Aurora Sentinel: A private firm monitoring the City of Aurora’s compliance with public safety reforms has again expressed concerns about the police department’s inability to produce data on uses of force and the demographics of people contacted by police, which is more than a year overdue.

“During this reporting period, as noted during the last reporting period, no one in APD has the ability to easily access the data to analyze issues, trends, patterns, or practices,” Florida-based risk management firm IntegrAssure said in its October report. “APD does not have an accurate or reliable way of measuring (the) number and type of use of force incidents and community and officer complaints due to the shortcomings of their current system.”

The document is the fifth regular report evaluating the police department’s compliance with the consent decree agreement between Aurora and the Colorado Attorney General’s Office, which IntegrAssure was hired to oversee in February 2022.
