SPOKANE, Wash. — You may have heard the startling statistic: activists for police accountability have said that the Spokane Police Department is the third-deadliest police force in the entire United States. 
But where does that figure even come from and is it accurate?
The statistic comes from a website called Mapping Police Violence. The site compiled data on people killed by police across America's 100 largest cities, between 2013 and 2020.
Spokane had 17, an average of 2.125 police killings per year during that span.
