Some people may believe that police brutality may happen once in a blue moon. They are not the only one because I also believed that police brutality happened once in a while because I always focused on just New York not the other 49 states that we have in our country. After overviewing some statistical information police brutality and crime happens almost everyday. It's an on going epidemic sort of like a drug. Everyday a police officer is sucked into the dirty life of becoming a dirty cop as they are called. In New York City, a study undertaken by the Civilian Complaint Review Board found that more than 50 percent of civilian complaints were filed against officers who graduated from the Police Academy in 1990, 1991 and 1993. Similarly, officers who had graduated from the academy 15 years earlier frequently were the targets of allegations. The vast majority of complaints originate in high-crime areas in which the population primarily comprises minorities.
