To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Colorado Open Records Act, I hereby request the following records:

2. the total number of civilian complaints alleging any form of law enforcement misconduct that were reported and the total number sustained, separated by year (for example, 8 complaints in 2016, 2 complaints sustained in 2017, 4 complaints in 2018, 1 complaint sustained in 2019, etc.)
3. the total number of civilian complaints alleging law enforcement use of excessive force that were reported and the total number sustained from 2016-2020, separated by year

5. the total number of civilian complaints alleging criminal conduct that were reported and the total number sustained from 2016-2020, separated by year

Note that my requests for civilian complaints are specifically for civilian complaints alleging police misconduct, please do not include complaints filed by one officer/the department against another officer.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 3 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Samuel Sinyangwe

Hi Robert,

Thank you for this information, do you know when the 2020 data will be available?

Thanks,
Sam

From: Aurora Police Department

Good afternoon,

When your request was processed I was told by the Crime Analyst that 2020 was not yet finished, but was being finalized. I was not given a timeframe as to when it would be ready. I just checked and found out it is still not finalized for released. If you would like to check back with me in another month I can check again.

Thank you,
