Title: Birmingham Police Department, Alabama, Fallen Officers

URL: http://www.odmp.org/agency/329-birmingham-police-department-alabama/

Collection: Fire, Police, and Rescue

Description: "The Officer Down Memorial Page, Inc., (ODMP) is a non-profit organization dedicated to honoring America's fallen law enforcement officers. More than 26,000 officers have died in the line of duty in the United States since 1776 and ODMP is honored to preserve their memories and give friends, family, other officers, and citizens alike the opportunity to remember the fallen and honor their sacrifices." "In the early stages of development, the ODMP honored only law enforcement officers who had been killed or wounded in 1996 but quickly expanded to include officers killed in the line of duty dating back to 1990. Then, with the help of the National Law Enforcement Officer's Memorial Fund, Inc., the site gained access to information about thousands of heroes who had given their lives in the line of duty since the 1790s." "Today ODMP is the largest law enforcement memorial in the country, and our presence online enables supporters to learn about and honor fallen heroes regardless of their geographic location. We will continue to expand our offerings in constant service to our primary mission: honoring those officers who have died in the line of duty in the U.S."

Description: "Approximately 50 protestors gathered outside Birmingham City Hall during Tuesday morning’s City Council meeting, but most weren’t allowed inside due to concerns over social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic." "... as Mayor Randall Woodfin promised to 'soon share a closer look at the processes and procedures at the Birmingham Police Department, including training and disciplinary actions for officers, adjustments within Internal Affairs and more.'" But, the voices outside were calling for the City Council to defund the police. "Non-profit, non-partisan BirminghamWatch depends on donors to support its public service journalism."
