Ese incendio fue causado por las líneas eléctricas de PG&E en medio de fuertes vientos y condiciones de sequía. Para protegerse contra nuevos incendios forestales igualmente devastadores y nuevas responsabilidades, en 2019 PG&E comenzó a realizar cortes de energía preventivos cuando las condiciones son excepcionalmente peligrosas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>También en 2019, la Comisión de Servicios Públicos de California (o CPUC, por sus siglas en inglés) aprobó normas sobre cómo \u003ca href=\"https://docs.cpuc.ca.gov/PublishedDocs/Published/G000/M339/K524/339524880.PDF\">las principales empresas de servicios públicos del estado deben cortar la energía de forma preventiva\u003c/a> (PDF) en momentos de alto peligro de incendio. Sin embargo, algunas empresas de servicios públicos, como San Diego Gas and Electric, habían estado cortando la energía para ayudar a prevenir incendios desde hace años.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>¿En qué se diferencian los cortes de los apagones rotativos?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>A veces, los californianos también se quedan sin electricidad debido a la sobrecarga del sistema. El \u003ca href=\"https://www.caiso.com/\">Operador del Sistema Independiente de California\u003c/a> (o ISO, por sus siglas en inglés) (enlace sólo en inglés) gestiona el delicado equilibrio entre la oferta y la demanda de energía en la red eléctrica del estado y puede dictar órdenes a las compañías eléctricas para que corten el suministro a los clientes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Es un gran sistema interconectado”, explica John Phipps, director de operaciones de California ISO. “La energía que se genera en una central puede alimentar hogares completamente en el otro extremo del estado”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Por ejemplo, dijo Phipps,” si Diablo Canyon tuviera problemas en el norte de California, eso podría afectar a San Diego”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Una versión de esta guía se publicó por primera vez el 8 de septiembre de 2020.

We stand together on what counts when it counts.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fife credited Muslim and Jewish leaders with helping write the resolution. The resolution cited the city’s official motto, “Love Life” and vowed council support of \u003ca href=\"https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/118/hres786\">U.S. House Resolution 786\u003c/a>, which calls for “an immediate de-escalation and cease-fire in Israel and occupied Palestine.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dan Kalb, District 1 Councilmember, asked for amendments, but his motion failed. His amendments would have included condemning Hamas for the attack on Oct. 7, murdering more than 1,200 people and holding over 200 people hostage.

I deeply believe that the resolution that is in front of us today does that work. I think it is mild in response to what is happening in the Middle East right now. It is a moderate approach to the atrocities that are occurring.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During public comment, some insisted the resolution be amended to include language condemning Hamas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There will be no Palestinian-Israeli peace with [Hamas] in power and that’s why this resolution must be amended to acknowledge the atrocities of Hamas and include its removal from power,” said Tye Gregory, CEO of the Jewish Community Relations Council Bay Area, which has \u003ca href=\"https://jcrcbayarea.salsalabs.org/telloaklandnohamas/index.html\">previously called for such an amendment\u003c/a>. Gregory identified himself as a “proud gay Jewish Zionist” who believes in a two-state solution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland resident Naomi Katz said she worries failing to condemn Hamas would lead to a rise in antisemitism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A resolution that does not clearly state in no uncertain terms that Hamas is a terror organization that needs to be eradicated… not only invites antisemitism into our city, it fans the flames of anti-Semitism that already exists,” Katz said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many other public commenters, however, at least half a dozen of whom identified themselves as Jewish, said they fully support the resolution as it stands and pushed for its passage without amendment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m a descendant of people who have survived genocide, displacement, ethnic cleansing and persecution because of who they are,” said Oakland resident Elizabeth Diamond. “I refuse to be silent. Never again means never again for anyone, including Palestinians. I ask the City Council to speak up by passing this resolution without amendment. Never again is now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m an anti-Zionist Jew and I’ve lived here 12 years… I am the granddaughter of two German Jewish Holocaust survivors and I call for a ceasefire now,” said a resident who identified themselves as Gianni. “My grandfather escaped the Nazis and then returned to Germany as an American soldier and helped liberate concentration camps. And he saw firsthand what violence you can do to other people, when you dehumanize them. The Jewish people are not safer by denying life and sovereignty to Palestinians… Pass the resolution without amendment please.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As a Jewish Oakland resident I’ve been horrified day after day at the scale of murder and destruction wrought by Israel’s U.S.-funded bombs,” said Lee Goodman. “We have an important role to play in creating the political pressure at the national level to stop U.S. tax dollars from funding mass murder… This amendment to condemn Hamas is a distraction and deflection.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nadal, a commenter who identified himself as Palestinian, said he worries about increasing Islamophobia and urged the Council to pass the resolution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Oakland’s Arab and Muslim communities have never been so vulnerable and we need you now to protect us,” he said. “We urge you to reject any amendments made by extremists and racists calling for increased violence and warfare… please stand strong and stand up for humanity.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One commenter, Samira, who identified herself as a Palestinian American “with family still living in Palestine,” drew a direct line between Oakland’s history of being at the forefront of the fight for racial justice and the plight of Palestinians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Some of my family… asked about Oakland because they had heard about the Black Panther Party,” she said. “And they were really excited at the potential that a city who had such a historic, revolutionary force behind them … would be here today to stand in solidarity with Palestine. I know it might be hard to think about how Oakland could connect to Palestine. but it’s important to remember that all of these liberations are united… and for the ability to just be a person in a place without getting massacred by a violent police force.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Original story:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nThe Oakland City Council will consider adopting a \u003ca href=\"https://oakland.legistar.com/LegislationDetail.aspx?ID=6426870&GUID=0B829E4E-DACD-4245-B5FA-3365F4E66CEB&Options=&Search=\">resolution\u003c/a> Monday night calling on Congress to demand a cease-fire in \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/gaza/\">Gaza\u003c/a> and the release of all hostages, both Jewish and Palestinian.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a time for diplomatic solutions, not military might, because the only pathway to lasting peace and justice will require addressing the root causes of the crisis,” wrote Councilmember Carroll Fife, who introduced the resolution, \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/Cz66ZkLya_l/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\">in an Instagram post\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fife, and the “Oakland-wide Muslim and Jewish leaders” she credited with writing the resolution, cite the city’s official motto, “Love Life,” and want the council to support \u003ca href=\"https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/118/hres786\">U.S. House Resolution 786\u003c/a>, which calls for “an immediate de-escalation and cease-fire in Israel and occupied Palestine.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='Related Coverage' tag='gaza']The Oakland proposal comes as a temporary truce between Israel and Hamas has allowed the freeing of hostages, as well as some desperately needed humanitarian aid, to flow into the Gaza Strip, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2023/11/27/1215330196/israel-and-hamas-hint-at-extending-truce-as-more-captives-are-slated-to-be-freed\">according to reporting from NPR\u003c/a>. The more than 2 million Palestinians who live in Gaza have faced dire shortages of food, water, medical supplies and fuel amid Israel’s ongoing siege of the territory. Israel’s heavy bombardment and invasion of Gaza began after Hamas militants killed more than 1,200 people and kidnapped approximately 240 others in a cross-border attack into Southern Israel on Oct. 7.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Israel’s attacks on Gaza have now killed more than 13,000 people, according to Gaza health officials.

On Nov. 16, hundreds of demonstrators \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11967536/protesters-calling-for-gaza-ceasefire-block-bay-bridges-westbound-lanes\">shut down the Bay Bridge for hours\u003c/a> during the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Summit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fife’s resolution also calls for the unrestricted entry of aid into Gaza, the restoration of critical supplies in Gaza and the respect for international law. If passed, the Oakland resolution would also condemn “the recent rise of Antisemitic, Islamophobic, racist, homophobic, and xenophobic attacks in our city and across the nation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland is not the first Bay Area city to consider a resolution; the Richmond City Council \u003ca href=\"https://www.ci.richmond.ca.us/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=2357\">approved a similar resolution last month\u003c/a>, calling Israel’s actions “ethnic cleansing” and “collective punishment.” The Oakland resolution does not mention either but does recognize the loss of life on both sides of the conflict while also noting that “over 1.5 million Palestinians” still face “displacement, homelessness, and starvation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other city councilmembers have also voiced their support for a cease-fire. On Nov. 13, council president Nikki Fortunato Bas \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/nikki4oakland/status/1724170722229289300?s=20\">issued a statement\u003c/a> addressed to President Joe Biden and congressional leaders asking them to call for a cease-fire, saying she “mourns every life lost” and that the loss of life on both sides of the conflict is “unforgivable and inhumane.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Councilmember Dan Kalb, on the other hand, has criticized how other local leaders and organizations have talked about the war. He \u003ca href=\"https://oaklandside.org/2023/11/22/oakland-is-next-to-consider-a-gaza-ceasefire-resolution/\">told The Oaklandside\u003c/a> that anything in the resolution delegitimizing Israel’s existence or making “false accusations” would be unacceptable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The group Jewish Community Relations Council Bay Area \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/SFJCRC/status/1727064232611520795\">wrote in a social media post\u003c/a>, ”We are dismayed by the resolution’s silence.

I deeply believe that the resolution that is in front of us today does that work. I think it is mild in response to what is happening in the Middle East right now. It is a moderate approach to the atrocities that are occurring.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During public comment, some insisted the resolution be amended to include language condemning Hamas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There will be no Palestinian-Israeli peace with [Hamas] in power and that’s why this resolution must be amended to acknowledge the atrocities of Hamas and include its removal from power,” said Tye Gregory, CEO of the Jewish Community Relations Council Bay Area, which has \u003ca href=\"https://jcrcbayarea.salsalabs.org/telloaklandnohamas/index.html\">previously called for such an amendment\u003c/a>. Gregory identified himself as a “proud gay Jewish Zionist” who believes in a two-state solution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland resident Naomi Katz said she worries failing to condemn Hamas would lead to a rise in antisemitism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A resolution that does not clearly state in no uncertain terms that Hamas is a terror organization that needs to be eradicated… not only invites antisemitism into our city, it fans the flames of anti-Semitism that already exists,” Katz said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many other public commenters, however, at least half a dozen of whom identified themselves as Jewish, said they fully support the resolution as it stands and pushed for its passage without amendment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m a descendant of people who have survived genocide, displacement, ethnic cleansing and persecution because of who they are,” said Oakland resident Elizabeth Diamond. “I refuse to be silent. Never again means never again for anyone, including Palestinians. I ask the City Council to speak up by passing this resolution without amendment. Never again is now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m an anti-Zionist Jew and I’ve lived here 12 years… I am the granddaughter of two German Jewish Holocaust survivors and I call for a ceasefire now,” said a resident who identified themselves as Gianni. “My grandfather escaped the Nazis and then returned to Germany as an American soldier and helped liberate concentration camps. And he saw firsthand what violence you can do to other people, when you dehumanize them. The Jewish people are not safer by denying life and sovereignty to Palestinians… Pass the resolution without amendment please.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As a Jewish Oakland resident I’ve been horrified day after day at the scale of murder and destruction wrought by Israel’s U.S.-funded bombs,” said Lee Goodman. “We have an important role to play in creating the political pressure at the national level to stop U.S. tax dollars from funding mass murder… This amendment to condemn Hamas is a distraction and deflection.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nadal, a commenter who identified himself as Palestinian, said he worries about increasing Islamophobia and urged the Council to pass the resolution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Oakland’s Arab and Muslim communities have never been so vulnerable and we need you now to protect us,” he said. “We urge you to reject any amendments made by extremists and racists calling for increased violence and warfare… please stand strong and stand up for humanity.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One commenter, Samira, who identified herself as a Palestinian American “with family still living in Palestine,” drew a direct line between Oakland’s history of being at the forefront of the fight for racial justice and the plight of Palestinians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Some of my family… asked about Oakland because they had heard about the Black Panther Party,” she said. “And they were really excited at the potential that a city who had such a historic, revolutionary force behind them … would be here today to stand in solidarity with Palestine. I know it might be hard to think about how Oakland could connect to Palestine. but it’s important to remember that all of these liberations are united… and for the ability to just be a person in a place without getting massacred by a violent police force.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Original story:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nThe Oakland City Council will consider adopting a \u003ca href=\"https://oakland.legistar.com/LegislationDetail.aspx?ID=6426870&GUID=0B829E4E-DACD-4245-B5FA-3365F4E66CEB&Options=&Search=\">resolution\u003c/a> Monday night calling on Congress to demand a cease-fire in \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/gaza/\">Gaza\u003c/a> and the release of all hostages, both Jewish and Palestinian.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a time for diplomatic solutions, not military might, because the only pathway to lasting peace and justice will require addressing the root causes of the crisis,” wrote Councilmember Carroll Fife, who introduced the resolution, \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/Cz66ZkLya_l/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\">in an Instagram post\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fife, and the “Oakland-wide Muslim and Jewish leaders” she credited with writing the resolution, cite the city’s official motto, “Love Life,” and want the council to support \u003ca href=\"https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/118/hres786\">U.S. House Resolution 786\u003c/a>, which calls for “an immediate de-escalation and cease-fire in Israel and occupied Palestine.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The more than 2 million Palestinians who live in Gaza have faced dire shortages of food, water, medical supplies and fuel amid Israel’s ongoing siege of the territory. Israel’s heavy bombardment and invasion of Gaza began after Hamas militants killed more than 1,200 people and kidnapped approximately 240 others in a cross-border attack into Southern Israel on Oct. 7.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Israel’s attacks on Gaza have now killed more than 13,000 people, according to Gaza health officials. Among the dead are more than 5,350 children, \u003ca href=\"https://www.unicef.org/press-releases/gazas-children-running-out-time-water-shortages-spark-disease-alarm\">according to UNICEF\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Protesters at numerous Oakland demonstrations in recent weeks have demanded a cease-fire in Gaza and an end to U.S. military aid to Israel, including actions at an Oakland City Council meeting, \u003ca href=\"https://oaklandside.org/2023/11/03/protest-port-of-oakland-gaza-ceasefire/\">at the Port of Oakland\u003c/a>, and the \u003ca href=\"https://oaklandside.org/2023/11/14/jewish-protest-oakland-ceasefire-gaza/\">federal building in downtown Oakland\u003c/a>.

If passed, the Oakland resolution would also condemn “the recent rise of Antisemitic, Islamophobic, racist, homophobic, and xenophobic attacks in our city and across the nation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland is not the first Bay Area city to consider a resolution; the Richmond City Council \u003ca href=\"https://www.ci.richmond.ca.us/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=2357\">approved a similar resolution last month\u003c/a>, calling Israel’s actions “ethnic cleansing” and “collective punishment.” The Oakland resolution does not mention either but does recognize the loss of life on both sides of the conflict while also noting that “over 1.5 million Palestinians” still face “displacement, homelessness, and starvation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other city councilmembers have also voiced their support for a cease-fire. On Nov. 13, council president Nikki Fortunato Bas \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/nikki4oakland/status/1724170722229289300?s=20\">issued a statement\u003c/a> addressed to President Joe Biden and congressional leaders asking them to call for a cease-fire, saying she “mourns every life lost” and that the loss of life on both sides of the conflict is “unforgivable and inhumane.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Councilmember Dan Kalb, on the other hand, has criticized how other local leaders and organizations have talked about the war. He \u003ca href=\"https://oaklandside.org/2023/11/22/oakland-is-next-to-consider-a-gaza-ceasefire-resolution/\">told The Oaklandside\u003c/a> that anything in the resolution delegitimizing Israel’s existence or making “false accusations” would be unacceptable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The group Jewish Community Relations Council Bay Area \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/SFJCRC/status/1727064232611520795\">wrote in a social media post\u003c/a>, ”We are dismayed by the resolution’s silence.

"content": "\u003cp>California Attorney General Rob Bonta is demanding major reforms of the beleaguered Vallejo Police Department, which has been subject to intense criticism in recent years over its high rate of police killings and very\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11919385/in-vallejo-investigations-of-police-take-so-long-officers-kill-again-before-reviews-are-done\"> slow, and sometimes incomplete, investigations of those incidents.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta’s Department of Justice on Monday filed a consent decree, which lays out the court-ordered police reforms the city of Vallejo must implement over the next five years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At its core, this new agreement is about building and strengthening trust between the Vallejo Police Department and the community it serves,” Bonta said at a press conference on Monday at Vallejo City Hall. “It’s about correcting injustices and enhancing public safety for all people in Vallejo.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The consent decree comes more than three years after the state DOJ \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11823146/state-attorney-general-to-review-and-reform-vallejo-police-department-following-fatal-shooting\">initiated a collaborative effort \u003c/a>with the city to “review and reform” policing practices, arguing that “the number and nature of [police killings] raised concerns among members of the community.” Then-Attorney General Xavier Becerra announced that action in June 2020, just days after the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/sean-monterrosa\">high-profile police killing of Sean Monterrosa\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11826613]As part of its contract with the state, the city agreed to implement 45 reforms of the department. 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",

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>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

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>",
