[agenda item read] >> commissioner mazzucco: good

evening, chief. >> good evening, president anuc commissioners. i'm going to present tonight's report and talk about major trends and couple of items of interest for the publi i'll start with crime trends whe we are this year. i'm very pleased to report to the commission and the public that we are down 43% in homicides year to datae as of this week. cides where we were this 12ho time last year. we are 16 opposed to 28 this time last year, going into the summer, that's really pleasing. we still have a lot of work to do, sixonths left in the year -- little more than six months, but compared to where we were last year, that's very, veryd . ourov homicides with firearms are down 58% from where they were t t year, lly,s ti last year, we have eight

year to date. our total gun vlence victims are down by 50%, and this is the number of total victims strucky b gfire. when you look at our five year trendor homicides, we are as low as we've been since 2014 in terms of homis year to date, so really speaks well of the -- not only that the men and women of the san francisco partrships and collaboration with other city departments and the community, i think is all contributing factors or all contributing factors to crime stat. as property crime, the commissioniti commission knows, we have the struggle with crime, particularly car break-ins. more good news, with hards to that we are down 26%ar

h y al 3,000 fewer car break-ins than this time last year. more great news. i think that can be attributed to many things. our strategies changed last summer, and we put a lot of things in place to contribute strategy adjustments are working. our overall property crime are do ch i3, -- about 3300 crimes less than this time last year. and car deaths, we are down almost 30%, so that's 600 crimes fewer than this time last year. are very positive at this point of the year. we'll continue to do the tgs we're doing and make adjustments when we need to, but really good news to report the ime fron there were two homicides this week, one on the 200 bl --or tf 14th streetside --

and the ingleside district, and the other was the 1500 block of oakdale avenue in the bayview, first one, female victim, s soap wk to d fore we identify the victim, but she appears to be in her 60's, but there's a suspect in custody and there's been charged filed by the district attorney's office. second, 26-year-old victim, no have somedo leads that we hope we can resolve this case pretty quickly. there was a -- major events this week. we have 41st annual haight street fair. we don'tny i aues. pas is an ongoing engagement programming and some

of theks in our city, at hearst park and playground in ingleside, we have programming on friday from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. basically for the kmu commissioners, it's a community engagement. wepd oedloyed at the park and really the idea is to engage with the public. we bu we're also there for engagement, and i gives the youth in the area something positive to do. there's a lot of free programming, similwimming, hea fairs, and line dancing and that type of things are ongoing. that started last fall, and we continue it through the summer, when school gets out -- school gets out today, i think, we bit to ge kids more to do in the program. it's another way to address crime without necessarily going to enforcement. when you give kids something to

do, they're less likely to be out doing bad things, so that's the idea behind this. it's really, really nice to have rec and parks and the pd and the mayor's office working together, so we hope this continues and the funding ntin s to stor it. there is one other thing of interest that i n po a nice article in the paper today on our police unit team ain brtraining, and basicall this this training was develod by strategies for youth, and we're not the only partment in the country that's doing it, but the training aimed tove training actions between police officers and youth to give us a better understanding of how the brain develops and how particularly that transcendso behavior. and that expectation, we -- the better we understand that

process, the better we can police the situation. we send 25 officers to the because yo is pt of the ractive training. it's something we just started doing this past week, actually. really good reports on a e article if youav chance, take a look the at article. it's a very good article, very positiarticle, so we do believe this will, again, enhance our ability to police our city in a way that the community expects us to, and 're really excited about the training. the chronicle as well the you're having another -- >> so you're having another 25 officers training, as well, or the same 25. >> it is a train the trainer scenario where they will be able to train other officers, but we think it'll be a very good thing for our department. >> okay. >> and that basically is it for

my chief's report today. >> commissioner mazzucco: commissioner davis? dav >> so i'm sorry, what was the name of the park that you mentioned with parks and rec? >> peace park. they meet every thuray, friday, saturday. hurts youngblood, -- hearst youngblood and potrero are the three parks that they meet at. and we hope the funding continues. >> it's been in the paper recently that there was a missing person report and there was a woman found dead at san francisco general, and then just like yesterday or today, another body was found at san francisco general. sincehere wa missing ave --

police report, is that something that the police department investigates? i know the sheriff's investigate missing, but do w do any kind of cross investigation? >> in the missing person event, that's our jurisdiction. in one of the ones in the hospital, the one you referred to, it actually happens once the patient was admitted to the hospital for the issue she was brought there for, so once that happens, it's the jurisdiction of the hospital. if it's a custodial situation where there's an arrest, where ersfpd or the sheriff's have a hospital detail, then, it's ruled an in-custody death, then, other protocols and policies take place, but this death happened in the hospital. >> okay. so the sheriff's -- that's what i wanted to know, whose jurisdiction -- >> the first one they'll refer

it to was the hospital because it wasn't the sheriff's jurisdiction, there was no sheriff custody team assigned to it. >> all right. all right. thanks for clearing that up. appreciate that. >> commissioner mazzucco: i just want to say chief, it's at t have you here tonight. i think it's recognitihat a e mte for you to be one of the three finalists in your home department in los angeles, and i think that shows that we made an excellent choice i having you here because the changes you've made, the reforms you've gone through, we cannot forward to lose you, so i want to thank you. i want to congratulate chief and his wife, virgene. his son graduated from medical school on friday, as valedictorian. and not only did he get his

medical degree, he graduated with an mba. >> is that all? >> yeah, an.ch i want tohank youbot for making brandon into the fine young man that he is. he'll be doing his residency in san francis good to have another young man in san francisco. please call the next item. [agenda item read] >> good evening, mr. henderson. >> good evening. >> commissioner mazzucco: how are you? >> great. a couple of things so far in our project list. we have 281 ca - i started doing this recently just as a comparison so we know where we are contextually from last

year. right now, we have -- i track regulathe cases are past 270 .this arave 26 cases past 270 days, meaning the investigations have gone on past the 270 days. last year, we had 128 cases beyond the 270 days. just to put that in context,1 of those c a tolled, typically, if other agencies at the time, they're not tolled, but just explaining what these reports are. i want to thank the chief and the department for training the juvenile brain program that they did. that actually was a really big deal in tf arohat a lot of pple have been working onor a long time, and

it hasea reflected a lot of community input as well as best practices and enhancement he training. i just dn'tant t give short shrift to it, but it's a big deal that a lot of people time, and it's important that that happen forhe cy and e d ent. in the audience is chief of staff, sarah hawkins, and tamara thompson, and senior investigator steve ball in case pisor the department to address during the commission and/or during public comment, i have staff here to accommodate you. we are in the midst of hiring four senior investigators now. we are still down a lawyer from john alden, who was moved into another department. i would like to announce finally that we have filled our

i.t. director position. that's pretty significant for this department. we've had a lot of challenges with our i.t. department in terms of focusing where we needed to grow and bring ourselves up to speed with the rest of the city, so this is going to be a big deal for us, the candidate is now in backgrounds, and i'll let everyone know as n as they come through, but we've got through a lot to try and get this candidate and in accepting the position. we've also made our first ever offer and accepted positito our professionally qualified ualngandidate for our investigators. it's been a big deal, and one of the things that we've been working on is trying to bring our staff up to a bilingual quota to accommodate the communities that we've been serving, and this is the first one that we've gotten through the system. so we're excited about that. i will also say we just had

another training for the use of forc that all of the staff -- a lot of the staff attended in las vegas, and we are in the th the mayor's office and udt with theoard b i'll keep everyone upd onto that, as well. i will say in terms of our staff and their activities, samra spoke last month on street soldiers, and tamara thompson is here with us today, spoke last month at idab. wells high school, know your rights that weproposed, as well. i'm here to answer any questions. >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you, director henderson. commissioner hamasaki? >> commissioner hamasaki: the 270-day mark, how is that set and what are the consequences

for going beyond that, and how does that affect the cases? >> in a nutshell. >> commissioner hamasaki: jump right in. >> in a nutshell, there are requirements from when a case is received to how long we have to respond to an investigation and conclude and make findings. there are exceptions to the one-year rule but because have structured and how we've evolved, we give notice to the department whenever a case goes beyond the 270 day tolling time is an indication that time is starting to run out and where we are in an investigation. we've tracked them beut o -- the issues that i was concerned about when i came int the department was that we had a high number of those cases that would frequently wait until the very last moment to have a resolution, oftentimes leaving

very little time to make changes or modifications within the department, as well, so we've been focused in the last few months in try bring that number down. in some cases, they are tolled, and the time doesn't run, for instance, if there's ongoing litigation in a civil case or the district attorney's office is taking some action. time does not toll in the same way. so does that explain it? >> commissioner hamasaki: it does -- no, i thin it's helpful for the new commissioners to understand because i think the -- the timeline has been up in the news a bit lately, and people may have questions about that. has the department ever lost jurisdiction over case? >> oh -- >> commissioner hamasaki: yes? >> maybe i should chime in. there's been the surprise of the commission.

there's been numerous violations of 3304, not under director henderson, and we were shocked when these cases came forward, there were other caseust you know, after the e.a. closes their case on us, they present it to the san francisco police department or police commission for admonishment. unfortunately they put the police department in a situation where they've had 24, 48 hours to do a follow up investigation and have been unable to do so, and so sometimes dispositions were no choice to get something off there, but there were numerous cases that fell off the radar, and director henderson ran through those cases when he first got in there. that's unacceptable. an attorney blowing a case that's called malpractice. i think where we are, how many last year? counting? >> i was going to say it's in your briefing on case backlog.

last year, there were h405, i think, cases. [inaudible] >> you're right. i'm reading my sre. al in the summary ning what the backlog was. i was a trying to find a percentage, but there was a large -- a substantive percentage of the cases that were beyond the 3304 deadlines that were essentially dead cases that couldt b done an it was a practice in the past to have cases that would sunset, and we have stopp that practice -- i stopped that practice of doing that >> commissioner hakiok. o sen the final point is, ou hav any concern about about losing ases on your docket jurisdiction because of the deadline? >> not immediately, but generally, yes, but we are

approaching them differently so that it's not a last-minute thing, which is why i report out now what tho ce right side and how many of them are still left so of those 27 -- 26 cases, 11 of them are tolled, and the remaining others, the 15 others that are th a talked about weekly to prioritize where they are, what's going to happen next, who's watching the time, how do we have that same situation ta>> commissioner hamasa great. >> that's part of why iall it out. >> commissioner hamasaki: sure. >> thank you. >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you. commissioner dejesus? >> commissioner dejesus: i think i can ask the question. recently, the district attorney said he's not going to press charges in the mario woods case, and i heard there are currently complaints filed in

those cas. are there ongoing investigations? >> i can tell you there are ongoing investigations. we can talk about that case specifically -- >> commissioner dejesus: well, not about the case specifically, i just want to know if you can tell us about that. >> yes, there is an open case that we will have our own independent analysis and report on that case. >> commissioner dejesus: okay. ssioner mazzuc ank you. ngurther for director henderson? thank you, director henderson. it's a learning process, as you can both see. call next line [agenda item read] >> commissioner mazzucco: again, i'm glad to be back in session, we have lot to do in closed session. during the period that we weren'tetinctuall dejesus, myself, and hirsch,

we've been busy during this period of time, but it's good to be b onack the calendar and dealing with our agenda.coissi? >> commissioner hirsch: before commissioner turman stepped off the commission, he had been working on rewriting the discipline matrix for penalties, and he had asked me a few months ago to back him up on that, and since he stepped off and passed away, ive n taken thatponsesility. i'm working with commission staff on that, trying to rewrite it, and then, i will meet with the department, and i'll meet with d.p.a. to get their input, and then, eventually bring it as a commission, and it'll go into me andr a some point. >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you for doing that. >> actually, i with -- ->>ommi dinderson?

>> thank you. i spoke with commissioner turman on this issue, as well, and he mentioned that project both to chi and and the chi and i both have addressed that concern, as well, andould look forward, i think, so resolving that becausthere re inconsistencies in his partment and my department that we need to be on the same page about. >> commissioner hirsch: i'm working on a new set and i'm working on a something that i'm going to distribute to you folks. >> that would be great. that would resolve a lot of conflicts at the end ofese determinations. >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you. commissioner dejesus? >> commissioner dejesus: one of the things that are pending, there'sn early intervention meeting -- i hate saying those words. it's kind of bren, and we keep coming back to it, but it's something we've had many discussions with. i believe that's open, as long as we don't have a quorum, it's open to a of the

common i t- i don't remember what time it is. >> it's from 10:00 to 1:00 on the third floor, and it's open to the ic. >> commissioner dejesus: and then, on junekinor comnce and have a -- june 19, the working group will commence and have a meeting. lo eyon' a quor commissioners can attend that, as well. >> clerk: that's at 1:00 p.m. >> commissioner dejesus: 1:00 p.m., a that's at police headquarters. >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you. commissioner ?ha >> commissioner hama: commissioner dejesus, the working group, was that the working group that at the time president turman was working on? >> commissioner de is:s a continuation of. it's the same- i believe

commissioner melara was i charge of that. i believe commissioner hirsch -- or, commissioner hing and melara were attending, and of course commissioner turman would also attend. with he and melara absent, we need to have commissioners there. it's something i wanted to work on and try and be at, but i wanted to let k wean go as long as the's no four of us there. >> commissioner hamasaki: okay. pardon me for the new guy questions, but are commissioners assigned to working groups, and how does that process take place. >> commissioner mazzucco: commissioners are assigned to to go to other working groups.e dr. marshall was handling the bias group, and we have nobody attending that. it's my understanding i'll be ing hext meeting of that bias group, so you need to

[agenda item read] >> gooenin director. how are you? >> good evening, commissioners, vice president mazzucco, members of the commission, chief, members command staff. i'm kathrin mcguire and chief financial officer of theice department. this evening, i'm asking you to all approve the shift olary savings into a worker's

compensation interdepartmental services budget line. this is a supplemental apprriation, but it doesn't actually add money to our overall budget, it's just a shift among sort of cost avin realized in salaries for this amount is as a result of the individuals who are on worker's compensation and the actual worker's -- and they sose sala are paid out of the er's compensation and the salary shortfall budget hitch hirsch the translation is when officers are off of -- on disability and they're injured, poey're paid out of a separate nd money that we've paid them gets paid -- >> or never gets returned. >> commissioner hirsch: quite a large number this year. >> that's correct.

6.2 million. we've had a number of costly injuries this year. >> commissioner dejesus: i have a question. the 2 million, we have t cover that? >> it will be paid through the end of the fiscal year. so currently, worker's compensation makes the payments, and they bill through each quarter. so they've billed through thuarter three, and qur four, they'll make the final billings, and we need the money in the account by then. >> commissioner mazzucco: any further questions for the director? do i have a motion? >> commissioner dejesus: wait, i do have one more question. so you said this year, we've had a lot of injurie is that compared to last year or -- >> so i can speak the expenses side. i do know that last year, we had about $16.7 milli in worker's compensation costs in the intal spavices work order, and then this year,

we're projected to have about 21 millio coared to last year, it's been a bit more expensive. >> i can add some more detail to see that without disclosing any hipaa information, we've had some officer involved situations, offered runover, shot, that we didn't have the year before, and then, we've also had some significant illnesses that are presumptive illnesses, so it's not been a goodyear because of that. >> commissioner dejesus: thank you. >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you, director mcguire, do i have a motion? >> motion. >> commissioner mazzucco: do i have a second? second. >> commissioner mazzucco: any into the general fund?ng that hearing no cot, public comment is closed. thank you.vor?

call the next line item. [agenda item read] >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you. is there a presentation? >> chief connolly? >> is that operational yet? i thought 3.1 wasn't operational yet. >> i'll strain. >> commissioner mazzucco: good evening, chief connell. >> good evening, president ms., members of the commission, and chief scott. i am here to give very brief presentation on department bulletin 18-033. department order 031 which is our written directives methodology, that is how w writtepolies, procedures and manuals, requires that any bulletin that modifies or demands a general order be brought before the commission prior to being implemented.

department general.01 is in the process of meeting and confer right now, so we are under the process of the old 3.01. so essentially, the department bulletin 18.03 actually just adds a couple of items to the old one. essentially, there's only four criteria that has changed, and there is a 13-year-old general order, 5.09, so over time, things have changed, and this is to change them until we i the time a charge der. actually occurnd there is a determination if the individual has to be hospitalized, and if there is charges going to be brought on that individual by the district attorney. in order for that to happen,

members who bring that custody to the hospital have determined that that person's going to be booked in, we have to author a letter to the sheriff's department through our tigations division saying t nme of the individual, what the charges are, and that we are, in fact, going to file with the district attorney. that's the rite real estate. the sheriff's department actually establishedit, so this is just for our members to adhere to that policy. the third asp of this bulletin, it says ifn in gog charged, tt attorney aelected not to charge, or they're not going to file immediately, how do we notify the sheriff to initiate what they calln out take process? so that's essentially citing the indu for a court date or pentially an interview at a future date, and that's a discussion between the district attorney and the individual investigator about that

custodial situation or ifhat individual is going to be out of custody. and then, finally, what is generating most of this is because the new hospital yoes not have a secure detention facility within it. so this -- any time we have a custodial situation, we haveo l sta s this is to guardospitht a process if that determination needs to be made, trea, nt and the sheriff's department has the criteria ahead of them or before them, they can then take custodial watch of that custody. >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you. maybe explain, what is booking in absentia. >> booking take place in the county jail. any other booking the il woulde hospital environnt, an that's really the only other

environment we would talk about. so if you're absent from the actual process or the actual site facility, in absentia booking via medical ion.coit >> commissioner mazzucco: and there's as times what they cal hospital arraignments, if they can't come to the jail, we've arranments.hey call it i understand it's a drain on our manpower, and we have people at the hospital that we have to have officers guard 24woi'ering,hy w doesn't the sheriff's department do that, and can we reach some sort of agreement because i'm understanding we're losing personnel from district stations, we have e-mail consta l officerssee t'r to go sit at the jail with a patient. they're not really serious charges, but the patient and the subject is in custody for ajor nchars, but they're sick and they have to be there, why do we need to

sit on them, why not the sheriff's? >> that's been a long-standing discussion between the police department and the sheriff's. chief, if you want to speak to that? >> yes, sir.comme iave had man conversationith officer hennessey about that. she has requested budgetary help in that area. as of now, she hasn't received that, but in the meantime, some of the protocols that we hope to iron out are particularly once a person has been rebooked, and they're still in the -- in the hospital or in -- we'd like for -- hopefully we can work outg aement for the sheriff's to take over. prior to booking or the case being filed by the prosecutors, tiply we have to have a detail -- typically, we have to have a detail on that, sfpd, and there are times we've had to stay on that even after the

person got out. with the shortages that she had t jit's b ale for her and her deputies, so we're trying work that outside. thank you. >> commissioner mazzucco: commissioner hirsch? >> commissioner hirsch: yeah, chief, i was wondering, does that reflect the actual practice that we're doing right now, does inythg we're doing right now? >> no, it just provides guidance for the station personnel. tr ng is authoring of the letter. that's only a rect pice in the last year, 1.5 years, where we have to obtain that >> comner : we're just being asked to approveinettlly epractice. >> once t bulletin is approv, that will become the practice hirsch hirsch are we doing something that will affect the practice, that's my -- >> commissioner hirsch: are we doing something that will

affect the practice, that's my question. >> bulletin captures that process hirs process. >> commissioner hirsch: thank you. >> commissioner mazzucco: commissioner hamasaki. >> commissioner hamasaki: one quick question, and i'm not quite sure if i'm understanding this right. on page two of two, understand the section releasing suspects from custo they'r bo inen- it's been a long few days, is there a process that states that the theor weslttorney's office or officers on the hospital watch and notify themthat the declined to refile charges?has and i'm not seeing in here something as far as notifying the subject of the same information. >> notifying the custody? >> commissioner hamasaki: yeah. >> , tha would be the next process. once they make that notification -- the district attorney's declined to prosecute, then there will be a

process by which that individual is releasede849 de. t >> okay. so that's not in this amendment. >> correct, it is not. >> commissioner hamasaki: okay. i don have an answer to that because this is the first time it's ever been addressed. it's a process that occurs naturally. if we're going to let someone go, we'reing t tell them we're going to let them go, but it's not captured in this document. >> commissioner hamasaki: okay. well, it just seems like it would be helpful, when we're spelling out the procedure to have the notification to t hat haseen b taken into custody, as well, although it mayr cunaturay. correct, but there's also times where that individual is released from custodial care but they remain under medical care, so it's just a matter of advising the individual that district attorney has decl ed torosecute at this

: okay. so they -- the individl -- even though it dsn't state in here, the individuals will be advised that the district attorney has declined to file at this time. >> yes. >> commissioner hamasaki: thk you. >> by law, the officer has to issue a 849(b) certificate. >> commissioner hamasaki: rind ai guess that's where the confusion arose with me because they said officers are not to release theubject 849(b). so i'm not sure if that was -- [inaudible] >> commissioner mazzucco: commission commissioner elias? >> commissioner elias: i guess my question is with the investigator assigned to the case, because there are cases where there is no investigator is assigned. >> the investigation is not from the district attorney's office, the investigator is from the police department. >> commissioner elias: okay. and there's someone there? >> it would be an assistant district attorney to make that

determination to either file or refile charges, and then, that would be cveyed to the he r uelyseq tch. >> so thtricis attorney would know who the investigator ice department is who then woue ab to notify the individual who's in custody? >> that's correct. >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you, chief connolly. do i have a motion? >> so moved. >> commissioner mazzucco: do i have a second? >> second. >> commissioner mazzucco: any comment regarding the booking in absentia regarding ddo 509? hearing none, public comment is closed. all in favor? next lne ner maco itd]ea

>> i know you can't answer the question, but i just wish that some point, you could share that with us. also, as i've raised before, what is the status of ra jury offepcer f hoot gs that came in june 2016? that -- the grand jury said that you should have concurrent investigations of officer involved shootings with the sfpd, district attorney, e.p.a., and a citizen member of the public present for the concurrent investigation and not have the sequential investigation that cau the oces to take so long, so my question is, has this been implemented? did that occur in the officer involved shootings? se have rais before, we know state law limits your

do not want this taser licy. at the meeting f tmmis oners, welcome, by the way, who were not there last november , the public was overwhelmingly against san francisco having tasers, and the sunshine task force has just found that that meeting was held improperly with respect to the brown act, and with relatively new police commission coming in, i'd like you all toev desion as was provided time for by commissioner hirsch at the meeting last year and consider not giving san francisco police department tasers, instead, allowing that money to be used for services hepublic rather than shock the. >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you, mr. bernstein.
