you work in an office designing offices. what's your least favorite part of your own office or your own office building? >> um, i would say probably the least favorable thing about our office building is that it's kind of old. our office building was back in the 1970s. but we are really happy to announce that we are just starting plans for a brand-new headquarters at ki. it's something we've been looking forward to doing in the future. and i'm hoping in the next couple two, three years we'll be able to break ground on a new ki headquarters. we understand that it takes time and resources and money to build out spaces to do architecture. even to buy furniture. so, if you're going to do it, you better have a very solid workplace strategy in hand and you better to be able to answer why is this important to the organization. for us, it's about attracting and retaining talent. that's always been our number one priority, especially younger talent. i don't think everybody comes out of college thinking that they want to work in the o

the officer. in addition, most of these actions are successfully de-escalate it every day whether deputies getting no credit in the public eye. so mr. chairman, it is clear to me we need to do a better job of collecting and reporting data on use of force against officers so we can better understand the trends and inform our training. that is why i support senator grassley's a bipartisan legislation, the improving of law enforcement officer safety and wellness through data act. it would lead to more comprehensive data collection. anyone who signs up for this job knows they will face physical violence at some point. but even though violence is part of the job, that does not mean we have to accept it. with the constantly work to counter it, too de-escalate it if possible, to discourage it, and to deter it, but to make sure people responsible for face real consequences. i also believe it is critically important that we speak with one loud and united voice and make clear to the public, the place to fig

when officers broke down the door to ms. taylor's apartment, that person, believing that intruders were breaking in, immediately fired one shot. two officers immediately fired a total of 22 shots into the apartment. one of those shots hit taylor in the chest and killed her. we allege that the defendants knew their actions of falsifying the affidavit could create a dangerous situation and we allege these unlawful acts resulted in ms. taylor's death. the charges announced today also allege that the officers responsible for falsifying the affidavit that led to the search took steps to cover up their unlawful conduct after ms. taylor was killed. we allege that defendants jamie -- james and good lap unknowingly falsifying documents that was created after ms. taylor's death. we also allege that they conspired to mislead federal, state and local authorities who are investigating the incident. for example, we allege that in may 2020, those two defendants met in the garage where they agreed to tell investigators the false story. the

of officer. >> i think before any officer or officers within the department of the officer designated employee. i want to get there as well if you mentioned designated employee at the emends it is not clear which designate today is referring to the concept is if you are in front of an officer then the provision captures that officer and any other officer or designate nitted employee in that first officer's department. >> if i may. this may be something that can be addressed through a regulation. to clarify if we are going back and forth on the language special know the concement. that seems fine. i think -- mr. mar. line 13 should be and changed to or. >> yes. going back we are not going to make the changes to before. the sentence. do it by regulation. >> yea. >> okay. there are no changes to what was proposed the only changes we are changing before in the same sentence before number 2. we are crossing out, and and writing in, or. >> is that what you are referring to? >> yes, thank you. in that sentence interested party section on page 3 the only change the, or. the next change is in

when other lmpd officers executed that warrant. the fourth amendment of the constitution ensures that people are subject to searches only when there is probable cause supporting a search warrant. falsified warrant create unnecessary hazard for the public and for the police who rely on facts that fellow officers report in carrying out their public duties. the indictment alleges that by preparing a false affidavit to secure a search warrant for breonna taylor's home, defendants james and meanie willfully deprived breonna taylor of her constitutional right to be free of unreasonable searches and seizures. and we allege that her death resulted from that violation. in a separate indictment the grand jury charges former lmpd detective brett, and using unconstitutionally excessive force during the raid in her home. without a lawful objective justifying the use of deadly force, the defendant traveled away from miss taylor's doorway to the side of the building and fired 10 shots into her apartment through a bedroom window and a sliding glas

roles were these officers. get them off the ground and took him in the back. but that's why you need to see people because what he subsequently told officers is that everything for the past weeks had been going so bad for him that he just wanted to end it. he just wanted his life to end d. in a space where people are not looking and not sensitive to this it could have ended differently. the officers could have responded to his aggression with more aggression but there's a whole life and it's a life with a lot of dtrauma that you need to understand that folks to come to this criminal justice system so seeing them and seeing what's not there because again, however he's responding is not normal . and i don't mean normal like he's schizophrenic but not normal in terms of whatis customary when these things happen. what's customary when this young man has been in court before me and that sometimes , a person can look what can look like disorderly behavior oiis often just stuff that's going on that we need to resolve.

we are working with the mayor's office, board of supervisors, the city attorney's office have met withocacy groups to help develop an ordinance that both addresses the public safety concerns of our city while also preserving every individual's right to privacy. this has to be done constitutionally. i know there have been a lot of in the public space about this recently but this process has been on going for quite some time. with this, i would like to turn this over to the special assistant who is our project manager on this particular, all of the ordinances as a matter of fact, and let her explain where we are and what this process is for the police department. >> thank you. >> thank you, chief. welcome. >> thank you so much. >> well, i know the chief has started talking specifically about our non-entity surveillance camera policy ordinance now. but i'm going to take a step back to talk about what it does. it is an admin code that went into effect in july of 2019. it does five major things. one is define what it is to all departments, two, the use of this at the department, three, and

not born police officers, but become police officers, through the sources of power, it's helpful for us to think about what abolitionism might mean vis-a-vis abolishing those powers. we can talk about let's abolish police officers, or let's abolish the institution for police, but we ought to remember that the institution of the police is made up of a constellation of particular kinds of powers, so what would it mean for us to abolish stop and frisk? what would it mean for us to abolish the particular power to arrest? what would it mean for us to abolish qualified immunity? what would it mean for us to abolish the authority to use deadly force? you can see how you can have this conversation in a way that's targeted quite specifically at various forms of police power, as distinct from a more general conversation about what police abolitionism or defunding might look like. that's the first way i would respond. the other way i would respond is to say black people especially cannot cede any particular type of power. by that i mean, law is one mechanism and certainly not the only one for t

the weekend before, it was 52 officers. for someone working day shift is supposed to get off at 4:30 p.m. may be required to stay until 9:30. that person has to come back and still work there shift the next day, as well. >> reporter: beat caps has told nbc bay area that the overtime is leading to exhaustion and burnout. >> reporter: when we have an officer coming out we want them to be well rested, alert and empathetic of what is going on. >> reporter: the president of the neighborhood association says crime and public safety are the number one concern in her community and she does not want police were never staffing struggles to make matters worse, is especially in crime- ridden communities. >> when it is concentrated in a certain pocket of san jose and you know that people around you are being affected, it's upsetting. >> reporter: in hopes of eliminating the mandatory overtime, the department is putting 17 additional patrol truck cars on the street today. the goal is to staff these cars with officers who volunteer for ov

the officer violated the policy. there is a lot of talk in this moment about the need for reform, and i believe there is a need for some standardization, summary formation and certainly some innovation in law enforcement. but the biggest need for reform when it comes to policing is relational reformation. we need to get our law enforcement professionals and our community residents to relate to one another. as humans, with shared values, as sisters and brothers, with shared interests. so today, i join with all of our national law enforcement partners, in all 50 states. we call upon every law enforcement agency to get involved. get out into the community. host events over the weekend. and show the community that we are not as divided as we are disconnected. i call upon every faith-based organization, every community-based organization to come together with your law enforcement professionals. let's build these bridges. because if there has ever been a time where our nation needed and deserved this leadership, that momen

, it is the office and office worker serving businesses that surround the offices. it is the hotels and the retail that all together drive about 3 quarters of our city economic activity, and to give you sort of a sense of where it is, on the map the parcels shaded in red are areas with 25 thousand square feet or more of office use, and so you can see that there is no specific district or neighborhood that that falls in, but there is clear concentrations. those together with the sort of supportive eco system, again is driving a lot of our activity and so we use 6 zip codes roughly to define the economic core, and those 6 zip codes were responsible for 69 percent of the city jobs overall jobs. they employed all most 40 percent of the city's working age residents. they also generated 47 percent of the sales tax and are they are home to 42 percent of our small businesses. defined businesses under 50 employees. and so, if you go to the next slide, what we know and has been a huge topic of conversation, there continues to be a significant loss of people in our economic co

s washington field office. now, he has since been referred to the office of special counsel for potential hatch act violations. tebow is at the center of my two letters sent last week. the first letter relates to an fbi investigation that tebow opened on the trump campaign and its advisers. he allegedly had help from richard pilger, an official in the justice department's election crime branch within the public integrity section. during chairman durbin's investigation into the justice department misconduct, pilger really stood out. the committee interviewed richard donahue, the former principal deputy attorney general during the trump administration. he was also a key january 6 committee witness. donahue testified to the judiciary committee that pil pilger's conduct frustrated the department's ability to properly operate the elections crime branch. tebow and pilger played a major role in opening the criminal investigation into the trump campaign. and this isn't a preliminary investigation. it's a full investiga

okay, let me come to an officer who day in here because obviously the police officers actually what the receiving end doing his protest being accused of not just brutalizing young people and harassing them is it's true. would you say in your estimation? yes, actually we have arms are saying repulse or from police officers been says he's in the use of force, but still it didn't mean that the entire police force was, was brutal or was insensitive to the plight of the youth. and these were things we're looking into, we have of departments on the follow up looks into these complaints, but i guess people have had enough all the fels, we're not moving fast enough. okay. um, i want to hear from allow me day because i see that your hair style is dreadlock to which i understand in this country can be a way for people to be targeted. have you experience some of the things that p 2 p peter was saying yes, because obviously aroused by selfish as lot of time dover traits that the car should we not to happen? i mean the cloud also optical bye for now. do you and did i go over the, could you to an arr

officers to do that. you also want to be able to build relationships with that community because they can tell you about crime before it happens. that is maybe what you are saying in your locality and what we are saying is like the evidence-based solutions focused on ways to reduce private crime and we should follow that more closely probably in a vacuum are making policy just because they make good political sense. host: president biden introduced up plan of his own to higher and to train 100,000 police officers over the course of five years. $15 billion for accelerating just in -- justice system reform bill. what you think about those ideas coming from this administration? guest: i think there is a lot of things in common with the trump administration as it relates to funding police and creating training and bringing the police and the community together. those aspects, i can agree with. host: what aspects with and to agree with? guest: i'm not really sure i mean i think background checks are good but w

officers. $20 billion over five years, $1.7 billion for more agents, and also to emphasize to congress the passage of legislation pushing for universal background checks and assault weapons bands, some of which the elements have been passed. we will start with the comments from president biden yesterday and his proposal, what are your thoughts? caller: -- guest: the important issue with the policing and more important to the money is that he is saying that police and will not be defunded, the institution has to be defended and i believe mayors and public officials are responsible for the lives and safety of the people must have breathed a sigh of relief hearing the president using his pulpit to finally once and for all pushback against one has -- what has basically been the social media at abbott in -- evelyn's -- avalanche not commuting -- avalanche not connected to communities. he was showing it should be a community driven conversation not by slogans. these are complex issues, and i think th

there are three additional reasons in this case, he's not just a police officer, he's the officer thatt out and got warrants for space investigations. i grew up in a military family, we used to say surrogates run the military, that's true for police departments. these problems that he represents were systemic in that department. in addition to that now, every case that he's connected to, you have to disclose his wrongdoing to lawyers working on those cases even though he's not been convicted because he's accused of dishonesty. it's always relevant in court whether or not someone is telling the truth. the last thing you have to keep in mind, the feds are knocking on the door of lmpd, lmpd is currently under investigation by federal authorities and they'll look closely. >> marq claxton and david henderson, thank you very much. >>> "the new york times" now reporting that a subpoena was issued this spring to trump's team. in other words, they wanted some of that information that they believe was not included in 15 boxes that they had already taken. let me go back to andrew weissman. so, an

and our office. and in those email accounts, and i read them daily, so believe it or not i read each one each day because it's an easy way for me in public service to have an impact that day. i can either help somebody unblock something or i can get to a solution. in each of those email female correspondence, there is an indication by the borrower of multiple instances and several different times over the balance of however long they been seeking a look increase, of interaction and communication with sba employees, either at the district office are directly with the loan officers themselves. so to say that they have not been notified of the challenges facing their files, i believe understates the totality of the circumstances. where -- in the most recent cases, , so since the program stopped considering reconsiderations in may, the emails that come in part either, as i said, in the obligated funded category in which we work than to assist them with how they can close that loan if they want to close t

an officer points and yells at her to back up. the person who posted the video says her sister witness the altercation. the two crawford county deputies were suspended and the mulberry police officer placed on administrative leave while the incident is investigated. police say the man in the video is 27-year-old randall warchester of goose creek, south carolina. they kuls accuse him of spittin threatening a gas station attendant in a nearby town . the clerk then called the police and warchester rode a bike to a convenience store in mulberry where he was arrested outside the store. one witness tells cnn affiliate khbs it looked like the man got up to run away to avoid an arrest but the sheriff claims he got up to attack an officer. warchester is held in the county jail on multiple charges including first degree assault and second-degree battery and unclear if he has an attorney. the crawford county sheriff's office released this statement saying the following. arkansas governor, asa hutchison tweeted the local recent in crawford co

so the officer had -- the officers had this gentleman on the ground. he's subdued.n't appear to be resisting arrest. they're just being cruel. and people who are cruel and also wear a badge, we better be very careful because that means that young man wasn't the first that that happened to, and he won't be the last unless we start to take action. no, absolutely not. i have been in dozens of chases. i have arrested people that were running, fleeing with weapons. none of them did i ever do that to. ever. under any circumstance. >> so you heard nadia romero report these officers were not wearing body cameras. i don't know what the law is in arkansas or that county. maybe they're not required to. isn't this exactly why people want there to be body cameras to make sure there is complete transparency and officers don't excel what they're allowed to do. >> first of all, body cams don't bring transparency. they just bring another level of perspective. to get full transparency, we need to look at full technological solutions like what my company is building. you know, we have

an officer was off duty when the bullet struck his right passenger door. >> very thankful that our officer injured. he could obviously have been seriously injured or killed. and so just extremely thankful for him and his family. >> reporter: the san jose police officers association president sean pritchard says the off duty over was on his way to work and was clearly shaken up. >> with the rise in ambushes on law enforcement officers it enters our minds right away. it's unclear at this time if this officer was targeted. >> reporter: investigators with the california highway patrol stay happened around 2:00. the officer told chp he didn't see a gun but heard a pop and described the suspect vehicle as a white hatchback with no license plates. community members stay's a tragedy but not surprising. >> definitely heard of two others similar. obviously, it has an effect on people ales overall fear about, you know, their safety around here. >> reporter: a few months ago, a santa clara county sheriff's deputy reported being shot at as he was drive on southbound 185. these types of incidents have b

office. reporter: in its strongest rebuke yet, the justice department alleges former president trump and his legal team likely obstructed to federal investigation. it comes in response to the trump team's motion for a special master to remove materials seized from trump's mar-a-lago estate. the 36 page filing provides new details into why the fbi took the unprecedented move to such a former president's home on august 8, revealing inmate, a grand jury subpoena was issued for classified documents at trump's estate. officials say they developed evidence that government records were likely concealed and removed from a storage room in mar-a-lago, and efforts were taken to obstruct the government's investigation. >> none of this is good for donald trump. anything here simply increases the chance of a possible indictment. em: according to the filing, when federal agents came to the estate in june, one lawyer allowed agents to visit the storage room, but got them from looking through any of the boxes

election of officers. just generally the way that it works, if you don't have a procedure set up in the bylaws which you don't have bylaws yet so don't have a procedure, generally the way that works is the presiding officer and in this case i think the way we'll do it is a secretary will act in that role for this purpose. request nominations from the body. you don't have to have a second. and when no one else wants to offer nominations then the commission votes on the nomination in the order received and the first candidate to receive majority of the votes is elected to the office, so that's generally how-based on robert rule ofered order and you dont have a bylaw we look to robert rule of order. when you adopt bylaws you can have a different process. it is a good idea to run that by me first. this body-this body 4.137, sure you are familiar with it. i will go through what your powers and duties are but you can read them and just make a few comments. basically, under the charter 4.137b, there is a whole fi

now, the federal government alleges that one of these officers who was there that day, as officers wentthe house, a shot was fired from within that house, someone within the residence thought there were intruders there. one of the officers allegedly went around to the side of breonna taylor's residence and fired through a window that was covered in blinds, and so prosecutors say that that officer didn't know what was on the other side of that window, but nevertheless opened fire ten times. that person has been charged, again, with excessive use of force. finally, take a listen very quickly. this is the attorney. we're hearing reaction from breonna taylor's family talking about their view in response to these charges. take a listen. >> what a great day to arrest the killers of breonna taylor. thank god that kentucky attorney general daniel cameron did not get the last word. >> that's right. >> in regards to justice for breonna taylor. >> now, breonna taylor's family says that she's waited 874 days for this moment, for these charges to be brought. worth pointing out the attorney general s
