SB 1421 Use of Force
SB 1421 has made available for public inspection use of force incidents resulting in death or great bodily injury.
Defining “Great Bodily Injury” is left to each agency with the assistance of the local attorney/counsel to interpret and report based on their understanding of the law. Because the definition of Great Bodily Injury is not definitive, the resulting reporting by agencies may not be the same.
For example, the LBPD considers and categorizes a broken finger as a use of force resulting in great bodily injury, while other agencies may not, further increasing the number of incidents reported by the LBPD.
Until the Legislature defines “great bodily injury,” LBPD will release incidents where an officer’s UOF resulted in one or more of the following injuries:
- Injuries requiring 10 or more sutures and/or staples
- Broken bones
- All head injuries
- Any injury deemed as serious. “Serious bodily injury” means injuries that involve a substantial risk of death, unconsciousness, protracted and obvious disfigurement, or protracted loss or impartment of the function of a bodily member or organ. (Gov. Code § 12525.2(d))
