TEXT I

“Through the Law Enforcement Officers Killed and Assaulted (LEOKA) Data Collection, the FBI provides data and training that helps keep law enforcement officers safe as they protect the nation’s communities. The goal is to provide relevant, high quality, potentially lifesaving information to law enforcement agencies focusing on why an incident occurred, as opposed to what occurred during the incident, with the hope of preventing future incidents. The data collected is analyzed by the LEOKA team and the results are incorporated into the officer safety awareness training the FBI provides for partner agencies.

LEOKA’S Three-Tier Approach

LEOKA has a three-tier approach in order to fulfill its mission and promote officer safety awareness to the law enforcement community nationwide:

▪ Data collection: Data on line-of-duty deaths and assaults are collected from participating agencies across the country through the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program, and the recent expansion of the data collection methods are providing even more facts that can be studied by experts and officer safety trainers in order to tailor training to real world circumstances. The data are also published annually in the Bureau’s Law Enforcement Officers Killed and Assaulted report.

▪ Research: Over the years, researchers led by the LEOKA Data Collection have been conducting indepth research using UCR data collected regarding incidents in which officers are killed or assaulted. The published research gives officers a sharper understanding of what types of scenarios and circumstances have resulted in fatalities and assaults. These articles and publications also contain information obtained through extensive interviews with officers and offenders involved in critical incidents to develop lessons learned, trends and curriculum development for the FBI’s Officer Safety Awareness Training (OSAT).

▪ Training: The objective of the Bureau’s OSAT, which has been provided to thousands of our law enforcement partners in the U.S. and abroad, is to assist law enforcement managers, trainers, and personnel with identifying issues and circumstances that may contribute to officer deaths and assaults and help prevent them. Data has shown an increase in ambushes on our nation’s law enforcement officers. As a result, LEOKA trainers are studying the data with the purpose of shaping future training to help reverse this trend with information and education.

LEOKA Criteria

The data collected under the auspices of the LEOKA Data Collection involves law enforcement officers who meet a certain set of criteria established by the FBI.

General Criteria

The publishable data pertains to felonious deaths, accidental deaths, and assaults of duly sworn city, university and college, county, state, tribal, and federal law enforcement officers who, at the time of the incident, met the following criteria:

▪ Wore/carried a badge (ordinarily)

▪ Carried a firearm (ordinarily)

▪ Were duly sworn and had full arrest powers

▪ Were members of a law enforcement agency

▪ Were acting in an official capacity, whether on or off duty, at the time of the incident

▪ If killed, the deaths were directly related to the injuries received during the incidentes.”

Publisher cancels horror novel's release over AI claims

By Paul Glynn

Shy Girl was originally self-published in February 2025, then got a full UK release in
November.
The US release of a horror novel has been cancelled by its publisher over concerns that AI
was used to help write it.
Shy Girl by US author Mia Ballard had been scheduled for publication in the US next month,
but that will no longer go ahead, publisher Hachette said. The UK version, which was released in
November, will also be discontinued.
A spokesperson for Hachette told BBC News the company “remains committed to protecting
original creative expression and storytelling”.
Ballard, who sold almost 2,000 copies of the book in the UK, has denied using AI to write
the book—telling the New York Times an acquaintance she hired to edit the original self-published
version of the novel had used AI.
“This controversy has changed my life in many ways and my mental health is at an all time
low and my name is ruined for something I didn't even personally do,” she said, noting she was
pursuing legal action.
The New York Times, which first reported the story, said it “appears to be the first
commercial novel from a major publishing house to be pulled over evidence of AI use”.
The publisher said: “Hachette remains committed to protecting original creative expression
and storytelling”.
“Orbit (in the US) will not publish Shy Girl, and Wildfire (in the UK) have decided to no
longer continue publishing their edition,” it added, referring to its imprints.
Originally self-published last February, Shy Girl was described in its promotional material
as a “buzzy¹ BookTok sensation” and “a harrowing tale of survival and revenge” and well as
being “bloody and unapologetic”.
However, one reviewer on the GoodReads website claimed the book appeared to be “written
by ChatGPT”, while another noted the “bizarre formatting, typos and repetitive turns of phrase”.
BBC News has approached Ballard for further comment.

¹Buzzy (adj.): Something that is buzzy is getting a lot of attention and excitement, especially online. People are talking about it a lot, and it is popular right now.
