In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

And according to a \u003ca href=\"https://files.hudexchange.info/resources/documents/2019-AHAR-Part-1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">new report \u003c/a>by the Department of Housing and Urban Development, California’s homeless population accounts for 53% of all unsheltered people in the country. Overall, the state has more than 150,000 people experiencing homelessness, according to the report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Given the growing crisis, Gov. Gavin Newsom recently proposed more than $1.4 billion in his \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11795344/newsom-zeroes-in-on-education-gaps-homelessness-and-wildfires-in-state-budget\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">new budget \u003c/a>for expanded state and local efforts on immediate housing and services.

The first-term Democrat has also ordered state agencies to do more to help find temporary sites — including decommissioned hospitals or unused land — for the state’s expanding homeless encampments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Across the state, residents are demanding robust coordinated action on what has now become a public health crisis. There are rising concerns about health and safety problems inside the encampments, including \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/CDPH%20Document%20Library/Immunization/2016-18CAOutbreakAssociatedDrugUseHomelessness.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">disease\u003c/a>, open drug use, violence, crime and fire risks.

It’s very hard,” he says of life among broken pallets and ripped tarps. “It’s a struggle for anybody to keep warm and keep your heart and head light and strong. I’m doing the best I can.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gibson, who has lived here for nearly a year, says the camp has a haphazard sense of community. People watch out for each other. But he concedes the camp has serious problems with garbage, vermin, inadequate toilets and some drug use.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>County and city agencies have tried to offer some services, including adding portable toilets and trash control. But camp residents say it’s not enough.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you don’t have someone taking out the trash, it’s gonna pile up,” Gibson says. “Some people are elderly and can’t really do a lot on their own. Some are young people that are very inexperienced with life. I try to a be a guiding light.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a nearby tent, an older woman pops her head out shouting obscenities at no one in particular.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People need to open up their eyes and realize they could end up like this,” Gibson says. “A lot of people are one [pay]check away. Show some humanity.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Soon a pickup truck pulls up with donations. Time to “cowboy up,” Gibson says, as he moves to help unload used warm clothes from a local resident.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I drive by every morning and today I was just heartbroken,” says commuter Vania Supulveda. “My daughter complains, ‘Oh, it’s so cold out today’ when we see this. And we go back home to a nice warm home. It’s depressing. I grew up in Brazil, in a Third World country, and I’ve never seen something like this so close to me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Exploring Solutions\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The Board of Supervisors will vote Tuesday on the purchase of three large homes — two in central Santa Rosa and one in Cotati — that would provide housing for some of the people living on the trail. If approved, Hopkins told KQED’s Forum that the homes could be operational as early as next month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.hcd.ca.gov/grants-funding/active-funding/nplh.shtml\">“No Place Like Home” program \u003c/a>would fund the purchase of the three homes. Hopkins hopes an additional two homes will be purchased eventually, totaling a cost of $6 million that includes furnishings and supportive services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is actually a model that … already is actually working in a lot of areas in Sonoma County,” Hopkins told Forum. “They have been very, very successful at getting people off the street and into housing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some residents in similar models have even transitioned into renting their own apartments, Hopkins said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s always the goal, right? Is to get people back fully on their feet and able to be supporting themselves in a type of housing that is acceptable. What’s happening right now on the Joe Rodota Trail, we know is completely unacceptable,” Hopkins told Forum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Additionally, Hopkins is exploring an outdoor shelter option that would still allow people to camp, but would provide a navigation trailer with supportive services. It would equip people with “fundamental human needs,” such as restrooms, electricity, water and, ideally, shower and laundry facilities, Hopkins said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you talk about the encampment along the Joe Rodota Trail, it is actually very difficult to service because it’s actually spread out over about a mile and a half of linear trail,” Hopkins said. “So it’s tough for service workers to actually go out there … and actually provide people with a plan to get them off the trail and into housing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Public Backlash in Sonoma County\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>“It just showcases the failure of government at all levels to meaningfully have a safety net for human beings,” Hopkins said. “There’s just no room for error now, there’s no safety net.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Thursday, Sonoma County’s chief homelessness official, Geoffrey Ross, announced his resignation. The Board of Supervisors will vote Tuesday to confirm Barbie Robinson, the county health services director, as interim executive director of the Community Development Commission.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Robinson has drawn praise from supervisors, including Hopkins, for stepping into a leadership position and working alongside Ross to craft a plan to allocate \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11792903/sonoma-county-approves-12-million-urgent-plan-for-homeless\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">$12 million in emergency funds\u003c/a> for the encampment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hopkins has also helped lead efforts to find solutions for the camp, including working on the emergency funding plan and setting up an emergency \u003ca href=\"https://abc7news.com/society/sonoma-co-opens-eoc-for-first-time-in-response-to-homeless-crisis/5823059/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">operations center\u003c/a> to better coordinate responses to a complex problem with no easy fixes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the first-term politician is facing blowback over the camp. A handful of angry constituents started \u003ca href=\"https://www.pressdemocrat.com/news/10539186-181/recall-effort-targets-sonoma-county?sba=AAS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">an effort to recall Hopkins\u003c/a>, even though she faces an election in March. Their petition accuses Hopkins of failing to act — “her watch, her failure” — and calls the homeless encampment a “public cesspool” that’s undermining businesses, homes and quality of life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The problem cuts across complex issues, including rising housing costs and skyrocketing rents, stagnant wages, poverty, addiction and mental health treatment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Complicating attempts to find a solution in Sonoma is \u003ca href=\"https://sonomacounty.ca.gov/CAO/Agreement-with-Homeless-Advocates-on-Preliminary-Injunction/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a local injunction\u003c/a> that says the county can’t arrest or fine its way out of the crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/12/13/787861253/how-boises-fight-over-homelessness-is-rippling-across-the-west-coast\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">A federal court ruling\u003c/a> carries even more weight. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that homeless people essentially have a Constitutional right to camp on public property if local governments can’t provide enough shelter beds and services. The U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal in that case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Marcos Ramirez, co-founder of the Squeaky Wheel Bicycle Coalition\"]‘We know how to do this; we know how to take care of people.

The state’s homeless population \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11792743/hud-report-2-7-uptick-in-nations-homeless-population-due-to-california-spike\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">jumped 16% in the last year\u003c/a>. California has the \u003ca href=\"https://nlchp.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Tent_City_USA_2017.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">highest number of tent cities\u003c/a>, according to a report by the National Law Center on Homelessness & Poverty. And according to a \u003ca href=\"https://files.hudexchange.info/resources/documents/2019-AHAR-Part-1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">new report \u003c/a>by the Department of Housing and Urban Development, California’s homeless population accounts for 53% of all unsheltered people in the country. Overall, the state has more than 150,000 people experiencing homelessness, according to the report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Given the growing crisis, Gov. Gavin Newsom recently proposed more than $1.4 billion in his \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11795344/newsom-zeroes-in-on-education-gaps-homelessness-and-wildfires-in-state-budget\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">new budget \u003c/a>for expanded state and local efforts on immediate housing and services.

The first-term Democrat has also ordered state agencies to do more to help find temporary sites — including decommissioned hospitals or unused land — for the state’s expanding homeless encampments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Across the state, residents are demanding robust coordinated action on what has now become a public health crisis. There are rising concerns about health and safety problems inside the encampments, including \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/CDPH%20Document%20Library/Immunization/2016-18CAOutbreakAssociatedDrugUseHomelessness.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">disease\u003c/a>, open drug use, violence, crime and fire risks.

It’s very hard,” he says of life among broken pallets and ripped tarps. “It’s a struggle for anybody to keep warm and keep your heart and head light and strong. I’m doing the best I can.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gibson, who has lived here for nearly a year, says the camp has a haphazard sense of community. People watch out for each other. But he concedes the camp has serious problems with garbage, vermin, inadequate toilets and some drug use.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>County and city agencies have tried to offer some services, including adding portable toilets and trash control. But camp residents say it’s not enough.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you don’t have someone taking out the trash, it’s gonna pile up,” Gibson says. “Some people are elderly and can’t really do a lot on their own. Some are young people that are very inexperienced with life. I try to a be a guiding light.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a nearby tent, an older woman pops her head out shouting obscenities at no one in particular.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People need to open up their eyes and realize they could end up like this,” Gibson says. “A lot of people are one [pay]check away. Show some humanity.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Soon a pickup truck pulls up with donations. Time to “cowboy up,” Gibson says, as he moves to help unload used warm clothes from a local resident.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I drive by every morning and today I was just heartbroken,” says commuter Vania Supulveda. “My daughter complains, ‘Oh, it’s so cold out today’ when we see this. And we go back home to a nice warm home. It’s depressing. I grew up in Brazil, in a Third World country, and I’ve never seen something like this so close to me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Exploring Solutions\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The Board of Supervisors will vote Tuesday on the purchase of three large homes — two in central Santa Rosa and one in Cotati — that would provide housing for some of the people living on the trail. If approved, Hopkins told KQED’s Forum that the homes could be operational as early as next month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.hcd.ca.gov/grants-funding/active-funding/nplh.shtml\">“No Place Like Home” program \u003c/a>would fund the purchase of the three homes. Hopkins hopes an additional two homes will be purchased eventually, totaling a cost of $6 million that includes furnishings and supportive services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is actually a model that … already is actually working in a lot of areas in Sonoma County,” Hopkins told Forum. “They have been very, very successful at getting people off the street and into housing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some residents in similar models have even transitioned into renting their own apartments, Hopkins said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s always the goal, right? Is to get people back fully on their feet and able to be supporting themselves in a type of housing that is acceptable. What’s happening right now on the Joe Rodota Trail, we know is completely unacceptable,” Hopkins told Forum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Additionally, Hopkins is exploring an outdoor shelter option that would still allow people to camp, but would provide a navigation trailer with supportive services. It would equip people with “fundamental human needs,” such as restrooms, electricity, water and, ideally, shower and laundry facilities, Hopkins said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you talk about the encampment along the Joe Rodota Trail, it is actually very difficult to service because it’s actually spread out over about a mile and a half of linear trail,” Hopkins said. “So it’s tough for service workers to actually go out there … and actually provide people with a plan to get them off the trail and into housing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Public Backlash in Sonoma County\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>“It just showcases the failure of government at all levels to meaningfully have a safety net for human beings,” Hopkins said. “There’s just no room for error now, there’s no safety net.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Thursday, Sonoma County’s chief homelessness official, Geoffrey Ross, announced his resignation. The Board of Supervisors will vote Tuesday to confirm Barbie Robinson, the county health services director, as interim executive director of the Community Development Commission.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Robinson has drawn praise from supervisors, including Hopkins, for stepping into a leadership position and working alongside Ross to craft a plan to allocate \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11792903/sonoma-county-approves-12-million-urgent-plan-for-homeless\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">$12 million in emergency funds\u003c/a> for the encampment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hopkins has also helped lead efforts to find solutions for the camp, including working on the emergency funding plan and setting up an emergency \u003ca href=\"https://abc7news.com/society/sonoma-co-opens-eoc-for-first-time-in-response-to-homeless-crisis/5823059/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">operations center\u003c/a> to better coordinate responses to a complex problem with no easy fixes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the first-term politician is facing blowback over the camp. A handful of angry constituents started \u003ca href=\"https://www.pressdemocrat.com/news/10539186-181/recall-effort-targets-sonoma-county?sba=AAS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">an effort to recall Hopkins\u003c/a>, even though she faces an election in March. Their petition accuses Hopkins of failing to act — “her watch, her failure” — and calls the homeless encampment a “public cesspool” that’s undermining businesses, homes and quality of life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The problem cuts across complex issues, including rising housing costs and skyrocketing rents, stagnant wages, poverty, addiction and mental health treatment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Complicating attempts to find a solution in Sonoma is \u003ca href=\"https://sonomacounty.ca.gov/CAO/Agreement-with-Homeless-Advocates-on-Preliminary-Injunction/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a local injunction\u003c/a> that says the county can’t arrest or fine its way out of the crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/12/13/787861253/how-boises-fight-over-homelessness-is-rippling-across-the-west-coast\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">A federal court ruling\u003c/a> carries even more weight. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that homeless people essentially have a Constitutional right to camp on public property if local governments can’t provide enough shelter beds and services. The U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal in that case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The California Coastal Commission and the State Lands Commission continue their battle with Silicon Valley billionaire Vinod Khosla over public access to Martins Beach on the San Mateo County coast. For 100 years, Bay Area families have been going to this beach, seven miles south of Half Moon Bay, to fish, swim and picnic. The only way onto this scenic beach is a single road through private property. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">After Khosla, co-founder of Sun Microsystems, bought the land surrounding Martins Beach in 2008, he restricted access to that road by displaying “No Trespassing” signs, charging parking fees, and locking its access gate. This newest lawsuit continues a 10-year conflict that could affect land-access rights throughout California. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Paul Rogers\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, managing editor of KQED Science, has been covering the\u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.mercurynews.com/2020/01/06/martins-beach-california-sues-billionaire-vinod-khosla-over-public-access/\"> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">story\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> for the Mercury News, where he writes about the environment.

But the Coastal Commission is now arguing that the court didn’t consider all the evidence.

Khosla has argued that he’s sticking up for his private property rights. Just as people have no right to walk through a landowner’s backyard without permission, he contends that they have no right to use the road through his property. This case represents a big clash between two rights: private property and free access to California’s coastline. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Didn’t Khosla already lose a case that went all the way up to the U.S. Supreme Court?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Two years ago, the nation’s highest court refused to hear an appeal of a case that Khosla lost in three lower courts in California. The landowner had argued that he did not need a permit to close the gate to the access road running through his property to the beach. But California’s coastal law is pretty clear. Property owners need permits from the Coastal Commission not only when they build houses near the beach, but also if they change public access to the beach. So Khosla lost that case. Since then, he has opened the gate most days and he allows people who pay a $10 parking fee to drive to the beach.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>How will the result of this latest lawsuit affect the fight over this beach?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">It’s a really big juncture in this long-running battle because a win for Khosla would establish that there is no legal public right to use that road. Such a decision would make it easier for him to get a permit to close the gate from the Coastal Commission. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">If the state wins, there’s almost no way that the Coastal Commission is going to grant that Khosla permit. Commissioners would argue that the public right to that road existed for decades. Additionally, the commission would probably prevent Khosla from charging the $10 parking fee. Potentially, it could fine him $20 million or more. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Even if California loses this case, the State Lands Commission could try to seize the road or access to it by eminent domain.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

"title": "California May Switch to Shorter Probation Terms",
"headTitle": "KQED News",
"content": "\u003cp>Gov. Gavin Newsom is proposing to overhaul California’s probation system by greatly reducing the time a convict is under supervised release, but increasing rehabilitation programs at the outset of the probationary period, when they are considered the most effective.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He wants to put what he called “an unprecedented amount of money” into a new effort to provide intensive services to those on the lower end of the criminal justice food chain: those serving probation for misdemeanor crimes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s driven in part by a recent scourge in which car burglars have become so emboldened in California’s urban areas that some San Francisco Bay Area gang members are traveling hundreds of miles to steal from tourists’ vehicles in Los Angeles. They are the sort of property crimes that no longer merit prison time under the state’s voter-approved criminal justice reforms, but make life miserable for victims.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This goes directly to the car break-ins, this goes to the petty crime issue, this should be celebrated by the law enforcement community because of the intensity of services we want to provide,” Newsom said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag='criminal-justice' label='Related Coverage']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Currently, the “vast majority” of misdemeanor probationers are not actively engaged in any probation services or programs, officials said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Democratic governor is seeking $210 million over the next four years to pay for the program in the budget he sent to state lawmakers on Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It also includes his counter-intuitive plan to set a maximum two-year limit on probation terms, down from five for felons and three for those convicted of misdemeanors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This will be controversial because it’s a change,” Newsom acknowledged. “The data and the evidence and the science bears out, you front-load services — those first 18 months are determinative.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Keeping offenders under supervision much longer “costs money and for small little petty things you throw people back in the system and that cycle of violence perpetuates itself,” he argued.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The proposal split law enforcement organizations, with probation officers in support and police chiefs opposed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Chief Probation Officers of California said research and recent experience backs Newsom’s contention that concentrating services in the first two years “is the best way to help change their behavior and reduce re-offense.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The proposal builds on a decade-old law that tries to base probation supervision and services on offenders’ risks and needs rather than just considering their crimes. That effort had been concentrated on felons, but the group says it make sense to now extend it to high-risk misdemeanors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The organization’s president, Brian Richart, cited a Judicial Council of California finding that the effort has kept probation revocations low and thus kept more offenders from returning to prisons or jails. He said providing those services early in a probation term “is the most crucial time to change behavior, reduce re-offense and help address needs.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But California Police Chiefs Association President Ron Lawrence said longer probation terms allow officers to readily search offenders, their homes and vehicles, making it easier to find drugs, weapons, stolen items or other evidence.

That effort had been concentrated on felons, but the group says it make sense to now extend it to high-risk misdemeanors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The organization’s president, Brian Richart, cited a Judicial Council of California finding that the effort has kept probation revocations low and thus kept more offenders from returning to prisons or jails. He said providing those services early in a probation term “is the most crucial time to change behavior, reduce re-offense and help address needs.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But California Police Chiefs Association President Ron Lawrence said longer probation terms allow officers to readily search offenders, their homes and vehicles, making it easier to find drugs, weapons, stolen items or other evidence. The supervision also tends to deter criminal behavior, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the chiefs support increased efforts and funding for rehabilitation programs, “where we really struggle and are opposed to changes are anything that would lessen accountability.

The inmate, Travis Benevich, whose lawyer said almost died in the attack, accepted a settlement of $180,000 from the county instead of suing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Three deputies who helped Zaied move Benevich to a padded cell on June 18, 2017 told investigators the inmate’s behavior didn’t warrant the tasing. Benevich, they said, resisted when approaching the cell he was being placed in, but wasn’t being violent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the foremost experts in Taser litigation, Steve Martin, said of the incident, “of course, it’s disturbing.” The former counsel for the Texas Department of Corrections questioned the necessity of “such a high risk” use of force since Benevich was handcuffed behind his back and being escorted by guards.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The release of documents about Zaied’s use of force comes in a year of increased scrutiny of California law enforcement under the new law, \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180SB1421\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Senate Bill 1421\u003c/a>, which ended years of police secrecy about discipline and use of force.

That matters,” said Izaak Schwaiger, Benevich’s attorney.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The use of Tasers, especially in correctional facilities, has long been disputed by experts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s ways to de-escalate a situation without pulling out a Taser,” said Corene Kendrick, a staff attorney at the Prison Law Office in Berkeley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Martin, who is currently the federal monitor of New York City’s Rikers Island, said the problem is people, not Tasers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“(Tasers) can have a great deal of tactical utility when employed under strict conditions and limitations,” Martin said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The problem isn’t the Tasers themselves, according to Martin, but misuse by law enforcement officers.

The 27-year-old says he was protecting his fiancé from a group of rowdy men when deputies arrested him for public intoxication and resisting arrest. He was taken to the Mendocino County Jail and, he said, he immediately felt panicked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was just completely overwhelmed with how scared my kids must have been. What they must have been thinking,” said Benevich, who has an anxiety disorder.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Almost immediately Benevich asked Zaied, the jail supervisor at the time, to place him in a larger cell because small spaces increase his anxiety. He didn’t want to be in jail over the Father’s Day weekend and transcripts of jail audio show Benevich was adamant, he was “going to smash his head open to get the [expletive] out of this room.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zaied opted to move Benevich to a padded cell. Benevich was handcuffed with two deputies each holding one of his arms. All involved agree this part went smoothly until Benevich saw the small cell he was being transferred to. Benevich estimated the cell was “one-third the size” of the one he’d just left.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Benevich dug his heels into the ground and begged not to be put in the smaller cell, deputies told investigators. At some point, Benevich pulled to one side, and the guards pushed him into a wall. Then, Zaied tased him without warning. “I wasn’t even fighting you guys,” said Benevich while crying, according to a recording.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an interview with reporters, Benevich said, “I remember my head hitting the wall. It’s a pain that is in every bone and muscle.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Guards then put Benevich in the cell, where he fell to his knees. Forty-seconds after the first shock, Zaied tased him again. Benevich stopped breathing and went into a seizure while mucus dripped from his nose. He was rushed to a hospital.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think [Zaied] decided to put him into renal failure and put him into a seizure. But he decided to use force, not knowing enough information to know if it was safe,” said Schwaiger, Benevich’s attorney.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zaied did not return calls for comment. But documents show he told internal affairs investigators Benevich was fighting deputies and that he tased him because the inmate was “in danger.” He continued, “Staff was in danger ... it went from controlled to uncontrolled pretty fast.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the other deputies, including the two holding his arms, told investigators a different story. All thought the use of the Taser was unnecessary, documents show. A nurse who was present also described the tasing as excessive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It could have been avoided due to the fact that, you know, the four of us could have probably gained control,” Deputy Issac Sanchez told Sacramento County Sheriff’s Department investigators who did an independent investigation at the request of Mendocino County.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11795567\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11795567\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/Mendo-Sanchez-Transcript-Exerpt.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1306\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/Mendo-Sanchez-Transcript-Exerpt.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/Mendo-Sanchez-Transcript-Exerpt-160x109.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/Mendo-Sanchez-Transcript-Exerpt-800x544.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/Mendo-Sanchez-Transcript-Exerpt-1020x694.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/Mendo-Sanchez-Transcript-Exerpt-1200x816.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">An excerpt from a transcript of a Aug. 3, 2017 interview of Mendocino County Sheriff's Deputy Isaac Sanchez, conducted by Sgt. Marcus Gregory, about the use of a taser on a handcuffed inmate. \u003ccite>(Via Mendocino County Sheriff)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Zaied was eventually found to have violated several department and county policies, including using a Taser on a handcuffed inmate, according to findings by Mendocino County Undersheriff Randy Johnson. He recommended Zaied be demoted, but Zaied fought the findings, and through a settlement agreement, was able to remove some of the policy violations from his record. But his demotion to correctional deputy remained. Zaied now works as a background investigator for new hires at the jail, according to an online bio.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The day before he tased Benevich, Zaied had tased another inmate who was also handcuffed and described in documents as mentally ill. Fernando Martinez, a war veteren diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, was being put back into a padded cell when the incident occurred.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zaied said use of force was necessary with Martinez, and that using the Taser minimized the risk of injury for everyone there, according to the report. Martinez told investigators he was “pretty out of it” and that he may have “tensed up.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the time of both tasings, records show Zaied’s taser certification had expired more than 10 years earlier. He completed Taser training in 2006. It expired in 2007.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former Mendocino County Sheriff Tom Allman, who recently retired, did not return requests for comment on the training or the incident. But in the final Letter of Reprimand, he concluded that during the Benevich incident, while Zaied’s “intent was not malicious, [he] failed to appreciate other options available to [him] prior to the discharge of the Taser.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite the demotion, Zaied’s salary remained roughly the same. According to an online website that tracks state salaries, \u003ca href=\"https://transparentcalifornia.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Transparent California\u003c/a>, he made roughly $149,000 in total pay and benefits in 2018 compared to about $142,000 in 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation=\"Izaak Schwaiger, Benevich's attorney\"]'I don’t think [Zaied] decided to put him into renal failure and put him into a seizure. But he decided to use force, not knowing enough information to know if it was safe'[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The spokesperson for the Mendocino County District Attorney’s Office, Mike Geniella, said District Attorney David Eyster planned to file criminal charges on Zaied, but changed his mind after the case was reviewed by an outside use of force expert who found no wrongdoing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A consultant who did the investigation, Jeffery Martin, concluded that Zaied’s actions were reasonable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his report, Jeffrey Martin wrote that there is nothing to indicate that the Taser or actions of Zaied or the deputies contributed to Benevich’s medical event. Martin argued that Benevich appeared to have “perceived the pain during the event,” and that he was given sufficient time to comply with commands. Martin also wrote that Benevich actively tried to hook one of the deputy’s legs, which could have caused deputies to lose control of him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schwaiger, Benevich’s lawyer — who specializes in police brutality cases — disputes this account, saying there was no provocation, making the tasing particularly egregious. Schwaiger suspects that is part of the reason the county was quick to settle, offering an agreement even before a lawsuit was filed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In exchange for $180,000, Benevich agreed to release the county of all liability and agreed to a confidentiality clause: Benevich couldn’t talk about the settlement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Of course, they didn’t want it to be public record,” said Schwaiger. “The only thing that municipalities hate worse than paying money is bad press.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For two years, the incident remained secret. Schwaiger says that the incident between Benevich and Zaied is exactly what the new transparency law was designed to reveal. However, he worries the onslaught of news stories that have followed the passage of the law detract from the seriousness of each individual case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://projects.scpr.org/california-reporting-project/\">\u003cimg class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-11786993\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/11/crp-alt-logo-1-160x155.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"160\" height=\"155\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/11/crp-alt-logo-1-160x155.png 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/11/crp-alt-logo-1-800x777.png 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/11/crp-alt-logo-1-1020x990.png 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/11/crp-alt-logo-1.png 1030w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 160px) 100vw, 160px\">\u003c/a>\u003cem>This story was produced by the \u003ca href=\"https://projects.scpr.org/california-reporting-project/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">California Reporting Project\u003c/a>, a coalition of 40 news organizations across the state.

The 27-year-old says he was protecting his fiancé from a group of rowdy men when deputies arrested him for public intoxication and resisting arrest. He was taken to the Mendocino County Jail and, he said, he immediately felt panicked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was just completely overwhelmed with how scared my kids must have been. What they must have been thinking,” said Benevich, who has an anxiety disorder.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Almost immediately Benevich asked Zaied, the jail supervisor at the time, to place him in a larger cell because small spaces increase his anxiety. He didn’t want to be in jail over the Father’s Day weekend and transcripts of jail audio show Benevich was adamant, he was “going to smash his head open to get the [expletive] out of this room.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zaied opted to move Benevich to a padded cell. Benevich was handcuffed with two deputies each holding one of his arms. All involved agree this part went smoothly until Benevich saw the small cell he was being transferred to. Benevich estimated the cell was “one-third the size” of the one he’d just left.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Benevich dug his heels into the ground and begged not to be put in the smaller cell, deputies told investigators. At some point, Benevich pulled to one side, and the guards pushed him into a wall. Then, Zaied tased him without warning. “I wasn’t even fighting you guys,” said Benevich while crying, according to a recording.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an interview with reporters, Benevich said, “I remember my head hitting the wall. It’s a pain that is in every bone and muscle.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Guards then put Benevich in the cell, where he fell to his knees. Forty-seconds after the first shock, Zaied tased him again. Benevich stopped breathing and went into a seizure while mucus dripped from his nose. He was rushed to a hospital.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think [Zaied] decided to put him into renal failure and put him into a seizure. But he decided to use force, not knowing enough information to know if it was safe,” said Schwaiger, Benevich’s attorney.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zaied did not return calls for comment. But documents show he told internal affairs investigators Benevich was fighting deputies and that he tased him because the inmate was “in danger.” He continued, “Staff was in danger ... it went from controlled to uncontrolled pretty fast.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the other deputies, including the two holding his arms, told investigators a different story. All thought the use of the Taser was unnecessary, documents show. A nurse who was present also described the tasing as excessive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It could have been avoided due to the fact that, you know, the four of us could have probably gained control,” Deputy Issac Sanchez told Sacramento County Sheriff’s Department investigators who did an independent investigation at the request of Mendocino County.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11795567\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11795567\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/Mendo-Sanchez-Transcript-Exerpt.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1306\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/Mendo-Sanchez-Transcript-Exerpt.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/Mendo-Sanchez-Transcript-Exerpt-160x109.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/Mendo-Sanchez-Transcript-Exerpt-800x544.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/Mendo-Sanchez-Transcript-Exerpt-1020x694.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/Mendo-Sanchez-Transcript-Exerpt-1200x816.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">An excerpt from a transcript of a Aug. 3, 2017 interview of Mendocino County Sheriff's Deputy Isaac Sanchez, conducted by Sgt. Marcus Gregory, about the use of a taser on a handcuffed inmate. \u003ccite>(Via Mendocino County Sheriff)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Zaied was eventually found to have violated several department and county policies, including using a Taser on a handcuffed inmate, according to findings by Mendocino County Undersheriff Randy Johnson. He recommended Zaied be demoted, but Zaied fought the findings, and through a settlement agreement, was able to remove some of the policy violations from his record. But his demotion to correctional deputy remained. Zaied now works as a background investigator for new hires at the jail, according to an online bio.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The day before he tased Benevich, Zaied had tased another inmate who was also handcuffed and described in documents as mentally ill. Fernando Martinez, a war veteren diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, was being put back into a padded cell when the incident occurred.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zaied said use of force was necessary with Martinez, and that using the Taser minimized the risk of injury for everyone there, according to the report. Martinez told investigators he was “pretty out of it” and that he may have “tensed up.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the time of both tasings, records show Zaied’s taser certification had expired more than 10 years earlier. He completed Taser training in 2006. It expired in 2007.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former Mendocino County Sheriff Tom Allman, who recently retired, did not return requests for comment on the training or the incident. But in the final Letter of Reprimand, he concluded that during the Benevich incident, while Zaied’s “intent was not malicious, [he] failed to appreciate other options available to [him] prior to the discharge of the Taser.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite the demotion, Zaied’s salary remained roughly the same. According to an online website that tracks state salaries, \u003ca href=\"https://transparentcalifornia.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Transparent California\u003c/a>, he made roughly $149,000 in total pay and benefits in 2018 compared to about $142,000 in 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Martin argued that Benevich appeared to have “perceived the pain during the event,” and that he was given sufficient time to comply with commands. Martin also wrote that Benevich actively tried to hook one of the deputy’s legs, which could have caused deputies to lose control of him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schwaiger, Benevich’s lawyer — who specializes in police brutality cases — disputes this account, saying there was no provocation, making the tasing particularly egregious. Schwaiger suspects that is part of the reason the county was quick to settle, offering an agreement even before a lawsuit was filed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In exchange for $180,000, Benevich agreed to release the county of all liability and agreed to a confidentiality clause: Benevich couldn’t talk about the settlement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Of course, they didn’t want it to be public record,” said Schwaiger. “The only thing that municipalities hate worse than paying money is bad press.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For two years, the incident remained secret.

Among the top funding priorities is fighting the surging homeless crisis. The new budget earmarks 750 million dollars in funds to pay for rent and immediate housing assistance for homeless people at the local and state level. That’s in addition to an executive order Newsom signed Wednesday, allowing state land to be made available for emergency homeless shelters.Since taking office last year, the governor has also championed cutting health care costs and prescription drug prices.This year’s budget includes a proposal to create California’s own line of generic drugs by negotiating directly with drug makers. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Marisa Lagos, politics and government correspondent, KQED\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>U.S.-Iran Conflict Takes a Toll on Iranian Americans\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Southern California is home to hundreds of thousands of people of Iranian descent, the largest concentration in the U.S. and outside of Iran.

Iran retaliated this week by firing more than a dozen missiles at two U.S. military bases in Iraq housing American troops.
