Evansville Police Training Under Scrutiny After Series of Fatal Incidents

Five deaths linked to police actions in Evansville raise questions about training and accountability.

The death of rookie Asson Hacker during a police academy drill, known as the 'Big Fight,' highlights aggressive training methods.
Four civilians died in separate incidents over 14 months in Evansville, with police actions being questioned in each case.
Authorities and the county coroner have consistently minimized the role of police force in these deaths, with no officers facing criminal charges.
Evansville's police training and oversight practices resemble those criticized by the U.S. Department of Justice in other cities.
Families of the deceased, including Hacker's, are seeking accountability and have filed lawsuits against the city and police department.
