think twice about getting a goldfish if you are not potentially willing to care for it for years. if you do have a goldfish you want to get rid of, they suggest giving it away instead of releasing it. janai norman, abc news, new york. >> this used to happen a lot to people in florida who would take alligators as pets and release them. it has happened in other places, too. drew, i did not know goldfish got that big. >> i kid you not, when i went to the county fair when i was a kid i want to goldfish in that thing lasted like eight years and my fish tank and i promise you, it got to be eight or nine inches long. those things are no joke. >> you must have had a big tank. >> it was not that big, honestly. you get a goldfish as a kid and you think, it won't last that long. this thing was there years later. >> you must've been taking great care of that goldfish. >> i had to drive it across the country when i moved across the country, because it kept

now to our series, california dreaming, where we look at issues threatening the california dream and people working so hard to keep the dream alive. >> today we look at policing as the legislature looks at dozens of police reform bills. >> many are turning away from technology and poured more community oriented approaches. >> when we see, over and over, with alarming frequency, these acts of violence perpetuated by police against citizens, people lose trust in the institution of policing and that needs to improve. >> listen. >> for what? for what? for dancing >> we have seen a lot of civil liberties abuses coming out of benign, nonthreatening stops that escalated for some reason. the people no longer cooperate with the police. they have given up on the

institution. that got us into this area of looking for a silver bullet, a quick fix, like tech will fix everything. >> reporter: for many police departments that silver bullet has been predictive policing. predictive policing uses a computer program to analyze crime data and predictor of future crime might occur. los angeles police started using a version of it in 2008, but dumped it last year. critics claim predictive policing is racially biased. >> let's say the data is collected all in east oakland, so we say a bunch of crimes are committed here. we put that in the machine learning algorithm and it comes back and goes guess what, there will probably be a crime. now we send officers back to the same location and it just serves to over police the same locality. >> you want to make sure that what you are doing is effective. the problem arises if you are

using data as your form of policing. >> reporter: as calls for reform grow louder, some departments are turning to community policing as an alternative. in los angeles, the community safety partnership bureau has officers take part in sports leagues and youth classes. the goal is to build trust with residents and ultimately reduce crime. >> patrol units, they call it suppress and arrest. these guys are actually interacting with the community and we love it. it is a different kind of policing. >> reporter: in 2017, santa cruz police got rid of their predictive policing program and tried a different approach. >> i am a community service officer with the santa cruz police department. i am a non-sworn officer. i don't carry a gun and i don't make arrests. our main neighborhood policing team, our focus is to think outside the box, finding ways to solve issues through community outreach and minimal

enforcement of municipal codes. we are at 333 front street. for a long time, this lot was really neglected. there was a lot of criminal activity here. the parking lot was a free-for- all. just unsavory behavior. i was tasked with this project and first i reached out to the city employees and asked them, what are you seeing? what are the problems? what do you want fixed? the goal was to create passive deterrence to allow the environment to control itself and we did that by use of signage. cleaning up the landscaping created a less desirable place for people to loiter and litter. >> we felt like she really cared, versus responding for a one time call for service and then being gone and having these people come back and not resolving the issues. >> where people have done

neighborhood policing, you have seen a reduction in crime. you have also seen a reduction in complaints against police, because they are doing neighborhood policing. they're working with people. when you work shoulder to shoulder with somebody, it is hard to break that relationship, because you accomplish something together. that is the idea behind neighborhood policing. >> you can stream all of our california dreaming stories on demand, including our 30 minute special right now on our abc7 bay area streaming apps. if you are dreaming of the weather, you've got it, come true. >> reducing fire risks, so that's good. tonight, low fog, once again, our usual pattern. overnight temperatures mainly in the low to mid 50s and then tomorrow we have lingering low clouds into the mid morning hours and then they will linger at the coast all day. sunny over the bay and inland highs will range from 50s at the coast to 60s around the bay and upper 60s and low 70s

up, families are facing back- to-school shopping. spending is expected to put a strain on household budgets. david louie looks at what is on kids shopping lists and how to prioritize your spending. >> reporter: parents and kids are already shopping for school and bracing themselves for some budget pain. a survey of 3000 consumers by the audit tax and advisory firm says spending will be up more than last year. it is linked to an expected surge in preschool enrollments that were postponed during the pandemic. average spending per child is forecast to be $268, an increase of $21 from last year. topping the shopping list will be footwear, due to disruption of in classroom learning. >> a lot of them have not seen their friends in a long time and they want new apparel and footwear. >> reporter: second on the shopping list, school supplies.

while schools commonly send out a list of supplies needed, recent increases may strain budgets. in that case, the dean of the san jose state college of education points out providing supplies is not mandatory by law. >> family should reach out to teachers to say, what is most important, how do i prioritize? or even, i can't afford any of this, can you make sure the school provides those? in which case the school is required to provide supplies. >> reporter: another concern, inventory may be limited. >> retailers started to get a lot more optimistic and bullish about the demandback school, so they went back to many of their suppliers and wanted more inventory, but it is hard to get more inventory in a fairly short window. >> reporter: california stimulus checks in september may help with expenses. david louie, abc7 news. >> it is interesting. get our live newscast, breaking weather, and more with our app on apple tv, android tv,
