đź’¨ Abstract

An audit in Maryland revealed that at least 36 deaths of individuals in police custody were misclassified and should have been labeled as homicides. This finding, reported by the Associated Press on May 15, 2025, highlights significant discrepancies in how law enforcement-related deaths are documented. Moreover, there is a note regarding legal and regional restrictions on the reuse and distribution of the material. Copyrights are claimed by The Associated Press and WTOP.
