i met with them today, there are 30 of them. they are -- it is mandatory they take this week training here in the city. a thing we do with them and when they're finished it will be officially commanders. i got to meet them all today, it was a great group. we continue to do our station meetings and had a great time the other day as we closed out our summer internship program for future graduates. we presented checks from sf city to about 20 kids at the police officer association. just to hear the going commentary from the private employers that took these kids from some of the tougher neighborhoods in the city and they're looking forward to having them again next year. the kids are charged with giving us to other kids that are just like them so weak -- two other kids that are just like them so we can grow this next year. there was not a fatal encounter.

the suspect was booked into county jail. the details will be discussed during closed session. as he walked into county jail two days after the shooting. recently, we had the outside lands festival. a couple of hundred thousand people. there were three sexual assaults, possible sexual assaults reported. all three victims were under the influence of alcohol and/or other so it is a work in progress trying to find out the exact details. we have identified one potential subject. or person of interest. because the details are cloudy as of this time. none of the events are related. this was not some sort of a serial situation.

there was an article in the paper about our reporting to the department of justice. the system that has been used since 1972 only reports white, black, and other. otherwise -- obviously that is unacceptable. we will be meeting with susan giffen and our i.t. people. we just got on the web as of july. we called for a controller's report knowing that our statistics and reporting is not what it should be. the comptroller's office report to this body in january, we're acting and continue to act on the recommendations. i am absolutely not satisfied that we're not where we should be. sooner acknowledging that staff has done a great job getting us to where we are as fast as they have. we will present a comprehensive plan on where we are and how fast and possibly a date as to

when the road map will take us to where we need to be. ñ a work in progress. a full report on september 5. 49ers' season is up again. the play the vikings last friday and the one. we had a relatively quiet game. -- they played the vikings last week and they won. no significant acts of violence. there was a shooting in virginia and there has been some reporting that the suspect had a recent criminal contact in san francisco. that was not a criminal context, it was a psych hold, i reviewed the case and we did what should have been done. the last we had heard from this

person in san francisco was 47. he is from virginia and the shooting took place in his home state. lastly, i have to apologize to the commission. we reported in our taser presentation that memphis had acquired teasers. that is true but it was memphis, mich. and not memphis, tennessee. i have instructed commander ali to contact memphis. he spoke to the colonel. they're contemplating teasers -- tasers. it is not an immense situation for budgetary constraints. we will continue to talk with them and work within the resolution to make that presentation back before you within 90 days of that last meeting. that concludes my report. >> commissioners, anything for

the chiefs? thank you. item 2b. >> occ director's report. presentation of the second quarter statistical. presentation of the monthly capriotes of statistical report and companion reports for the periods of january 1, 2012 through july 31, 2012 and generate 1, 2011 through july 31, 2011 and report on the adjudication of sustained complaints. presentation of these statistical reports for generate 1, 2012 through june 30, 2012 and january 1, 2011 through june 30, 2011. airport. on the adjudication of sustained complaints. >> good evening.

it is a mouthful, all those reports. i'm going to try and consolidate. the statistical reports into my recent activities report and then i will present the second quarter report. before i do that i would like to introduce summer loughler. i would like to thank amy for the work she did with us with a legal unit. amy is the second year student at u.s. sf -- ussf law school. a lot of folks' , modern including president mazzucco -- alma mater, including president

mazzucco. amy did an excellent job and we were happy to learn this past summer that amy, who had just finished her first year wrote her way on to the law review. she is a graduate from the central coast, graduating from cal poly, san louis obispo. you do have two carranza statistical reports in your pocket. the june statistics are in the otc second quarter report. i will not discussed in this evening unless you have questions. i will briefly discuss occ activity in july and august and i will dial back to the second quarter.

from july 1 to june 30 of this year, the assisi's 6 -- opened 61 cases, four fewer than were opened in july. on july 2012, the investigators closed more cases than they opened. as of july 30, july 31, the occ had 321 pending cases. as of now they have 318 cases as opposed to 321 last year. we have 100 bus pending cases -- 100 less pending cases. in terms of mediation, it was a slow mediation month. we only mediated to cases that to a% of the cases we close in july, nine officers were voted radiation -- remediation and

they declined. we will keep an eye on this an d find out if there is some issue. we sustained four in jul of allegations. in terms of the adjudication, there were no adjudications in july. in july and early -- our outreach mediation coordinator discussed our reach -- outreach. we staffed a table to share information. two occ investigators and i

viewed national night out events. our -- in the western edition and then our investigator, greg underwood, set the table in bayview. donna staffed a table. and we gave a powerpoint investigation. the roughly meeting of the alliance for murder -- better district 6 and had many questions. that is including the recent activity's report. i can start with the conclude -- conclude with the second report. unless there any questions from

our ricin activity. >> did i hear you correctly that the number of mediations that were declined, which party declined? >> officers. >> the officers declined. >> thanks for confirming that. >> 33% of the officers to home mediation was offered declined. now on to our second quarter. you have the report in your packets. we have posted it on line -- we have posted it on line. during the second quarter, the occ received 882 complaints and closed 227 complaints.

there were feared to take actions -- failure to take action in 23 cases. our staffing remains stable with 16 investigators. one of them is a temporary investigator, left because his six months were just about up and he had obtained permanent employment as a lawyer. in the oakland city's attorney's office. we continue with our strategic plan for training and the police department offered two trainings, led by lt. joe mdfadden and representatives from cfi. the commander also gave trainings on mta.

i have spoken to several times about the budget and what happened in the second quarter. the occ had an enhanced budget which one investigator had. the city comptroller for the first time in five years gave the occ a clean bill of health. on the numerous audits recommendations that were made in the 2007 audit. the sec is extremely happy about that and we will move forward. in terms of the investigation as cases, there were 376 new cases and we closed for 27. we close 51 more cases than we

opened. we closed the quarter with three and 25 cases. 102 left pending cases and these figures are as of june 30. i give you some updated figures. in terms of caseloads, caseloads were down. that number looks better so things are looking up. sustained cases, the rate was lower in the second quarter of 2012 compared to the second quarter of 2011. 5.3% sustained rate in 2012 compared to a 2012 sustained rate. the sec sustained allegations in

12 cases but the number of days to close has increased in the second quarter compared to the second quarter of 2011. we had some emphasis on our legal unit. one of our lawyers a lot of time on policy recommendations. we only have our two trial attorneys and policy analyst attorney who edits the reports. and we are becoming more comprehensive in hour sustained report so it is taking longer. and moving on to the type of sustained allegations come in 2012, -- allegations, 2012 11
