The DOJ confirmed that the Trump administration shut down a nationwide database tracking officers who abused their power. The database, created after George Floyd’s 2020 death, aimed to prevent corrupt officers from transferring to new departments. Floyd died after officer Derek Chauvin kneeled on his neck for over nine minutes, sparking global protests against police brutality. Chauvin was later convicted and sentenced to 22 years. Trump initially proposed the database, and Biden implemented it via executive order in 2022. However, Trump revoked it upon returning to office, dismantling the National Law Enforcement Accountability Database.
