Police-perpetrated killings, while a subject of significant controversy and debate, represent a widespread issue that is often overlooked or minimized in public discourse. This phenomenon occurs when law enforcement officers use lethal force, resulting in the death of an individual. These incidents have sparked outrage, protests, and a demand for justice in many communities around the world, yet they are frequently downplayed or dismissed by broader society.

One of the key reasons why police-perpetrated killings are overlooked is the societal trust placed in law enforcement as protectors of public safety. Police officers are often seen as upholders of the law, charged with maintaining order and ensuring the safety of citizens. This perception can lead to a reluctance to critically examine instances where police officers misuse their power or resort to excessive force. Consequently, narratives that justify or excuse such violence—such as the notion that the victim was resisting arrest or posed an immediate threat—can dominate the conversation, overshadowing calls for accountability and reform.
