    "note": "The redesigned pilot's media review identified 1,348 potential arrest-related deaths in ten months (about 135 a month) and estimated about 1,900 for the full year, roughly double the old program's annual counts. Of the 425 deaths confirmed in the June-August 2015 quarter, 64 percent were classified as homicide; arrest-related deaths also include suicides and accidents, so this figure is broader than the civilian trackers' scope.",
