Taken directly from the FBI's 2019 Crime Data
(collected prior to the Harris/Pelosi Admin)

Profile of alleged known assailants

In 2019, 49 alleged offenders were identified in connection with the 48 law enforcement officers feloniously killed. Of those offenders, the following characteristics are known:

The average age of the alleged offenders was 31 years old. (See Table 40.)

The average height was 5 feet 10 inches tall, and the average weight was 181 pounds. (See Table 41.)

48 alleged offenders were male; 1 was female. (See Table 42.)

28 of the alleged offenders were White,
(58.3% for a population accounting for about 60%)

15 were Black/African American,
(31.2% for a population accounting for about 14%)

and 1 was Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander.
(2.08% for a population accounting for about 0.4%)

Race was not reported for 5 of the alleged offenders. (See Table 42.)

12 of the alleged offenders were under judicial supervision at the time of the incidents. (See Table 45.) or about 25%

9 of the alleged offenders were under the influence of alcohol and/or a controlled substance at the time of the fatal incidents. (See Table 45.) or about 18.75%

36 of the alleged offenders had prior criminal arrests. (See Table 46.) or about 75%


SUMMARY
After looking over the whole FBI Crime Data Table on Police Murders.

It seems any police officer in a patrol car pulling over a 5'10" 25-30 year old previously convicted, on probation, under the influence Black male driver (Black vs. White traffic stops) in December has the most likelihood of being murdered.

#6  Actually those numbers are misleading. The black > white disparity is even worse: the killers are divided into only 4 racial categories -- Hispanics apparently are lumped in with whites -- but the general population figure for whites is listed as only 60%, which means they're breaking out Hispanics from whites.

As the Census reminds us, Hispanics can be classified as either white or black. If you assign Hispanics to either the white or the black category -- as the crime figures here apparently do -- then whites become about 78% of the general population.

Which means that in 2019, the black population produces about 3x as many cop-killers per capital as the white population. Note that this is despite the fact that (as Steve Sailer has pointed out) black shooters have dramatically lower rates of accuracy than white shooters.

I'll bet the B:W cop-killing ratio increased to 4x or 5x in 2020.
