Unidentified: Officers names are unknown in about one-third of all police shootings in Oklahoma

Little is known about how often law enforcement agencies disclose the names of their officers following a shooting, but in 2016 the Washington Post reported that about 1 in 5 agencies nationwide that year had declined requests for officer identities. Officers in Oklahoma last year went unidentified in about one-third of all police shootings.
