LVMPD’s commitment to the public is to be both transparent and accountable regarding our use of deadly force incidents involving employees. For each fatal use of deadly force incident that has not been through the Coroner’s Inquest process, we have made available to you three reports. Beginning with the first fatal use of deadly force in December of 2010 and moving forward chronologically, you will be able to view the following documents:

District Attorney’s (DA) Decision Letter: As the District Attorney issues his decisions; LVMPD will post them in their entirety on the Office of Internal Oversight webpage.

Force Investigation Team (FIT) Report: The FIT Report contains all the evidence found by the investigating FIT detectives. These reports will be made available to you in their entirety with the exception of any information that is deemed confidential in nature.

Office of Internal Oversight (OIO) Review: The Office of Internal Oversight Review will be available to our community and will consist of an internal review that covers key conclusions and outcomes of each use of deadly force incident through the Critical Incident Review Process. The review may also include any changes or additions that were made to policy, procedure, tactics or training if it was necessary to do so as a result of each use of deadly force.

LVMPD began posting videos related to a categorical use of deadly force in mid-2013. Should a video or document not be available for a specific event listed below, the standard link will have "NA" (not available) as part of the title.
