Center for Police Equity Report and Response
On July 27, 2021, the Sacramento Police Department (SPD) released a report compiled by the Center for Policing Equity (CPE). CPE spent the prior year analyzing SPD data covering vehicle stops, pedestrian stops, and uses of force that occurred from 2014 through 2019. The department requested CPE analyze this data to identify any patterns in policing throughout the city.
A Message from Chief Hahn:
“We thank the Center for Policing Equity for their work on this data. Our department is a leader in policing reform, and using these reports to better understand the communities we serve will help our entire City appreciate the work that must be put in to make Sacramento a safe and vibrant city for all,” said Sacramento Police Chief Daniel Hahn.
