Paliques Policiales es una serie periódica con la que proveemos a la ciudadanía un análisis breve, accesible y riguroso sobre un solo aspecto muy específico de la violencia policial. El primer Palique es sobre la práctica de intimidación que ha empleado la Policía de Puerto Rico al utilizar una cantidad excesiva de agentes para intervenir con las individuos durante las intervenciones por toque de queda en la pandemia del COVID-19. El análisis surge de los datos recopilados en nuestro proyecto ‘Evidencia la Violencia’, que documenta, cuenta y denuncia las intervenciones violentas, excesivas o discriminatorias por parte de la Policía de Puerto Rico, especialmente en el contexto de la pandemia del COVID-19 y el toque de queda que ya se ha extendido durante 7 meses. Queremos visibilizar de manera sencilla las realidades de la violencia de Estado, con el fin de debatir y considerar soluciones desde la política pública y con una perspectiva ciudadana y de derechos humanos.

Police Paliques is a periodic series with which we provide citizens with a brief, accessible and rigorous analysis of a single, very specific aspect of police violence. The first Palique is about the intimidation practice that the Puerto Rico Police has used by using an excessive number of agents to intervene with individuals during curfew interventions in the COVID-19 pandemic. The analysis arises from the data collected in our ‘Evidence of Violence’ project, which documents, accounts and denounces violent, excessive or discriminatory interventions by the Puerto Rico Police, especially in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and the curfew that has already been extended for 7 months. The second one is about the use of threats to intervene with citizens during the pandemic and the third one is about the Police Bureau’s use of the category “passion crime” to report domestic violence crimes.
