OF THE 139 people killed by police in 115 separate incidents over the past two years and five months, only five cases have been closed by the Police Complaints Authority (PCA).
This year, there have been 29 police-involved shootings which have resulted in the death of 37 people.
Even more concerning than the rise in police-involved killings is the revelation by the PCA’s director, David West, that the organisation has never received a single piece of body camera footage from the police.
