I frimly believe that the Uniform Crime Reporting Statistics ought to be made mandatory by law

with stiff penalties for failing to report timely and accurate (honest) reports for all arrests.
I did not know until recently that reporting to this FBI database was voluntary. Making it mandatory by law with stiff penalties and a system for monitoring it accurately would go a long way to curbing police misbehavior I believe. Patterns of police brutality collectively and individually would emerge automatically and statistics on crime ridden areas would be more accurate and a resource for allocation allocation of law enforcement resources.
