Good afternoon,
As to you first request: While we maintain a Brady list, our list consists of pending investigations known to the officers as well as the pending charges against the officers, which are considered Brady by law. See attached.
As to your second request: We do not track such information, as such we have no responsive public records.
Lastly, as an aside, unlike other jurisdictions, in Florida pursuant to Chapter 119, F.S., closed police disciplinary investigative files are a matter of public record and are available from individual employing police agencies.
