Should the city release the name of a police officer who kills someone in the line of duty?

"Yes. I can see both sides of the story, but I think we need transparen-cy, consider-ing all the killings that are happening. It seems like every other day, you turn on the news and somebody has died [due to police], for no reason."

"Yes. I’m not a big fan of cops. If they kill someone, the public has a right to know their identity. It’s a safety issue for everyone. People who aren’t straight, white, cisgendger males are at risk for police violence."

"First, just release the officer’s name to the victim’s immediate family. They’re grieving and have a right to know what happened. But you also have to consider the [privacy] rights of the officer. If the family wants to publicize the officer’s name on their own, they should seek legal counsel before doing so."

"Yes. They should be held accountable. Cops should be held to the same standards as normal civilians. Regardless of whether the shooting was justified, the public has a right to know their names."
