clear a backlog of investigations into oochs -- officer-involved shootings. the examiner reports the average investigation takes two years. critics say that leaves police officers in limbo. it could possibly compromise cases. now you are looking at video of the scene of an officer- involved shooting in march. where alejandro nieto was killed after drawing a stun gun mistaken for a real gun. 20 investigations that date back to 2011 are still under review. happening today, a santa rosa woman accused of grabbing a 12-year-old boy by the throat is scheduled to appear in court. prosecutors say the woman went to olivet charter elementary school at lunch and asked where she could find the boy. she's accused of grabbing him by the neck, shoving him and warning him not to bother her daughter. police say they have nod been

able to confirm whether the woman's daughter was bullied by this boy and they say it's possible the woman confronted the wrong child. a new morality clause in teachers' contracts is leading to a crisis at catholic schools in the diocese of oakland. today's oakland tribune reports three teachers have quit over the clause. it's in their new contract. a growing number of parents are withholding donations to the more than 50 catholic schools in the diocese. this new clause requires teachers to abide by the teachings of the catholic church both at school and at home. now, critics are concerned teachers could be fired for being gay or having sex outside of marriage or even for using birth control. a tree trimmer will face federal charges for injuring several baby birds in oakland. erat least five young herons

months and then allow the nsa to search them in terrorism investigations if the nsa gets an order from a judge. 90 minutes ago, the u.s. labor department released the latest numbers on jobs and they show the number of americans filing new claims for jobless benefits rose last week but the total number of unemployed people drawing benefits has hit a post resocial low. a report issued shows the u.s. unemployment rate has fallen to the lowest level in seven years. some source use very special technology to track their customers. that's raising privacy concerns. analysts say the new technology from the company security company 3vr allows retailers to use facial recognition technology to track individual shoppers. the company didn't say which stores are using it but they say both the big box stores and the specialty retail stores use

it. the technology gives stores information about a shopper's age, gender, even the kind of mood they are in. >> it's kind of creepy that technology has infiltrated our lives to that extent that they can shop our habits. >> want the best buy you can get or anybody in this day and age with this economy but i still feel it's somewhat of an invasion of privacy. >> the stores say they use the information to improve their customer service. but privacy advocates say customers never gave permission to be tracked. four police cars in alameda will soon be equipped with automated license plate readers. the city council approved spending $80,000 for those cameras. now, tiburon and piedmont also have license plate cam are yous but they are -- cameras but they are stationary. officials in those cities credit the cameras for a recent drop in time. the cameras can scan hundreds of license plates every minute,

helping police identify stolen cars. civil liberties groups oppose the cameras because of privacy concerns. a new morality clause in people's contracts quickly causing a major crisis in the diocese of oakland. today's tribune reports three teachers have quit over the clause that's in their contract. and a growing number of parents are withholding donations to the more than 50 catholic schools in the diocese. the new clause requires teachers to abide by the teachings of the catholic church both at school and at home. critics of the clause say they are concerned teachers could be fired for being gay, having sex outside of marriage or even for using birth control. 8:17. state lawmakers are joining the right to save city college of san francisco. bay area lawmakers in the state senate and assembly have introbe duesed resolutions urging the accrediting commission to give city college
