AND SO LET'S GET STARTED.

UM, BE BEFORE WE GET STARTED WITH THE MISSION OF THE COMMUNITY POLICE OVERSIGHT BOARD AND GO INTO OUR, UM, PUBLIC COMMENT.

I WANT TO TAKE A MOMENT TO JUST RECOGNIZE THE VICTIMS OF THE ALLEN OUTLET MALL MASS SHOOTING.

THIS ONE HITS A LITTLE DIFFERENTLY BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT ONE OF MY FRIENDS FROM COLLEGE IS ALSO A VICTIM OF THAT SHOOTING, AND HE DID SURVIVE, AND HE'S RECOVERING.

AND, BUT I WANT US TO JUST TAKE A FEW MINUTES, 60 SECONDS OF SILENCE.

WE CAN MEDITATE, YOU CAN PRAY JUST TO, SO THAT THOSE THAT ARE VICTIMS AND THEIR FAMILIES KNOW THAT THEY'RE IN OUR THOUGHTS.

AND I WILL START THAT RIGHT NOW.

NOW WE'LL GET STARTED.

UM, THE MISSION OF THE COMMUNITY POLICE OVERSIGHT BOARD IS TO ENHANCE THE PUBLIC'S TRUST.

UH, AND OUR FIRST SPEAKER IS, DO MR. DOLORES PHILLIPS.

MS. PHILLIPS, YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES AND I'LL, I'LL TELL YOU WHEN TO START.

YOU CAN GO AHEAD NOW.

CHAIR ON 4 11 20 23 LAST MONTH, YOU AND MS. MCCLEARY COLLECTIVELY DELIBERATELY VIOLATED THE RULES THAT YOU JUST READ FOR THIS QUORUM WHEN YOU DIDN'T ALLOW ME TO SPEAK.

HOW DO YOU S O C P O C P O B, DISCIPLINE AND REPRIMAND OFFICERS AND CITIZENS FOR LESS THAN WHAT THEY MASK? NOW, WHEN MS. MCCLARY, EITHER LAST NOVEMBER, DECEMBER, 2022 ON THE RECORD, SAID SHE HAD NEVER LOST OR MISPLACED ANYTHING THAT BELONGED TO ME, SHE INCRIMINATED HERSELF ON THE RECORD.

THE COPY OF THIS, THE PHYSICAL COPY OF WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT RIGHT NOW, WAS IN THE POSSESSION OF MS. MCCLARY.

SHE MISPLACED IT.

EMAILS I'VE SENT YOU.

THIS ALONE PROVES THAT IT'S AN ONGOING COVERUP WITHIN A COVERUP.

MS. WOODS FOUND THIS CD, THE PHYSICAL CD OF THIS PAPER COPY IN THE DESK OF SERGEANT ANDERSON.

AND SERGEANT ANDERSON WAS MADE TO BE THE PUN AS THOUGH SHE LEFT THE CD, BUT THE WHOLE TIME IT WAS IN MS. MCLAREN'S POSSESSION BECAUSE I GAVE HER SEVERAL CDS, DOCUMENTS, POLICE REPORTS, SHOWING THAT IT WAS A COVERUP AND THAT I WAS UNLAWFULLY ARRESTED BECAUSE I WAS SPEAKING OF A COVERUP EDUCATION SABOTAGE WITH THE LINKS, CONNECTIONS AND NETWORKS.

THAT'S ALSO TRUE.

I WAS IN A DUAL DEGREE MASTER'S PROGRAM AT UT.

A, YOUR CONNECTIONS, NAMI GREEN OAKS FABRICATED POLICE REPORT.

MEDICAL RECORDS KICKED ME OUTTA U T A OF A SOCIAL WORK AND A CRIMINAL JUSTICE DEGREE.

I COULD STILL GO TO SCHOOL, BUT THEY KICKED ME OUT THOSE PROGRAMS. SO THEY ACCEPTED MY MONIES AND SAID, OH, NO, NO, NO, YOU NOT ACCEPTED.

BUT I GOT THE EMAILS.

I WAS UNCONDITIONALLY ADMITTED IN SOCIAL WORK IN CRIMINAL JUSTICE FOR A DUAL MASTER'S DEGREE PROGRAM.

IN THE VIDEO ALSO THAT MS. MCCLEARY HAD 10 25, 20 20 13, 20 20 13, IT WAS TWO HOURS OF VIDEO.

HE ERASED OUT OF THAT MEETING, AND IT WAS AT THE HEADQUARTERS ON THE FIRST FLOOR IN THE LOBBY, PREARRANGED BY MAYOR ROLLINS, SCOTT GRIGGS AND HIS SUPPORTER SAID, Y'ALL STRONG ON HIM BECAUSE OF HIS VOTE NOT BEING IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE TRINITY TOLL PROJECT.

ROBERT GRO GRODEN, A NON-MINORITY MALE, PROVED THAT Y'ALL BATTLED HIM FOR 23 YEARS, SPRAYED HIM WITH KIM TRAILS, TOOK HIM TO JAIL.

83 TICKETS, ALL DISMISSED OVER TIME.

BUT I'M BLACK.

I KNOW IT'S A DIFFERENCE, BUT I'M GONNA BE KNOCKING NOW THE F B I INVOLVED.

JUST KNOW THAT YOU, MS. MCCLARY FOR SURE.

OR WITNESSES.

I'M GONNA ASK FOR YOU TO BE SUBPOENAED OF YOUR KNOWLEDGE.

I'M GONNA ASK FOR YOU TO ALSO TRY TO GIVE THE INFORMATION THAT YOU KNOW OF MS. WOODS.

AND I KEPT SAYING, OH, YOU CAN JUST HIT THE FREEWAY.

YOU KNOW, ALL HE HAD TO DO WAS GO UP AT BETTER ART LANG.

MM-HMM.

TO ILLINOIS AND HIT THE FREEWAY.

HE WAS GOING, HE WENT DOWN.

COR HE WENT DOWN AND WAS, WHO WAS HE? NO, HE, HE TURNED JUST

[00:20:01]

BEFORE HE GOT TO INDUSTRIAL, HE, HE WAS GOING, HE WENT UP EIGHTH STREET.

THAT'S WHAT HE EIGHTH STREET.

SO HE WASN'T FOLLOWING THE GPS.

HE WAS JUST UHUH.

HE WAS JUST GOING PLACES.

HE, HE, THE GPS LOOKED LIKE, I DON'T KNOW, AT ONE POINT, WAS GOING ALL KIND OF DIRECTIONS.

OKAY.

AND SO WHEN I WOULD TELL HIM, HE, HE LOOKED LIKE HE WAS GETTING MAD.

MM-HMM.

TELLING ME, BABY, YOU KNOW MM-HMM.

LIKE HE WAS NOT GONNA DO WHAT HE WAS SUPPOSED TO DO.

MM-HMM.

, HE KEPT LOOKING AT ME THROUGH THE MIRROR, JUST KEPT LOOKING AT ME, JUST KEPT.

AND SO, UM, WHEN WE GOT ON THE FREEWAY, I TOLD HIM, I SAID, YOU CAN GO THIS WAY.

NO, NO, NORTH GO THIS WAY.

SO HE WAS GOING FURTHER NORTH THAN GOING SOUTH DOWNTOWN.

OKAY.

HE WAS GOING, HE KEPT GETTING OVER IN THE LANES GOING FURTHER NORTH THAN GOING THROUGH, YOU KNOW, CAUSE HE COULD HAVE WENT, HE COULD HAVE WENT THROUGH TOWN TO GET TO STEELMAN.

YEAH.

BUT STILL, IF WAS CLOSER TO LIKE TOWN, THEN .

BUT ANYWAY, HE WAS, HE WAS SUPPOSED TO GO CONTINENTAL.

OKAY.

AND, AND HE WAS GOING THE TOLL.

OKAY.

HE, HE WAS HEADED TO THE, TO, THAT'S WHEN I TOLD HIM TO LET ME OUT MM-HMM.

MM-HMM.

I RECENTLY FOUND OUT I LOST MY KEY, BUT I JUMPED.

MM-HMM.

AND I SAID, WELL, HE WENT PAST MM-HMM.

THAT'S WHERE HE WAS HEADED.

AND SO I JUMPED, OH.

AND, UH, I WENT OVER THE, THE, UM, FREEWAY AND I WALKED TO PIZZA HUT.

I WAS JUST SCARED, TERRIFIED, UH, WALKING IN THE RAIN.

UM, SO I CALLED, I CALLED MY, UH, ORGANIZERS AND TOLD 'EM WHAT HAPPENED.

BUT THEY WANTED TO COME GET ME AND SEND ME ANOTHER LIP.

I SAID, UHUH, I AIN'T GETTING ANOTHER LIFT TONIGHT.

I SAID, I, I CALLED ME A CAB AND CAME HOME.

I WAS TOO NERVOUS TO CALL YOU GUYS.

IT WAS PEOPLE LOOKING AT ME CUZ I WAS BLEEDING UP HERE AND I DIDN'T WANNA BE VULNERABLE.

SO I SAID, LET ME GO HOME.

MM-HMM.

YEAH.

WHAT WAS IT? UH, 61 10 PARK BEND DRIVE, RICHARDSON, TEXAS RICHARDSON.

75 81.

81.

OKAY.

GOT, SO MY GRANDDAUGHTER SAID, THAT'S JUST A STREET.

CAN I GET YOUR, I STOLE WHAT'S MY NEW PHONE? SO, MR. CHAIRMAN, THERE'S NOTHING ELSE THAT NEEDS TO BE SEEN ON THE VIDEO.

IT'S JUST THE OFFICER GETTING MS. KENNEDY'S PERSONAL INFORMATION, OF COURSE, WHICH WE CAN'T BROADCAST.

AND HIM JUST COMING BACK INTO THE ROOM AND GIVING HER HER POLICE REPORT NUMBER.

OKAY.

THANK YOU.

UH, BOARD MEMBERS, DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR EITHER, UH, MR. WILLIAMS OR FOR, UM, INTERNAL AFFAIRS? YEAH, THIS IS ALAN.

DISTRICT 10.

UM, THE ALLEGATION IS THAT IT WASN'T INVESTIGATED PROPERLY.

YEAH.

THAT'S THE ALLEGATION.

MM-HMM.

, DO WE KNOW WHAT THE INVESTIGATION, I MEAN, I DIDN'T SEE IN THE PACKET.

I DIDN'T SEE WHAT THE INVESTIGATIVE MATERIAL WAS, WHAT THEY CAME UP WITH.

LIKE, IF THE ALLEGATION IS THEY DIDN'T DO IT PROPERLY, DID WE? I DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING IN THE PACKET AS FAR AS LIKE WHAT THE ACTUAL INVESTIGATION WAS, WHAT THE INFORMATION WAS THAT HE PULLED UP, WHAT HE FOUND.

I DIDN'T SEE THAT IN THE PACKET WHEN I WENT ON THE, THE FILE SHARE.

SO I'M GONNA TURN IT OVER TO INTERNAL AFFAIRS TO ANSWER THOSE QUESTIONS.

MS. MCCLAR, THIS IS LIEUTENANT HOYER.

UH, THERE WAS MULTIPLE ENTRIES IN THE, UH, INVESTIGATIVE FILE BY THE DETECTIVE WHERE HE CORRESPONDED WITH MS. KENNEDY.

AND SO DID THE SUPERVISOR AND, AND, UH, THE CON HOW, HOW THE OUTCOME OF A CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION RESULTS.

WE DON'T INVESTIGATE.

JUST OUR RESPONSE WAS TO, SHE WAS SAYING IT WASN'T INVESTIGATED.

AND THE DETECTIVE AND THE SUPERVISOR NOTED IN THE CASE FILE THAT THAT HAD MADE CONTACT WITH HER AND THEY DID INVESTIGATE IT.

SO IF I COULD ADD JUST A LITTLE BIT THAT TO THAT, THIS IS MAJOR A.

SO REGARDING THE INFORMATION THAT WE DID HAVE, THE INDE INVESTIGATOR THAT WAS ASSIGNED, AS WELL AS THE SUPERVISOR THAT OVERSEES THE INVESTIGATOR THAT'S ASSIGNED TO THE, UM, INVESTIGATIVE DIVISION, THEY DID MAKE CONTACT WITH THE INDIVIDUAL.

UM, THERE ARE NOTES THAT ARE IN OUR RMS SYSTEM THAT CLEARLY STATED WHAT WAS GOING ON BACK AND FORTH.

I AM NOT GONNA BE ABLE TO PROVIDE ANY DETAILS ON EXACTLY WHAT DID OR DID NOT OCCUR WITH THAT.

BUT I D DID FIND THAT THE INVESTIGATOR DID DO SOME INVESTIGATING, HITTING WITH THIS CASE.

UM, ULTIMATELY THERE WAS NO PROSECUTION ON THIS.

UH, THERE WAS NO JAIL TIME FOR THE INDIVIDUAL.

UM, I, I BELIEVE THAT THAT'S NOT THE OUTCOME THAT OUR CITIZEN WAS WANTING.

BUT AS FAR AS THE COMPLAINT GOES THAT I D RECEIVED, THAT THERE WAS NOT AN INVESTIGATION DONE INTO THIS CRIMINAL CASE.

WE DID NOT FIND THAT THAT OCCURRED.

SO THEREFORE, WE DID NOT INVESTIGATE THIS ONE.

ONE OTHER QUESTION IS, YES, SIR.

IT SAYS THE COMPLAINTS AGAINST SENIOR CORPORAL POLLS MM-HMM.

, IS HE THE ONE WHO WENT OUT TO HER APARTMENT? NO, SIR.

THAT WOULD BE THE DETECTIVE.

SO AFTER A PATROL OFFICER RESPONDS TO THE LOCATION, THAT'S, I WANNA KNOW IF, IF SHE WAS MAKING THE COMPLAINT AGAINST THE RIGHT PERSON, SO TO SPEAK.

YES.

SO, UM, THAT'S ALL I REALLY NEEDED.

THANK YOU.

YES, SIR.

ANY, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FROM THE BOARD? NO.

ANYONE ON, ON THE WEBEX BACKS THAT HAS A QUESTION? OKAY.

IF THERE ARE NO FURTHER QUESTIONS, I WILL ASK FOR A MOTION FOR AN INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATION.

AGAIN, I WILL ASK FOR A MOTION FOR AN INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATION.

[00:30:01]

ONE LAST TIME.

I WILL ASK FOR A MOTION FOR AN INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATION.

THANK YOU.

WE WILL MOVE ON.

I SEE CHIEF GARCIA GARCIA'S HERE.

UM, WE'LL GO AHEAD AND ENTERTAIN CHIEF GARCIA AS HE TALKS TO US ABOUT, UH, DISCIPLINE OF D P D OFFICERS.

AGAIN, CHIEF, THANK YOU FOR COMING OUT AND, UM, VISITING WITH US THIS EVENING.

THANK YOU, CHAIR.

IT'S, UH, MY PLEASURE.

SO, AS WE JUST OPEN UP ONE OF THE DYNA, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I WANTED TO HAVE A DISCUSSION ABOUT IS, OBVIOUSLY DISCIPLINE IN THE POLICE DEPARTMENT, UH, IS OFTEN HAS BEEN MENTIONED.

I THINK THERE'S A FALSE NARRATIVE THAT POLICE DEPARTMENTS CAN'T DISCIPLINE THEMSELVES.

I THINK WE HAVE DONE, UH, A JOB OF DISCIPLINING THIS DEPARTMENT AND HOLDING OURSELVES ACCOUNTABLE, AS I'VE SAID, AND YOU'VE PROBABLY HEARD ME SAY MANY TIMES WHEN WE'RE RIGHT, WE'RE RIGHT, UH, REGARDLESS OF OUTSIDE NOISE, IF IT'S CORRECT.

UH, BUT WHEN WE'RE WRONG, WE'RE GONNA HOLD OURSELVES ACCOUNTABLE.

UH, THE, THE NUM WE'RE GONNA GIVE SOME EXAMPLES OF EACH LEVEL OF DISCIPLINE THAT WE GIVE THAT I'LL LET MA MAJOR ALANISE DO.

AND THEN I'LL GO OVER THE NUMBERS OF DISCIPLINE SINCE, UH, AND I'LL JUST START SINCE I'VE BEEN HERE, UH, TO DATE NOW, THE, THE STATS THAT I'LL GIVE YOU WILL BE THROUGH APRIL, UH, 17TH.

UM, WE COULDN'T UPDATE FOR SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WE'RE GOING THROUGH WITH OUR, WITH IT.

UM, ONE OF THE DYNAMICS THAT I'LL MAKE MENTION WHEN IT COMES TO DISCIPLINE, AND ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE'VE CHANGED SINCE, UH, THE, THIS NEW ADMINISTRATION'S TAKEN OVER IS ANYTHING THAT BEGINS WITH A CRIMINAL NEXUS.

REGARDLESS IF IT ENDS CRIMINALLY OR IF AT SOME POINT GETS ADJUDICATED OR SOMEONE SIGNS A LETTER OF NON-PROSECUTION, I STILL HEAR ALL OF THOSE.

UM, IT DOESN'T GO THROUGH A, THE REGULAR, UH, IT GOES THROUGH CHAINS, BUT THEN I HEAR IT SPECIFICALLY TO ENSURE THAT THERE'S CONSISTENCY, UH, IN THE POLICE DEPARTMENT, UH, PARTICULARLY ON SITUATIONS AND EVENTS THAT ARE HIGH LEVEL, UH, SUCH AS ANYTHING THAT BEGINS CRIMINALLY.

UH, WITH THAT, I WILL LET MAJOR ALLEN GO THROUGH SOME EXAMPLES.

THEN I'LL GIVE SOME, STA SOME STATISTICS AND NUMBERS OF HOW WE'VE HELD OURSELVES ACCOUNTABLE.

AND THEN WE WILL OPEN UP TO QUESTIONS.

GOOD EVENING.

SO REGARDING DISCIPLINE, WE HAVE SEVEN DIFFERENT LEVELS.

UM, I THINK WE MENTIONED THIS BEFORE, A FEW MEETINGS BACK.

UH, THE LOWEST LEVEL BEING AN ADVICE AND COUNSELING.

AN EXAMPLE WOULD BE SOMEONE OR AN OFFICER BEING LATE TO DETAIL, UH, MAY BE ARRIVING WITHOUT CALLING IN ON TIME.

THAT'S SOMETHING WHERE, AGAIN, THE SUPERVISOR WOULD HAVE TO HAVE THAT DISCUSSION WITH THEM AND DIVISIVE IN COUNSELING REGARDING THAT BEHAVIOR.

UH, NEXT WE WOULD HAVE A DOCUMENTED COUNSELING THAT, AGAIN, ONE LEVEL UP.

NOW, UH, YOU HAVE SOMETHING ALONG THE LINES OF MAYBE NOT ACCURATELY TAKING CARE OF A PRISONER'S PROPERTY, RIGHT? SO FAILING TO ACCOUNT FOR PRISONER'S PROPERTY COULD RESULT IN A DOCUMENTED COUNSELING SUPERVISOR'S REPORT.

THAT COULD BE ANYTHING FROM THE VEHICLE POLICY VIOLATION.

UM, EVEN THAT IS VERY CUMBERSOME.

SO AGAIN, THERE COULD BE ANY LITTLE LEVEL WITHIN THAT POLICY THAT COULD BE VIOLATED, THAT COULD RESULT IN A SUPERVISOR'S REPORT.

ONCE WE HIT THE WRITTEN REPRIMAND, WHICH IS THE NEXT ONE THAT WOULD NOW BE CONSIDERED FORMAL.

THE THREE THAT I MENTIONED BEFORE WOULD BE CONSIDERED SUMMARY DISCIPLINE.

SO FORMAL DISCIPLINE STARTS WITH A WRITTEN REPRIMAND, SOMETHING ALONG THE LINES OF INSUBORDINATION, FAILING TO FOLLOW A DIRECT ORDER, UH, THAT COULD RESULT IN A WRITTEN REPRIMAND.

SUSPENSION IS NEXT.

THOSE, UM, AN OFFICER INVOLVED IN A DISTURBANCE, UH, ESCALATING A DISTURBANCE PARTICIPATING IN ONE COULD RESULT IN A, UM, SUSPENSION.

AND A SUSPENSION CAN BE ANYWHERE FROM ONE TO 45 DAYS.

AGAIN, DEPENDING ON THE CASE, THE DEMOTION WOULD BE THE NEXT LEVEL.

ANYTHING ALONG THE LINES OF ADVERSE CONDUCT, A DEMOTION, UH, TERMINATION.

UM, ONE OF THE MOST COMMON ONES THAT WE SEE ARE DRIVING WHILE INTOXICATED.

I WOULD LIKE TO STATE THAT ANY DEMOTION OR TERMINATION THAT DOES TAKE PLACE, UH, THAT HAS TO COME THROUGH CHIEF GARCIA.

SO THOSE ARE THE, THE SEVEN DIFFERENT LEVELS.

I'D ALSO LIKE TO INFORM THE BOARD THAT EVERY CASE IS DIFFERENT.

WHEN THE COMMAND STAFF AND THE CHAIN OF COMMANDS MAKE THE RECOMMENDATION OR THEY ISSUE ANY DISCIPLINE, IT'S ALL DEPENDENT ON THE CASE AND THE DETAILS WITHIN THAT VIOLATION THAT THAT OFFICER COMMITTED.

OKAY.

WITH THAT, I'LL GO THROUGH SOME NUMBERS.

I'LL JUST PREFACE THIS BY SAYING, I'LL TELL YOU THIS.

UH, THERE'S NOT A POLICE CHIEF, MYSELF INCLUDED, THAT WAKES UP IN THE MORNING WANTING TO DISCIPLINE OFFICERS WANTING TO TERMINATE OFFICERS.

UH, BUT IT IS A RESPONSIBILITY OF ANY POLICE CHIEF TO ENSURE, UH, THE PRI COURT OF THE DEPARTMENT, UH, FOR THE MEMBERS THEMSELVES AS WELL AS THE COMMUNITY, UH, IS HELD TRUE.

UH, WITH THAT, UH, SINCE 2021, AGAIN, SINCE TO, UH, APRIL 17TH.

WHEN IT COMES TO SUMMARY DIFF SUMMARY DISCIPLINE INCIDENT TYPES, UH, WE'VE GIVEN OUT 166 ADVICE AND COUNSELINGS 175 DOCUMENTED COUNSELINGS 119 SUPERVISORS REPORT FOR A TOTAL OF 460 SUMMARY DISCIPLINE INCIDENT TYPES.

WHEN IT COMES TO DIVISION REFERRALS, WE'VE GIVEN 28 ADVICE AND COUNSELINGS, 27 DOCUMENTED COUNSELINGS, AND 10 SUPERVISORS

[00:35:01]

REPORTS FOR A TOTAL OF 65 DIVISION REFERRALS.

WHEN IT COMES TO INTERNAL AFFAIRS INVESTIGATIONS, WE'VE GIVEN NINE ADVICE AND COUNSELINGS 56 DOCUMENTED COUNSELINGS, 109 SUPERVISORS REPORTS 89 WRITTEN REPRIMANDS.

WE'VE SUSPENDED 113 MEMBERS.

WE HAVE DEMOTED TWO, AND WE HAVE TERMINATED 25 FOR A TOTAL OF 403, UH, DISCIPLINES OUT OF INTERNAL AFFAIRS.

UH, OF NOTE, UH, WE HAVE, OF THE, OF THE 25 TERMINATIONS, THREE OF THOSE HAVE BEEN FOR USE OF FORCE ALLEGATIONS.

WHEN WE LOOK AT 20 23, 1 OF THE THINGS WE WANTED TO DO IS WANTED TO GIVE KIND OF THE TOP ALLEGATION, THE, THE TOP REASONS THAT PEOPLE ARE GETTING PARTICULAR DISCIPLINE.

WHEN IT COMES TO SUMMARY DISCIPLINE, THE TOP FIVE ALLEGATIONS FOR SUMMARY DISCIPLINE HAVE BEEN VIOLATION OF OFF-DUTY EMPLOYMENT POLICY, FAILURE TO ACCOUNT FOR PRISONER'S, PROPERTY, BODY-WORN CAMERA, POLICY VIOLATIONS IN FAILURE TO COMPLETE REPORTS ON TIME AND VEHICLE PURSUIT POLICY WHEN IT COMES TO THE TOP FIVE ALLEGATIONS FOR DIVISION REFERRALS.

UH, FAILURE TO FOLLOW ESTABLISHED PROCEDURES, COURTESY AND UNPROFESSIONALISM, BODY-WORN CAMERA POLICY VIOLATIONS, ALLOWING WEAPON TO ENTER PRISONER PROCESSING AREA, OR IMPROPER OR NO ACTION.

WHEN IT COMES FOR THE TOP FIVE ALLEGATIONS FOR FORMAL OR INTERNAL AFFAIRS INVESTIGATIONS, IT'S BEEN CONDUCT DISCREDITING THE DEPARTMENT, FAILURE TO COMPLETE REPORTS ON TIME.

SEARCH OR SEARCHES ARE THAT ARE ILLEGAL OR IMPROPER.

AND FAILURE WILL COUNT FOR PRISONER'S, PROPERTY AND VIOLATION OF SICK LEAVE.

UM, WE WANTED TO GET YOU ALSO THE TOP THREE OR FIVE REASONS FOR TERMINATIONS, BUT AGAIN, BECAUSE OF THE IT ISSUES WE'RE HAVING, WE COULDN'T GO BACK IN THE SYSTEM TO DO THAT.

BUT WE DO HAVE 'EM.

OKAY.

WE DO.

GOT 'EM.

THANK YOU.

UM, SO THE TOP THREE ALLEGATIONS OF TERMINATION HAS BEEN CONDUCT DISCREDITING THE DEPARTMENT, DRIVING WHILE INTOXICATED AND INAPPROPRIATE USE OF FORCE.

THOSE HAVE BEEN THE TOP THREE SINCE 21, UH, FOR TERMINATIONS.

UH, AGAIN, WHAT'S THAT? WHEN YOU GOT HERE? WHEN I GOT HERE, .

SO, UH, AGAIN, UH, THIS IS SOMETHING THAT, UH, THE DEPARTMENT TAKES SERIOUSLY.

UH, WE COULD NOT BE CREDIBLE WITH OURSELVES, UH, WITH THE OFFICERS.

UH, AS WAS OFTEN SAID, NO ONE, UH, YOU KNOW, NO, NOBODY WANT, LIKES THE ACTIONS OF, UH, OF A POOR OFFICER MORE THAN A RIGHTEOUS OFFICER.

UH, WE OWE IT TO THE DEPARTMENT, TO OUR OFFICERS IN THE COMMUNITY.

UM, SO WITH THAT, UH, WE WILL OPEN UP THE QUESTIONS.

THANK YOU, CHIEF.

UM, ANY QUESTIONS FROM ANY OF THE BOARD MEMBERS? RIGHT, MR. MARSHALL? MM-HMM.

.

OH, YOU DON'T HAVE ANY? OH, SKINNER.

YEAH.

UH, CHIEF, I'M JUST WONDERING IF THE NUMBER THAT YOU HAVE GIVEN US, IF YOU'VE DONE ANY COMPARISON TO OTHER DISTRICTS, EXCUSE ME, CITIES OUR SIZE, TO SEE HOW WE COMPARE IT, OR IF THAT'S EVEN A VALID QUESTION TO ASK.

IT'S, IT'D BE VERY DIFFICULT TO COMPARE, UH, THE WAY INDIVIDUAL DEPARTMENTS HOLD THEMSELVES ACCOUNTABLE.

UM, I, I DON'T HAVE THOSE COMPARISONS, BUT I, BUT I THINK EVEN IF, EVEN IF WE HAD NUMBERS FROM OTHER ORGANIZATIONS AS THEY AS TO HOW THEY DO DISCIPLINE, UH, IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO COMPARE.

UH, I'LL TELL YOU, MY STANDARD FOR DISCIPLINE IS VERY CLEAR.

UH, IT'S NUMBER ONE, UH, TO CHANGE BEHAVIOR.

UH, AND THE SECOND PRONG IS TO SET A CULTURE FOR THE ORGANIZATION.

WELL, LET ME ASK IT ANOTHER WAY.

DO YOU FEEL THAT YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH YOUR OFFICERS? OR DOES THIS FEEL LIKE WHAT YOU WOULD EXPECT IN ANY ORGANIZATION OF YOUR SIZE? I FEEL IT'S WHAT WE EXPECTED OF AN ORGANIZATION OF OUR SIZE.

THERE'S NO QUESTION.

I MEAN, WE HAVE DONE, UH, AS YOU MAY OR WE NOT KNOW, I KNOW NEXT MONTH WE'RE GONNA GO OVER OUR USE OF FORCE REPORTS.

BUT WE'VE, WE'VE, WE'VE AUDITED OURSELVES.

WE'VE LOOKED AT OURSELVES TO LOOK AT THE CULTURE ISSUES, UH, THAT EXPERTS HAVE SAID, OUR, OUR, THAT THERE IS NO PATTERN FOR THAT.

UH, WHEN IT COMES TO THIS, WE DEAL WITH HUMAN WITH, DEAL WITH HUMAN BEINGS, AND WE HIRE FROM THE HUMAN RACE AND INDIVIDUALS ARE GONNA MAKE MISTAKES.

UH, AS AGAIN, AS I SAID, UH, I DON'T WAKE UP IN THE MORNING.

NO ONE DOES WANTING TO DISCIPLINE, BUT WE NEED TO SET THE STANDARD.

UH, BUT WE DO MAKE MISTAKES.

UH, WE ARE, UH, UH, WE'RE A PROFESSION, UH, MADE OUT, UH, IMPERFECT PROFESSION.

UH, AND WE KNOW WE'RE GONNA MAKE MISTAKES.

AND THE QUESTION, TO ME, I THINK WHAT'S IMPORTANT NOTE IS THAT IT'S NOT A MATTER OF IF, WHEN YOU MAKE, WHEN YOU MAKE A MISTAKE, UH, BUT WHAT ACTIONS DO YOU TAKE ONCE A MISTAKE IS MADE? I THINK IT'S EQUALLY IMPORTANT THAT NOT ONLY WHEN WE'RE WRONG, WE HOLD OURSELVES ACCOUNTABLE, UH, BUT WHEN WE'RE RIGHT, UH, WE MAKE SURE THAT WE SUPPORT OUR MEN AND WOMEN.

AND WE'RE LOUD, WE'RE EQUALLY AS LOUD WHEN WE'RE RIGHT AS WHEN WE'RE WRONG.

UH, AND I KNOW THESE NUMBERS OFFICE DON'T COME OUT.

I KNOW IN THE MEDIA IT'LL COME OUT WHEN TERMINATIONS THINGS OF THAT NATURE.

BUT I THINK AS A WHOLE, AND ONE THING THAT WE WOULD LIKE TO START DOING WITH THE BOARD IS DO MORE PERIODIC UPDATES ON THESE.

SO YOU YOURSELVES ARE AWARE OF HOW WE ARE HOLDING OURSELVES ACCOUNTABLE.

AND SO THAT YOU COULD ALSO HELP US AS YOU GO OUT INTO YOUR COMMUNITIES TO ENSURE THAT WE'RE DOING THE BEST WE POSSIBLY CAN.

ARE THERE THINGS THAT WE'RE GONNA MISS? ABSOLUTELY.

AND THIS IS WHERE THE BOARD

[00:40:01]

COMES IN.

UH, BUT I THINK AS A POLICE DEPARTMENT AND THE NOTION THAT DEPARTMENTS CAN'T POLICE THEMSELVES, UM, I JUST, I, I THINK THAT'S FALSE FROM MY PERSPECTIVE.

UH, WE'RE HERE TO HELP YOU IN ANYTHING WE CAN DO, LET US KNOW.

THANK YOU.

UH, MR. SMITH, MR. HAND.

THANK YOU, CHAIR.

SHOULD I SAY, UH, I WAS TRYING TO GET ON, SHOULD I SAY I'M PRESENT FOR THE RECORD? I WAS LATE TO JOIN.

OH, OKAY.

FOR ATTENDANCE PURPOSES.

UM, I, MY QUESTION, UH, FIRST OF ALL, UH, CHIEF AND MAJOR, THANK YOU SO MUCH, UH, FOR, YOU KNOW, COMING AND SHARING THESE DETAILS WITH US.

MY QUESTION IS FIRST, IS THOSE THAT DATA IS FOR THE ENTIRE, UH, DEPARTMENT THAT'S JUST, UM, ALL THE, UH, DISCIPLINE, UH, ACTIONS THAT YOU'VE TAKEN OVER THOSE YEARS, CORRECT? THAT'S CORRECT.

YES, SIR.

I WAS WONDERING, DO YOU GUYS HAVE THE DATA BROKEN OUT BASED ON, OR OTHER DATA BROKEN OUT BASED ON, UH, REFERRALS FROM US, FROM THE COMMUNITY POLICE OVERSIGHT BOARD, UH, WHAT THE DEPARTMENT'S ACTION HAS BEEN ON THOSE? SO NOT SPECIFICALLY FROM THE BOARD, BUT IT WOULD BE RELATED FROM AN EXTERNAL COMPLAINT.

SO WE MAY RECEIVE AN EXTERNAL COMPLAINT IN OUR OFFICE VERSUS IN MS. MCCRAY'S OFFICE, BUT WE WILL BE ABLE TO PROVIDE THAT AT A LATER DATE WHERE IT IS BROKEN UP ON EXTERNAL VERSUS WHAT WE WOULD CALL INTERNAL SOMETHING THAT WE FOUND IN-HOUSE.

CERTAINLY, YOU KNOW, THIS IS THE, THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT WE'VE PRESENTED IN THIS FASHION.

SO CERTAINLY WE'LL TAKE SOME INPUT.

I MEAN, THIS IS FOR YOU, UH, REALLY, UH, FOR THE INFORMATION AND TO KIND OF SHARE WHAT WE ARE DOING AS A DEPARTMENT.

SO IF THERE'S WAYS THAT WE CAN BETTER THIS PRESENTATION IN THE FUTURE, WE CERTAINLY WILL TAKE THAT INPUT.

YES.

THANK YOU.

I APPRECIATE THAT.

I, I DO THINK THE COMMUNITY WOULD LIKE TO ALSO SEE, YOU KNOW, OUR EFFECTIVENESS, THE THINGS THAT WE'RE REVIEWING AND THAT, UM, I KNOW DIRECTOR MCCLEARY AND OUR CHAIR ARE SENDING TO YOU FOR, YOU KNOW, UH, SUGGESTIONS TO UNDERSTAND WHAT ACTIONS HAVE BEEN TAKEN BASED ON THOSE REFERRALS THAT ARE MADE FROM THIS BOARD.

THANK YOU.

ANY, ANYONE ELSE WITH A QUESTION FOR CHIEF GARCIA? ANYONE ON WEBEX? ALL RIGHT.

WELL, UH, CHIEF, YOU KNOW, UH, YOU AND I, WE'VE TALKED AND I TOLD YOU, UM, THAT IT'S IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO TALK ABOUT THESE NUMBERS WITH US.

CAUSE OF THE FACT THAT THE ONLY TIME, YOU KNOW, WE HEAR ABOUT OFFICER DISCIPLINES, IT'S SOMETHING THAT'S EGREGIOUS IN THE MEDIA AND, YOU KNOW, IF THE INFORMATION VACUUM, A RUMOR OR, OR, OR MISINFORMATION WILL TAKE OVER.

AND SO, THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS INFORMATION WITH US THIS EVENING.

NO, I APPRECIATE IT.

AGAIN, IN THE FUTURE, WE'LL, UH, WE'LL BE, UH, WE'LL BE DOING THIS PERIODICALLY AGAIN TO KEEP EVERYONE UP TO SPEED ON WHAT WE'RE DOING.

UH, AND I APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY.

THANK YOU.

ALRIGHT, THANK YOU, CHIEF.

SO THERE WAS NO REASON FOR, UH, FOR AN ADDITIONAL INVESTIGATION INTO THE COMPLAINT.

AM I CORRECT? YES, SIR.

ON THE, ON THE NEXT, UH, THESE THREE CASES ARE RELATED.

UM, DETECTIVES ALSO WENT TO THE OFFENSE LOCATION THAT MS. STALLS HAD ON THE, UH, THAT SHE SAID IT HAD OCCURRED AT AND MET WITH WITNESSES AND NO ONE KNEW, UH, MS. SAS.

AFTER REVIEW OF THE INFORMATION PROVIDED, WE ARE UNABLE TO ESTABLISH A VIOLATION OF DEPARTMENTAL POLICIES OR PROCEDURES.

AS A RESULT, IT IS DETERMINED, NO INVESTIGATION WARRANTED.

BACK TO YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN.

A ANY QUESTIONS FROM THE BOARD ON THIS? UH, I JUST HAVE ONE, ONE QUESTION TO INTERNAL AFFAIRS.

WAS THERE A SEPARATE INVESTIGATION FOR CASE NUMBER THREE AS OPPOSED TO CASE NUMBER TWO? OR WAS THERE ONE INVESTIGATION AS TO BOTH? IT WAS ONE INTO BOTH.

AND WE RELATED THAT ORIGINAL INVEST RELATED THAT ORIGINAL INVESTIGATION INTO THE OTHER TWO THAT WE'RE, UH, TALKING ABOUT NOW.

OKAY.

SO, SO I I I HAVE A QUESTION.

SO THE, THE WE'RE SAYING THAT THE APARTMENT THAT WHERE THIS, THIS OFFENSE HAPPENED ON , THIS MAINTENANCE EMPLOYEE DOESN'T EXIST.

THAT, THAT THAT'S WHAT THE INVESTIGATION IS SAYING.

WAS THERE ANYONE WHO, WHO COULD HAVE MET THE DESCRIPTION OF THAT MAINTENANCE EMPLOYEE? ? I UNDERSTAND THE INTERNAL AFFAIRS.

WE DIDN'T DO THE CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION.

THIS, THESE ARE THE NOTES FROM THE, UH, RIGHT.

I I'M ASKING ON THE, THE, UH, FOR, IN, IN THAT INVESTIGATION, WAS THERE, DID THEY EVEN CHECK TO SEE IF THERE'S SOMEONE THAT MET THE DES DESCRIPTION, OR DID THEY JUST LOOK FOR SOMEONE NAMED ALEX? AND, AND THAT WAS THE, THE END OF THE INVESTIGATION.

I'M NOT CERTAIN ABOUT LOOKING FOR, UH, UH, SOMEBODY THAT MET THE DESCRIPTION ON, I'M NOT CERTAIN ABOUT THAT.

SO HOW, HOW DETAILED CAN YOU GO INTO THE NOTES OF THAT INVESTIGATION? NOT, NOT REALLY IN DEPTH.

WE CAN'T GO IN DEPTH WITH IT.

I CAN GIVE YOU THE JOURNAL OVERVIEW OF IT, BUT, UM, I THINK THAT'S, UH, ABOUT AS MUCH AS WE CAN GO INTO IT.

I KNOW I'VE, I'VE READ THE, THE, THE CASE NOTES.

CAN YOU JUST GIVE US A, THE, THE, A GENERAL OVERVIEW OF IT? SURE.

UM, MS. SALS SAID AN OFFENSE OCCURRED AT A SPECIFIC LOCATION.

MR. WILLIAMS TOUCHED ON THAT LOCATION.

MM-HMM.

, UM, ASSIGNED.

THE OFFICER THAT TOOK THE REPORT, WENT THERE WITH MS. SALS, GATHERED ALL THE INFORMATION FROM HER IN PERSON.

UM, THAT CASE WAS ASSIGNED TO A, UM, SALS DETECTIVE.

THAT DETECTIVE WENT TO THEIR LOCATION THAT MS. SAS SAID IT OCCURRED.

AND, UM, THE FIRST LOCATION DID NOT EXIST.

UM, AND THEN THE SECOND LOCATION, UM, AS MR. WILLIAMS STATED, UM, MS. SALS NEVER WAS ON THE LEASE OR NEVER WAS, UH, PERSON THAT LIVED THERE.

AND, UM, THE DETECTIVE ALSO INQUIRED ABOUT THE MAN SPECIFICALLY.
