Veterans are now twice as likely as non-veterans to face incarceration. A 2017 study found that nearly a third reported having been arrested at least once in their lives. On average, veterans receive longer sentences than non-veterans, and they are more likely to have committed a violent sexual crime.

Boston police are accused of failing to arrest a 'serial ra**st' for years, despite having DNA evidence implicating him.

Law enforcement agencies across the country routinely withhold body camera footage, even in cases involving fatal police shootings, despite transparency laws requiring their disclosure. How? Because police officials in many jurisdictions are allowed to decide for themselves what is recorded, who can see it and when it will be published.
How Police Have Undermined the Promise of Body Cameras Hundreds of millions in taxpayer dollars have been spent on what was sold as a revolution in transparency and accountability. Instead, police departments routinely refuse to release footage — even when officers kill.
