers. BPD Watch relies on *publicly available data* and verified crowd-sourced information.

Point us to Oakland and Berkeley police disciplinary records that *you've* received, and we'll link out to them from the relevant police officer profiles.

TODAY, @Chicago_Police got ordered through a #FOIA request to produce all complaint investigation files from 1967-2015. #transparency Given that the City of Chicago has spent millions in taxpayer dollars to keep such files secret, this is a significant development.
Looks like a bunch of Contra Costa police unions are now challenging retroactivity portion of the new CA police transparency law. We got filings like this from Richmond, Antioch and Concord in response to pub records requests.
While working on obtaining a NYPD roster via FOIL, we're compiling info like shield numbers and mentions in the news (ie instances of misconduct) for open source police database @OpenOversight *now*—through a public Google spreadsheet

"Closing Rikers and opening 4 new jails isnt a solution or improvement. It's just moving people from one cage to another. It'll always be a cage and it's still modern day slavery." #NoNewJailsNYC#CloseRikersNOW@PeoplesForumNYC
Good morning, New York City! Did you know you can help build a database of the US' biggest police force by submitting photographs of NYPD officers in uniform? ✨openoversight.com/submit/departm…
