§ 137.674 Use of force data analysis; report to legislature

This rule tells a state agency, the Oregon Criminal Justice Commission, to study information about police use of force. That information comes from a national database run by the FBI, which tracks incidents where officers use force during their jobs.

Each year, the Commission has to look at this data and write a report about what it finds. The Commission then sends this report to a committee in the Oregon Legislature. This helps lawmakers understand patterns in police use of force across the country and in Oregon, so they can make informed decisions about laws and policies.

This rule doesn't create new rights for people involved in criminal cases. Instead, it sets up a system for tracking and reporting information to help state lawmakers stay informed about use-of-force trends.
