DESCRIPTION
The number of American cops charged in fatal shootings has hit a ten year hig, new research shows. The driving force has been the greater scrutiny over use of deadly force. Another factor has been the public outrage over the deaths of black men at the hands of police in New York, Missouri, and elsewhere, which has spurred prosecutions. Only a small percentage of police killings result in charges, lawyers and analysts say. This years number does not include the six Baltimore officers facing trial for the death of Freddie Gray. The 25-year-old black man died in April from a spinal injury after he was arrested and bundled in a transport van. Four of the officers face murder or manslaughter charges. James Pasco, executive director of the Fraternal Order of Police, the biggest police union, said officers face unjustified criticism as they carry out a crucial job.
