What this grade can and can't tell you

  • The underlying data is self-reported by agencies, one yearly snapshot at a time.
  • Allegations are not findings; many complaints end unfounded, exonerated, or not sustained.
  • There is no arrest, population, or call-volume denominator in this data, so nothing here is a per-capita misconduct rate.
  • A higher internal affairs volume is ambiguous: it can indicate more misconduct, or a more robust oversight and reporting culture. The grade weighs it anyway, because volume is what the record offers; that choice is published, not hidden.
  • The grade is one lens. Weights are a transparent editorial choice on the methodology page, and the records are always one click away.

East Windsor Township Police Department receives a grade of C on this site, meaning its reported internal affairs volume and discipline severity place it in the 54th percentile of its peer group (municipal police agencies, 1-14 officers). The grade is analysis, not an official rating, and a higher volume can reflect more misconduct or a stronger reporting culture.
How is the report-card grade calculated?
The grade combines three components, each ranked within a peer group of the same agency type and size: internal affairs volume per officer (40%), sanction-weighted discipline severity (40%), and mean allegation severity (20%). The combined standing is re-ranked among peers, and the grade is the fifth of the peer group it falls in. Full method and weights are on the methodology page.
