Police Killings Drop in 2025, But Disparities Persist
Description
2025 sees a dip in police killings in the US, with 1,314 deaths recorded, down from a record high in 2024. Experts attribute this to officer shortages, de-escalation training, and stricter use-of-force rules. However, policing experts caution that one good year doesnt make a trend. Racial disparities persist, with Black Americans killed at more than twice the rate of whites. Despite data gaps, this decline fuels the conversation on smarter policing.
