The circumstances of his death sparked protest in the lower Hudson Valley. But, in a long-awaited report on how often New York police officers use force, Flowers death was absent from the fatality column.  In fact, Flowers’ case is one of a number of high-profile incidents in which police used force that were not reported by local police agencies to the state Division of Criminal Justice Services.
