1:28 pm
looking for information how much the department was spending in any way to send officers to the funerals of the two new york city police officers who were gunned down in december. i received a response on january 5th from the department saying that it needed an extension of time to look for documents. i really find this inexcusable that the department cannot within 3 weeks tell me how many officers went to these funerals, did the department pay for their travel or hotel costs in any way, and if they were paid for any duty and they were considered on city time while they were in new york city. while the department has not been able to give me this public information, the department was able to post photos on sfpd twitter feed
1:29 pm
showing at least 8 sfpd officers in the city. i'm going to give you a copy of the exchanges between the department and me on this. the next is the officer shooting of matthew hardy at the station. i have filed a request for the tapes and i have been denied access because there's an active investigation going on. however, the only narrative we have about the killing of matthew hoffman is what the sfpd is saying about this mentally unstable man who had presented himself as troubled prior to eventually showing up at the parking lot. it's very convenient that sfpd had access to a cell phone where there supposedly was a note excusing -- excuse me --
