How often do law enforcement officers actually use force?

After digging into the data, it turns out violent encounters are incredibly rare. 

Over a million 911 calls, only 0.1% involve ANY use of force.

This episode debunks common myths about police use of force, highlighting the gap between public perception and reality. Sean and Jason analyze survey data, media reports, and real-world cases to clarify misconceptions and discuss the impact on law enforcement and community trust.

And just for fun, Sean obliterates the Washington Post “fatal force” database.
