Agency
LOS ANGELES PD
Rank
Police Officer (I–III)

All of the officer information displayed on this page was made public by the City of Los Angeles or the State of California in accordance with the California Public Records Act.

Division, Rank, Serial Number, Ethnicity, Gender, Height, Weight, and Year of Hire are from rosters that LAPD published in January 2023, August 2024, and April 2025. The data is only accurate as of LAPD's last publication of a roster listing the officer. In addition, LAPD has stated that height and weight are self-reported by officers at the time of their hire, so this information could be inaccurate either because an officer's height or weight changed over time or the officer lied about their height or weight.

Serial is a unique LAPD identifier assigned to each officer, typically not displayed on the officer. Badge is the number displayed on an officer's badge. These numbers can change when an officer receives a new badge due to a promotion or for other reasons, and an officer can be assigned a badge number that was previously assigned to another officer. The badge numbers listed here are from a roster LAPD published in September 2024 to comply with a lawsuit we filed in March 2024, so the numbers are only accurate as of that date. Email Address is pieced together from the standard LAPD email format of [Serial Number]@lapd.online.

Age is an approximation calculated using a roster that LAPD published in March 2022 listing the serial number, gender, race, and age of every officer employed by LAPD from 2014 to 2022. We used those ages as of March 2022 to approximate how old the officer is today.

Payments are from data listing the money paid to each city employee in that calendar year (January to December), published in March 2023, January 2024, and March 2025.

The LEFT LAPD ON date (for officers no longer employed by LAPD) is from a roster that LAPD published in March 2025 (due to another lawsuit we filed) listing all officers who left LAPD employment between August 2022 and April 2025. We only display officers who were employed by LAPD when this website was built in early 2023. Officers who left LAPD before then aren't shown for now.

As for DISCIPLINARY RECORDS, LAPD hides most of these from public view, publishing only a small number of records relating to instances where LAPD officials agreed either that extreme violence occurred or that an officer committed extreme misconduct. The records published by LAPD are not organized or cataloged, but you can search the documents to research an officer's role in the incident. Keep in mind that these records predominantly tell the police's side of the story and LAPD is notorious for denying or downplaying verified charges of misconduct.

Employment History is from records published by the California Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST). The data is combined from several datasets requested by the public and might not be fully up to date for every officer. LAPD and other POST member agencies must report certain changes in employment status to POST, including hiring, firing, and certain promotions. POST data doesn't define or explain these changes (for example, why an officer is "discharged" versus "involuntarily separated") and the labels might not be consistent. POST ID is the officer's unique statewide identifier used for POST reporting including if the officer changes employer. The name displayed next to POST ID is the name listed in POST data.
