Abstract
To inform current national discussions about the deaths of black men due to the police, we present novel data on long-term trends (1960-2010) in deaths due to legal intervention (i.e., deaths due to law enforcement actions) among US black and white men, by county income level. Among the three health studies investigating trends in this outcome, one focused on the total US population for 1962-1993, one documented a marked excess for young adult black as compared to white men for 1979-1997, and the third reported on systematic underreporting of such deaths, overall and by race/ethnicity and age, for 1976-1998; none included socioeconomic data.
