America Strikes Again... Dozens were fatally shot by officers across the United States in the month of April alone and although every case is different, the list of names is dispiriting.  These are just a few: Daunte Wright - a 20-year-old man from Brooklyn Center, MN Ma'kiah Bryant - A 16-year-old girl in Columbus, Ohio. Anthony Brown, Jr. - A 42-year-old man in eastern North Carolina.

The Missin Peace™ Database stores and reports on information gathered from formal citizen complaints against law enforcement officers nationwide. The data collected is self-reported and includes complaints against local, state, and federal law enforcement officers in the United States. The information collected by this database is intended as a resource for transparency and public accountability between citizens, law enforcement agencies, and politicians. Why Missin Peace Established in 2017, The Missin Peace™ Database is an essential empowerment tool for communities and justice seekers making them the keeper of their own stories and manager of their own unbiased and unmanipulated records.   We aggregate formal police complaints from the public (records often buried in internal databases) and make them accessible to investigative journalists, hiring managers, and attorneys in the pursuit of justice for all. We believe there is no police reform without the voice of the people. Recent reports and news stories of police misconduct and brutality have revealed that many of these cases involve law enforcement officers with numerous complaints in their files unavailable to the public.
