PAB Database

Accountability and transparency are important values not only for law enforcement, but also for civilian oversight of law enforcement. The UC Santa Cruz Police Accountability Board (PAB) Database will include the following information on all inquiries received by the PAB:

  • Case number
  • Report date
  • Method of filing
  • Complainant demographics (when provided)
  • Allegations
  • Case status
  • Outcome
  • When a formal investigation was charged:
    • Investigator’s findings
    • PAB’s findings and recommendations
    • Chief of Police’s responses to the PAB’s findings and recommendations

This database will be updated periodically as new inquiries are received and as cases move through our pipeline. Should you have any questions, or if you would like to provide feedback on the database, please contact us at pab@ucsc.edu.  

PAB Annual Report

The UC Santa Cruz Accountability Board shall issue an annual, public report detailing summary information and statistical data regarding the number of complaints filed, the type of complaints filed, analysis of trends or patterns, the ultimate disposition of the complaints (sustained, not sustained, exonerated or unfounded) and the percentage of complaints in which the recommendations of the PAB were either accepted, rejected or modified by the Chief of Police.

Once available, reports will be available to view on this page.
