[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Sgt. Jorge Garibay, spokesperson, San José Police Department\"]‘The department has, and continues to, reinforce its commitment to officer accountability.’[/pullquote]By the end of 2023, the report said 285 officers received at least one conduct complaint, accounting for about 27% of San José’s 1,059 sworn officers. That represents a 6% reduction from 2022, when about a third of all officers received at least one conduct complaint.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The report, which was set to be discussed at the San José City Council meeting on Tuesday, is the first issued by Karyn Sinunu-Towery, the interim police auditor appointed after the city’s former IPA abruptly retired last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sgt. Jorge Garibay, a spokesperson for SJPD, told KQED in an email the decrease in complaints “is a direct reflection of increased training and officer accountability.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garibay highlighted a monthly newsletter sent to the department by Internal Affairs since June 2022 to share current trends and “remind department members of the policies and procedures governing the agency.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The department also recognizes the number of complaints received annually is based on several factors, Garibay said. “The department has, and continues to, reinforce its commitment to officer accountability.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the percentage of overall complaints received in 2023 was down 6% from the year before, the rate at which complaints lodged against officers were determined to likely be true, increased by 6% from the year prior, the report said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About 24% of complaints from members of the public about the conduct of officers were sustained, meaning they were found more likely than not to be true. That is the highest percentage of sustained complaints recorded by the IPA’s office in the past two decades, according to a review of previous years’ data by KQED News.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In San José, the Police Department’s Internal Affairs division investigates such complaints, which are reviewed by the IPA’s office. The report shows 306 conduct complaints were reviewed in 2023, with 74 closed as sustained. [aside postID=news_11966615 hero='https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/11/231106-SAN-JOSE-POLICE-01-KQED-1020x680.jpg']Complaints reviewed and tabulated for annual reports are not necessarily tied to complaints received that same year, as the investigation and auditing process can take up to a year in some cases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Police Department declined to say what might be causing the increase in sustained complaints but noted it could also depend on many factors, including the nature and types of complaints reviewed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The allegations contained within the complaints also vary and range widely from rare, major misconduct to the frequent minor transgressions,” Garibay said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sinunu-Towery told KQED that the department is a “really young” one, which could play a role in the sustained complaints increase.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The officers that are really on the ground, in the field dealing with citizens, the majority of those officers are still pretty young,” she said. “In the first five years, an officer is on duty, he or she is more likely to make mistakes than a seasoned officer.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sinunu-Towery’s oversight report is significantly shorter and includes much less information than most prior year reports authored under other auditors. [pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Karyn Sinunu-Towery, interim police auditor, City of San José\"]‘In the first five years an officer is on duty, he or she is more likely to make mistakes than a seasoned officer.’[/pullquote]Sinunu-Towery’s report, for example, declined to include breakdowns of how many officers received multiple complaints — and how many complaints they each received.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And though she suggested in an interview that the level of experience of officers on the streets might play a role in the number and types of complaints a department receives, her report did not include information on the experience level of officers named in complaints in 2023.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She also did not include the ethnicities or other demographic information about the people bringing complaints against officers. She attributed her report’s differences, compared to prior-year reports, to a difference in “style.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sinunu-Towery, a former 30-year Santa Clara County prosecutor, was appointed last summer to replace Shivaun Nurre, a longtime IPA employee who helmed the office from 2018 through June 2023.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nurre’s unexpected retirement came about without much public notice, raising questions about her departure.

"content": "\u003cp>[dropcap]O[/dropcap]n a Thursday morning in October 2020, less than five months after George Floyd was held on his stomach by Minneapolis police until he died, Shayne Sutherland called 911 from a convenience store in Stockton, California, and asked for a taxi.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the operator told Sutherland he’d dialed 911, he said someone was trying to rob him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stockton Police Officers Ronald Zalunardo and John Afanasiev arrived at the store about 15 minutes later. In the meantime, a store employee had called 911, saying Sutherland was threatening him with a wine bottle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In body camera footage that captured the officers’ response, Sutherland seems fidgety, and his speech is difficult to understand at times, but he doesn’t appear violent, and he isn’t armed. He cooperates with police, addressing Zalunardo as “sir” and sitting against a wall outside the store as instructed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The officers question Sutherland. When he tells them he can’t remember why he’s under court supervision, Afanasiev says, “The drugs probably have something to do with it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“How long you been using meth,” Zalnunardo asks. Sutherland stutters and says he’s been using cocaine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sutherland briefly stands, then sits when ordered to do so. A minute later, he stands up again. This time, the officers tackle him to the ground and hold him belly-down — a position known as prone restraint. Thirty seconds later, his hands are cuffed behind his back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That could have been the end of the encounter. Experts say prone restraint can be a safe, effective way to subdue someone and get them into handcuffs — so long as they’re quickly placed in a “recovery position” on their side or in a seated position to allow them to breathe more easily.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Zalunardo and Afanasiev didn’t do that. The body camera footage shows them holding Sutherland belly-down for more than eight minutes. For nearly half that time, Afanasiev lays across Sutherland’s back. Sutherland panics, alternating between moaning and screaming for help as Zalunardo, who uses his baton and body weight to help keep Sutherland’s shoulder down, repeatedly tells him, “Relax!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Please let me breathe,” Sutherland begs, his voice barely decipherable. In between shrieks and gasps, he calls out, “Mom!” He begs for help. “Please let me live.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before the officers notice that he’s turning colors and losing consciousness, Sutherland, his mouth bloody from being slammed and scraped against the ground, sputters: “I’m f—ing dead.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another five-and-half minutes pass before officers roll Sutherland onto his side and begin to render aid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sutherland was declared dead 47 minutes later at a hospital.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/embed/kCbdeXLgPcM?si=8NP_MTnHOxTuUMd9\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Exclusive findings: \u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>‘It’s deeply concerning’\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>As far back as the 1990s, medical experts and law enforcement officials have been aware of the dangers of prone restraint. A number of organizations and law enforcement agencies, including the U.S. Department of Justice, the Chicago Police Department and the New Orleans Police Department, warned officers of these dangers and advised them on how to minimize risks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many training manuals have since been updated to address the risks of prone restraint and the importance of using the recovery position. Ohio State Police officers are forbidden from using prone restraint. A Nevada law forbids the practice. In California, a law that became effective in 2022, AB 490, bans any maneuvers that put people at risk of being unable to breathe due to the position of their body, or positional asphyxia, a common cause of death in prone restraint cases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But a new review of law enforcement data shows that, despite growing awareness of the dangers of prone restraint, in California, the problem is pervasive. After the passage of \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201520160AB71\">AB 71\u003c/a> in 2015, California began tracking data about when people died after police use of force. Between 2016 and 2022, at least 22 people have died in the state after being restrained stomach-down by law enforcement officers, according to a new analysis of currently available state use-of-force data by the \u003cem>California Reporting Project,\u003c/em> \u003cem>The California Newsroom\u003c/em> and \u003cem>The Guardian\u003c/em>. Our examination also included police reports, death investigations, district attorney reviews, body-worn camera footage, 911 calls and lawsuits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003ca href=\"#reported\">Read more on how we reported this story\u003c/a>\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Other key findings:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Nineteen of the 22 people who died following prone restraint tested positive for meth.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Five died after May 2020, when Minneapolis police murdered George Floyd.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Two of those people died after AB 490 went into effect.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>All 22 cases involved people in crisis — either struggling with addiction, mental illness or otherwise behaving erratically.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Almost half of those who died were Latino, followed by white people — a trend that reflects larger use-of-force data in California.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Two of those who died were armed, but not with guns.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>“We really shouldn’t have any of these deaths,” said Seth W. Stoughton, a former police officer in Tallahassee, Florida, who teaches criminal law and procedure at the University of South Carolina’s Joseph F. Rice School of Law. “Any time there’s prolonged prone restraint, something’s going wrong. It should not happen.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Seth W.

That’s really frustrating.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s deeply concerning to learn about the deaths of individuals in California due to positional asphyxia, even after it was banned by AB 490,” wrote California Assemblymember Mike Gipson, who was the primary author of the bill, in an emailed response to the findings. “These incidents underscore the urgent need for comprehensive training and accountability measures within law enforcement agencies.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Others who have died following prone restraint by California police officers between 2016 and 2022 include:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Isabel De La Torre\u003c/strong>, died on March 26, 2022, after her partner, who was five months pregnant, called 911 in Clovis, California, because she believed De La Torre was unconscious, according to official records and court documents. When De La Torre awoke, her partner hung up the phone, but Clovis police officers responded anyway. De La Torre tried to turn the officers away, hiding in a bathroom, writhing and screaming, allegedly holding a knife. When she came out of the room, officers ordered a police dog to bite her, bringing her to the ground, where officers handcuffed her and held her in the prone position for more than three minutes. She died of positional and compressional asphyxia due to prone restraint, according to the Fresno County Sheriff-Coroner. Her family sued the department for wrongful death and is set to receive a $1.9 million settlement.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Mario Gonzalez\u003c/strong>, who died on April 19, 2021, in Alameda, California. When police responded to a call about a man sitting in a park and talking to himself, officials said they found Gonzalez so intoxicated he couldn’t \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/24117516-da_report_gonzalez#document/p5/a2407325\">speak in full sentences\u003c/a>. He refused to take his hands out of his pockets, according to official reports, leading two officers to hold him down on his stomach while another held his legs. \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBJnToNolHw\">Body camera \u003c/a>footage of the incident shows officers repeatedly telling each other not to put too much force on him, but they continued to hold him prone after he was handcuffed. He died of the “toxic effects of methamphetamine” after suffering a cardiopulmonary arrest, according to the Alameda County Coroner’s Bureau. His family sued the city of Alameda, the officers involved in Gonzalez’s death and the police chief at the time and won a settlement of $11 million. In 2023, the Alameda County district attorney \u003ca href=\"https://www.alcoda.org/alameda-county-district-attorneys-office-announces-pau/\">reopened\u003c/a> her office’s investigation into whether the officers acted criminally.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Edward Bronstein\u003c/strong>, who died on March 31, 2020, in Altadena, near Los Angeles. California Highway Patrol officers had detained Bronstein in an L.A. County station on suspicion of driving under the influence. When Bronstein declined to give a blood sample, officers forced him face down onto a mat, at which point he said, “I’ll do it willingly,” \u003ca href=\"https://vimeo.com/812954416\">a video of the incident shows\u003c/a>. An officer can be heard saying, “It’s too late.” Five officers continued to pin Bronstein to the ground. As they drew blood, Bronstein screamed, “I can’t breathe” and “Let me breathe” multiple times before his breathing and pulse stopped. Officers performed CPR to no avail. In 2023, the\u003ca href=\"https://da.lacounty.gov/media/news/seven-california-highway-patrol-officers-charged-connection-death-edward-bronstein\"> Los Angeles County district attorney charged \u003c/a>a CHP sergeant, six officers and a nurse with involuntary manslaughter and assault under the color of authority. His family was awarded a $24 million settlement in a civil wrongful death suit.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>And there may be more deaths beyond the 22 we found. While the state receives data from law enforcement agencies for deaths that occur after police use of force, it isn’t necessarily complete.

Add the body weight of one or more police officers, and compression increases, restricting the movement of the ribcage and diaphragm, which are vital for the inhalation of oxygen and exhalation of carbon dioxide. The lack of proper ventilation puts stress on many parts of the body, including the heart, as noted in a \u003ca href=\"https://www.disabilityrightsca.org/system/files?file=file-attachments/701801.pdf\">2002 study by Disability Rights California\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The warnings go even further back. In a \u003ca href=\"https://www.ojp.gov/pdffiles/posasph.pdf\">1995 bulletin (PDF)\u003c/a>, the U.S. Department of Justice cautioned law enforcement officers about the deadliness of positional asphyxia. “As soon as the suspect is handcuffed, get him off his stomach,” it reads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bulletin outlines how subjects on drugs are at higher risk of death in the position, noting that “cocaine-induced bizarre or frenzied behavior… may increase a subject’s susceptibility to sudden death by effecting an increase of the heart rate to a critical level.” It also said that “drugs and/or alcohol” pose a “major risk factor” because “subjects may not realize they are suffocating.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Dr. Alon Steinberg, California cardiologist, who studies prone restraint\"]‘It’s horrible because you’re just watching a preventable death, and you know the person’s suffering.’[/pullquote]The bulletin explains that suspects restrained in a prone position often appear to be resisting officers when, in fact, they’re fighting, perhaps involuntarily, to get oxygen and carbon dioxide in and out of their bodies as their chest is squeezed. As the memo reads: “The individual experiences increased difficulty breathing. The natural reaction to oxygen deficiency occurs — the person struggles more violently. The officer applies more compression to subdue the individual.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s horrible because you’re just watching a preventable death, and you know the person’s suffering,” said Dr. Alon Steinberg, a California cardiologist who studies prone restraint and has viewed hours of footage of people being held stomach-down by police.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Steinberg, who serves as an expert witness, believes that cardiac arrests following prone restraint might be caused by more than just a lack of oxygen in the heart muscle. When someone can adequately breathe, the expulsion of carbon dioxide regulates the level of acid in the blood. But when breathing and blood flow are restricted, acid can build and cause cardiac arrest, as Steinberg and forensic pathologists Dr. Victor Weedn and Dr. Peter Speth proposed in a \u003ca href=\"https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35869602/\">2022 study\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. Daniel Wohlgelernter, a cardiologist who has also testified in a number of prone-restraint cases, agrees.

When someone is agitated, on stimulants or acting erratically, they are also more likely to die if officers use prone restraint, according to medical experts. Former police officers and criminologists say that putting someone on their side or seated after they’re handcuffed saves lives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2020, Antioch police officers held Angelo Quinto down on his stomach after responding to a call from his family. His death inspired California legislation, which went into effect in 2022, that prohibits officers from using techniques such as prone restraint that “involve a substantial risk of positional asphyxia.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The California Newsroom and The California Reporting Project wanted to better understand how many people were dying after officers used prone restraint in the Golden State.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the passage of state law \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201520160AB71\">AB 71\u003c/a>, California law enforcement agencies submit \u003ca href=\"https://openjustice.doj.ca.gov/data\">anonymized data\u003c/a> to the state Department of Justice’s Use of Force Incident Reporting database when officers seriously injure or kill people. That data contains information listing the types of force officers used and whether someone died. Currently, the data includes incidents that occurred from 2016 to 2022. Although people can die from prone restraint after being otherwise injured, we wanted to focus on cases where the cause of death was more clear. We filtered the data to incidents where someone died and officers used a control hold but did not use a gun, Taser or carotid restraint. Outside of carotid holds, the data does not distinguish between specific types of restraint.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To better identify the decedents, reporters then combined the use-of-force data with data from \u003ca href=\"https://openjustice.doj.ca.gov/data\">California’s Death In-Custody\u003c/a> database. To ascertain whether officers specifically used prone restraint on those decedents, we used public record requests to obtain records and body camera footage from law enforcement agencies, district attorneys, medical examiner/coroners and oversight agencies about the incidents. We also obtained lawsuits in cases where loved ones sued local authorities. Two people reviewed those records, and an editor checked that work. We were unable to obtain enough records on four people’s deaths and excluded them from our analysis. Through our reporting, we determined five were incorrectly marked as not having been tased and removed them from our analysis. We also found that two people did not clearly die after a prone restraint and cut them from our analysis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, we know that this data was incomplete because it did not include Angelo Quinto. We had records showing that officers used prone restraint, so we included him in our analysis despite his not appearing in the state’s use-of-force data.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Justin Feldman, principal research scientist at the \u003ca href=\"https://policingequity.org/\">Center for Policing Equity\u003c/a>, says that it’s not uncommon for prone restraint deaths to go unreported. In \u003ca href=\"https://dash.harvard.edu/bitstream/handle/1/35083738/FELDMAN-DISSERTATION-2018.pdf?sequence=3&isAllowed=y\">a study\u003c/a>, he found that in \u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/oct/11/police-killings-counted-harvard-study\">more than half the cases when police kill someone, it’s not documented on the death certificate\u003c/a> and so may not be properly recorded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Feldman said the “number one predictor” of misreported deaths was when officers didn’t shoot someone, such as when they used prone restraint or a Taser.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two police departments would not release police reports to the \u003cem>California Reporting Project\u003c/em> because the death investigations found the men died of other causes, such as methamphetamine toxicity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

In the meantime, a store employee had called 911, saying Sutherland was threatening him with a wine bottle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In body camera footage that captured the officers’ response, Sutherland seems fidgety, and his speech is difficult to understand at times, but he doesn’t appear violent, and he isn’t armed. He cooperates with police, addressing Zalunardo as “sir” and sitting against a wall outside the store as instructed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The officers question Sutherland. When he tells them he can’t remember why he’s under court supervision, Afanasiev says, “The drugs probably have something to do with it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“How long you been using meth,” Zalnunardo asks. Sutherland stutters and says he’s been using cocaine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sutherland briefly stands, then sits when ordered to do so. A minute later, he stands up again. This time, the officers tackle him to the ground and hold him belly-down — a position known as prone restraint. Thirty seconds later, his hands are cuffed behind his back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That could have been the end of the encounter. Experts say prone restraint can be a safe, effective way to subdue someone and get them into handcuffs — so long as they’re quickly placed in a “recovery position” on their side or in a seated position to allow them to breathe more easily.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The body camera footage shows them holding Sutherland belly-down for more than eight minutes. For nearly half that time, Afanasiev lays across Sutherland’s back. Sutherland panics, alternating between moaning and screaming for help as Zalunardo, who uses his baton and body weight to help keep Sutherland’s shoulder down, repeatedly tells him, “Relax!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Please let me breathe,” Sutherland begs, his voice barely decipherable. In between shrieks and gasps, he calls out, “Mom!” He begs for help. “Please let me live.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before the officers notice that he’s turning colors and losing consciousness, Sutherland, his mouth bloody from being slammed and scraped against the ground, sputters: “I’m f—ing dead.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another five-and-half minutes pass before officers roll Sutherland onto his side and begin to render aid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sutherland was declared dead 47 minutes later at a hospital.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/kCbdeXLgPcM?si=8NP_MTnHOxTuUMd9'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/kCbdeXLgPcM?si=8NP_MTnHOxTuUMd9'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Exclusive findings: \u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>‘It’s deeply concerning’\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>As far back as the 1990s, medical experts and law enforcement officials have been aware of the dangers of prone restraint. A number of organizations and law enforcement agencies, including the U.S. Department of Justice, the Chicago Police Department and the New Orleans Police Department, warned officers of these dangers and advised them on how to minimize risks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many training manuals have since been updated to address the risks of prone restraint and the importance of using the recovery position. Ohio State Police officers are forbidden from using prone restraint. A Nevada law forbids the practice. In California, a law that became effective in 2022, AB 490, bans any maneuvers that put people at risk of being unable to breathe due to the position of their body, or positional asphyxia, a common cause of death in prone restraint cases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But a new review of law enforcement data shows that, despite growing awareness of the dangers of prone restraint, in California, the problem is pervasive. After the passage of \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201520160AB71\">AB 71\u003c/a> in 2015, California began tracking data about when people died after police use of force. Between 2016 and 2022, at least 22 people have died in the state after being restrained stomach-down by law enforcement officers, according to a new analysis of currently available state use-of-force data by the \u003cem>California Reporting Project,\u003c/em> \u003cem>The California Newsroom\u003c/em> and \u003cem>The Guardian\u003c/em>.

That’s really frustrating.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s deeply concerning to learn about the deaths of individuals in California due to positional asphyxia, even after it was banned by AB 490,” wrote California Assemblymember Mike Gipson, who was the primary author of the bill, in an emailed response to the findings. “These incidents underscore the urgent need for comprehensive training and accountability measures within law enforcement agencies.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Others who have died following prone restraint by California police officers between 2016 and 2022 include:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Isabel De La Torre\u003c/strong>, died on March 26, 2022, after her partner, who was five months pregnant, called 911 in Clovis, California, because she believed De La Torre was unconscious, according to official records and court documents. When De La Torre awoke, her partner hung up the phone, but Clovis police officers responded anyway. De La Torre tried to turn the officers away, hiding in a bathroom, writhing and screaming, allegedly holding a knife. When she came out of the room, officers ordered a police dog to bite her, bringing her to the ground, where officers handcuffed her and held her in the prone position for more than three minutes. She died of positional and compressional asphyxia due to prone restraint, according to the Fresno County Sheriff-Coroner. Her family sued the department for wrongful death and is set to receive a $1.9 million settlement.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Mario Gonzalez\u003c/strong>, who died on April 19, 2021, in Alameda, California. When police responded to a call about a man sitting in a park and talking to himself, officials said they found Gonzalez so intoxicated he couldn’t \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/24117516-da_report_gonzalez#document/p5/a2407325\">speak in full sentences\u003c/a>. He refused to take his hands out of his pockets, according to official reports, leading two officers to hold him down on his stomach while another held his legs. \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBJnToNolHw\">Body camera \u003c/a>footage of the incident shows officers repeatedly telling each other not to put too much force on him, but they continued to hold him prone after he was handcuffed. He died of the “toxic effects of methamphetamine” after suffering a cardiopulmonary arrest, according to the Alameda County Coroner’s Bureau. His family sued the city of Alameda, the officers involved in Gonzalez’s death and the police chief at the time and won a settlement of $11 million. In 2023, the Alameda County district attorney \u003ca href=\"https://www.alcoda.org/alameda-county-district-attorneys-office-announces-pau/\">reopened\u003c/a> her office’s investigation into whether the officers acted criminally.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Edward Bronstein\u003c/strong>, who died on March 31, 2020, in Altadena, near Los Angeles. California Highway Patrol officers had detained Bronstein in an L.A. County station on suspicion of driving under the influence. When Bronstein declined to give a blood sample, officers forced him face down onto a mat, at which point he said, “I’ll do it willingly,” \u003ca href=\"https://vimeo.com/812954416\">a video of the incident shows\u003c/a>. An officer can be heard saying, “It’s too late.” Five officers continued to pin Bronstein to the ground. As they drew blood, Bronstein screamed, “I can’t breathe” and “Let me breathe” multiple times before his breathing and pulse stopped. Officers performed CPR to no avail. In 2023, the\u003ca href=\"https://da.lacounty.gov/media/news/seven-california-highway-patrol-officers-charged-connection-death-edward-bronstein\"> Los Angeles County district attorney charged \u003c/a>a CHP sergeant, six officers and a nurse with involuntary manslaughter and assault under the color of authority. His family was awarded a $24 million settlement in a civil wrongful death suit.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>And there may be more deaths beyond the 22 we found. While the state receives data from law enforcement agencies for deaths that occur after police use of force, it isn’t necessarily complete. That’s because agencies don’t always submit data to the state as they’re required to do, or data is otherwise excluded from the \u003ca href=\"https://openjustice.doj.ca.gov/data\">state’s use-of-force database\u003c/a>.

As the memo reads: “The individual experiences increased difficulty breathing. The natural reaction to oxygen deficiency occurs — the person struggles more violently. The officer applies more compression to subdue the individual.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s horrible because you’re just watching a preventable death, and you know the person’s suffering,” said Dr. Alon Steinberg, a California cardiologist who studies prone restraint and has viewed hours of footage of people being held stomach-down by police.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Steinberg, who serves as an expert witness, believes that cardiac arrests following prone restraint might be caused by more than just a lack of oxygen in the heart muscle. When someone can adequately breathe, the expulsion of carbon dioxide regulates the level of acid in the blood. But when breathing and blood flow are restricted, acid can build and cause cardiac arrest, as Steinberg and forensic pathologists Dr. Victor Weedn and Dr. Peter Speth proposed in a \u003ca href=\"https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35869602/\">2022 study\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. Daniel Wohlgelernter, a cardiologist who has also testified in a number of prone-restraint cases, agrees. He pointed out that putting someone in prone restraint when they are in a hyperactive state — as people often are when on stimulants or in crisis — can exacerbate acidosis and cause a “double whammy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have carbon dioxide accumulation, development of lethal or potentially lethal metabolic acidosis at the same time that we have deprivation of oxygen,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite widespread agreement about the dangers of positional asphyxia caused by prone restraint, some studies have argued that the restriction of airflow caused by prone restraint is not, in most cases, enough to kill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Medical and legal experts have pointed out flaws in the studies, which have been done on healthy, sober individuals in police-free environments and don’t duplicate a real-life prone-restraint scenario.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Studies like that, if they actually had the potential to kill anyone, would never be approved by an institutional review board,” said Joanna Naples-Mitchell, an attorney with Physicians for Human Rights. “So it’s not something that’s actually possible to model in the real world in a safe way.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11977048\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11977048 size-full\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/02/240224-TOXICRESTRAINT-12-BL-KQED-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/02/240224-TOXICRESTRAINT-12-BL-KQED-1.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/02/240224-TOXICRESTRAINT-12-BL-KQED-1-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/02/240224-TOXICRESTRAINT-12-BL-KQED-1-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/02/240224-TOXICRESTRAINT-12-BL-KQED-1-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/02/240224-TOXICRESTRAINT-12-BL-KQED-1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/02/240224-TOXICRESTRAINT-12-BL-KQED-1-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Karen Sutherland holds a necklace with her son Shayne’s fingerprint and name at Park View Cemetery in Manteca, San Joaquin County, on Feb. 24, 2024, where Shayne is buried. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Sorting out causes of death: ‘Alive and fine’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Of the 22 deaths we found where people died after being held stomach-down, coroners and medical examiners attributed acute methamphetamine toxicity to 10 deaths.

Feldman, principal research scientist at the \u003ca href=\"https://policingequity.org/\">Center for Policing Equity\u003c/a>, said that some incidents escalate because of officers’ bias against people who abuse drugs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think they fundamentally don’t respect people they view as addicts or tweakers or whatever the pejorative might be, and treat them accordingly without respect for their lives,” Feldman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Peter Moskos, a criminologist with John Jay College of Criminal Justice and former Baltimore police officer, there should be a greater focus on preventing the events that lead people into the hands of police by getting them the help they need, such as jobs, housing, drug treatment and mental health care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At some point, it would have been nice if someone could have pulled a switch track and diverted that person, whether it’s community, family, other government agencies, anything,” he said. “But once you get to that point [of a police encounter], it’s kind of too late to offer an ideal solution.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11977195\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11977195\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/02/240227-TOXIC-RESTRAINT-CN-01.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"1138\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/02/240227-TOXIC-RESTRAINT-CN-01.jpg 640w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/02/240227-TOXIC-RESTRAINT-CN-01-160x285.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shayne Sutherland and his mother, Karen, in 2019. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Karen Sutherland)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>‘He knew he was dying’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The San Joaquin County medical examiner’s office determined that Shayne Sutherland’s cause of death was cardiac arrest due to “acute methamphetamine toxicity” with a contributing factor of “physical restraint by law enforcement.” In other words, meth, not police, was primarily responsible for Sutherland’s death.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sutherland’s family wasn’t satisfied with the medical examiner’s findings or with the Stockton Police Department’s response to his death. In October 2021, they filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against the city of Stockton, Officers Zalunardo and Afanasiev and former Stockton Police Chief Eric Jones. The suit alleges wrongful death, excessive force and interfering with Sutherland’s constitutional rights by force.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They did not have that right to judge him that morning,” his mother, Karen Sutherland, said. “They did not have that right to do what they did.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Families of people in California who have died following prone restraint have won at least $41 million in civil suits across the state, according to court documents and press reports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the year leading up to her son’s death, Karen managed to get Shayne into rehab for a stint, but finding mental health care and ongoing treatment was a struggle.

When someone is agitated, on stimulants or acting erratically, they are also more likely to die if officers use prone restraint, according to medical experts. Former police officers and criminologists say that putting someone on their side or seated after they’re handcuffed saves lives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2020, Antioch police officers held Angelo Quinto down on his stomach after responding to a call from his family. His death inspired California legislation, which went into effect in 2022, that prohibits officers from using techniques such as prone restraint that “involve a substantial risk of positional asphyxia.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The California Newsroom and The California Reporting Project wanted to better understand how many people were dying after officers used prone restraint in the Golden State.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the passage of state law \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201520160AB71\">AB 71\u003c/a>, California law enforcement agencies submit \u003ca href=\"https://openjustice.doj.ca.gov/data\">anonymized data\u003c/a> to the state Department of Justice’s Use of Force Incident Reporting database when officers seriously injure or kill people. That data contains information listing the types of force officers used and whether someone died. Currently, the data includes incidents that occurred from 2016 to 2022. Although people can die from prone restraint after being otherwise injured, we wanted to focus on cases where the cause of death was more clear. We filtered the data to incidents where someone died and officers used a control hold but did not use a gun, Taser or carotid restraint. Outside of carotid holds, the data does not distinguish between specific types of restraint.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To better identify the decedents, reporters then combined the use-of-force data with data from \u003ca href=\"https://openjustice.doj.ca.gov/data\">California’s Death In-Custody\u003c/a> database. To ascertain whether officers specifically used prone restraint on those decedents, we used public record requests to obtain records and body camera footage from law enforcement agencies, district attorneys, medical examiner/coroners and oversight agencies about the incidents. We also obtained lawsuits in cases where loved ones sued local authorities. Two people reviewed those records, and an editor checked that work. We were unable to obtain enough records on four people’s deaths and excluded them from our analysis. Through our reporting, we determined five were incorrectly marked as not having been tased and removed them from our analysis. We also found that two people did not clearly die after a prone restraint and cut them from our analysis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, we know that this data was incomplete because it did not include Angelo Quinto. We had records showing that officers used prone restraint, so we included him in our analysis despite his not appearing in the state’s use-of-force data.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Justin Feldman, principal research scientist at the \u003ca href=\"https://policingequity.org/\">Center for Policing Equity\u003c/a>, says that it’s not uncommon for prone restraint deaths to go unreported. In \u003ca href=\"https://dash.harvard.edu/bitstream/handle/1/35083738/FELDMAN-DISSERTATION-2018.pdf?sequence=3&isAllowed=y\">a study\u003c/a>, he found that in \u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/oct/11/police-killings-counted-harvard-study\">more than half the cases when police kill someone, it’s not documented on the death certificate\u003c/a> and so may not be properly recorded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Feldman said the “number one predictor” of misreported deaths was when officers didn’t shoot someone, such as when they used prone restraint or a Taser.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two police departments would not release police reports to the \u003cem>California Reporting Project\u003c/em> because the death investigations found the men died of other causes, such as methamphetamine toxicity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But when that agreement expired in June 2023, fewer than half of the recommendations had actually gone into effect, Bonta said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The stipulated agreement that Bonta’s office filed in Solano Superior Court on Monday requires an independent auditor to monitor Vallejo’s progress on the outstanding reforms, under the supervision of the court, while also mandating additional changes to its police department. As part of that agreement, the department must address and rectify a slew of alleged shortcomings, including racial disparities in its policing practices, how it trains officers on de-escalation techniques and unlawful uses of force, and the manner in which it engages with the community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The decree also requires that the city change the process of how it handles civilian complaints.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This work and these reforms are more needed and more necessary,” Bonta said, announcing the action just days after \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2023-10-16/vallejo-police-officer-punches-woman-in-face-during-arrest-in-viral-video\">a video was made public\u003c/a> of a Vallejo officer punching a female driver in the face during an arrest. “Trust has been broken.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Between 2010 and late 2020, Vallejo police officers killed 19 people, \u003ca href=\"https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2020/11/23/how-a-deadly-police-force-ruled-a-city\">the second-highest rate among America’s 100 largest police forces\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state DOJ is additionally expected to file a lawsuit in Solano County Superior Court alleging that Vallejo police officers have routinely violated the constitutional rights of the citizens they are sworn to protect, the local news site \u003ca href=\"https://openvallejo.org/2023/10/16/state-doj-to-impose-sweeping-reforms-on-vallejo-police/\">Open Vallejo\u003c/a> reported Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta was joined on Monday by Vallejo Mayor Robert McConnell and the interim police chief, Jason Ta. Both said they would be cooperating with the state moving forward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Police reform consisting of a change in daily culture is not easy,” McConnell said. “As we make these changes, small and large, it will demand the full attention and understanding of the citizens of Vallejo.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta also said his office is still looking into the June 2020 police killing of Monterrosa, even though Becerra, his predecessor, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11826054/state-attorney-general-wont-investigate-vallejo-polices-fatal-shooting-of-sean-monterrosa\">declined to independently investigate the case\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In that incident, Vallejo police officer Jarrett Tonn, sitting in the back seat of an unmarked police vehicle,\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11826613/vallejo-police-release-video-of-deadly-shooting-of-sean-monterrosa\"> fired a semi-automatic rifle five times through the windshield\u003c/a>, hitting Monterrosa once. The shooting took place as officers were responding to reports of a break-in at a Walgreens during the unrest following the murder of George Floyd.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former Vallejo Police Chief Shawny Williams said at the time that Monterrosa, a 22-year-old Latino man from San Francisco, dropped to his knees and put his hands above his waist, revealing what Tonn thought was the butt of a handgun, but was actually a hammer in the pocket of his sweatshirt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Williams fired Tonn after an independent investigation. But this summer,\u003ca href=\"https://www.vallejosun.com/vallejo-detective-who-killed-sean-monterrosa-to-be-reinstated-with-back-pay/\"> Tonn got his job back\u003c/a> — with back pay — after an arbitrator ruled that the city didn’t follow proper procedure when firing him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11919385,news_11768008,news_11768675 label='Related Stories']The city has also faced criticism for its handling of investigations into numerous other police use-of-force cases, including \u003ca href=\"https://www.vallejosun.com/vallejo-says-it-inadvertently-destroyed-records-in-five-police-shooting-investigations/\"> “inadvertently” destroying records\u003c/a> related to five shootings and taking so long to conduct investigations that, in some instances, officers killed other people while still under investigation for prior shootings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In another high-profile incident, Vallejo police officer Zachary Jacobsen shot and killed Angel Ramos, 21, in his mother’s backyard in 2017, following a fight that broke out during a family gathering there. Responding to calls from neighbors about a disturbance, Jacobsen said he shot Ramos four times after witnessing him “hovering” above another man while making stabbing motions with a kitchen knife, according to the Solano County district attorney’s report on the incident.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Ramos’ family \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11768675/going-against-the-polices-narrative\">disputed the police narrative of the shooting\u003c/a>, insisting that he did not have a knife and was only punching the man. Ultimately, no knife was found near Ramos’ body. The family filed a wrongful death lawsuit, and\u003ca href=\"https://www.vallejosun.com/vallejo-reaches-2-8m-settlement-for-police-killing-of-angel-ramos/\"> last November\u003c/a>\u003ca href=\"https://www.vallejosun.com/vallejo-reaches-2-8m-settlement-for-police-killing-of-angel-ramos/\"> reached a $2.8 million settlement with the city\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And in February 2019, another Vallejo police killing \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/31/us/willie-mccoy-shooting-video.html\">made national headlines \u003c/a>when six officers \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11768008/the-life-and-death-of-willie-mccoy\">fired 55 bullets at Willie McCoy\u003c/a>, a 20-year-old Black man who had fallen asleep in his car in a Taco Bell parking lot and had just begun to stir as the officers yelled at him to raise his hands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The following year, reporting from Open Vallejo revealed a years-long tradition among some Vallejo police officers of \u003ca href=\"https://openvallejo.org/2020/07/28/vallejo-police-bend-badge-tips-to-mark-fatal-shootings/\">bending their badges to mark the fatal shootings they had made\u003c/a>. Former police captain John Whitney told the media outlet that he was forced out of the department after raising concerns about the badge-bending tradition in the wake of McCoy’s death.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, civil rights attorney John Burris, who has sued Vallejo’s police department multiple times for its mistreatment of Black residents, commended Bonta and the city for reaching the consent degree. But he also cautioned that rank-and-file officers, and the police union that represents them, would likely stand in the way of any real reform. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Make no mistake that this is just the beginning; it will take an [unwavering] commitment by city leaders and police leadership to implement the changes,” Burris said. “Change is hard, and the leadership must hold officers accountable; otherwise, the consent decree will not be worth the paper that it is written [on].”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Responding to calls from neighbors about a disturbance, Jacobsen said he shot Ramos four times after witnessing him “hovering” above another man while making stabbing motions with a kitchen knife, according to the Solano County district attorney’s report on the incident.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Ramos’ family \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11768675/going-against-the-polices-narrative\">disputed the police narrative of the shooting\u003c/a>, insisting that he did not have a knife and was only punching the man. Ultimately, no knife was found near Ramos’ body.

Former police captain John Whitney told the media outlet that he was forced out of the department after raising concerns about the badge-bending tradition in the wake of McCoy’s death.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, civil rights attorney John Burris, who has sued Vallejo’s police department multiple times for its mistreatment of Black residents, commended Bonta and the city for reaching the consent degree. But he also cautioned that rank-and-file officers, and the police union that represents them, would likely stand in the way of any real reform. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Make no mistake that this is just the beginning; it will take an [unwavering] commitment by city leaders and police leadership to implement the changes,” Burris said. “Change is hard, and the leadership must hold officers accountable; otherwise, the consent decree will not be worth the paper that it is written [on].”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Some of the issues being investigated include violent and excessive use of police dogs and eliciting false confessions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this month, the DA’s office released two reports \u003ca href=\"https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/23778279/disclosure-report-court-redactions-final.pdf\">detailing the contents\u003c/a> of multiple\u003ca href=\"https://www.contracosta.ca.gov/DocumentCenter/View/78905/Terryon-Pugh-Redacted-Investigative-Report\"> text message\u003c/a> exchanges written by 17 Antioch police officers from various time periods between 2019 and 2022. They include two texts from \u003ca href=\"https://www.antiochpoa.org/about/presidents-message\">Rick Hoffman\u003c/a>, the president of Antioch’s police union.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But far more officers were included on the text chains, according to a letter sent by Ellen McDonnell , the county’s chief public defender, to DA Diana Becton. According to McDonnell, 45 officers — almost half of the entire department — had received the texts and did nothing. At least 16 of those “are in leadership roles at APD as detectives, sergeants, and lieutenants,” McDonnell wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You’re going to have to listen,” Wade cried out in the council chambers. Her words were directed at the council members, Mayor Lamar Thorpe, and Police Chief Steven Ford, who joined the department last year, after most of the text messages were sent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You’re going to have to absorb a lot of people’s pain,” Wade told them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Including her pain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wade’s son, Malad Baldwin, was 22-years-old when he was\u003ca href=\"https://www.courthousenews.com/cops-will-face-moms-distress-claim-in-sons-beating/\"> a victim of police violence\u003c/a>, she claims. In 2014, he was asleep in Wade’s car parked outside their house when police dragged him from the vehicle and beat him, according to a lawsuit filed against the city and the officers. In the complaint, Wade said she came out of the house to see them striking her son, and that they beat him until he lost consciousness. The suit claims that police slammed Baldwin into the sidewalk, spread his legs and repeatedly struck him there. “They hit him right in between his butt cheeks,” Wade said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Antioch police claim Baldwin was drunk and combative. He was charged with resisting arrest, but those charges were dropped. The lawsuit was settled out of court, with officers admitting no wrongdoing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wade says the beating changed her son. He was depressed, riddled with anxiety, unable to hold down a job. That was the first of several incidents between Baldwin and Antioch police. Wade says it was as if they were stalking him, harassing him every where he went.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2020, Baldwin died by suicide. Wade faults Antioch police for her son’s mental trauma, and ultimately for his death.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Antioch police have not yet responded to requests for comment regarding subsequent interactions with Baldwin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, Wade says, “It feels like my baby died all over again.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s because Baldwin was mentioned in the text messages.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>“I knew from the beginning that it was a racist city”\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Officers joked about Baldwin’s claims that they beat him on his backside, and about the department using deadly force. “But we kill more Mexicans than anything else. So Blacks can feel safe,” one officer texted. “Sorry. Reverse that,” he followed up a minute later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those are some of the tamer texts released.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You’ll hear people talk about “old Antioch” — which refers to the place it used to be: White, working class, a sundown town, where people of color knew not to be after dark.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But all that has changed.

They include two texts from \u003ca href=\"https://www.antiochpoa.org/about/presidents-message\">Rick Hoffman\u003c/a>, the president of Antioch’s police union.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But far more officers were included on the text chains, according to a letter sent by Ellen McDonnell , the county’s chief public defender, to DA Diana Becton. According to McDonnell, 45 officers — almost half of the entire department — had received the texts and did nothing. At least 16 of those “are in leadership roles at APD as detectives, sergeants, and lieutenants,” McDonnell wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You’re going to have to listen,” Wade cried out in the council chambers. Her words were directed at the council members, Mayor Lamar Thorpe, and Police Chief Steven Ford, who joined the department last year, after most of the text messages were sent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You’re going to have to absorb a lot of people’s pain,” Wade told them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Including her pain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wade’s son, Malad Baldwin, was 22-years-old when he was\u003ca href=\"https://www.courthousenews.com/cops-will-face-moms-distress-claim-in-sons-beating/\"> a victim of police violence\u003c/a>, she claims. In 2014, he was asleep in Wade’s car parked outside their house when police dragged him from the vehicle and beat him, according to a lawsuit filed against the city and the officers. In the complaint, Wade said she came out of the house to see them striking her son, and that they beat him until he lost consciousness. The suit claims that police slammed Baldwin into the sidewalk, spread his legs and repeatedly struck him there. “They hit him right in between his butt cheeks,” Wade said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Antioch police claim Baldwin was drunk and combative. He was charged with resisting arrest, but those charges were dropped. The lawsuit was settled out of court, with officers admitting no wrongdoing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wade says the beating changed her son. He was depressed, riddled with anxiety, unable to hold down a job. That was the first of several incidents between Baldwin and Antioch police. Wade says it was as if they were stalking him, harassing him every where he went.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2020, Baldwin died by suicide. Wade faults Antioch police for her son’s mental trauma, and ultimately for his death.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Antioch police have not yet responded to requests for comment regarding subsequent interactions with Baldwin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, Wade says, “It feels like my baby died all over again.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s because Baldwin was mentioned in the text messages.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>“I knew from the beginning that it was a racist city”\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Officers joked about Baldwin’s claims that they beat him on his backside, and about the department using deadly force. “But we kill more Mexicans than anything else. So Blacks can feel safe,” one officer texted. “Sorry. Reverse that,” he followed up a minute later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those are some of the tamer texts released.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You’ll hear people talk about “old Antioch” — which refers to the place it used to be: White, working class, a sundown town, where people of color knew not to be after dark.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But all that has changed. Antioch is now 36% white, 35% Latino, and 20% Black, according to the\u003ca href=\"https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/antiochcitycalifornia/LND110210\"> 2020 census\u003c/a>. The shift happened both gradually and quickly.

The 33-year-old did not own a car, and cycled nearly everywhere he went around his hometown, often flanked by his teenage son and 5-year-old daughter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that night, Foster was riding alone, swerving in and out of traffic lanes without a bike light, and caught the attention of officer Ryan McMahon, who pursued Foster in his car. Foster hit the brakes, and McMahon ordered him to “come over and sit in front of my car,” according to the officer’s deposition in a civil rights lawsuit filed by Foster’s family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Stop messing with me,” Foster responded before taking off on his bike in the opposite direction, McMahon recalled in his deposition testimony. The officer got back in his car and chased him down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Foster soon fell from his bike and ran away. When McMahon continued the chase on foot, Vallejo policy required him to notify the department by radio. But that’s not what he did. Instead, he left his patrol car and followed Foster toward a dark walkway between two houses.[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Louis Dekmar, police chief, LaGrange, Georgia, and former civil rights police monitor, US Department of Justice\"]‘This isn’t accepted practice. This isn’t even basement standard practice.

The officer later said he did so in part because he saw Foster grabbing his pants, causing him to think Foster had a firearm. Foster, who was unarmed, kept running but fell. As he tried to get up, McMahon pushed him, causing Foster to fall down a small flight of cement stairs, the officer testified in the lawsuit. McMahon then straddled his back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Body camera footage shows Foster lying on the pavement without fighting back when McMahon, standing next to him, fired his Taser once more. Then the officer struck Foster in the head and body with a 13-inch metal flashlight, Foster’s family alleged in court records.

Based on records that emerged after dozens of public records requests and two lawsuits filed by Open Vallejo, the news organizations found a pattern of delayed and incomplete investigations, with dire consequences.[aside label=\"Related Posts\" link1=\"https://www.kqed.org/vallejopolicing, The Fight Against Policing in Vallejo\"]In the Foster case, when top department leadership ultimately reviewed reports and evidence more than a year and a half after Foster was killed, it found McMahon had violated department policies — both by pursuing Foster on foot without notifying the department and without backup and by failing to turn on his body camera before using deadly force. (While McMahon only turned on his body camera after he fired, the camera is designed to automatically capture 30 seconds of preactivation footage.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Officer McMahon failed to recognize his safety and the safety of the suspect Ronnell Foster outweighed apprehension for a minor traffic/pedestrian violation,” then-police chief Joseph Allio wrote in a memorandum.

This isn’t even basement standard practice,” said Louis Dekmar, the police chief in LaGrange, Georgia, since 1995, and a former civil rights police monitor for the U.S. Department of Justice. “Any agency that takes that long is saying that this isn’t a priority.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officials in the Foster case mishandled a crucial piece of evidence, police records show, then took months to request that the crime lab analyze it for fingerprints. Nineteen months passed between the killing and the submission of investigative findings to the police chief. Only then was the chief able to fully assess the case and consider discipline for that shooting. McMahon later testified that he feared for his life and that Foster, holding the flashlight, faced him “in a boxer type stance.” But body camera footage does not support the officer’s claim that Foster was facing him, and an expert for Foster’s family who reviewed enhanced footage and other forensic evidence concluded that Foster had immediately turned away. McMahon remained on the job, and was later fired over his involvement in the killing of another man, during which, a department investigation found, he endangered a fellow officer by shooting from behind him. He did not respond to requests for comment for this story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a March phone call, Shawny Williams, Vallejo’s police chief since November 2019, agreed to an interview but declined to schedule it; after we shared our findings with the department in writing, he provided a statement that pointed to recent administrative changes, like implementing a yearly crisis intervention training and requiring officers to use deescalation tactics when possible before engaging with a suspect. Williams also noted proposed reforms to how the department investigates its fatal shootings — some of which mirror recommendations first made to the department by a law enforcement consultant two years ago. Among them: a deadline for officials to produce their findings once all the evidence has been gathered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Williams declined to answer questions about any specific cases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“While I cannot comment on critical incidents which occurred prior to my arrival, or on ongoing matters, I can confirm that overall, the VPD continues the process of implementing police reforms,” the chief wrote. “All the above changes are designed to create enhanced internal accountability and will provide a more transparent process for our department and the community.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>‘A remarkable amount of incompetence’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>While there is no universal timeline for internal investigations, guidelines developed for the Department of Justice by a group of local police officials say departments should, at minimum, complete their probes before any statute of limitations on officer discipline expires (one year, in California, with some exceptions). \u003ca href=\"https://cops.usdoj.gov/ric/Publications/cops-p164-pub.pdf\">“It is preferable,” the group wrote, “to conclude investigations within 180 days.”\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in some of the DOJ’s own reviews of police departments across the country, it has pushed for even shorter deadlines when it comes to investigating an officer’s use of force, including fatal shootings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2012, for example, the Justice Department mandated that the East Haven Police Department in Connecticut complete deadly force investigations within 60 days and forward a report to the chief, who has 45 days to complete the review. And in 2014, the DOJ required a similar deadline in Albuquerque for reviews of serious uses of force.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in Vallejo, Open Vallejo and ProPublica found that the police department has taken an average of 20 months to review fatal shootings, from the time of a police killing to the date a chief signed off on the investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A number of mistakes drove delays in Vallejo and undermined the integrity of investigations. One core problem: Some witnesses to killings reported long delays before officers took their statements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s what happened in 2012, after Jaime Alvarado and his wife, Rocio Alvarado, said \u003ca href=\"https://www.buzzfeed.com/albertsamaha/three-shootings-in-vallejo\">they witnessed Vallejo police shoot their neighbor Jeremiah Moore\u003c/a>, a young man whose mother said he was on the autism spectrum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police had responded to 911 calls about loud noises coming from Moore’s home, including the sound of glass breaking. Although officers and an intoxicated witness later claimed Moore had been armed with a .22-caliber rifle, Jaime Alvarado said Moore was naked and unarmed, with his hands up and shaking from fright, when he was shot and killed by Vallejo officer Sean Kenney.

Yet there is no record of that interview in Vallejo’s case file, and the department ultimately cleared the officer in the killing. Neither the Moore family attorney nor the police department responded to questions about Alvarado’s account. The Moore family’s lawsuit was settled in 2016 for $250,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was one of three investigations among the 17 killings in which Vallejo detectives interviewed one or more eyewitnesses months later or did not interview them at all, despite a county policy that states department officials are responsible for “immediately” securing crime scenes, including identifying and sequestering witnesses in order to obtain their statements. In each of these cases, the witnesses’ accounts directly contradicted claims by police that the victims had been armed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it was not the only type of delay. In 11 of the 17 cases, investigators did not meet a 30-day goal set by the county to complete their reports. Detectives often took even longer to request analysis on important evidence, such as bullets fired by officers, fingerprinting, DNA samples and weapons allegedly carried by the victims. In six investigations, Vallejo sent requests for evidence testing to a crime lab half a year or more following the killings. In most of those cases, the delayed analyses appear to have hampered the investigations or led to cases being closed by investigators before some forensic reports could be included.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/20220701-vallejo-investigative-missteps-mobile.png\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-11919415\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/20220701-vallejo-investigative-missteps-mobile-800x964.png\" alt=\"A graph.\" width=\"800\" height=\"964\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/20220701-vallejo-investigative-missteps-mobile-800x964.png 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/20220701-vallejo-investigative-missteps-mobile-1020x1229.png 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/20220701-vallejo-investigative-missteps-mobile-160x193.png 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/20220701-vallejo-investigative-missteps-mobile.png 1260w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Foster’s case, detectives didn’t seek fingerprint testing of the flashlight that McMahon claimed Foster used as a weapon until eight months after the killing.

The panel is supposed to evaluate whether officers’ use of force was justified.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In October 2014, it flagged the officers’ tactics during the incident. The board found that Kenney placed himself in a “tactically disadvantageous position with a potentially armed subject” when he jumped on the hood of Romero’s car, and noted officers could have waited at their car for backup, records show. Nevertheless, officials noted, “The board felt that the officers relied upon their past training to successfully endure this dangerous and rapidly evolving incident.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It still recommended additional training, without specifying whether the training was intended for the two officers or the department as a whole.

Bidou approved the board’s findings, but he did not take further action in the case, the files show. By then, criminal accountability had been ruled out, too. The district attorney had declined to file charges three years earlier. His report noted that Vallejo investigators had interviewed Romero’s sisters long after the incident; the prosecutor suggested that the delay made their statements less credible than the officers’ accounts. He was also missing forensic analyses that would later show that the DNA and fingerprints taken from the pellet gun could not be matched to Romero.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If that investigation had been run properly, Kenney would have been off the street and he wouldn’t have killed my son,” asserted Lisa Moore, the mother of Jeremiah Moore, Kenney’s third shooting victim, about Vallejo’s handling of the case. “Four years, that’s a long time to figure out, ‘Oh, we messed up.

Joseph, who did not respond to requests for comment, left Vallejo in 2019 to join the nearby Fairfield Police Department, where Fairfield officials said he is currently on leave.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>‘With this delay, there is no justice’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The review board’s actions in the Romero case were not an anomaly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Made up of two to six ranked officers from within the Vallejo PD, the Critical Incident Review Board reviews an investigation, identifies whether officers violated any policies and makes recommendations to the chief, according to the department’s policy manuals. Our analysis of the 17 cases found that those reviews were consistently delayed. In 11 cases, the panel sent its report up the chain of command more than one year after the incident. And in six of those cases, the board sat on its findings for months before forwarding them, delaying the review of the chief of police, who makes the final decision on discipline, according to the analysis by Open Vallejo and ProPublica. In two cases from 2011 and 2012, the department was unable to show that a final administrative review was completed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The news organizations’ analysis found that the board often cleared officers even when it noted problems with how they had handled a shooting. In fact, the CIRB never determined that any officers had violated department policies, according to the department’s records. Often, it recommended training. But in at least a few of those cases, there is no evidence in training and investigative files that the involved officers completed it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In two cases in which the chief considered potential discipline, he opened yet another investigation because the board’s probe was insufficient, creating additional delays. All these delays by both the CIRB and the chief matter in part because California law gives departments only one year to impose discipline once officials learn of an incident, though that timeline is paused during a criminal investigation. (That timeframe expired in one of the 17 killings that we reviewed.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts said Vallejo’s approach is fundamentally flawed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s the whole purpose of having a disciplinary process in place: to assess quickly whether or not officers have engaged in misconduct and, if they’re a threat to the public, to get them removed from the department and off the streets,” said Judge LaDoris Hazzard Cordell, a former Superior Court judge for the County of Santa Clara. From 2010 to 2015, Cordell served as the independent police auditor for the city of San José, which created the office in 1993 following the beating of Rodney King by the Los Angeles Police Department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What is happening in Vallejo is quite the opposite: It’s just delay, delay. And with this delay, there is no justice,” Cordell said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over and over, the board seemed to miss opportunities to help the department fix practices that contributed to those killings. Despite delays, the CIRB did, in fact, note plenty of problems: officers who didn’t turn on their body cameras, failed to use less lethal options, mismanaged crime scenes or did not wait for backup. But, time and again, the board reports neither called out individual officers for problematic behavior nor recommended policy changes as a result of the failures they repeatedly identified.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The most common problem identified by the CIRB in its reviews of killings was that officers acted without sufficient “cover,” meaning they didn’t properly use structures like cars for protection when confronting civilians, amplifying the risk to themselves and others in already-dangerous situations. When officers don’t take cover, “they put themselves in jeopardy — they create jeopardy,” said Dekmar, the former civil rights police monitor for the U.S. Department of Justice. “That results in a use of force that may have been avoided.” Investigators noted cover issues in six of Vallejo’s 17 killings since 2011.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It first surfaced in the 2012 case of Marshall Tobin, a 43-year-old Black man who was sitting in his car sobbing over his phone when two officers, both under deadly force investigations for prior killings, approached him. Police had received a call about an armed man in a parking lot. After Tobin emerged from his car, officers tased him and then fired at least 11 rounds at him, killing him. The officers told investigators that after he was tased, Tobin had reached for a gun in his waistband. They did not respond to requests for comment for this story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11919413\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 670px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/Screen-Shot-2022-07-12-at-3.49.06-PM.png\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11919413 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/Screen-Shot-2022-07-12-at-3.49.06-PM.png\" alt=\"A black-and-white watercolor illustration of a Black man with sort of long hair and facial stubble, wearing a light T-shirt and dark jacket.

(Two months after that, one of those two officers, from inside his patrol car, shot at a Latino man fleeing a traffic stop — the officer’s third fatal incident in two years. The board approved of the shooting, and the chief cleared him.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At some point after the Tobin killing, then-police chief Joseph Kreins, who reviewed seven fatal shootings between 2012 and 2014, did add a clause to the policy manual that “encouraged” officers on vehicle pursuits to “remember the importance of cover, concealment, and safe distance.” But in 2015, despite the board’s findings in the Romero and Tobin shootings, the next chief of police, Andrew Bidou, removed it. Neither Kreins nor Bidou responded to requests for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The issue emerged again in 2017, when officers killed Jeffrey Barboa, a father of one who police said was wanted for an armed robbery. Following a high-speed pursuit that ended in a crash, Barboa had approached officers while holding a knife over his head. The officers, standing within 15 feet, did not step back, police records show. As Barboa slowly walked toward the officers, they fired approximately 50 rounds at him, hitting him at least 30 times in the chest, face, neck, arms and legs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11919414\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 664px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/Screen-Shot-2022-07-12-at-3.49.12-PM.png\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11919414 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/Screen-Shot-2022-07-12-at-3.49.12-PM.png\" alt=\"A black-and-white watercolor illustration of a middle-aged Latino man with dark hair, unsmiling, wearing a collared shirt and jacket.\" width=\"664\" height=\"946\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/Screen-Shot-2022-07-12-at-3.49.12-PM.png 664w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/Screen-Shot-2022-07-12-at-3.49.12-PM-160x228.png 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 664px) 100vw, 664px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jeffrey Barboa \u003ccite>(Kate Copeland/ProPublica)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>More than 28 months after that shooting, in December 2019, the CIRB found in its report that had the officers taken cover or put more distance between themselves and Barboa, they would have created time to communicate with him and “deploy less-lethal alternatives.” “It is this positioning that likely caused the situation to speed up,” the board wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nevertheless, the review board responded as it usually did: It identified no policy violation or specific officer at fault and issued a list of training recommendations with no accompanying plan to implement them.

The 33-year-old did not own a car, and cycled nearly everywhere he went around his hometown, often flanked by his teenage son and 5-year-old daughter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that night, Foster was riding alone, swerving in and out of traffic lanes without a bike light, and caught the attention of officer Ryan McMahon, who pursued Foster in his car. Foster hit the brakes, and McMahon ordered him to “come over and sit in front of my car,” according to the officer’s deposition in a civil rights lawsuit filed by Foster’s family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Stop messing with me,” Foster responded before taking off on his bike in the opposite direction, McMahon recalled in his deposition testimony. The officer got back in his car and chased him down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Foster soon fell from his bike and ran away. When McMahon continued the chase on foot, Vallejo policy required him to notify the department by radio. But that’s not what he did. Instead, he left his patrol car and followed Foster toward a dark walkway between two houses.\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The officer later said he did so in part because he saw Foster grabbing his pants, causing him to think Foster had a firearm. Foster, who was unarmed, kept running but fell. As he tried to get up, McMahon pushed him, causing Foster to fall down a small flight of cement stairs, the officer testified in the lawsuit. McMahon then straddled his back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Body camera footage shows Foster lying on the pavement without fighting back when McMahon, standing next to him, fired his Taser once more.

(While McMahon only turned on his body camera after he fired, the camera is designed to automatically capture 30 seconds of preactivation footage.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Officer McMahon failed to recognize his safety and the safety of the suspect Ronnell Foster outweighed apprehension for a minor traffic/pedestrian violation,” then-police chief Joseph Allio wrote in a memorandum.

In three of those cases, including McMahon’s, department officials noted officers’ initial mistakes in their reports, but not until after their second killing. In all three, the investigation into the second killing also revealed significant tactical errors, like not considering the use of nonlethal weapons.

This isn’t even basement standard practice,” said Louis Dekmar, the police chief in LaGrange, Georgia, since 1995, and a former civil rights police monitor for the U.S. Department of Justice. “Any agency that takes that long is saying that this isn’t a priority.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officials in the Foster case mishandled a crucial piece of evidence, police records show, then took months to request that the crime lab analyze it for fingerprints. Nineteen months passed between the killing and the submission of investigative findings to the police chief. Only then was the chief able to fully assess the case and consider discipline for that shooting. McMahon later testified that he feared for his life and that Foster, holding the flashlight, faced him “in a boxer type stance.” But body camera footage does not support the officer’s claim that Foster was facing him, and an expert for Foster’s family who reviewed enhanced footage and other forensic evidence concluded that Foster had immediately turned away. McMahon remained on the job, and was later fired over his involvement in the killing of another man, during which, a department investigation found, he endangered a fellow officer by shooting from behind him. He did not respond to requests for comment for this story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a March phone call, Shawny Williams, Vallejo’s police chief since November 2019, agreed to an interview but declined to schedule it; after we shared our findings with the department in writing, he provided a statement that pointed to recent administrative changes, like implementing a yearly crisis intervention training and requiring officers to use deescalation tactics when possible before engaging with a suspect. Williams also noted proposed reforms to how the department investigates its fatal shootings — some of which mirror recommendations first made to the department by a law enforcement consultant two years ago. Among them: a deadline for officials to produce their findings once all the evidence has been gathered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Williams declined to answer questions about any specific cases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“While I cannot comment on critical incidents which occurred prior to my arrival, or on ongoing matters, I can confirm that overall, the VPD continues the process of implementing police reforms,” the chief wrote. “All the above changes are designed to create enhanced internal accountability and will provide a more transparent process for our department and the community.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>‘A remarkable amount of incompetence’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>While there is no universal timeline for internal investigations, guidelines developed for the Department of Justice by a group of local police officials say departments should, at minimum, complete their probes before any statute of limitations on officer discipline expires (one year, in California, with some exceptions). \u003ca href=\"https://cops.usdoj.gov/ric/Publications/cops-p164-pub.pdf\">“It is preferable,” the group wrote, “to conclude investigations within 180 days.”\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in some of the DOJ’s own reviews of police departments across the country, it has pushed for even shorter deadlines when it comes to investigating an officer’s use of force, including fatal shootings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2012, for example, the Justice Department mandated that the East Haven Police Department in Connecticut complete deadly force investigations within 60 days and forward a report to the chief, who has 45 days to complete the review. And in 2014, the DOJ required a similar deadline in Albuquerque for reviews of serious uses of force.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in Vallejo, Open Vallejo and ProPublica found that the police department has taken an average of 20 months to review fatal shootings, from the time of a police killing to the date a chief signed off on the investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A number of mistakes drove delays in Vallejo and undermined the integrity of investigations. One core problem: Some witnesses to killings reported long delays before officers took their statements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s what happened in 2012, after Jaime Alvarado and his wife, Rocio Alvarado, said \u003ca href=\"https://www.buzzfeed.com/albertsamaha/three-shootings-in-vallejo\">they witnessed Vallejo police shoot their neighbor Jeremiah Moore\u003c/a>, a young man whose mother said he was on the autism spectrum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police had responded to 911 calls about loud noises coming from Moore’s home, including the sound of glass breaking. Although officers and an intoxicated witness later claimed Moore had been armed with a .22-caliber rifle, Jaime Alvarado said Moore was naked and unarmed, with his hands up and shaking from fright, when he was shot and killed by Vallejo officer Sean Kenney. (A forensic analysis could not find Moore’s fingerprints on the rifle, which was recovered in his home, while a later one found small traces of his blood on it.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11919410\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 666px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/Screen-Shot-2022-07-12-at-3.48.37-PM.png\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11919410 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/Screen-Shot-2022-07-12-at-3.48.37-PM.png\" alt=\"A black-and-white watercolor illustration of a white man smiling broadly as if laughing, with a goatee, beard, baseball cap, and baggy T-shirt.\" width=\"666\" height=\"954\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/Screen-Shot-2022-07-12-at-3.48.37-PM.png 666w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/Screen-Shot-2022-07-12-at-3.48.37-PM-160x229.png 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 666px) 100vw, 666px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jeremiah Moore \u003ccite>(Kate Copeland/ProPublica)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Alvarado said he tried to approach a Vallejo officer a few hours after he saw the killing through his second-floor window, but was told that “we don’t have time to talk” and to “get inside the house.” No one from the department tried to contact him after that, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They would not pay attention to me,” Alvarado told Open Vallejo and ProPublica.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Alvarado, detectives didn’t take his statement until several months later, after an attorney hired by Moore’s family to sue the city facilitated the interview. Yet there is no record of that interview in Vallejo’s case file, and the department ultimately cleared the officer in the killing. Neither the Moore family attorney nor the police department responded to questions about Alvarado’s account. The Moore family’s lawsuit was settled in 2016 for $250,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was one of three investigations among the 17 killings in which Vallejo detectives interviewed one or more eyewitnesses months later or did not interview them at all, despite a county policy that states department officials are responsible for “immediately” securing crime scenes, including identifying and sequestering witnesses in order to obtain their statements. In each of these cases, the witnesses’ accounts directly contradicted claims by police that the victims had been armed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it was not the only type of delay. In 11 of the 17 cases, investigators did not meet a 30-day goal set by the county to complete their reports. Detectives often took even longer to request analysis on important evidence, such as bullets fired by officers, fingerprinting, DNA samples and weapons allegedly carried by the victims. In six investigations, Vallejo sent requests for evidence testing to a crime lab half a year or more following the killings. In most of those cases, the delayed analyses appear to have hampered the investigations or led to cases being closed by investigators before some forensic reports could be included.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/20220701-vallejo-investigative-missteps-mobile.png\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-11919415\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/20220701-vallejo-investigative-missteps-mobile-800x964.png\" alt=\"A graph.\" width=\"800\" height=\"964\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/20220701-vallejo-investigative-missteps-mobile-800x964.png 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/20220701-vallejo-investigative-missteps-mobile-1020x1229.png 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/20220701-vallejo-investigative-missteps-mobile-160x193.png 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/20220701-vallejo-investigative-missteps-mobile.png 1260w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Foster’s case, detectives didn’t seek fingerprint testing of the flashlight that McMahon claimed Foster used as a weapon until eight months after the killing. When they finally made a request, the lab could not find Foster’s fingerprints. Experts say \u003ca href=\"https://www.researchgate.net/publication/233901042_Determination_of_latent_fingerprint_degradation_patterns_-_A_real_fieldwork_study\">long delays can cause biological evidence to degrade\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The consequences of delayed resolutions of investigations are severe,” the Justice Department wrote in its \u003ca href=\"https://www.justice.gov/opa/file/925846/download\">investigation of the Chicago Police Department in 2017\u003c/a>, triggered after a white officer fatally shot Black teenager Laquan McDonald. “Memories fade, evidence is lost, and investigators may not be able to locate those crucial witnesses needed to determine whether misconduct has occurred.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For years, the Solano County district attorney’s office based their decisions about whether to charge Vallejo police officers primarily on evidence gathered by Vallejo officials. This made some of the detectives’ missteps especially meaningful. For example, in three of the killings from 2012, prosecutors cleared officers before all the evidence in the case had been analyzed by forensic experts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Either there is a remarkable amount of incompetence or it’s malicious,” said Seth Stoughton, a professor at the University of South Carolina School of Law and former Florida police officer, about the Vallejo Police Department. “Neither should be acceptable.” Stoughton testified as a national police standards expert for the prosecution in the trial of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin, who was convicted of the murder of George Floyd.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Williams, the Vallejo police chief, declined to answer specific questions about the numerous delays.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Solano County’s current district attorney, Krishna Abrams, who took office shortly after the officer involved in the Moore shooting was cleared, also declined to comment on the findings of this investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Abrams wrote in a statement that her office has continued to make it a priority to use best practices for investigating officer-involved fatal incidents. She pointed to rule changes from 2020 that require that future investigations of Vallejo killings involve criminal investigators from other departments in the county. She did not comment, however, on another rule change made that year that removed a 30-day target for detectives to complete their reports.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>While investigations drag, officers kill again\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>As Vallejo’s investigations dragged on, sometimes for years, officers who had killed patrolled the city’s streets, their mistakes unaddressed. In three cases, department officials flagged officers’ actions only after they were involved in another killing, police records show.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officer Sean Kenney killed Anton Barrett in May 2012. Kenney was still under investigation for that shooting when, on the morning of Sept. 2, 2012, he and his partner, Dustin Joseph, pulled up in front of the home of a man named Mario Romero. Romero, who identified as Black, Indigenous and Latino, was sitting in his parked Ford Thunderbird with his brother-in-law, police and court records show. The two white officers claimed that the young men seemed shocked to see them approaching and that Romero’s car was encroaching on the sidewalk, according to the officers’ depositions in a civil rights lawsuit filed by Romero’s family. Kenney also claimed that a similar vehicle had been involved in a shooting the prior month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Within seconds and without exchanging a word, Kenney and Joseph exited their vehicle and started firing, according to Joseph’s deposition. Then, Kenney jumped on the hood of the Thunderbird, according to court and police records.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The officers fired 31 rounds in total, striking Romero, a father of one, 30 times in the face, neck, forearms, chest and left side of his body. His brother-in-law was hit once in the pelvis and survived. Officers pulled both men from the car after the shooting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11919411\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 664px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/Screen-Shot-2022-07-12-at-3.48.49-PM.png\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11919411 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/Screen-Shot-2022-07-12-at-3.48.49-PM.png\" alt=\"A black-and-white watercolor illustration of a Black man with longish hair smiling and looking up at the viewer, wearing a Black T-shirt.\" width=\"664\" height=\"948\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/Screen-Shot-2022-07-12-at-3.48.49-PM.png 664w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/Screen-Shot-2022-07-12-at-3.48.49-PM-160x228.png 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 664px) 100vw, 664px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mario Romero \u003ccite>(Kate Copeland/ProPublica)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Joseph told detectives that Romero had briefly gotten out of the car and grabbed the butt of a gun in his waistband, though officials never found a firearm. Kenney claimed he recovered a pellet gun wedged between the rear portion of the driver’s seat and the center console. Two weeks after the incident, the officers were sent back to patrol. While police experts said many departments don’t prohibit this, they also said that having officers with open deadly force investigations go out on patrol can be dangerous for officers and community members alike.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It would take detectives another eight weeks to interview Romero’s three sisters, eyewitnesses in the case who contradicted the officers’ accounts.

Kenney, with three open deadly force investigations, was awarded the Medal of Valor for his role in the Moore shooting, according to Kenney’s deposition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Roughly two years after the Romero shooting, the department’s Critical Incident Review Board finally issued findings in the administrative probe. The panel is supposed to evaluate whether officers’ use of force was justified.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In October 2014, it flagged the officers’ tactics during the incident. The board found that Kenney placed himself in a “tactically disadvantageous position with a potentially armed subject” when he jumped on the hood of Romero’s car, and noted officers could have waited at their car for backup, records show. Nevertheless, officials noted, “The board felt that the officers relied upon their past training to successfully endure this dangerous and rapidly evolving incident.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It still recommended additional training, without specifying whether the training was intended for the two officers or the department as a whole. The board then failed to forward its own completed report to supervisors for nearly a year. During that time, the city settled the lawsuit for $2 million.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet another year would pass before then-Vallejo Police Chief Andrew Bidou assessed the case for disciplinary, training and policy considerations. Bidou approved the board’s findings, but he did not take further action in the case, the files show. By then, criminal accountability had been ruled out, too. The district attorney had declined to file charges three years earlier. His report noted that Vallejo investigators had interviewed Romero’s sisters long after the incident; the prosecutor suggested that the delay made their statements less credible than the officers’ accounts. He was also missing forensic analyses that would later show that the DNA and fingerprints taken from the pellet gun could not be matched to Romero.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If that investigation had been run properly, Kenney would have been off the street and he wouldn’t have killed my son,” asserted Lisa Moore, the mother of Jeremiah Moore, Kenney’s third shooting victim, about Vallejo’s handling of the case. “Four years, that’s a long time to figure out, ‘Oh, we messed up. What did we do wrong so that this doesn’t happen again?’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kenney retired from the Vallejo Police Department in 2018, after the board cleared him in the Moore shooting. He declined to comment for this story. As for Joseph, the Vallejo board ultimately flagged officers’ tactics during his second deadly incident, and recommended training. Joseph, who did not respond to requests for comment, left Vallejo in 2019 to join the nearby Fairfield Police Department, where Fairfield officials said he is currently on leave.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>‘With this delay, there is no justice’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The review board’s actions in the Romero case were not an anomaly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Made up of two to six ranked officers from within the Vallejo PD, the Critical Incident Review Board reviews an investigation, identifies whether officers violated any policies and makes recommendations to the chief, according to the department’s policy manuals. Our analysis of the 17 cases found that those reviews were consistently delayed. In 11 cases, the panel sent its report up the chain of command more than one year after the incident. And in six of those cases, the board sat on its findings for months before forwarding them, delaying the review of the chief of police, who makes the final decision on discipline, according to the analysis by Open Vallejo and ProPublica. In two cases from 2011 and 2012, the department was unable to show that a final administrative review was completed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The news organizations’ analysis found that the board often cleared officers even when it noted problems with how they had handled a shooting. In fact, the CIRB never determined that any officers had violated department policies, according to the department’s records. Often, it recommended training. But in at least a few of those cases, there is no evidence in training and investigative files that the involved officers completed it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In two cases in which the chief considered potential discipline, he opened yet another investigation because the board’s probe was insufficient, creating additional delays. All these delays by both the CIRB and the chief matter in part because California law gives departments only one year to impose discipline once officials learn of an incident, though that timeline is paused during a criminal investigation. (That timeframe expired in one of the 17 killings that we reviewed.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts said Vallejo’s approach is fundamentally flawed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s the whole purpose of having a disciplinary process in place: to assess quickly whether or not officers have engaged in misconduct and, if they’re a threat to the public, to get them removed from the department and off the streets,” said Judge LaDoris Hazzard Cordell, a former Superior Court judge for the County of Santa Clara. From 2010 to 2015, Cordell served as the independent police auditor for the city of San José, which created the office in 1993 following the beating of Rodney King by the Los Angeles Police Department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What is happening in Vallejo is quite the opposite: It’s just delay, delay. And with this delay, there is no justice,” Cordell said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over and over, the board seemed to miss opportunities to help the department fix practices that contributed to those killings. Despite delays, the CIRB did, in fact, note plenty of problems: officers who didn’t turn on their body cameras, failed to use less lethal options, mismanaged crime scenes or did not wait for backup. But, time and again, the board reports neither called out individual officers for problematic behavior nor recommended policy changes as a result of the failures they repeatedly identified.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The most common problem identified by the CIRB in its reviews of killings was that officers acted without sufficient “cover,” meaning they didn’t properly use structures like cars for protection when confronting civilians, amplifying the risk to themselves and others in already-dangerous situations. When officers don’t take cover, “they put themselves in jeopardy — they create jeopardy,” said Dekmar, the former civil rights police monitor for the U.S. Department of Justice. “That results in a use of force that may have been avoided.” Investigators noted cover issues in six of Vallejo’s 17 killings since 2011.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It first surfaced in the 2012 case of Marshall Tobin, a 43-year-old Black man who was sitting in his car sobbing over his phone when two officers, both under deadly force investigations for prior killings, approached him. Police had received a call about an armed man in a parking lot. After Tobin emerged from his car, officers tased him and then fired at least 11 rounds at him, killing him. The officers told investigators that after he was tased, Tobin had reached for a gun in his waistband. They did not respond to requests for comment for this story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11919413\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 670px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/Screen-Shot-2022-07-12-at-3.49.06-PM.png\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11919413 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/Screen-Shot-2022-07-12-at-3.49.06-PM.png\" alt=\"A black-and-white watercolor illustration of a Black man with sort of long hair and facial stubble, wearing a light T-shirt and dark jacket.

(Two months after that, one of those two officers, from inside his patrol car, shot at a Latino man fleeing a traffic stop — the officer’s third fatal incident in two years. The board approved of the shooting, and the chief cleared him.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At some point after the Tobin killing, then-police chief Joseph Kreins, who reviewed seven fatal shootings between 2012 and 2014, did add a clause to the policy manual that “encouraged” officers on vehicle pursuits to “remember the importance of cover, concealment, and safe distance.” But in 2015, despite the board’s findings in the Romero and Tobin shootings, the next chief of police, Andrew Bidou, removed it. Neither Kreins nor Bidou responded to requests for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The issue emerged again in 2017, when officers killed Jeffrey Barboa, a father of one who police said was wanted for an armed robbery. Following a high-speed pursuit that ended in a crash, Barboa had approached officers while holding a knife over his head. The officers, standing within 15 feet, did not step back, police records show. As Barboa slowly walked toward the officers, they fired approximately 50 rounds at him, hitting him at least 30 times in the chest, face, neck, arms and legs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11919414\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 664px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/Screen-Shot-2022-07-12-at-3.49.12-PM.png\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11919414 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/Screen-Shot-2022-07-12-at-3.49.12-PM.png\" alt=\"A black-and-white watercolor illustration of a middle-aged Latino man with dark hair, unsmiling, wearing a collared shirt and jacket.\" width=\"664\" height=\"946\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/Screen-Shot-2022-07-12-at-3.49.12-PM.png 664w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/Screen-Shot-2022-07-12-at-3.49.12-PM-160x228.png 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 664px) 100vw, 664px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jeffrey Barboa \u003ccite>(Kate Copeland/ProPublica)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>More than 28 months after that shooting, in December 2019, the CIRB found in its report that had the officers taken cover or put more distance between themselves and Barboa, they would have created time to communicate with him and “deploy less-lethal alternatives.” “It is this positioning that likely caused the situation to speed up,” the board wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nevertheless, the review board responded as it usually did: It identified no policy violation or specific officer at fault and issued a list of training recommendations with no accompanying plan to implement them.

And so I believe that we're on the front lines, we're the vanguard of police reform.'[/pullquote]The original monitoring team and its successor, appointed in 2010, have both praised and condemned the Oakland police for their conduct since 2003. But in the ensuing two decades, one fundamental change has made the biggest difference: Oakland residents have garnered a lot more power over their police department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>First, in \u003ca href=\"https://www.oaklandca.gov/resources/learn-more-about-measure-ll\">a 2016 ballot measure\u003c/a>, the city’s voters put the whole department under civilian oversight. Then, in 2020, the civilian police commission fired the city’s police chief.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In December, the city hired its first inspector general for the police department, a civilian position overseen by the civilian board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rocky Lucia, an attorney for the Oakland Police Officers’ Association and several other Bay Area police department unions, said the level of oversight in Oakland exceeds what he’s seen anywhere else.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They pay a lot more attention to police conduct in Oakland,” Lucia said. “There’s more eyes on people. There’s policies, software programs, there’s resources committed. It’s more than I’ve ever seen anywhere else in the state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lucia wonders if Oakland should be spending the amount of money it does on oversight, given \u003ca href=\"https://www.oaklandca.gov/news/2021/opd-addresses-a-challenging-year-in-crime-with-year-end-data\">rising crime rates\u003c/a> that began during the pandemic and the city’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.oaklandca.gov/news/2020/city-of-oakland-faces-possible-62m-shortfall#:~:text=The%20report%20shows%20that%20the,indicates%20this%20shortfall%20is%20widening.\">always-muddy financial situation\u003c/a>, only 18 months removed from a $62 million budget shortfall. But he also acknowledges that the department is identifying potentially problematic officers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They’re catching these things early,” Lucia said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 id=\"h-a-tale-of-two-scandals\">A tale of two scandals\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Two years before the beating of Delphine Allen, a different and more infamous gang task force controversy erupted 350 miles south: the Los Angeles Police Department’s Rampart scandal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Community Resources Against Street Hoodlums — or CRASH — unit was to Los Angeles what the Riders were to Oakland: an elite group of cops on a special detail that made big busts in the LAPD’s Rampart Division.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CRASH unit officers also were accused of robbing a bank, stealing cocaine from the evidence room and replacing it with Bisquick, and \u003ca href=\"https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/lapd/scandal/cron.html\">beating a suspect until he vomited blood\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a result, in 1998 the LAPD instituted a new policy: Any complaints against an officer would trigger an investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Complaints against officers piled up, major crimes arrests dropped, and officers started to complain that the system treated them unfairly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Complaints against officers soared,” wrote University of Chicago economics professor Canice Prendergast in \u003ca href=\"https://bfi.uchicago.edu/insight/research-summary/drive-and-wave-the-response-to-lapd-police-reforms-after-rampart/\">a 2021 paper analyzing the scandal’s fallout\u003c/a>. “These were sustained at high rates, resulting in suspensions, resignations and terminations at levels far higher than before.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Any complaint tied up officers’ promotions and transfers. Prendergast found that the level of sustained complaints was even more damaging to police morale.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In response, the officers radically reduced their engagement with the public, according to Prendergast’s paper, “Drive and Wave,” which is named after the practice of nonengagement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Arrests plummeted. The LAPD accepted a federal monitor from the U.S. Department of Justice in 2000 and nearly 90% of LAPD officers interviewed by the monitor in 2001 said a fear of discipline stopped them from “proactively” doing their jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, the LAPD was handed a big win by, of all things, the federal monitor itself, which encouraged the department to clear up its backlog of complaints.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prendergast found the police department’s solution in long-buried LAPD archives, a decision that was put out among the department’s employees but never publicized: The LAPD gave its commanding officers the power to dismiss complaints against their subordinates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That meant complaints could be dismissed moments after they were filed by an officer’s superior.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a result, sustained complaints fell dramatically, beginning in 2003, and penalties for sustained complaints were much more rare, Prendergast found.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>From 2016 to 2020, the last year for which statistics are available, the LAPD sustained complaints at a rate of 5.2%, below the statewide average for that period.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Disciplinary measures across the board became less likely,” Prendergast wrote, “even when an investigation ruled against the officer.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 id=\"h-some-officers-just-tired\">Some officers 'just tired'\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Under California law, there are four outcomes for \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/explainers/california-crime-numbers/\">a complaint against a police officer\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>— Complaints can be sustained, meaning the investigation proved the allegation to be true by a preponderance of evidence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>— An officer can be exonerated, meaning the officer did what was described, but that action didn’t violate department law or policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>— Complaints can be ruled “unsustained,” meaning the investigation failed to clearly prove or disprove the allegation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>— Complaints can be determined “unfounded,” meaning the investigation clearly showed the allegation was untrue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For much of the Oakland Police Department’s time under a federal monitor, most complaints were relegated to the “unfounded” bin, said John Burris, one of two lead plaintiff attorneys in the settlement agreement between the police department and the city following the Riders scandal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But with increased civilian oversight since 2016, he said far fewer complaints were dismissed as unfounded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Burris said cases dismissed as “unfounded” were the ones that bothered him the most.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[Complainants are] not lying. I may not be able to prove it, but something happened,” Burris said, and noted that unfounded complaints also disappear from officers’ personnel files.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today, when a complaint is filed, the Oakland police and the Civilian Police Review Agency launch parallel investigations. Each draws its own conclusions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When there’s a difference of opinion, the question goes to another set of civilian monitors — the civilian Police Commission — which holds final authority on questions of officer misconduct.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tyfahra Milele, chair of the commission, said she can empathize with officers who feel they are over-policed by their civilian overseers. She said that officers tell her they’re more afraid to engage residents because they’re worried about a complaint, which can tie up their promotions and damage their careers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the recent police-related killings of Ahmaud Arbery in Atlanta, Breonna Taylor in Louisville, Kentucky, and George Floyd in Minneapolis, “there’s much more of a vigilance around police and accountability,” Milele said. “Some officers are like, ‘OK, I’m gonna go to work and ride this wave. Some [officers say], this isn’t the role for me, all these other factors are making it difficult.’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then “we have some officers that are just tired,” she added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite what Burris, the attorney, described as widespread opposition among the department’s rank and file to civilian oversight, it has resulted in a higher level of scrutiny of officer behavior, according to lawyers on both sides of the city’s 2003 negotiated settlement agreement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorneys representing Allen, who originally brought the lawsuit in Oakland, expect the settlement agreement with the police department to end in 2023 or 2024.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A hearing before a U.S. District Court in San Francisco to determine the department’s progress is set for April 27.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s taken a long time, but we’re finally getting traction,” said Burris. “Our hope is we’ll fundamentally ingrain things in the culture.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He added, “It’s my worst nightmare about the case, that it’s all for naught. That it goes back to the way it was.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

But in the ensuing two decades, one fundamental change has made the biggest difference: Oakland residents have garnered a lot more power over their police department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>First, in \u003ca href=\"https://www.oaklandca.gov/resources/learn-more-about-measure-ll\">a 2016 ballot measure\u003c/a>, the city’s voters put the whole department under civilian oversight. Then, in 2020, the civilian police commission fired the city’s police chief.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In December, the city hired its first inspector general for the police department, a civilian position overseen by the civilian board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rocky Lucia, an attorney for the Oakland Police Officers’ Association and several other Bay Area police department unions, said the level of oversight in Oakland exceeds what he’s seen anywhere else.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They pay a lot more attention to police conduct in Oakland,” Lucia said. “There’s more eyes on people. There’s policies, software programs, there’s resources committed. It’s more than I’ve ever seen anywhere else in the state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lucia wonders if Oakland should be spending the amount of money it does on oversight, given \u003ca href=\"https://www.oaklandca.gov/news/2021/opd-addresses-a-challenging-year-in-crime-with-year-end-data\">rising crime rates\u003c/a> that began during the pandemic and the city’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.oaklandca.gov/news/2020/city-of-oakland-faces-possible-62m-shortfall#:~:text=The%20report%20shows%20that%20the,indicates%20this%20shortfall%20is%20widening.\">always-muddy financial situation\u003c/a>, only 18 months removed from a $62 million budget shortfall. But he also acknowledges that the department is identifying potentially problematic officers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They’re catching these things early,” Lucia said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 id=\"h-a-tale-of-two-scandals\">A tale of two scandals\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Two years before the beating of Delphine Allen, a different and more infamous gang task force controversy erupted 350 miles south: the Los Angeles Police Department’s Rampart scandal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Community Resources Against Street Hoodlums — or CRASH — unit was to Los Angeles what the Riders were to Oakland: an elite group of cops on a special detail that made big busts in the LAPD’s Rampart Division.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CRASH unit officers also were accused of robbing a bank, stealing cocaine from the evidence room and replacing it with Bisquick, and \u003ca href=\"https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/lapd/scandal/cron.html\">beating a suspect until he vomited blood\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a result, in 1998 the LAPD instituted a new policy: Any complaints against an officer would trigger an investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Complaints against officers piled up, major crimes arrests dropped, and officers started to complain that the system treated them unfairly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Complaints against officers soared,” wrote University of Chicago economics professor Canice Prendergast in \u003ca href=\"https://bfi.uchicago.edu/insight/research-summary/drive-and-wave-the-response-to-lapd-police-reforms-after-rampart/\">a 2021 paper analyzing the scandal’s fallout\u003c/a>. “These were sustained at high rates, resulting in suspensions, resignations and terminations at levels far higher than before.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Any complaint tied up officers’ promotions and transfers. Prendergast found that the level of sustained complaints was even more damaging to police morale.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In response, the officers radically reduced their engagement with the public, according to Prendergast’s paper, “Drive and Wave,” which is named after the practice of nonengagement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Arrests plummeted. The LAPD accepted a federal monitor from the U.S. Department of Justice in 2000 and nearly 90% of LAPD officers interviewed by the monitor in 2001 said a fear of discipline stopped them from “proactively” doing their jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, the LAPD was handed a big win by, of all things, the federal monitor itself, which encouraged the department to clear up its backlog of complaints.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prendergast found the police department’s solution in long-buried LAPD archives, a decision that was put out among the department’s employees but never publicized: The LAPD gave its commanding officers the power to dismiss complaints against their subordinates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That meant complaints could be dismissed moments after they were filed by an officer’s superior.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a result, sustained complaints fell dramatically, beginning in 2003, and penalties for sustained complaints were much more rare, Prendergast found.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>From 2016 to 2020, the last year for which statistics are available, the LAPD sustained complaints at a rate of 5.2%, below the statewide average for that period.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Disciplinary measures across the board became less likely,” Prendergast wrote, “even when an investigation ruled against the officer.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 id=\"h-some-officers-just-tired\">Some officers 'just tired'\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Under California law, there are four outcomes for \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/explainers/california-crime-numbers/\">a complaint against a police officer\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>— Complaints can be sustained, meaning the investigation proved the allegation to be true by a preponderance of evidence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>— An officer can be exonerated, meaning the officer did what was described, but that action didn’t violate department law or policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>— Complaints can be ruled “unsustained,” meaning the investigation failed to clearly prove or disprove the allegation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>— Complaints can be determined “unfounded,” meaning the investigation clearly showed the allegation was untrue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For much of the Oakland Police Department’s time under a federal monitor, most complaints were relegated to the “unfounded” bin, said John Burris, one of two lead plaintiff attorneys in the settlement agreement between the police department and the city following the Riders scandal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But with increased civilian oversight since 2016, he said far fewer complaints were dismissed as unfounded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Burris said cases dismissed as “unfounded” were the ones that bothered him the most.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[Complainants are] not lying. I may not be able to prove it, but something happened,” Burris said, and noted that unfounded complaints also disappear from officers’ personnel files.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today, when a complaint is filed, the Oakland police and the Civilian Police Review Agency launch parallel investigations. Each draws its own conclusions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When there’s a difference of opinion, the question goes to another set of civilian monitors — the civilian Police Commission — which holds final authority on questions of officer misconduct.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tyfahra Milele, chair of the commission, said she can empathize with officers who feel they are over-policed by their civilian overseers. She said that officers tell her they’re more afraid to engage residents because they’re worried about a complaint, which can tie up their promotions and damage their careers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the recent police-related killings of Ahmaud Arbery in Atlanta, Breonna Taylor in Louisville, Kentucky, and George Floyd in Minneapolis, “there’s much more of a vigilance around police and accountability,” Milele said. “Some officers are like, ‘OK, I’m gonna go to work and ride this wave. Some [officers say], this isn’t the role for me, all these other factors are making it difficult.’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then “we have some officers that are just tired,” she added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite what Burris, the attorney, described as widespread opposition among the department’s rank and file to civilian oversight, it has resulted in a higher level of scrutiny of officer behavior, according to lawyers on both sides of the city’s 2003 negotiated settlement agreement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorneys representing Allen, who originally brought the lawsuit in Oakland, expect the settlement agreement with the police department to end in 2023 or 2024.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A hearing before a U.S. District Court in San Francisco to determine the department’s progress is set for April 27.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s taken a long time, but we’re finally getting traction,” said Burris. “Our hope is we’ll fundamentally ingrain things in the culture.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
