WASHINGTON, Jan. 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The number of law enforcement professionals nationwide who died in the line of duty in 2022 decreased a dramatic 61% over the previous year, according to preliminary data provided by the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund (NLEOMF), the leading authority on officer fatalities. The decrease is driven almost entirely by substantial reductions in Covid-19 related deaths. As reported in their official 2022 End-of-Year Preliminary Law Enforcement Officers Fatalities Report, the NLEOMF data shows that 226 federal, state, county, municipal, military, tribal, and campus officers have died in the line of duty in 2022, representing a 61% decrease compared to the 586 officers who died in the line of duty in 2021.

Key Points: 
  • The National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund releases 2022 year-end fatalities report depicting that while overall line-of-duty deaths are dramatically down, firearms deaths mirror 2021 and remain significantly higher than the average of firearms-related fatalities in the previous decade.
  • NLEOMF releases 2022 law enforcement fatality report; line of duty deaths down, firearms deaths significantly higher
    "While overall line-of-duty deaths are trending down," said National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund CEO Marcia Ferranto, "the continuing trend of greater-than-average firearms-related deaths continues to be a serious concern.
  • NLEOMF will host a Law Enforcement Firearms Survival Summit on Tuesday, January 31, 2023, at the National Law Enforcement Museum.
