They lived in Mandarin, a neighborhood in Jacksonville, Florida. She attended segregated schools in the 1960s, graduating from Wolfson High School in the 1970s.

In 2010, an Orlando police officer flipped and broke the neck of 84-year-old Daniel Daley after the man became belligerent, leaving him critically injured. Witnesses and Daley’s family alleged excessive force and filed a lawsuit. The police department cleared the officer as “justified” in using a “hard take down” to arrest Daley, concluding he used the technique correctly even though he and the other officer made conflicting statements. Demings said “the officer performed the technique within department guidelines” and said they would launch a broader review of department procedures. A federal jury disagreed, ruling in Daley’s favor and awarding him $880,000 in damages.

In January 2018 Demings voted to renew and expand Section 702, allowing the warrantless collection of Americans emails in some situations. In April 2017 the NSA announced a suspension of certain collection activities after the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court deemed it illegal. The bill provided an extension of Section 702, which was set to expire December 31, 2017 and effectively reversed the courts decision, allowing certain warrantless surveillance of Americans’ communications, even if that American isn’t suspected of breaking the law. Demings voted against an amendment that would have required the government to seek a warrant based on probable cause before searching surveillance data for information about Americans, which failed on a 183-233 vote.
