2:00 am
i've been involved in this week. commissioner hamasaki. >> commissioner hamasaki: i think i've been talking a lot tonight. i think it's what happens when i miss a meeting. i'll be sure not to do that again. this week, i had the pleasure with commissioner taylor and commissioner brookter to attend a community meeting that was called by the family of the victim of the really, really, just brutal and senseless and sad attack on the grandmother, an 88-year-old woman. and it was a -- i was to say it was a really -- it was a really inspiring night. captain hart was there for the whole time, and he spoke. a number of members -- the head of the p.o.a. was there. but the family, they really took -- took a -- a really beautiful approach to -- to a
2:01 am
horrible situation and focused on the healing and bringing the community together on an issue that could have become divisive and led to bad feelings in the community. i was honored to attend, and i was grateful and the family was grateful to have the other commissioners there, as well. >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you very much. commissioner dejesus? >> commissioner dejesus: so -- so i also have something to report. i went to building 606, we hired a contractor to go out and do some radiation testing. give me a moment, i'll find my notes. i did go to that meeting, so -- here we go. so some of the questions that we had asked, you know, whether they're using the right
2:02 am
equipment, how they're going to do the testing. we talked about the urine test and the things like that. so this guy named bob hirsch was there. he was a certified health physicist, and he came to take measurements. he was going to be there all day yesterday, and he was going to be there today. he met with the personnel and other staff of the department of public health. a lot of people were there. he says it was an interactive process. he brought two different types of survey equipment, one involved in nuclear injuries that reads gam aradiation, and
2:03 am
the second meter -- gamma radiation, and the second he brought measured surface contamination that could lead to internal exposure. so one of the things we talked -- they talked about is where should he start testing. he suggested testing in the crawl spaces, the subterranean areas. he also -- there were suggestions he do the parameter, the play area, the lay down, the ingress, the egress, the locker room area, you know, the vehicles, the tires and things like that. and some people there, they take walks on their break, and so he suggested they can take one of those pieces of equipment with him for walks. so this -- i think this is the first time we're testing for radiation there, but i can't be sure, and this is hired by the department, so this is, like,
2:04 am
our consultant. the downside is down the street is a building owned by the navy, and it's where they did animal testing with isotoeps. -- isotopes. and then to the left, adjacent to the road, is parcel d where the dump was, the fire was, that i assume they buried the animals with the isotopes that they did the experiments on. as you see in today's paper, the navy is suing tetratech because now, there's all this allegation of fraudulent testing for the soil and more importantly, the navy's claiming that it goes all the way through top management, so now it's bringing, calling into question all the top soil, and who's going to pay for it, and our little building's sitting in the middle. and the first thing i noticed,
2:05 am
from 1996, when we first went there, there was no pavement, there was -- yeah, it wasn't paved, there was dirt roads. this was all this -- and this was right when the navy hands it off. it was a superfund site. and now, those roads are paved, so it's a little bit -- it's a little bit different. we are surrounded by areas. but it's a little bit different, although i think when they were doing -- when i hear from my people, when they were doing the excavation of the soil, they were putting it on that paved ground that our people had ingress and egress to. so what i'm going to suggest when we come to reports is we really need to look at the three things that we have out there -- three things we need to make sure that we have safe spaces for, and it's the evidence building. i understand within 90 days, you can have space available. there's a facilities storage locker.
2:06 am
the evoc, where are they going to do their training at, and then, i understand the $8 million shortfall, and they continue to move when they're going to do construction. from 19-20, now it's at 20-21. i'll bring that up on what we suggest for an agenda item. but any way, so i think the guy's competent. he's going to do it. i can't remember when he said the report is going to be done, i don't know how long it's going to take. i'm just concerned that it's so limited, it may not meet all of our needs, but there's some -- there'll be some reports. >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you for doing that, commissioner dejesus. anything further? >> commissioner dejesus: oh, one last thing. i also want to talk about i asked him about the urine tests, and he said that's for people that ingested the material, and he said he didn't think there were any of that. i talked about the isometer, and he said nothing so far
2:07 am
would require having that isometer, things like that, so that's it. >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you very much. please call line item 2-d, commission announcements. >> clerk: we need the update on the working group. >> commissioner mazzucco: oh, who's doing that. commissioner taylor? commissioner taylor? >> commissioner taylor: so commissioner hamasaki took part in the committee on 3.06. it was a good meeting. we got a lot of good, important work done, and we got some forms of agreement i think with everyone in the room. there were things we were able to agree on, and action items that i think the department will be moving forward on, and all of those things were heartening. there's a lot of good work left to be done, and so i think that everyone in the working group
2:08 am
was motivated and positive about getting things done quickly given how important these things are for our victims. so we're going to be meeting in the next couple of weeks -- i forgot when it was. >> clerk: 28th, 9:00 a.m. at the public safety building. >> commissioner taylor: yeah, and hopefully, we can hammer through the remaining items and get this work done quickly so that victim survivors will be able to access what they need quickly. >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you for doing that. >> commissioner hamasaki: can i follow up briefly? you know, when the sexual assault and domestic violence groups appeared here, i think we were pretty shocked. i know i was, and i spoke a little bit out of frustration that night. i just want to say, i attended the meeting, and i -- you know, i really saw good faith efforts by everybody there, and i'd
2:09 am
been a hbit harsh on the department, but i think there was things that had been happening off our radar in the past in getting to this space, so i really do want to commend everybody on coming there with a good attitude and working hard, and i'm excited, the work we're doing. i think we're going to do some -- have a really good outcome here. >> commissioner taylor: yeah. it's clear that the stakeholders were really interested in the outcome of this, so it was a really good experience in any opinion. >> clerk: the next item, item 2-d, reports to the commission. commission announcements and scheduling of commission items identified for consideration at future commission meetings, action. >> commissioner mazzucco: any commission announcements. >> clerk: the commission will be dark for the next two wednesdays, and then our next meeting will be february 6, 2019, in this building in room
2:10 am
400, at 6 pm m. >> commissioner mazzucco: commissioner dejesus? >> commissioner dejesus: well, there's a couple of things. i want to say this right. hold on. let me pull it up. okay. so if the chief can do a report regarding the timeline and the budget shortfall for the new building and for the moves of evidence room at 77 brannan, and rhode island, and evoc, and what the problem is, because with some kind of understanding of what needs to be done. i think there's today in the paper, there's a $418 million windfall to the city. maybe we can try to lobby to get the money that we need to
2:11 am
get the building started and get the evidence out of there, and get the funding started for evoc. we know how much it's going to cost, kind of a road map of what we need to do to start moving it, you know, if it's a resolution or however we need to proceed, so it's something i would ask. >> am. we' -- yes ma'am, we're prepared to do all of that. >> commissioner dejesus: trying to help you. >> thank you. >> commissioner dejesus: the second thing, i'm glad you brought up senate bill 1421, and after you brought that up, i have a lot of questions, so i'm wondering how we schedule a full meeting to have a conference with the city attorney and try and get a better understanding of the law itself? >> i think what's happening is it's still a work in progress. it'll be a closed work session -- no. >> just a reminder, the work
2:12 am
session has to fall within the designated areas of the brown act and this is not one of them. if you have any specific questions, please reach out to me, and i'm happy to get those questions answered. >> commissioner dejesus: okay. i'm just wondering if all of us have questions, but okay. [inaudible] >> please send all your questions to me, and i will make sure that they get answered. >> commissioner mazzucco: okay. great. commissioner taylor? >> commissioner taylor: well, maybe it would be helpful -- there are -- there are -- there are a couple of commissioners that are already steeped in this issue. i'm not one of them, so perhaps it would be helpful to calendar this to have a discussion to see -- [inaudible] >> so just a reminder, the advice from the city attorney's office would not be in public because there would be no attorney-client privilege.
2:13 am
if you send a question by e-mail, we could propose a memo. >> commissioner taylor: i don't think it's anything that needs a memo, i just think i need clarification on some concepts in my brain de. >> -- and i think that commissioner mazzucco and i will be attending something next week, and we can report back to the other commissioners on what the progress is, but it's still any time making. >> commissioner dejesus: yeah, but i think we're talking apples and oranges, you're talking about training, and i'm talking about a confidential memo. >> i would like that and legal advice. >> okay. >> commissioner dejesus: and i know i brought it up last week, and everyone was upset with me, but i do want to calendar the sunshine ordinance task force, you know, just so we can
2:14 am
discuss it, whatever we're going to do with it, we're going to do with it. if we're going to ignore it, we're going to ignore it. but it's a serious allegation of us violating the brown act. any way, so i would like to calendar that. >> commissioner mazzucco: commissioner hamasaki. >> commissioner hamasaki: we have to let the public know what we're doing. and that's what -- as soon as you're done with your process, we'll be able to somehow report out so people understand. >> commissioner mazzucco: yes. >> and what we're doing now is twofold because we have to take the law and put it into practice. it's not just developing procedures how we're going to obey the new law, but it's
2:15 am
procedures. >> commissioner hamasaki: the second issue is -- i -- i -- i think -- you know, i've already had this discussion -- the request to have the sunshine ordinance task force matter discussed. and you know, i was also contacted by the advocates on this i don't have any -- any interest in revisiting any of the votes that were done in the past, but i do think that as a commission, another city body has made a finding against us. i think we should address that, say either yes, we'll do better, or no, we disagree, however it may be, but you know, in the interests of the underlying sunshine, i don't
2:16 am
have a problem discussing it. i -- i -- and i think we should. >> commissioner mazzucco: okay. anything further? public comment. >> clerk: we have public comment on items 2-a through d. >> good evening, commissioners. thank you for this chance to speak. my name is diane atejada, and i am a survivor director of san francisco women against rape. tonight, i'm here to offer our agency's most sincere appreciation for being included in the working group on information of general order 3.16 which ensures access to police reports within five days. we thank you for this opportunity to contribute to the working group, and i also want to take this opportunity to acknowledge the hard work
2:17 am
sfpd has done to enhance its response to sexual assault survivors, including the unit order to ensure special unit victim investigators follow up monthly to ensure the status of their cases. being part of the community group and agency departments has been tremendously meaningful. it is our hope our experience providing sexual assault advocacy will serve to enhance the l.e.p. group and the working group on general order 3.16. we're proud to be working with you on the community's coordinated response to sexual violence. thank you so much for this opportunity. >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you so much and thank you so much for everything you do, more importantly. thank you.
2:18 am
miss upton? >> good evening and happy new year, commissioners. beverly upton, san francisco domestic violence consoretium. the work the language access group just gets more important every day as we know. anybody that watches the news knows that it's dire. we have the right people at the table. i think commander lozar, captain troy dangerfield -- of course zamira keeps us moving in the right direction, having the women at far, the sf domestic violence committee, just so committed to meeting once a month and committed to bringing new ideas at the table but also ideas that we've been
2:19 am
trying to move forward and the goals that the work group have had are coming to -- coming to fruition, and they are. some of the things i think, just the support for bilingual staff, and i know i've talked to the chief and he's heard me before, i really want to raise the status of the bilingual officers. that life saving skill is so important. we would love to see their status raised in the community, more about their successes, domest domestic violence work, trafficking work. so we would love to just see them really raised up in the community. we really also are just enjoying working with the new langl language liaison, p.j. carr.
2:20 am
she's awesome. so you know, this work is slow, but it is moving in the right direction, and the community is counting on us because having that bilingual understanding, certification, and those cultural, you know, knowing the cultural issues in the -- san francisco's so diverse community is so important for victims to come forward. it's also a public safety issue which we really try to get across to people. if your neighbor is afraid to call police, it's your public safety issue. so i just want to thank you for your work. we're so proud to be a part of the deaf and hard of hearing group, and many others. thank you so much. we're headed in the right direction. >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you some. thank you very much, miss upton. any other public comment?
2:21 am
hearing none, public comment's now closed. please call the next line item. >> clerk: item three, discussion and possible action to adopt revised department general order 3.01, written communication system, or take other action, if necessary. discussion and action. >> i think we have gotten our way through 3.01. we've revised it. the cal d.o.j. has reviewed it. i think they had some input. we rerevised it. it includes a matrix where we're laying out a five-year plan largely organized by the department in -- in groupings that make sense because they're related, and we've got our work
2:22 am
cut out for us every year. we've got, i don't know, 125 or so d.g.o.s, and we've broken them up into groups. we have to cover those within the next five years, and we're on our way. so with that, i would hope we can have a motion and pass this and get this -- >> commissioner mazzucco: commissioner dejesus? >> commissioner dejesus: i'd like to officer a friendly amendment. i think it's great work, but the very last page, 3.01.13, a format and approval and routing of the memorandum of understanding and other agency agreements, right now, the way is reads, the understanding shall be routed to the chain of command, the bureau that's affected and the city attorney at the kwigs of the chief of police or designee. we, time and time again have many times brought in front of us the m.o.u. for the f.b.i. that's one that's really important to this body. we have altered it.
2:23 am
matter of fact when the chief got here, we called it off. the m.o.u. with the d.o.a. to review the new o.i.s., it was something that we had to keep asking to come in front of us, and now we're working on the m.o.u. for the school district which is really important to this commission. so i would do it -- where it says at the direction of the chief of police or designee, i would put, comma, and presented to the police commission for approval. i think that's something important and i would ask for approval. >> commissioner mazzucco: commissioner hirsch? >> commissioner hirsch: i have no objection. >> commissioner mazzucco: chief? >> commissioner, would that be every m.o.u., because we have quite a few m.o.u.s, and some of them are probably a lot higher on the commission's radar than others. some of them are just routine, so what i would ask for in terms of discussion -- because the worry is that some of these
2:24 am
m.o.u.'s that are not to the level of those that you described, the process of putting every m.o.u. to the commission, it would slow down a lot of the progress. so, i mean, i'm perfectly understanding of what your concerns are, but maybe we have a threshold of which ones the commission wants to see prior to just a blanket every m.o.u. has to come before the commission. >> commissioner dejesus: maybe we should get an idea of how many m.o.u.s you have. because when we were here, the first time we heard about the f.b.i.'s was when the community came in here with so many grievances. it involved the sanctuary city, and the command staff running that particular program versus the community versus the commission. so i guess when you say -- i don't want you to do something that's overbearing, but i guess i could get an idea of how many
2:25 am
m.o.u.s we're talking about. >> sure. for instance, some of the dojc i do work calls for partnerships with academic institutions. there's an m.o.u. there. it's not to the level of some of ones that you mentioned, but we have to have data sharing agreements and that sort of thing. we route them to the city attorney's office, and they're reviewed. those type of m.o.u.s? i don't know if the commission wants to see them, but if they do, we'll sign them. there are a lot of distinct m.o.u.s that we have to sign that don't rise to the level. i guess we could get a total count that we have. but we have quite a number. >> commissioner dejesus: let me ask you, the school district m.o.u. that you're working on, do you already have one or you're you're you're re -- revising it?
2:26 am
>> commissioner hirsch: maybe we want to get a list of m.o.u.s to approve and get a list of this. >> commissioner dejesus: right. for me, it's more important that it's presented to the police commission for approval, see addendum a, and then, you guys can list it. certainly in my book, the f.b.i., the d.o.j., anything with the city attorney and the school district are important. i don't know what others you have. >> there's a whole host of them. b.a.r.t. -- there's a lot of m.o.u.s, and some of them are just operating agreements with other agencies. some of them are definitely m.o.u.s that i'm sure the commission may have an interest in. >> commissioner dejesus: why don't we do that and present it to the police commission for approval as set forth in addendum a. >> commissioner hamasaki: the one certain i have with that is
2:27 am
i assume there's not a set level or set m.o.u.s that you sign every year, right? they're at things -- as things come up, as you're entering into an agreement with the district attorney's office. i don't know if you can predict what's coming up in the future. do you have a ballpark future? is it ten a year? is it 40 a year? >> well, it varies each year. what we can do it list the type of m.o.u.s we have and what they are and let the commission take a look at that and then decide, but it just -- i'd just offer to it that it's a lot more, and some of them are just m.o.u.s in the course of doing business. you know, for instance, we have an m.o.u. with the school district like you mentioned, but there's other m.o.u.s that
2:28 am
we have agreements with the school district, for example, policing the athletic events? >> commissioner dejesus: so i'm happy with addendum a, and then we can work on as a commission the ones we want to put on there, and you can put any significant m.o.u. that rises to the level of these particular ones. >> commissioner mazzucco: something that rises public intere interest, about the joint terrorism task force, that's something we should be involved? >> commissioner dejesus: if we just say addendum, we can work out the details on the adean dumb. >> commissioner mazzucco: yeah. that's fine. >> commissioner hamasaki: how are you going to come up with when there's no onew ones. >> commissioner hamasaki: it's going to add more time to your process because you're going to have to put it on the calendar,
2:29 am
we're going to have to agree that it's something we want to review, put it onto the next meeting. >> it can be done by a subcommittee of commissioners. i don't think we have to have the whole commission review each one. we can have two commissioners designated to review m.o.u.s, and as m.o.u.s come in, you can send an e-mail to the commissioners, we have these two m.o.u.s. we can figure it out -- let's not do it here, but let's figure out how it works. >> commissioner dejesus: yeah. i think -- >> commissioner mazzucco: commissioner taylor. >> commissioner taylor: i think a list would be helpful because frankly every time you have an m.o.u. for academic research, that would slow down the business and the good work of the department and things that i think most of us don't really care about. so if we could get -- have a list, then, we could decide and agree on what we'd like to see. and as additional m.o.u.s come up, we can supplement the list. >> and if it works for the commission -- >> commissioner dejesus: yeah, that works for me.
2:30 am
>> commissioner mazzucco: director henderson, since you've gotten to the commission, you never slow anything down. >> let me just say this is the reflection of a lot of work and a lot of time, so i'm excited that this is getting to a place where we're ready to take some action. i would just ask that if we have further discussions where we're either reorganizing the d.g.o.s that d.b.a. is allowed to participate because those changes directly impact our data collection systems, as well, based on the old numbers as they are changing or moving arp around, so that's my only request. >> commissioner dejesus: i'm not following. the numbers are new numbered? >> commissioner hamasaki: what are you referring to? >> commissioner dejesus: it's a number, just the number itself. >> right, but as they come up, if we're going to be renumbering new ones, we just want to be a part of that so we can do know what the numbers are -- exactly.
2:31 am
>> commissioner mazzucco: why wouldn't you? zb >> i'm sorry? >> commissioner mazzucco: in light of all the discussion, do i have a motion. >> commissioner dejesus: yeah. i move to accept the d.g.o. 3.01 with a friendly amendment that at the end of the sentence it says comma, and presented to the police commission for approval as set forth -- >> commissioner mazzucco: how about this. with good legal advice, i think what we should do is move to approve without the addendum, and then we can do a commission resolution regarding the addendum. >> commissioner dejesus: no, i'm not comfortable with that. >> so there is a legal problem with approving an item with an addendum when the addendum is not in front of you. that would not be approved by the commission, so we would need the addendum to come back to the commission for approval?
2:32 am
because you cannot approve something you cannot see. >> commissioner hamasaki: so if we write it on a piece of paper, would that suffice. >> do you have a list of those m.o.u.s? i thought the discussion was about bringing back a list so you can decide each one. so we need that list of addendums to attach it and incorporated it by reference into the d.g.o. >> commissioner dejesus: so why don't we continue it until we have a chance to put the data together. >> commissioner mazzucco: any public comment on what didn't happen? hearing none, public comment is closed. hearing none, call the next line item. >> clerk: item four, general public comment. the public is now welcome to address the commission regarding items that do not appear on tonight's agenda but that are within the subject matter jurisdiction of the commission. speakers shall address their remarks to the commission as a whole and not to individual commissioners nor department or d.p.a. personnel. under police commission rules of order, during public comment, neither police or
2:33 am
d.p.a. personnel nor commissioners are required to respond to questions presented by the public but may provide a brief response. individual commissioners and police and d.p.a. personnel should refrain however from entering into any debates or discussion with speakers during public comment. >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you. welcome. >> my name is shawn walker, and i'm a long time resident of district ten, bayview, and i wanted to come before the commission tonight to speak to what i think is a policy and then also the person. we have recently had a rotation out of our captain. i see captain ford here. i didn't realize he was going to be here, and so it's a little bit intimidating to compliment someone when they're behind you. >> commissioner mazzucco: he'll accept it. >> but i don't know if it's a policy, but i want you let you know that i am very troubled by the fact that as soon as the community trains and teaches a
2:34 am
captain how to serve it, how to serve the community and how to work with the community stakeholders, they're rotated out. and so i understand that may be good for the individual person, but it's not good for the neighborhood. and i don't know if that's a commission policy or a staff policy, but it doesn't work for us. and -- and this is no -- no statement about any captains who came before him or the new captain that we have now. we have good working relationships with people because we teach them how to serve the community, but that community has a lot of needs when it comes to police service, and we need someone who is going to stay and have the commission and the department allow them to do so. captain ford -- and we're talking about the person. but captain ford really was the right person for that neighborhood, that he came with the educational gravitas, but he also same with the community
2:35 am
cred to be able to serve the community in a way that has not been done quite sometime. i just wanted to come to the commission and let you may about my dismay. it's not about the current captain. she's fine. but that policy of rotating captains out and this particular captain is a problem for the neighborhood. thank you. >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you very much, and that was an issue that was brought up many times by many different d.o.j. -- many different folks, and it's difficult. i think every district station loves their captain, and it's a great thing when we see that, but you know, captains do rotate. we don't do -- that's policy and procedural, and we're operational. a lot of times, captains move onto other things as they develop their career. it's never easy, but captain matthews is really good. she's pretty darn good, and obviously, the chief listens to the community, as does the
2:36 am
commission. when they get that rank of captain, they're not around much longer at that rank, and they move quicker to the top. >> and we love chief scott. >> he's not going anywhere. >> but here's what i want you to know, and then i will take my seat. i think there's some folklor around bayview being a training station. it may be folklore, but that's the community belief. you cut your teeth in the bayview, and then you leave. what i'm communicating to you, commissioners, and to the chief, that the bayview doesn't believe that's the case, and you have to -- >> commissioner mazzucco: we can get in trouble because we're having a dialogue. >> there needs to be some public conversation around that. >> commissioner mazzucco: no, i got it. thank you for your advice. next speaker, please. good evening, sir. >> good evening, commissioners, chief, director.
2:37 am
some of you all may know me, some of you may not. i'm sean richards, executive director against brothers against guns. been around 25 years. let me say this to you guys. i've seen so many different commissions in my last 25 years and so many different mayors and so many different directors. i want to say that what leshawn just mentioned about the changing of the guard, i think we're okay where we're at with the new captain, but i think it needs to told in input to the community what's going to happen, and not just switch out. i love chief scott, and he's my guy. he's a hard worker, and we talk on record, and we talk off record, but at the same time, we have to give the community some say-so, some input on what's going on. now as you guys now, we had two homicides in less than 24 hours, four people shot. and these are young men that i work with and i know
2:38 am
personally, and to me, that district has to be more considered and concentrated on on what's going on with the violence because it can easily spill over to different community does, such as the mission, such as the western addition, such as the o.m.i., and then, other parts of the city, we don't want to see happen, we don't want to see happen, period. so i have created a community and captains meeting once every two weeks, and the chief attends many of them, and i want to get you guys start coming out, commissioners. and we have them at different police stations throughout the city and county of san francisco. so i want you guys to know the next one will be february 5. i will get in touch with the secretary, with the sergeant, and let her know exactly where we're going to have this meeting at, and we'll move them around. i'm a big fan of chief scott, i'm a big fan of captain matthews, i'm a big fan of captain ford, but i just think,
2:39 am
commissioners, that you have to do a better job of letting the public know when the captain is being transferred out. and so i want to say in closing that with all of what's going on in the city, let me just be very clear, because a lot of folks in the community don't know who you guys are. you guys have to be more present in the community. i know you guys are from the community and from san francisco, but you guys have to be more present in the community so folks can know and -- and sometimes, you're going to have to get the anger and the venting, too, but take it. trust me, when there's a police involved shooting, he takes it. so sometimes as a commissioner, you're going to have to sit there and take it and understand what the community have to say. so with that being said, i will be in touch with the sergeant and let her know about the next
2:40 am
available meeting that we're going to have, the community and captain's meeting. look forward -- >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you. >> commissioner dejesus: thank you. thank you, shawn, and you look forward to going to one of your meetings. >> commissioner mazzucco: miss brown. >> good evening, everyone. thank you, shawn, for that, because we need to bring more awareness to our children getting murdered on the street every day. and as you know, shawn brought up, we have a healing circle with mothers and fathers shot, and those two men, edward powell lost his daughter some years ago, and then, he loses his son, and the other boy that's shot that is still living, they are a part of our healing circle, and this needs to stop, you know? i've been coming here for all these years, thinking about what happened to my son, and we're losing all our other
2:41 am
children out there. but with that, i'd like to use the overhead. again, as i come here every year concerning my son, aubrey abercaso who was murdered august 14, 2006, and it 's not working. still, today, there's no -- there's no justice for his homicide. i carry these because this is all i have left to bring to the police commission. at one time, i was getting help, and now, it's 2019. this is going to be the 13th year -- yeah, the 13th year, and i continue to ask to help
2:42 am
us put some posters out there so that we as mothers and fathers don't have to climb on cars, go to people's houses, commit to retaliation if we can get these cases solve does. that's why it's a -- solved. that's why it's a rippling effect, and these homicides continue to happen because no one is doing anything. i feel it's because we're people of color and we're not looked at as if we were another color. i always say if my son was a little white boy, maybe his case would be solved, but he's not, he's an african american boy, and a lot of african american boys are getting killed every day, and that bothers me, and especially if it's mothers that i know. so i'm reliving this -- and fathers that i know, i'm reliving this. and as i bring up, we do have
2:43 am
the healing circle, and we do it every second and fourth thursday of the month. this is something we shouldn't be doing. we should be going to graduations, not funerals. but again, i'm still asking for justice for my son, and i have to come here every thursday. so help us get some justice for our children, especially these unsolved homicides so that some mothers like myself can heal. thank you. >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you, miss brown. if anybody has any information regarding the murder of aubrey abrakasa, please call the anonymous tip line at
