Hello,

Thank you for sending this information over, I apologize for my delayed response. I do not see any use of force data for 2015 and 2016, would it be possible to send that over? Additionally, is there are further complaints data available? I have only received biased policing complaints for 2013 and 2016, nothing for the other years or other complaint categories.

Let me know.

Thanks,
Sam
