Risk of mortality by police for those with disabilities.
​

In this project, which I'm working on in collaboration with Dr. Frank Edwards, we're using the Fatal Encounters data to explore the risk of mortality by police for those with disabilities. We're employing demographic techniques, including life table analysis, to calculate life time risks of police by mortality for various groups. We are currently completing the coding of the data.
