NYPD Officers and Complaint Counts Since 2000 from CCRB

A list of all New York Police Department officers reported to the Civilian Complaint Review Board, with counts of complaints received since 2000. The data is part of a public database of police misconduct records maintained by the CCRB, published by the City of New York.

• Includes records made public following the 2020 repeal of law 50-a, expanding data transparency.
