We collect, maintain, and publish an extensive, independent database of police misconduct, police disciplinary proceedings, and police officer criminality across England and Wales.
Misconduct999 operates entirely independently of police forces, government departments, policing bodies, political organisations and public authorities.
Drawing together information from all 43 territorial police forces, our database consolidates hearing notices, misconduct outcomes, disciplinary records, criminal proceedings, and related information into a single searchable resource.
Unlike many official publications, which often present information as standalone reports, annual statistics, or individual case announcements, our approach focuses on preserving, structuring, and cross-referencing data so that trends, patterns, and comparisons can be identified over time.
This enables users to examine misconduct by force, rank, hearing type, allegation type, outcome, sanction, transparency measures and other key data points. Historical information is retained wherever possible, allowing analysis that may not be possible using information available from individual force websites alone.
Our datasets are used to support journalism, research, public scrutiny and a wider understanding of how the police misconduct system operates across England and Wales.
