Police reports often account for a sequence of events that video\/forensic evidence later disproves or challenges. In many cases, these initial police reports allow officers to completely escape accountability. This pattern is seen in full-force in Omaha, with the murder of Zachary Bear Heels in 2017, when he was handcuffed, tazed 12+ times, and punched repeatedly in the head by four OPD officers, who were later cleared of all charges related to his death that night. It is seen in the murders and wrongful deaths of Kenneth Jones and others. It is seen in the daily lives and encounters of the citizens within these communities of Omaha and Lincoln.<\/span><\/p>

It is within this context that the Omaha-Lincoln People’s Archive of Police Violence was established.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
