Complaints filed against 19.8% of Montgomery County officers last year, police data show

Complaints were filed against 19.8% of Montgomery County police officers last year—234 out of a force of 1,181, according to a report from the department. The first-of-its-kind summary was discussed at a public hearing with the County Council on Tuesday afternoon. But members of the council’s public safety committee and an advocacy group want more information, saying the report doesn’t show the full story.
