“The Daily Show” correspondent Samantha Bee took a close look on Tuesday night at the fact that there are no statistics about the number of civilians shot by police each year.

During her report, Bee interviewed former New York Police Commissioner Bernard Kerik. Kerik was “confident” that the data existed and said that it “goes somewhere in the federal government.”

“Oh that data goes somewhere,” Bee said. “It goes like this: ‘Poof!’ And then it just disperses to the wind.”

Bee even flagged down statistician Nate Silver in hopes of tracking the data down. Unfortunately even he couldn’t help as he confirmed “those statistics just don’t exist.”

“You know no mom wants to think that their child will grow up to become just another statistic,” Bee said. “Thankfully, given the current state of our laws, there’s no chance of that ever happening.”
