    That would be interesting. I don’t believe the data exists. Just need a definition of bully, a list of kids who are bullies (which would be difficult given they are children and that has ethical issues), and a follow up to see if they went to cop school, became cops, career length, etc.

    The stats would be easy to do.

    I imagine asking a cop would be a bad idea (might go to jail for example), but maybe their former teachers or classmates could work? I’m just yapping at this point lol

      Perhaps psychological records/background checks to determine if they were bullies? Those should also be a thing before someone becomes a cop.
