How to File Complaints against the Louisville Metro Police Department


OpenPolice.org is an independent project developed by Flex Your Rights, a 501(c)(3) educational nonprofit.

We recommend you start by preparing a transparent misconduct report on OpenPolice.org. Then use the information below to submit a formal complaint to the Citizens Commission on Police Accountability.
