An Associated Press review of data shows agencies have received hundreds of complaints of bias over the past 10 years, but records available to the public show only two alleging racial bias resulted in consequences for officers.

Representatives of law enforcement say police investigators that look into bias complaints receive specialized training and that proving bias is extremely difficult.
