>> growing up in san francisco has been way safer than growing up other places we we have that bubble, and it's still that bubble that it's okay to be whatever you want to. you can let your free flag fry he -- fly here. as an adult with autism, i'm here to challenge people's idea of what autism is. my journey is not everyone's journey because every autistic child is different, but there's hope. my background has heavy roots in the bay area. i was born in san diego and

adopted out to san francisco when i was about 17 years old. i bounced around a little bit here in high school, but i've always been here in the bay. we are an inclusive preschool, which means that we cater to emp. we don't turn anyone away. we take every child regardless of race, creed, religious or ability. the most common thing i hear in my adult life is oh, you don't seem like you have autism. you seem so normal. yeah. that's 26 years of really, really, really hard work and i think thises that i still do. i was one of the first open adoptions for an lgbt couple. they split up when i was about four. one of them is partnered, and one of them is not, and then my biological mother, who is also a lesbian. very queer family. growing up in the 90's with a

queer family was odd, i had the bubble to protect me, and here, i felt safe. i was bullied relatively infrequently. but i never really felt isolated or alone. i have known for virtually my entire life i was not suspended, but kindly asked to not ever bring it up again in first grade, my desire to have a sex change. the school that i went to really had no idea how to handle one. one of my parents is a little bit gender nonconforming, so they know what it's about, but my parents wanted my life to be safe. when i have all the neurological issues to manage, that was just one more to add to it. i was a weird kid. i had my core group of, like, very tight, like, three friends. when we look at autism, we

characterize it by, like, lack of eye contact, what i do now is when i'm looking away from the camera, it's for my own comfort. faces are confusing. it's a lack of mirror neurons in your brain working properly to allow you to experience empathy, to realize where somebody is coming from, or to realize that body language means that. at its core, autism is a social disorder, it's a neurological disorder that people are born with, and it's a big, big spectrum. it wasn't until i was a teenager that i heard autism in relation to myself, and i rejected it. i was very loud, i took up a lot of space, and it was because mostly taking up space let everybody else know where i existed in the world. i didn't like to talk to people

really, and then, when i did, i overshared. i was very difficult to be around. but the friends that i have are very close. i click with our atypical kiddos than other people do. in experience, i remember when i was five years old and not wanting people to touch me because it hurt. i remember throwing chairs because i could not regulate my own emotions, and it did not mean that i was a bad kid, it meant that i couldn't cope. i grew up in a family of behavioral psychologists, and i got development cal -- developmental psychology from all sides. i recognize that my experience is just a very small picture of that, and not everybody's in a position to have a family that's as supportive, but there's also a community that's incredible helpful and wonderful and open and there for you in your moments of

need. it was like two or three years of conversations before i was like you know what? i'm just going to do this, and i went out and got my prescription for hormones and started transitioning medically, even though i had already been living as a male. i have a two-year-old. the person who i'm now married to is my husband for about two years, and then started gaining weight and wasn't sure, so i we went and talked with the doctor at my clinic, and he said well, testosterone is basically birth control, so there's no way you can be pregnant. i found out i was pregnant at 6.5 months. my whole mission is to kind of normalize adults like me. i think i've finally found my calling in early intervention, which is here, kind of what we do. i think the access to irrelevant care for

parents is intentionally confusing. when i did the procespective search for autism for my own child, it was confusing. we have a place where children can be children, but it's very confusing. i always out myself as an adult with autism. i think it's helpful when you know where can your child go. how i'm choosing to help is to give children that would normally not be allowed to have children in the same respect, kids that have three times as much work to do as their peers or kids who do odd things, like, beach therapy. how do -- speech therapy. how do you explain that to the rest of their class? i want that to be a normal experience. i was working on a certificate and kind of getting think early childhood credits brefore i

started working here, and we did a section on transgender inclusion, inclusion, which is a big issue here in san francisco because we attract lots of queer families, and the teacher approached me and said i don't really feel comfortable or qualified to talk about this from, like, a cisgendered straight person's perspective, would you mind talking a little bit with your own experience, and i'm like absolutely. so i'm now one of the guest speakers in that particular class at city college. i love growing up here. i love what san francisco represents. the idea of leaving has never occurred to me. but it's a place that i need to fight for to bring it back to what it used to be, to allow all of those little kids that come from really unsafe environments to move somewhere safe. what i've done with my life is work to make all of those situations better, to bring a little bit of light to all those kind of issues that we're still having, hoping to expand

into a little bit more of a resource center, and this resource center would be more those new parents who have gotten that diagnosis, and we want to be this one centralized place that allows parents to breathe for a second. i would love to empower from the bottom up, from the kid level, and from the top down, from the teacher level. so many things that i would love to do that are all about changing people's minds about certain chunts, like the transgender community or the autistic community. i would like my daughter to know there's no wrong way to go through life. everybody experiences pain and grief and sadness, and that all of those things are temporary. >> in november of 2016, california voters passed proposition 64. the adult use of marijuana act. san franciscans overwhelmingly

direct impact, that money has a ripple impact through the economy as well. >> it is not just about retail. it is not just about the sensor. is about manufacturing pick a lot of innovative manufacturing is happening here in san francisco in addition to other parts of the state as well as the cultivation. we should be encouraging that. >> there is a vast array of jobs that are going to be available in the newly regulated cannabis industry. you can start at the top tier which a scientist working in testing labs. scientists working at extraction companies. and you work towards agricultural jobs. you have ones that will require less education and you look towards cannabis retail and see traditional retail jobs and you see general management jobs. those things that are similar to working at a bar restaurant or working at a retail store. >> we are offering, essentially, high paid manufacturing jobs. typical starting wage of 18-$20

an hour, almost no barrier to entry, you do not need an education. >> that means that people who do not have college educations, working-class people, will have an opportunity to have a job at cultivating cannabis plants. there's a whole wide array of job opportunities from the seedling to the sale of the cannabis. [♪] >> last year, they said 26 million people came to san francisco. >> the tourism industry continues to be very robust here and the city and county of san francisco is about a billion-dollar industry. >> if we use a conservative cannabis user adoption rate to 15% that means 4 million tourists want that means 4 million tourists want to purchase cannabis. and we need to be ready for th them. >> in 2015, as adult use legalization efforts gained momentum in california, the supervisors created the san francisco cannabis state legalization task force. this task force offered to

research and advice to the supervisors, the mayor and other city departments. >> we knew that adult use legalization was coming to the ballot and stat that would bring with it a number of decisions that the city would have to make about zoning and regulation and so forth. and i decided at that time, at a know it was a great, that rather than have a fire drill after the ballot measure passes, as suspected it would, we should plan an event. so i authored a task force to spend a year studying it and we made it a broad-based task force. >> we prepared ourselves by developing a health impact assessment and partnered that with key stakeholder discussions with washington, oregon, colorado, to really learn lessons from their experience rolling out both adult and medicinal cannabis. >> within days of the passing of

the proposition, ed lee called on agencies to act decisively. >> he issued an executive order asking the department of public health, along with planning and other city departments to think through an internal working group around what we needed to do to consider writing this law. >> we collectively, i would say that was representatives from g.s.a., as well as the mayor's office, met with a lot of departments to talk through what prop 64 and the implementation of prop 64 it meant to them. >> the mayor proposed an office of cannabis, a one-stop shop for permits allowing operators to grow and sell cannabis. >> he wanted a smart structure. he wanted a regulatory structure that ensured that kids didn't have access and community's were safe and that consumers were safe. and he wanted to ensure, more importantly, it was a regulatory structure that encouraged

diversity and inclusivity. >> this is an office that will be solely charged with a duty of wanting not only the policies that we create, implementing and enforcing them, but also executing the licenses that are needed. we're talking about 20 different licenses that will put us into compliance with what is happening on the state level. >> this is a highly, highly regulated industry now, at this point. we have anywhere from 7-10 departments that will be working with these industry participants as they go through the permitting process. that is a lot of work at a loss of coordination. we are creating a permitting process that is smart and is digital. it is much easier for the user and for community input, and is less mired in bureaucracy. >> for the first time ever in san francisco history, standalone licenses are available for all aspects of the

nonretail side of the cannabis industry. now, a cultivator can go in to the department of building inspection and to the department of health and say, with this first registered and temporary license, and then what will eventually be a permanent license, this is the project, this is what i am going to do. >> very rarely in city government do we interact with industries that are asking to be regulated. these guys want to be regulated. they want to be compliant. they want to work with the city. that is rare. >> san francisco has created a temporary licensing process so that the pre-existing operators here in san francisco can apply for a temporary state licensed. >> we have taken teams of up to 12 inspectors to inspect the facility twice a day. we have been doing that with the department of building inspection and the department of public health. and the fire department. >> it is really important for

the industry to know that we are treating them like industry. like manufacturing. like coworkers pick so that is the way we are approaching this from a health and safety and a consumer protection network. this is just the way practice happens with restaurants or manufacturing facilities. >> because there are so many pieces of industry that people haven't even thought about. there are different permits for each piece. you have to set up a permitting system for growing, for manufacturing, for testing. for delivery. for retail. you have to make sure that there is an appropriate health code. certainly the regulation of alcohol in terms of restaurants and retail it's probably a model for how this industry will be regulated as well, both on sale and consumption. >> it is completely uncharted territory. there is a blessing and a curse with that. it is exciting because we are on

a new frontier, but it is very nerve-racking because there's a lot at stake. and quite frankly, being san francisco, being the state of california, people are looking to us. >> we hope that cannabis does become more of an accepted part of society in the same way that alcohol is, the same way coffee is. >> it is a very innovative fear, particularly around manufacturing. san francisco could be an epicenter. >> san francisco can be a leader here. a global leader in the cannabis movement and set a bar just to other communities and cities and states and this nation how it is done.

also present is chief william scott of the san francisco police department and standing in for paul henderson is sandra hawkins from the department of police accountability. >> good evening, everybody. and we are ready now for the first item on our agenda. line 1a, reports to the commission, discussion. chief's report. weekly crime trends, provide an overview of offenses occurring in san francisco. significant incidents, chief's report limited to a brief description of the specific incidents. commission discussion will be limited to determining whether the calendar any commission. provide a summary of planned activity and events occurring

since the previous meeting. this will include a brief overview of any unplanned events or activities occurring in san francisco having an impact on public safety. commission discussion on unplanned events and activities, the chief describes women be wie limited tor a future meeting and presentation of early intervention system, eis, fourth quarter, 2018 report. >> good evening, chief. >> good evening, president and commission and chief of staff. sarah hawkins, sorry. good evening, everybody. i'll start off today with the crime statistics' update. please report again overall violent crimes down 17% and total violent crimes -- i'm sorry part one violate crimes down 17% and total violent crimes down 19% and homicides

are down and we had eight this time last year as opposed to five last year to date. our last homicide reported over a month ago. four out of five homicide cases have been cleared. and respect to gun violence, we have had a 25% reduction in gun violence, so shooting incidents, anyway, 2018 over 2017. our property crime is also down. we're 17% down and property crime and this includes burglaries, motor vehicle thefts, including auto burglaries and arsons. auto burglaries are down 22% in 202018 compared to 2017 and we'e focusing on that issue in terms of focusing on the hot spots around the city where auto burglaries occur accordingly.

overall, the crime picture is looking very pleasing and we will keep our eye on it and keep the strategies going that we deploy. i have one significant case, a fraud case to report to the commission and public. there may be other victims out there, but this is a case of what is known as a pigeon drop scam in which the suspects usually offer some type of financial incentive for the victim to mingle the suspect's money with the victim's money. under the guise of they're able to bank it or unable to the money in the bank. usually that's the fraud and basically -- usua usually they y on elderly person and once the victims the money in the bag, there's an exchange of the bag and the victim usually finds out that there's a shredded paper or

the like in the bag so we've had 11 of those crimes recently and we were able to make an arrest on the suspects. multiple counts were filed on this case, so if there are any other victims that fall prey to this scam, please give us a call and we do believe that they're particularly are other victims out there and again, people looking to scam vulnerable population including the elderly. so that investigation has not concluded yet. although we have enough to file on some of the cases that we made arrests on. we had a busy week in terms of traffic. i know i appealed to the public last week to please pay attention to your driving, your walking, your bicycling activities. we had six major injuries, traffic collisions over the past week and the most serious of which was a accident or collision at the 500 block of

john mere drive and skyline where a mother and her 14-year-old daughter were both struck by a vehicle. the driver stayed at the scene, was just a really unfortunate incident and the 14-year-old young lady is in critical condition with life-threatening injuries. so she's still in the hospital and i don't believe at this point she's regained consciousness. again, appeal to the public to please pay attention to the rules of road, particularly if you're bicycling, walking, and driving. it's really important that everybody shares a road and we've had a busy couple of weeks with traffic collisions so we are out enforcing the traffic codes of the city and the state and we will be out there. so we also will be out there to educate. and to make sure people understand what infractions tend to get people in harm's way in tems of traffic violations. >> i'm sorry, how old was the

person, the hit-and-run? >> which one? the person driving the car? >> no, the person who is unconscious. >> 14 years old. so it's a really unfortunate situation. we have a developers conference and the estimated is 12,000 and we're deployed to the area there will b.there will be a rally byr bernie sanders and we'll be deployed to assist the federal park police on that. don't have an idea right now of how many are attending but it's getting a lot of activity on social media so probably a pretty good attendance for that event. and those are the highlights,

commissioners, for this week. i believe the next item -- if you have any questions before i move on? >> any questions from the commissioners? i don't see any. >> i will present the next item on the chief's report and that's ththe early intervention proceeding. >> good evening. commissioners, chief scott and mr. henderson, i'm the sergeant over the eis unit and i'll be doing an overview of the fourth quarter eis system. i believe you should have it in front of you. is that correct? >> yes. >> it's on page 2 and you'll see, basically, an overview of

the ten indicators that we do track. >> can you use that microphone? thank you. >> better? the ten indicators we use for thest is systethe eis system ant activates an eis aflir alert fre system. on page 3, you'll see a flow chart of how the eis system works. it's activated in the system and reviewed by the eis unit. we look forward to see if it's a valid alert. if it is a valid alert, it's sent to the stations to be administered to the officer. they determine if there's a pattern of at-risk behaviour. if they determine there isn't one, they go over the alert with the officer themselves going over each item, each indicater and they send it back with a recommendation to close it. my office goes true the eis alerts to see if we agree with it. if we agree we'll close the

alert and if not, we'll send it back and we ask that the captain of the station go through the alert themselves and open up an intervention on that officer. to the right, you'll see the associated factors. they are not tract and aim. it's something the sergeants administering the alerts to look through while going through alerts. on page 4, there's a break down of the types of alerts. so fourth quarter 2018, alerts by type, we had 95 alerts triggered from three uses of force and dpa in six months and 34 with five indicators of six or more and two are four dpe in a 12-month period and six for a total of 193. members receiving alerts, we had 137 members that received at least one alert, ten members received three, 36 received two

and 91 received one. page 5 we'll talk about the interventions. so in 2015 we opened nine interventions and in 2014, we opened four and 2017, three and in 2018, we opened five currently that are still active. the five that are open currently, two are for failure to appear in court and three of them are for tactile communication. for the court ones, we do a lot of mentoring where the supervisors are keeping track of the court dates for the officers. they make sure that the calendars are filled out, both for the supervisor and for the officer to make sure they do attend court. for the technical communication, we do utilize a post certified class which is an online class on tactile communication as well as we send them to the academy to work with the academy staff on lose force.

on useless force. page 6, we're looking at the alert which is the actual paper that goes out with all ten indicators on it. so this one here is a breakdown where you can compare fourth quarter 2017 to fourth quarter 2018. and in 2018, we had 193. so the alerts did go down from last year. on page 7, you have fourth quarter alerts by station, mission station receiving 40 and park station received three and graphed there for you on the right. page 8, fourth quarter alerts by unit and it's fun to remember that alerts go with the officer and don't go true the station and if anyone officer get injured to the medical liaison unit it shows they have on this paper they have three alerts and

that's because officers that are transferred, the alerts follow them. page 9, these are the alerts by station trailing for the last 12 months and you have an overview of every month for 2018. we had a total of 791 alerts for the ten district stations. and on page 10, we are now switching to indicators and now you're looking at the indicators which are the ten uses of force, civil suits, ia complaints, you're looking at 2016, at the top there, compared to 2017 and 2018 broken down by quarter. below that we have broken down how many officers, how many sworn officers we have. so a you can see 2018 further quarter, 2,330 officers total. and then in 2018, a total of 3,582 indicators. and an indicater such as a use of force, even though it looks like a high number, that indicater is a use of force that

could involve multiple officers at the same time. so a use of force incident has multiple officers on scene. so that's multiple indicators. so that's why that number seems inflated. >> what page are you on? ten in. >> just went to page 11. we've got questions. where the numbers you were talking about on ten. >> you were saying some of the incidents, multiple officers and it's reflected with multiple reports and what exactly on the power point were you referring to. >> on page 10? so at the top on the left, you have 2016, 2017, 2018. so if you look at fourth quarter 2018, 742 indicators, that 742 indicators is not a scene or an incident. that is the number of indicators that were sent out. mission station had a big

demonstration and force used by ten officers. that's one incident but that would be ten indicaterrers. indicaters. so that's why you're seeing ten indicators from one incident. it could be an inflated number. >> let's just finish the report and we'll take all the questions. >> indicators over the three years for each indicater so you can see ois, o i.d. and all ten broken down for the last ten years and these are indicators, not incidents. so when you see 21 for 2018 and that's the number of officers involved and we had five ois in 2018 with 21 members involved in those five incidents. page 12, fourth quarter 20 indicators by station.

>> you'll see central had 91 uses of forces, one iad complaint for a total of 110 and then it's broken down by station underneath. page 13, indicators by station trailer forethe last 12 months. so this is the full month of 2018 for indicators by station. mission station having 475, park 122 and a total of 2,857. page 14, tout breaking down a little bit of the use of force. first quarter -- so at the top on the left, you have the use of force incidents for all four quarters. fourth quarter 2018, 301 incidents involving 505 members with the count of 354 subjects involved in the 301 incidents, for a total of 635 applications of force.

and down below that, you're going to see it broken down with fourth quarter for incidents, members, subjects and the applications of force and then we've compared it by total uses of force and then without pointing of a firearm. and then it's graphe graphed oue right for you. page 15 is applications of force for 2018. broken down by types of force, point of a firearm being 55% of the uses of force used at 1,489 spike strips at 13. and page 16 is a comparison by quarter. so if you look at pointing of a firearm for first quarter, there is 183 and the second quarter had 163 which is an 11% decrease and you look at the third quarter which is 144 which is a 12% decrease to the second

quarter. and fourth quarter had 150, and that's a 4% increase from the third quarter. that's how to read that slide. >> thank you. i have a couple of questions before i turn it over to other commissioners. i looked at this earlier today and there are numbers that just jump out at me and i'm wondering how the department deals with these numbers if you do it all. if you don't, i'd like to know why. page 6, we see that use of force is about 50% of all of the alerts. and on page 9, we see that the missing station has by far the most alerts for a station in a trailing 12-month period. i'm just wo wondering, what does the department do with numbers like this because they jump out at us. >> so mission station is usually

the one that's always number one because of their call lion. they have the most calls and based on the number of calls they're responding to equates over to the number of indicators that that station receives. >> so are the calls there, were they, for example, be twice bayview or twice the tenderloin to match pretty much the alerts? >> it varies allot. a lot. we did run the numbers comparing the stations as far as indicators this week and you just see a little bit of a scattered pattern no matter which station you're at. sometimes they're high, sometimes low and evens out to where this is your average. >> any way to analyze whether this is a cultural issue or are they inclined to use more force than one of the other stations?

>> commissioner, so once we get the data, then it's what we do with the data, so yes, there are things we look at in terms of the issues. the system won't tell us that, but you start to look at things like supervision and leadership and what the patterned an pattes are. there are multiple incidents where you have multiple officers which tends to spike the numbers a little bit. those are issues that we can draw down on and with d we do lt those things. it won't necessarily be something that will be apparent based on our system. but we can and we do look at those things. >> i would just think that any is report would trigger inquiry because it does raise numbers that you can't analyze or understand just on their face. >> right, exactly. you are absolutely right. and it's is incumbent upon us to

take a look at what those numbers mean in that context so there are cultural issues or maybe training issues that might impact these numbers one way or another in terms of doing business a different way or better way or more efficiently. that's up to the management or leadership to take this data in and take it to that next step. and i will add, too, that the commissioner, we are looking at other systems that give -- there are systems out there that gives additional capabilities to do a little bit more of that from a technical point of view than our system is capable of. so you have to human eyes on it but there are other systems out there we're considering and we just had a presentation today and we're going to follow up on that research to help us get better in this area. >> ok. vice president taylor.

>> hi. i've got three questions. first on slide ten, i'm looking at the able to the right. indicators per member. what is you does your zero reprt there? >> the number of officers that did not receive any type of indicators. so for instance, 2018, you're looking at fourth quarter, the bottom row. there were not 1,814 members out of the 2,330 that received no indicators at all. >> got it. >> then you have 370 that received one. >> ok, understood. now looking at slide 11, the next slide, there seems to be a pretty staggering increase in officer-involved shootings over the last three years. am i reading that correctly? so going from five in 2016 to -- or indicators.

>> these are indicators. >> yes, i apologize been 21 in 2018. to what do you attribute that? >> so these are just the officers involved at the scene is what we're looking at here. so it's not a reflection of how many ois there were. >> ok. >> so for instance, there were five in 2018 and of those five, there were 21 officers involved in the five. >> where does it say there were five in 2018? it does not. i just know the numbers. so this is not an indication of the number of shootings. >> they are indicators for the purpose of eis and sending out alerts. >> do you know to fill in the blanks on in. >> you just know 2018? >> i know 2018. >> there were seven in 2017,

commissioner, seven. >> are you able to identify patterns with officers? if you have the same officers involved year after year, are you able to track that? is that part of the work being done? >> we are able to track that, yes. every time an alert goes out, the system tracks. so it's there permanently. why it was triggered for that particular summer. officer. if they tri trigger again, we kw to look back to see what the patterns are and a lot of times they're just for that quarter or particular period so the supervisors that are called back and ask questions, we're able to relay, they're prior alerts were for failure to appear in court. while this next one was because of use of force so that way they get a broader picture ba the br.

>> are you responding that's consistent throughout the department? so if it's the same officer year after year involved in incidents like these, is the supervisor's response in the mission consistent with the response in park? can you give us a sense of what happens when you have the same officers given these alerts, giving off these alerts. >> are you asking do officers get alerts, alert and alert each time? >> i'm making the assumption some officers have gotten alerts more than once and i want to know what the response is and if that response is consistent across the department. >> they look at a full year. so we look at a 365 calendar year and myself, i get an alert because i have three uses of force in three months in march. so i'm going to get an alet. my captain will get an alert

back to march of 2018. so they'll be looking at march 2018 to march 2019. and all of my indicators are listed on there. whether it's my use -- all ten indicators. so they're looking at the entire year of what my work has been. that they're supposed to research everything on that year. they look at all of the uses of force, pull the use of force reports and review them and look at the body camera of the incident. we send them the torque claims and civil suits and also the dpa complaints so they have a whole package of something to go through. they go through each alert and each indicater and make a decision on that. they're not investigating but looking at a picture and looking for a pattern of that risk behaviour with what's on that alert. >> i guess what i'm getting at, is that decision of what to do, kind of dependent on the individual supervisor or the individual station? or are there guidelines or some consistency across the department as to how you respond

when you have officers having multiple alerts? >> there are consistency. the db lies out how to go through the eis indicators, what to do the next step and my name and my email and my phone number on that db to call me for any type of question that they might have. but yes, they go through it the same way at mission as part. >> you're keeping track of what the responses are? >> yes. >> this may be a rhetorical question but if you had to create an executive summary off of the 16 slides, what does this say?

>> well, it's kind of saying that our alerts are going down at the moment. why it's going down is kind of why we have the university the chicago. in 2016, we ruled out body camera and in 2016 we also at the same time required that the supervisors sit down with every officer and go through that alert so now you're seeing a pattern of how to gauge something that hasn't happened. they're sitting down and did that face to face talk stop some type of pattern or at-risk behaviour in the future? so it's hard to gauge that, but those two things happen the same year and now we're seeing a drop in the as alerts. >> and i know as we move forward and really, like i say, it's a rhetorical question working with the university of chicago, but ensuring there's that sort of language, some sort of executive summary in the beginning and/or at the end so that members of

the public, they see the numbers as we see the numbers and to the commissioner the numbers jump out because there are so many but if there are summaries that the indicators are dropping and that would be something to think about as we move forward. >> commission alias. >> i want to turn your attends to page 3, where it has the list of associated factors. and some of the factors that are listed, i'm wondering how those factors, sick pay not protected by federal or state laws, voluntary overtime work, how do those factors predict whether an officer will use force or not? >> it's not whether they use force for not but whether there's at-risk behaviour or something happening with that officer that needs to be addressed by the supervisor, not necessarily use of force. for instance, when theer
