7:23 am
congratulations greg, and there was light up, what i think is really important. and what you are doing, with the parents and the kids in there, and you are really reaching out and i think that you call the program, news and community, engagement. and i have to say, i want from the article and i was very impressed and very good work. >> thank you, inspector tapia. >> actually for the audience knows, he was one of the first community service officers in the community service division. >> that is right. >> community relations in the san francisco police department, thank you inspector. >> next speaker? please come forward. >> good evening. >> good evening. >> i am in the justice committee and i first of all, i wanted to express my disappointment in not seeing the commission out on the rally, and march that we invited to you guys personally
7:24 am
to. but i am sure that you guys have your reasons for not showing up but i did want to express my disappointment in not seeing you guys there, i did want to call to your attention, the last things that have happened with alex's case, as you know, he was the young man who was shot and killed by a pd on march 21st of this year. there is a statement that contradict the chief's remarks from the town hall meeting that was hosted in the mission district on back in march. >> and the same... and this, according to that, and the loss that has been filed against the city and county of san francisco. and there is a lot of contradiction and i am really
7:25 am
concerned, because, san francisco has an unlimited amount of resources that you guys could have had a correct investigation of the incident that led up to alex's murder. and it is really, it is really disappointing to know that the investigation was completed through the commission, within ten days. and five months later, now there is a witness, and the officers that were involved in the shooting are out patrolling our streets. so, there is a really big concern there, for me, personally, and i know that for the community, that these police officers are patrolling, there is a really big disconnect between the police department and the community and the mission district right now, there is a lot of fear in
7:26 am
the community, due to, not being transparent, to give us information to the other cases that are having a lot of information as you guys well know, in ferguson, there have been, there has been several disobedience and they have received information and i don't think that it is fair that that san francisco after five months, we don't even have the, the names of the officers that were, that murdered (inaudible), and also, i would like to know if there is any update on the occ. complaint that various san francisco residents have made. >> okay. thank you. >> next. >> hello, i am also with the justice, and the committee. and following up, on my
7:27 am
friend's comments, and at first of all i want to know if the shooting is at all a high priority for the police commission. also, on friday, when the lawsuit was filed, it came to light that there are ear and eye witnesses that principlely contradict the police version of events. and the most important fact, is that he never had a taser in his hand or moved to get his taser. so. i want to ask, whether this police commission will investigate any cover up by san francisco police department of the facts in this case? thank you. >> thank you. >> next speaker? >> hearing none, public comment is now closed call the next line item. >> 2 a, chief's report, discussion and review of recent activities. >> good evening, chief.
7:28 am
>> good evening, commissioners, and members of the community, the over all picture of crime in san francisco was related to violent crimes as we are past the halfway point, and the violent crime according to our july number are down, 26 percent and the property crime, is flat, part one, which is the violent and the felony property crimes are down four percent. and so it is in pretty good stead in that regard. shooting victims in san francisco down 13 percent, year to date and obviously anybody that has ever shot in san francisco, is an intended in my mind is an intended homicide and we track those numbers and pay attention. but, the homicides year to date, we are at 25 unfortunately, and we suffered a uv related homicide
7:29 am
yesterday, on paralta street. homicide inspectors, arrived and actually found the husband in the company of his attorney follow up investigation, and conferencing with the da's office and led to the arrest and the booking of the suspect for the murder of his wife yesterday. and again, we are working real hard and i see some of our advocates in the crowd. so any time that we suffer, not that any homicide is not sublimely regret able, we did have that great run without of a dv related and now we have a couple this year. we had a couple of high profile traffic incidents as of late on august, 15th, a 2-year-old was struck and killed, on mission street. and at about 10:30. and close examination, led to the arrest of her aunt and led to her in the street, unaccompanied and she returned to pick up her brother and we
7:30 am
are actively seeking the white vehicle that actually hit the child and anybody out in the public that picture is on our website and if anybody could led us to that person, we want to talk to the driver of that car to find out, why he or she left the scene. also, late on sunday night and early monday morning, there was a fatality, on muni. and not on muni but by a bus, at geary and lion. and that investigation, is still under way, and it was a pedestrian, that was killed. but the fault in that particular accident has yet to be determined. and on a more positive note, we did have some positive activity in the department of 50 people, 50 members were promoted to the rank of sergeant or supervisor and the supervision is important to the department and to myself and they then, have been promoted in the course all week long and they will go to the new positions and i will be
