A survey conducted by Datafolha reveals that Brazilians fear the security forces more than they trust them.
According to the data, 51% of respondents said they are more afraid of the police, compared to 46% who expressed greater trust.
The results show stability in public perception since April 2019, when the same question was posed to respondents.
Black Brazilians (59%)—who, according to statistics, are more vulnerable to state violence—reported greater fear of police work than white Brazilians (45%).
In São Paulo, the country’s most populous state, a wave of police abuse cases has been making headlines.
