I have a poor grasp on the details around this shift, but likely due to society responding to increasing crime rates (which were in turn... due to lead or something?). Stuff like anti-drug laws, the Broken Windows policy and (ironically) the Biden Crime Law likely contributed.

I'm trying to google to see if this is true, and found this: according to https://www.jstor.org/stable/48503126?seq=3#metadata_info_tab_contents … there's actually been a really significant drop in deaths from police violence, both black and white, since 1970.
