Trump deletes nationwide database on police misconduct founded after George Floyd murder

The article from MSN, originally published by CNN, discusses how former President Donald Trump's administration deleted a nationwide database on police misconduct that was established after the murder of George Floyd in 2020. This database, which was part of the National Decertification Index, was intended to track officers who had been fired or had their certifications revoked due to misconduct, thereby preventing them from being rehired by other police departments. The deletion occurred in January 2021, just before President Joe Biden took office. The removal of this database has raised concerns about transparency and accountability in law enforcement, as it was seen as a critical tool for ensuring that officers with a history of misconduct could not simply move to another jurisdiction and continue their careers. The Biden administration has since been working to restore and expand this database, highlighting its importance in police reform efforts.
