Cop the Data
In an effort to foster transparency, ACT 4 SA has created the Texas Officer Suspension Dashboard.
This dashboard houses a wealth of suspension and firings data that shed light on the conduct of officers from San Antonio Police Department (SAPD), Bexar County Sheriff’s Office (BCSO) and San Marcos Police Department (SMPD). Not only does this tool serve as a community “watchdog” for officer behavior, but it also aims to hold officers accountable, deter misconduct, and assist in bettering hiring decisions. Furthermore, they help highlight disciplinary gaps in law enforcement contracts and inform training practices across various crucial areas such as de-escalation and mental health. Please note that while we strive to update our databases regularly, some suspensions may not be represented due to limitations in the data we receive.
how to use the dashboard
Unveil the disciplinary history of San Antonio Police, Bexar County Sheriffs, and San Marcos Police Department officers. The dashboard, updated frequently with suspension and arbitration data from 2010-2023, serves as a powerful resource for understanding patterns of misconduct and informing law enforcement practices. You can search by officer name, incident type, disciplinary outcomes, or view indefinite suspension data. We continue to work tirelessly to include other local departments for a broader representation.
