poverty and distrusted in society anticipate doing a free city college with all of us on the map saying we promise to be there for everybody in the city thank you. >> thank you, ms. ford. >> hello supervisors i'm tom actually a city college student i own a successful small business and still this initiative with the costs and the most expensive city in america makes it easier for me to take the conversational spanish crazy to communicate with folks in any it neighborhood i'm concerned had the honor of running on the board of trustees and every neighborhood in san francisco talking with folks on the street the reality there is a real crisis of confidence and misinformation about what is happening at the city college i'll sit there in classrooms with high school students should be enrolled that are are making

the choice to enroll in colleges miles away i'll be a block away from the neighborhood supervises and have people say didn't the college close we're in the shadows of city college at this point and to me no more powerful statement we can make to the people of san francisco about the health of city college and the necessity of city college and pga 24 initiative and removing any barriers to financial barriers to assess for students at college it is a strong statement and important step in rebuilding little relationship between san francisco and city college you know, i think there is an opportunity for this body and this city to do what we do best and lead really the country on that important initiative we can

take an important stand so say saddling students is no good with debt so thank you very much for your support. >> before we have other cities come up i want to call the last speaker cards (calling names) hi, i'm representing jaws of justice i became involved in serving on a braid and one of my sons attends city college in my heart city college is the most

educational system is becoming a partner in the hash gentrification that is and has happened in this city is he it only increases because it few weeks can't go to school here anymore so we must keep city college free please, please continue to support that effort and doing everything we can to make it so one of the things i have been concerned about is making education more and more elite decreasing the number of poor people that can get an education in the city and in this nation and then when we make this more expensive your students can't afford to take anything by the core classes to learn a trade and learn skills and get a job when they scant afford to get the classes that

mediated 15 cases from the first quarter and 13 from the second quarter. the number of complaints that were sustained the second quarter represented a 10% rate and the mediated cases represented a 9% mediation rate. transparency is extremely important to the occ as it has been throughout my nine year tenure but at this point in history transparency has risen to the forefront as being extremely important for all of us. the occ's mission include informing the public and engaging them in our work and in light of recent officer-involved shooting relating in fatalities redoubled our efforts in community outreach with the beginning of 2016 and response

to community members that requested greater transparency from us through our participation on panels and attendance at community meetings to describe the occ's role in addressing complaints of police misconduct and neglect of duty and we responded to request to information and hold meetings with pro bono legal staff to the blue ribbon panel on transparency accountability and fairness and law enforcement and we also provided testimony -- i provided testimony at one of their hearings during the first quarter the occ responded to information requests from meetings with representatives from community oriented police services and cops and the u.s. department of justice in furtherance of the collaborative reform initiative between the san francisco police department and the department of justice

the during the first quarter the occ at that point it was confidentiality and required by law and met with and provided information to the san francisco civil grand jury during its investigation of the officer-involved shootings. finally during the first quarter i provided senator mark leno a letter in support of 1286 senate bill and reflebilitied the city and county of san francisco to greater access to peace officer personnel records related to serious uses of force and in cases of sustained findings of misconduct for certain allegationses. now, moving to the second quarter by the close of the quarter the occ investigators were investigating four officer-involved shootings resulting in fatalities. that's the largest number of fatal cases that the occ has had at one time. we continue to

enhance our community outreach efforts which as i have indicated we began in earnest in the first quarter of 2016, community members and members of the media requested to request greater transparency from our office, and of course we are contained in what we provide by public safety officer's procedural bill of rights when it comes to peace officer personnel records. during the second quarter of 2016 we racks with the panel on transparency and accountability and fairness and continued to work with the staff. we attended the final hearing of the panel where they presented preliminary findings, some of we which concurred with

and some we not. we responded to requests and from the cops office as well. when it -- in the area of officer-involved shootings and proposition d during the second quarter we continue provided technical assistance to supervisor malia cohen on the propdition measure that she authord and investigate all officer-involved shootings and not just the ones is not of complaints. i testified at board of supervisors committee hearings and a ballot simplification hearing on the impact of the measure. my staff provided interviews to the print, television and radio media on the impact of the measure on the occ and at the june primary prop d it

justified over 194,000 yes votes and 81 votes cast and the largest percentage of yes votes the san francisco june primary ballot. going to organizational and budget matters by the close of the second quarter 16 permanent line investigators staffed occ but 13 had full case loads. one permanent investigator who was working on an officer-involved shooting case did not have a full case load at the end of the second quarter. two other permanent line investigators were acting senior investigators during the second quarter and they had small case loads and the two senior investigators one continued to fill the vacancy created when the person in that

position was promoted [inaudible] and delay in filling the fogz position was from the creation of the list and the department of human resources was finally able to provide the occ with the necessary testing and the list, and we were able to recruit and fill. the other active senior investigator continued the vacancy when the investigator on a long-term leave of absence retired and by the end of the quarter there were five vacancies and two line and three senior investigate ors and while our budget -- at that time our budget provided for 18 line investigators and four senior and chief of investigation, and by the close of the second quarter 18 employees staffed

the 23 investigator positions. during the second quarter an investigator resigned. the senior act clerk retired on june 30, 2016. the good news. john aldon was filled to fill the attorney position effective may 31 and aaron swrizzers of hired on the 27. during the second quarter the occ interviewed and offered senior investigator positions to three internal candidates and some are in the audience this morning as the occ investigator on call. they were hired to begin on july 1. we recruited and hired carlos via real as an investigator and began in 2016. moving to engage items and i am

move to the happy ending. the police commission and president loftus thank you very much -- very much supported the occ in its efforts to enhance its budget and that advocacy and we do thank mayor lee as well as the board of supervisors resulted in nearly $2 million in budget enhancements for the occ and so the occ's 2016-2017 budget is 7.7 million dollars. what that does is currently the occ's budget has 39 positions but beginning on october 1 we will have 44 positions and that will result in an additional four journey level investigators and a senior investigator.

currently the occ has six vacant positions we're in the process of filling. we are conducting interviews as i speak, and we are conducting interviews for journey level investigators, for the 1632 senior account clerk and we will begin interviews next week for the hmong information technology. >> >> analyst assistant and come october 1 we will be able to begin filling some of the five vacant positions which include four investigator, journey level investigator positions and one senior level investigator position and we are required to at least hold one senior and one journey level investigator

position open, but we have been able to -- let's say hire in advance because we were advised that those five positions wouldn't count towards the attrition fact, and so with regard to that we already started to fill those two positions. moving on to complaints of note. i keep the commission abreast of complaints of note through our quarterly reports, and as i have indicated we currently have four officer-involved shootings that we are investigating. [inaudible] jessica williams, anita [inaudible] lopez and marie woods. we have a

complaint under general order 5.1 five enforcement of immigration laws. on that we are investigating. we have another complaint involving the destruction of homeless encampment at 18th and shotwell street and another complaint by a facebook posting by one of the officers who shot and killed a alejandro neateo and we have a complaint involving the detection of a disabled man with a prosthetic leg. we are still carrying two cases involving the f ro, unlawful entries and searches. we anticipate closing those soon. another complaint we have involves a woman shot and killed by her ex-boyfriend

and racist and homophobic text messages cases. as i have indicated the occ was heavily involved in outreach in both quarters. i am here at police commission meetings with you all on wednesday nights as well as a member of the investigation staff, and very often samra marion is present as well and the prls analyst attorney and also this evening manny force is here -- occ attorney is here because of the work he has been doing with the bar association of san francisco. and occ -- attorneys and investigators in may attendedded offender's summit on use use law and less

lethal weapons. the deputy director and senior investigators made presentations at classes of cadets and of psas, san francisco police academy. mediation coordinator donna salazar attended an events by the peninsula conflict resolution services on the use of adr and is active in the mediation community, and she also has been active in attending community meetings in western edition and western edition a nei -- and visitacion neighborhoods. in june there were attorneys at the fair and i won't go into more detail and i often provide this afternoon to you already. in the area of policy analysis which is an extremely part of the occ ark

work, essential part of our work pursuant to charter we are required to provide recommendations concerning the police department's policies or practices to enhance police and community relations while still ensuring effective police services and as i indicated samra leads that policy work and during the first quarter her works ifed on the police department's use use department -- use of force general orders as well as the crisis intervention team, department general order and also language access projects, and again i will not go into great detail about the use of force issues. what i will talk about is during

the first quarter the occ completed and provided police department general draft order on crisis intervention team procedures and tell uses, and the occ worked in partnership with the police department and several community organizations to implement a cit program that provided the appropriate police response to behavior health crisis calls. and during the first quarter the initiated license projects came to fruition. since 2007 the occ has recommended that the department comply with the mandate during under the general order on data collection. use of bilingual officers and language line to provide services for limited english proficient individuals. in

february 2016 the department issued department bulletin 16029. it requires officers to commence using the limited english proficient data entry field whenever they write an incident report involving a victim, witness or a suspect. also responding to occ recommendations in partnership with the language access working group the department issued department bulletin 16-03 and training video and online survey regarding the general order and the department bulletin requires all officers to review the training bulletin. in the second quarter the occ proposed that the police commission resolution -- police department's collection analysis

and reporting upon sexual assault. forensic evidence that was anonymously -- the resolution was unanimously adopted. the occ works extensively with community stakeholders and the representative from the san francisco police officers association and submitted the draft use of force policy and the police commission, this police commission unanimously adopted that draft. we continue to advocate that the police address the occ's 19 recommendations that we made a year ago in response to the president's task force on 21st century policing. and because those items will come up next week i will not read all 19 of them to you this evening, and

moving quickly through the police commission provided for the occ to present a line edited of general order as listed and from community stakeholders including the occ, the bar association of san francisco and their representative julie tran is here in the audience this evening. the aclu of northern california, the offender's office and coalition on homelessness and the blue ribbon working panel on use of force and officer-involved shooting, and shortly before the police

commission's final vote on the use of force policy which was june 22 basf, the bar association of san francisco met with the representatives of the san francisco police officers association and the occ about the proposed use use version. there were extended negotiations that took place and the occ bar association ko a provided the police commission a line edit version three in which the occ, the bar association, poa representatives reached agreement concerning aikts% of the use of force provisions. >> >> as we know those are in labor negotiations currently. agreed upon provisions included the use of force -- use of

force policy is more restrictive than the constitutional standard and state law and requires officer to use de-escalation and other practices before force. the parties didn't meet agreement on co carotid restraints and shooting at vehicles and penal code and three areas. the police commission after hearing testimony agreed about the 12 identified areas and voted unanimously to adopt version three and the commission also requested that the occ's policy attorney, samra marian was a subject expert during the meet and confer process with the san francisco police officers association. and in june the

occ reinitiated discussions about the 19 points the occ made on the 21st century policing report and that in brief summarizes the first and second quarter report. >> any questions for director hicks on the two reports? and again these are summary reports and we get a number of updates so thank you for the comprehensive report. i want to note one of thing of concern to community members in regards to some of the discipline from occ cases not resulting in termination and you do note in this that two of the cases that you sustained in december of 2015 would have come to the police commission but -- one officer retired and the other one resigned and it's important for the public to know with progress discipline and knowing

what the outcome is going to be changes disaifers and those officers needed to separate themselves from the san francisco police department so i wanted to draw attention to that and certainly acknowledge the significant policy work we have talked about for some time over the past two quarters the occ has been a tremendous partner in that effort. thank you. commissioner hwang. >> i had a question and i appreciate the fact that you put in what the occ's recommendations were on each of the incidents and i guess my question is if the discipline imposed by the former chief was different from what the occ recommended what's the occ's recourse? can you bring those cases to the commission? what if you think it's a case that warrants beyond a ten day suspension or below ten days what happens then? >> well commissioner hwang it has not been the practice in

the past for the occ to bring cases to the commission that are below the ten day threshold should there be a disagreement on discipline between the occ and the chief of police and practicality because the occ has been so very short staffed often we're butting up against the 33 date. i believe we will have more lead time as we hire up but in answer to the other part of your question. should the occ -- should i determine that a

case is commission level and the chief disagrees then i sign the charges myself, and the police commission currently has a case before it where the chief and i did not agree on the level of discipline, and that is more often the case than whether or not there should be discipline. it is the level and so i am required to meet and confer with the chief of police on those cases that i deem commission level and if we are not able to reach agreement then instead the chief filing the charges i file the charges. this is the second time in my tenure that i have done that for something that i deemed to be commission level. >> but if it's not commission level if the chief is recommending a verbal reprimand

and you're recommending a written reprimand does it default to what the chief says? >> thank you for asking commissioner hwang it has in the past, and the -- i have formalized my input on discipline by providing in writing the discipline that i recommend on occ sustained cases, and i refer to the section of this police commission's guidelines on discipline and penalties, but i have not upon learning that the chief disagrees with my level of discipline or that discipline should occur at all, brought it

to you. the only way i am bringing it to you and now this is a fairly new process and it's evolving is by providing these monthly comprehensive statistical reports. >> last question. so i guess what is our role if we see this? we don't have the facts of the case. we have a quick summary. >> for purposes of time i will jump in. commissioner hwang if you're interested looking at this and making a deeper dive and a recommendation and when the director said if there is a disagreement between the chief and the occ there is not a mechanism to bring it to the commission unless it's more than ten days and warrants it and you could look into it and if there is a recommendation to address it differently. that's what we asked for is know what recommendation is. my request

if you remember we would hear the verbal if there is a disagreement but not aware there is a disagreement in the sanction and uncovered a issue that i encourage to you look into and make a recommendation to this commission. does that answer it for the most part director hicks? does i miss anything? >> president loftus i have nothing further to add. >> anything further commissioner hwang. >> there are a number before us and are we acknowledging there is a disagreement and it's brought to our attention now and should we act on this. >> i think you're raising great questions and my suggestion is look into it deeper and make a recommendation to the commission. it's not something on the agenda tonight but i welcome you to look into it. that will require some studying of the charter, some creative thinking with the city city

attorney's' so my thing i don't think we're getting suggestion tonight. i think you're raising good questions and help us to look into further and to report back. anything further on this matter? >> yes. president loftus there are three members of the -- and members of the commission there are three monthly statistical reports for -- there's one for june, one for july and one for august and the interest of time i can defer going through them case by case. each one of them list the cases in which the occ had a sustained -- one or more sustained allegations, the discipline that was recommended

by me, and the discipline that was imposed or not by the chief , so should you wish for me to read through each of the cases can i do so or if not i will not. >> we have the report so i don't know that's necessary from my perspective. vice president turman. >> [inaudible] >> jesus. >> i just want to follow up from one thing from commissioner hwang and when you have the meeting with the cleave of police and up to ten days and if i heard you right and the chief disagreed with you you're butting up against the statute statute of limitations and you will meet

with the chief of police and that's fine but if you're in the issue of ten days or not ten days and they disagree with you isn't there a way to file here because we're talking -- ten days, 11 days it makes a difference and ten days it comes in front of the commission so when you were butting up against the statute of limitations does something prevent you from filing with the commission and continue to negotiate and take it back to the chief's level? >> yes, commissioner dejesus first of all i do not meet face-to-face with the chief in every one of these cases. there are -- in the cases that i am asking to take to the commission certainly we will meet face-to-face regardless of the

statute of limitations. we will make sure that happens. there are some instances -- it's happening less and less -- where discipline is imposed and there has not been a conversation, and i know that the department is endeavoring to ensure that happens, but i will give you an example of where it was not a commission level case, but i believe that it was a sustainable alleged. the chief didn't and we had a lengthily conversation about his perspective. i provided him my perspective. we agreed to disagree. and again it was a neglect of duty allegation so

the level of -- i mean every case is serious, but the degree of seriousness according to your guidelines was at the lowest level d and i don't believe it warranted bringing it to this commission, but the commission as president loftus indicated can clarify policy, and provide me and provide the chief

direction on what you want -- would want us to do when there is not an agreement on a penalty. >> i would say file the complaint and then get guidance from the commission and that's just me. >> i think it needs studying and a legitimate policy question and if a complaint come toss the occ and an disagreement and to the full commission for lower level and compared to ia and then the chief and we have to think about the misconduct and entry ways and treating them fairly and having a clear path to the resolution. there are open questions here and i understand the occ's reticence for a d level offense and the commission had the questions and we have a disagreement and have more questions. sometimes the facts aren't complete so it's an open area we have been

searching for and we need to calendar it. commissioner hwang you raised good questions but it takes work. >> i have one thing and we have cases from chief suhr and needed guidance and brought it to us and took it back and if you need guidance and file it and bring it here and see how it goes forward or back. that's what i would say. >> i believe with chief suhr he did that if somebody had termination held in advance and low level offense so it wasn't low level offense and held that way and we have been focusing on serious misconduct and i think that's the progress we made. we're raising good points and let's be thoughtful how we approach this and invite assistance from commissioner hwang. vice president turman. >> thank you reading and understanding -- could you

switch the order around in your presentation from what you recommend and then what the officer received instead of doing it the other way? >> yes. >> okay. my comment i asked the occ to switch around the order so it reads in the report where the recommendation was and then what the officer received for ease of reading and understanding. >> i would agree vice president turman particularly since i say at the beginning the occ findings and recommended discipline and the chief's proposed discipline are as follows, so yes it's backwards. i will reverse it. >> thank you. >> thank you director. >> you are welcome president loftus and there's one more

report i believe in addition to the comprehensive statistical report and that would be the occ's responses to the grand jury report on o is investigations and i believe include under my agenda item. >> yes. >> all right. you have my report in the packet and that is a letter -- actually it's a letter to the honorable jon stewart presiding judge, and on july 6 of this year the san francisco civil grand jury issued a report regarding the report of officer-involved shootings in san francisco. because some of their findings and recommendations related to the office of citizen complaints, the occ was

required by law to file a written response. we issued the response on september 2, 2016. in short the grand jury recommended that the occ should have access to transcription services for memorializing the interview with the help of this commission, president loftus, vice president turman, the board of supervisors and mayor lee. we now have funding for transcription and we are having interviews transcribed. it's significant time savings for members of our staff. they recommended that the occ add to the website more material describing how our o is investigation process works. again we trairchged the commission -- thanked commission, mayor lee the board of supervisors, the budget augmentation to provide for us to hire an assistant

information systems business analyst and we will be conducting interviews next week, and then finally the grand jury noted that increased transparency with respect to these investigations would improve public confidence in the investigations. we agree, but again we have to note that we provide what we believe to be the maximum transparency allowed by law based on guidance we have received from the san francisco city attorney's office. we have our openness reports, the quarterly reports, the annual reports, the monthly statistical reports. they're all -- except for the monthly statistical reports which soon will be all of the rest are available online and they describe as much as permitted on our

investigations. and that concludes my report. >> thank you director hicks. are there any questions for director hicks on this report? okay. great. thank you director hicks. >> you're welcome president loftus, members of the commission. sergeant please call the next item. >> chief's report. this item is to a law the chief of police to report on recent police department activities and make announcements and updates on professional standards bureau and regards to the collaborative review status. >> >> update regarding on the bar association and basf criminal task force report and recommendations. >> i will start off with the stats for the period. our homicides are down and shootings up 13%

and we're at 108 and last year 96. our gun violence which is shootings and violence and up and city-wide it's down 15%. robberies are down 17%. we received 664 firearms to date and burglaries down 7% and auto burglaries down 18%. >> did you say auto is down 18%? >> yes. >> that's fantastic. >> dates on major crimes. we had a success. hostage negotiation team surrender in the southern district of the city on the bay bridge. it started off as aggravated assault with a knife at 1045 on the 200 block of main street. a black male got into a verbal fight with possibly the

girlfriend. unknown what the relationship is at this time. the victim said the fight escalated. at which point the subject bit and hit the victim. the subject fled prior to the units arriving. the victim was located on the muni bus and interviewed and transported to st. francis for treatment. the chp recalled to a subject walking on the bay bridge ferlt the subject was a resister with the highway patrol. the cal highway patrol tazed the subject and end up in officer-involved shooting as he pulled out a kitchen knife and held to his own throat but not go to the officers and shoot him and went over the north lanes on to the lower deck and walk way and threatened to jump. hostage negotiation team responded as well as specialists with less lethal. the fire department responded. the sfpd took lead

and negotiating and placing the subject in custody if he came off the walk way and negotiation completed at 530 in the a.m. and the team is handling the booking on that. there was another incident and a officer was injured in the mission district. nick rose of mission statement was bit by a resisting subject. in that case we booked robert cam land transseent and made assertions and the officer responded to a person in mental crisis and destructing property and on a garbage can and pulling the spikes out so birds don't sit there and the officer grabbed him by the arm and waist

and pulled him off and the subject hit the officer in the face and stuck the fingers in his eye and the vision was blurred and took the subject to the ground. they ended up face-to-face on the ground and the subject bit the officer on the cheek. the subject was -- the officer was able to control the suspect's face and body on the ground as units arrived and placed him under arrest. the officer referenced that he believed that the subject was attempting to get his gun and had situation awareness to keep the gun away while fighting and an incident on [inaudible] middle school is and officer from the internet against childrens incident and notified about an incident this year and 13 year old was conducted on facebook by a father of one of the friends and sent the victim

dozens of sexually explicit videos and attempted to contact her and the unit contacted the victim's parents and the suspect was taken into custody by sergeant harvey and other members of our team and the subject booked in that case was alex roan. he was arrested for several charges related to sending pornographic material to a minor. there was an attempted homicide shooting in the alice grightsive projects and double rocks and at 9:00 p.m. in the alice griffith choicing community. the incident occurred -- jose jeter was identified and officers took him into custody and bookod multiple charges but the serious is the

attempted murder with a deadly weapon. there was a car jacking and pursuit and call with the officers and occurod the 14th. and that was at 3:24 a.m. at 24th and [inaudible] where it began. the victim was an uber driver and the victim told dispatch he saw a handgun. the suspects told the victim to get out of the way and jumped into his car and drove off. richmond units broadcast the vehicle and suspect info and the victim believed there was a gun. 15 minutes later units saw the car and pursued it through the soma area at the 101 on ramp near 13th and van ness. sergeant

the injuries don't seem life-threatening the officers recognized one as involved in a violent crime in the western edition. at the hospital the doctors were discussing he had bullets in the body through a visual injury and visual through the scan and the last item at a high school threats incident that occurred this morning and 16 year old who was beat up by four female students yesterday. last night the victim posted serious threats "there would be a walenberg massacre" and threats to the female students that assaulted them. his mother was in contact with the school and we unable to locate him. park station school resource officer is looking for the suspect at the residence and the school liaison is working with

the school district to get information out and locate this young man. and that concludes that portion of the report and the next portion would be the san francisco bar association's presentation on the data collection. >> thank you chief chaplin. just really wonderful news about the reduction in homicides year to date, the violent crime down and auto burglaries down 18%. i mean that's extraordinary and i am thrilled to see that. we don't need to look far across this country certainly with sudden change in leadership, a lot of things that happened in san francisco these are positive results and so -- >> can i add one last thing? today i swore in a new 960 and

dan dunnett came back and assigned to the cold case in the homicide division to investigate those cases and the ones that come up time and time again and i swore him in today at public safety building and he's hit the ground running and testifying in another homicide case currently, so he is now joining inspector salane in that unit for the helped division. >> great. thank you for the update. commissioner dejesus. >> i had a question and reading the paper and i can't remember yesterday or today and talking about cameras. do we have district stations out with cameras and trained or out or is that right? >> yes. >> okay. how much district stations did we have number one and number two oakland police had lost video on their cameras when they did an upgrade to the

system. that was part of the whole column i read and are we paying attention to that so we don't lose videos? >> the two stations started and ingleside and bay side are done and rolling it out. i gave the schedule a week or two ago gave the roll out schedule. we're projected to have all the district stations done by november of this year and in regard to oakland they were one of the groups to get the camera system so they got equipment free of charge and they maintain it is storage internally. we use a cloud base system so they use internal system where all the stuff is stored on premises so i don't think it's comparing apples and oranges and the two systems together and we have built in safeguard and i did hear that i believe the tech people accidentally deleted the footage.

>> commissioner -- dr. marshall. >> [inaudible] [off mic] >> i hesitate to do this only because -- imieg to knock on wood but the statistics are heartening. i guess the reason i am saying that when you hear the year to date statistics it's different when it's eight months into the year so if we can somehow keep that up i would certainly like to hear at some point why you think -- some analysis of why you think that those numbers are like that. now maybe a couple more months if we keep like that but across the board thing is a little remarkable and as we end august and september we have those numbers and again every time give the incident reports or situation reports and they do not end in any kind of violence that's -- i also have to say thank you for that too.

>> as commissioner dejesus pointed out in the media heard about the surge nationwide with violent crime and homicide with chicago and hit 500. you're seeing it across the board and violent and homicides are on the rise and san francisco is bucking that trend. you're right. you know if we can continue with that it would be great. again i will follow the knocking on wood commissioner marshall. >> thank you. >> okay. so ms. tran from the bar association. commissioner hwang and i will remember you and maybe a year ago and julie tran is doing great work and we need a report before the commission and when you were deputy chief you served on this and maybe give us an introduction to the work. we heard about it and wanted to bring you before the commission to hear you know the results, but you served with them before you were chief, so --

>> i did and that was a good old days. [laughter] life was simpler then. no, i served on the sub-committee, the san francisco bar association farmed a committee last year to look into issues with the criminal justice system as a whole and the sub-committee is broke down and i was part of data collection sub-committee with the two people standing at podium now and great human beings and fantastic people to work with, manny forge and julie tran and we started looking at the data collection in other agencies and how efficiently and effectively they did it and i don't want to steal -- >> [inaudible] [off mic] >> no, i don't want to do that so i will defer from her and started as a large body and we were part that and part of the sub-committee and our specialty was data analysis and collection that's departments were doing to look for and deal with issues of

racial disparities so with they will let julie do her presentation with manny. >> good evening and welcome. >> [inaudible] [off mic] >> your mic is off. >> i don't know. i am hoping we can come back you know within a month or two to see where we're at after the department has had an opportunity and the department of justice had an opportunity to digest this so to back up the bar association started this criminal task force and born out of a black lives matter demonstration matter of attorneys and yolanda jackson our executive director and spoke at therks vent and had an interesting perception and said "it is time for lawyers to roll up the sleeves and to get to work with their police departments" and i think

that's distinguished us from other groups that we did our work with the police department. we did not see ourselves as a group -- we're 8,000 lawyers and membership. we didn't think it was our business to make the police department our business but we did feel it was an important role to lend our skills to the police department in a collaborative way to see what solutions we could find together, and to bring some of the resources that a bar association like ours has and i think it's been and i know you would say this too. it's been a very interesting journey and it's been -- we actually all get along really well and work together very well, and we started out -- our sub-committee which is a data collection and analysis committee did not start out by looking at sfpd. what can sfpd do? what can it do or should it do? that's not our

goal. our goal was to look at research and look at other departments and literally were on the road starting a year ago with the san jose police department and then making a number of trips to the oakland police department where we found their work to be incredibly helpful, so why data collection is needed? first of all it's the law. when we started this work ab 953 was not on the table nor was the city's ordinance. our goal was to not just help with the data collection but to understand its usefulness, and what we learned is that it can actually be used to improve policing, particularly enforcement strategies and community policing. it can identify problems identify inappropriate uses of force particularly if we can couple it with racial profiling or racial
