In a report released on Wednesday, the IOPC highlighted a racial disparity in the use of tasers by British police officers on suspects, calling for clearer guidance and improvements in training to prevent the force from “eroding public confidence.”
The IOPC examined some of the most serious cases of taser use by UK police between 2015 and 2020, finding that black people were more likely to be subjected to taser use by cops for a prolonged period of time than their white counterparts.
