"content": "\u003cp>After being a finalist for LAPD chief in 2009 only to see the job go to Charlie Beck, Michel Moore has been selected to succeed Beck by L.A. Mayor Eric Garcetti.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moore, a 37-year veteran of the force, runs the LAPD’s day-to-day patrol operations as first assistant chief, the number two at the department behind Beck, who’s stepping down June 27.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moore, 54, has held nearly every top job at the department, overseeing everything from the budget to personnel to special operations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garcetti noted Moore’s extensive senior-level experience, adding that in his interviews he “brought a very deep sense of what we needed to do” to deal with the various challenges facing the department. “Also, he has the capacity to fire on multiple pistons at the same time,” the mayor said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garcetti picked Moore over Deputy Chief Robert Arcos, a 29-year veteran, and San Francisco Police Chief Bill Scott, a former LAPD deputy chief.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The L.A. City Council still must confirm Garcetti’s selection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moore said “I was humbled beyond description” when Garcetti called Monday to offer him the position.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He praised Beck for the job he has done during his tenure, and said he’s not coming into the position with a preconceived agenda. Moore stressed that he wants to continue a listening campaign that he has been carrying out with people throughout L.A. and with the men and women of the LAPD.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said community members have expressed “a desire that we be more engaged, that we be more deeply invested.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The LAPD Rank-and-File ‘Get to … Be Heard Again’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Moore said some of the things LAPD officers told him confirmed what he already knew, but in some cases what he heard “was water on my face in the sense of waking me up and saying I need to take a fresh look at this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an apparent allusion to the sometimes chilly relations between some of the rank-and-file and Beck, Moore said, “I need the people of this great department to know that today is a day that they get to step forward and be heard again. Whether they feel like they have been in the past is not relevant.” What is relevant, Moore said, “is today as I take on this new position that they know that the organization has an opportunity to reset, an opportunity to reinvent, an opportunity to reinvigorate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The board of directors of the Los Angeles Police Protective League, the officers union, congratulated Moore and expressed its hope that if he’s confirmed “he will take immediate action to address low officer morale stemming from our critically low police staffing and that he will be absolutely committed to collaborating on new ideas to reduce violent crime and prepare our city for the 2028 Olympics.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moore “is one of the most knowledgeable people at the LAPD,” said L.A. County Sheriff Jim McDonnell, who worked alongside Moore for nearly three decades at the LAPD.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Mike Moore is an excellent problem-solver,” said Shane Murphy Goldsmith, who sits on the five-member Police Commission that recommended the three finalists to Garcetti. “He has vast experience and will be able to hit the ground running on day one.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Moore was a candidate for chief in 2009, the Los Angeles Times reported that he was widely credited with helping lower crime rates in the San Fernando Valley during his more than four years in charge of the bureau that oversaw that area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moore was one of eight finalists last year for the job of chief of the Dallas Police Department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several L.A. Latino political leaders had lobbied Garcetti to select Arcos, who would have been the city’s first Latino police chief. When asked about that, the mayor noted that he hired the city’s first Latino fire chief and selected an African-American woman to run Los Angeles World Airports. Garcetti then said, “I wasn’t looking to fill a demographic or make history,” adding, “I wanted the best person for the job, and that’s Mike Moore.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The mayor called Arcos and Scott “exceptional” candidates. “Bobby Arcos will be an amazing chief one day, whether it’s here or another city,” Garcetti said. “He’s an empath.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of Arcos’ advocates, L.A. City Councilman Gil Cedillo, issued a decidedly lukewarm statement following Moore’s selection. He called Garcetti’s announcement “the first step in the selection process,” saying that as the City Council considers the appointment, “I look forward to engaging in a rigorous vetting process with my colleagues.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11662872\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11662872\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti-800x558.jpg\" alt=\"Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti.\" width=\"800\" height=\"558\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti-800x558.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti-160x112.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti-1020x711.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti-1200x836.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti-1180x822.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti-960x669.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti-240x167.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti-375x261.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti-520x362.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti. \u003ccite>(Emma McIntyre/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Cedillo went on to say that council members “know what experience is most important to our communities. It’s within that framework that the council must make its decision to determine what experience matters most and who the next Police Chief will be.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hector Villagra, executive director of the ACLU of Southern California, said Moore “has worked productively with ACLU and other civil rights and community organizations in the LAPD’s creation of a more humane impound policy, enforcement of street vending laws, and limiting the department’s interactions with immigration enforcement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Villagra went on to say that Moore must commit himself to “completely disentangling the department from federal immigration enforcement and limiting dragnet surveillance,” adding that, if confirmed, Moore “must also adopt de-escalation policies, reform gang enforcement practices, and increase transparency and accountability around officer misconduct.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>‘I Am One to Challenge That Status Quo’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In an interview with KPCC before his selection, Moore listed several goals, including: hiring more women and black officers; improving community relations, especially with African-Americans; diving deeper into the role implicit bias may be playing in policing at the LAPD; and shifting more officers from specialized units to patrol cars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The chief-to-be is demanding of employees and peers alike, said Deputy Chief Bob Green. “He is very assertive. He can dominate a meeting,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am one to challenge that status quo,” Moore told KPCC. “That means disrupting a conversation that was going pretty mellow.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said, “I’ve had leaders hold that against me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moore did say “there’s been maturing on my part” over time. “I need to slow down and I need to engage others … I’ve also had to learn I am not always right.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Starting as a 21-year-old patrol officer in 1981, Moore moved up through the ranks, serving as a detective, sergeant and lieutenant, according to his LAPD bio.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He was promoted to captain in 1998, which led to one of his key assignments: assuming command of the Rampart Division following the arrest of then-officer Raphael Perez in a widespread corruption scandal that involving stealing cocaine booked as evidence and stealing drugs from suspects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moore reached the rank of commander in 2002 and deputy chief in 2004. He became an assistant chief in 2010 and was put in charge of the detective bureau and the counterterrorism and special operations bureau. Beck put him at the head of the LAPD’s office of administrative services in 2015, where he oversaw fiscal, personnel, training and other operations. He also chaired the department’s use-of-force review board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As he rose through the ranks, Moore became known as a detail-oriented, data-focused boss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He’s got a memory for everything and he’s very Type A,” said Green. “And his ability to make a good decision is unsurpassed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Green recalled one of the first times he saw Moore in action, during the 2000 Democratic National Convention in L.A. Moore issued a dispersal order to a group of protesters that was in part an acknowledgement of their concerns, said Green, an expert in dealing with that type of situation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was just extremely impressed by his knowledge of crowd management,” said Green, adding that Moore knew how to use more forceful persuasion, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Pentecostal Values, Seeking ‘A Life That Had Meaning’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Moore said he first thought about becoming a police officer when he was 14. He liked the idea of working outdoors in a challenging profession.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At the end of the day, I wanted to do something larger than myself,” he said, “to live a life that had meaning, that felt like I was helping people.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He learned those values attending Pentecostal churches with his family, adding, “my butt was in a lot of pews for a lot of revivals.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For a time, Moore’s family also attended a Seventh-day Adventist church, which honors Saturday as the Sabbath. “That meant sitting at home Friday nights missing high school football games,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moore’s father was a Basque immigrant who moved the family a lot looking for work. Born in Porterville, California, Moore ended up graduating from high school in Conway, Arkansas. By then his father had left and his mother had remarried. His stepfather suggested he drop his father’s name of Sanchotena.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When his mother and stepfather broke up, they moved back to California, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For a time, Moore thought he’d study accounting. But he heard then-LAPD Chief Daryl Gates talk about needing cops who wouldn’t drive by dark alleys but down them.

Mayor Eric Garcetti.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moore, a 37-year veteran of the force, runs the LAPD’s day-to-day patrol operations as first assistant chief, the number two at the department behind Beck, who’s stepping down June 27.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moore, 54, has held nearly every top job at the department, overseeing everything from the budget to personnel to special operations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garcetti noted Moore’s extensive senior-level experience, adding that in his interviews he “brought a very deep sense of what we needed to do” to deal with the various challenges facing the department. “Also, he has the capacity to fire on multiple pistons at the same time,” the mayor said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garcetti picked Moore over Deputy Chief Robert Arcos, a 29-year veteran, and San Francisco Police Chief Bill Scott, a former LAPD deputy chief.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The L.A. City Council still must confirm Garcetti’s selection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moore said “I was humbled beyond description” when Garcetti called Monday to offer him the position.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He praised Beck for the job he has done during his tenure, and said he’s not coming into the position with a preconceived agenda. Moore stressed that he wants to continue a listening campaign that he has been carrying out with people throughout L.A. and with the men and women of the LAPD.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said community members have expressed “a desire that we be more engaged, that we be more deeply invested.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The LAPD Rank-and-File ‘Get to … Be Heard Again’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Moore said some of the things LAPD officers told him confirmed what he already knew, but in some cases what he heard “was water on my face in the sense of waking me up and saying I need to take a fresh look at this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an apparent allusion to the sometimes chilly relations between some of the rank-and-file and Beck, Moore said, “I need the people of this great department to know that today is a day that they get to step forward and be heard again. Whether they feel like they have been in the past is not relevant.” What is relevant, Moore said, “is today as I take on this new position that they know that the organization has an opportunity to reset, an opportunity to reinvent, an opportunity to reinvigorate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The board of directors of the Los Angeles Police Protective League, the officers union, congratulated Moore and expressed its hope that if he’s confirmed “he will take immediate action to address low officer morale stemming from our critically low police staffing and that he will be absolutely committed to collaborating on new ideas to reduce violent crime and prepare our city for the 2028 Olympics.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moore “is one of the most knowledgeable people at the LAPD,” said L.A. County Sheriff Jim McDonnell, who worked alongside Moore for nearly three decades at the LAPD.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Mike Moore is an excellent problem-solver,” said Shane Murphy Goldsmith, who sits on the five-member Police Commission that recommended the three finalists to Garcetti. “He has vast experience and will be able to hit the ground running on day one.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Moore was a candidate for chief in 2009, the Los Angeles Times reported that he was widely credited with helping lower crime rates in the San Fernando Valley during his more than four years in charge of the bureau that oversaw that area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moore was one of eight finalists last year for the job of chief of the Dallas Police Department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several L.A. Latino political leaders had lobbied Garcetti to select Arcos, who would have been the city’s first Latino police chief. When asked about that, the mayor noted that he hired the city’s first Latino fire chief and selected an African-American woman to run Los Angeles World Airports. Garcetti then said, “I wasn’t looking to fill a demographic or make history,” adding, “I wanted the best person for the job, and that’s Mike Moore.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The mayor called Arcos and Scott “exceptional” candidates. “Bobby Arcos will be an amazing chief one day, whether it’s here or another city,” Garcetti said. “He’s an empath.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of Arcos’ advocates, L.A. City Councilman Gil Cedillo, issued a decidedly lukewarm statement following Moore’s selection. He called Garcetti’s announcement “the first step in the selection process,” saying that as the City Council considers the appointment, “I look forward to engaging in a rigorous vetting process with my colleagues.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11662872\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11662872\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti-800x558.jpg\" alt=\"Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti.\" width=\"800\" height=\"558\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti-800x558.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti-160x112.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti-1020x711.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti-1200x836.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti-1180x822.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti-960x669.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti-240x167.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti-375x261.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/Garcetti-520x362.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti. \u003ccite>(Emma McIntyre/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Cedillo went on to say that council members “know what experience is most important to our communities. It’s within that framework that the council must make its decision to determine what experience matters most and who the next Police Chief will be.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hector Villagra, executive director of the ACLU of Southern California, said Moore “has worked productively with ACLU and other civil rights and community organizations in the LAPD’s creation of a more humane impound policy, enforcement of street vending laws, and limiting the department’s interactions with immigration enforcement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Villagra went on to say that Moore must commit himself to “completely disentangling the department from federal immigration enforcement and limiting dragnet surveillance,” adding that, if confirmed, Moore “must also adopt de-escalation policies, reform gang enforcement practices, and increase transparency and accountability around officer misconduct.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>‘I Am One to Challenge That Status Quo’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In an interview with KPCC before his selection, Moore listed several goals, including: hiring more women and black officers; improving community relations, especially with African-Americans; diving deeper into the role implicit bias may be playing in policing at the LAPD; and shifting more officers from specialized units to patrol cars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The chief-to-be is demanding of employees and peers alike, said Deputy Chief Bob Green. “He is very assertive. He can dominate a meeting,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am one to challenge that status quo,” Moore told KPCC. “That means disrupting a conversation that was going pretty mellow.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said, “I’ve had leaders hold that against me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moore did say “there’s been maturing on my part” over time. “I need to slow down and I need to engage others … I’ve also had to learn I am not always right.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Starting as a 21-year-old patrol officer in 1981, Moore moved up through the ranks, serving as a detective, sergeant and lieutenant, according to his LAPD bio.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He was promoted to captain in 1998, which led to one of his key assignments: assuming command of the Rampart Division following the arrest of then-officer Raphael Perez in a widespread corruption scandal that involving stealing cocaine booked as evidence and stealing drugs from suspects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moore reached the rank of commander in 2002 and deputy chief in 2004. He became an assistant chief in 2010 and was put in charge of the detective bureau and the counterterrorism and special operations bureau. Beck put him at the head of the LAPD’s office of administrative services in 2015, where he oversaw fiscal, personnel, training and other operations. He also chaired the department’s use-of-force review board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As he rose through the ranks, Moore became known as a detail-oriented, data-focused boss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He’s got a memory for everything and he’s very Type A,” said Green. “And his ability to make a good decision is unsurpassed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Green recalled one of the first times he saw Moore in action, during the 2000 Democratic National Convention in L.A. Moore issued a dispersal order to a group of protesters that was in part an acknowledgement of their concerns, said Green, an expert in dealing with that type of situation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was just extremely impressed by his knowledge of crowd management,” said Green, adding that Moore knew how to use more forceful persuasion, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Pentecostal Values, Seeking ‘A Life That Had Meaning’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Moore said he first thought about becoming a police officer when he was 14. He liked the idea of working outdoors in a challenging profession.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At the end of the day, I wanted to do something larger than myself,” he said, “to live a life that had meaning, that felt like I was helping people.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He learned those values attending Pentecostal churches with his family, adding, “my butt was in a lot of pews for a lot of revivals.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For a time, Moore’s family also attended a Seventh-day Adventist church, which honors Saturday as the Sabbath. “That meant sitting at home Friday nights missing high school football games,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moore’s father was a Basque immigrant who moved the family a lot looking for work. Born in Porterville, California, Moore ended up graduating from high school in Conway, Arkansas. By then his father had left and his mother had remarried. His stepfather suggested he drop his father’s name of Sanchotena.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When his mother and stepfather broke up, they moved back to California, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For a time, Moore thought he’d study accounting. But he heard then-LAPD Chief Daryl Gates talk about needing cops who wouldn’t drive by dark alleys but down them. He quit his better-paying Lockheed job building planes and joined the LAPD.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I saw a great deal of violence,” Moore said of his early years, when the scourge of rock cocaine brought piles of cash, guns by the thousands and untold misery to poor neighborhoods.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Community ‘Saw Us as Occupiers’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>He was involved in two shootings. In 1985, while working in South L.A.’s Newton Division, Moore wounded a man who pointed a gun at him and his partner inside a produce market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The next year, he was moonlighting as a security guard at Topanga Plaza when a man with a rifle killed his wife in the parking lot.

While most were claimed by their families, at least 17 were not.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These are the people who the county classifies as “indigent,” meaning their families could not afford or refused to claim their bodies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They have no estate, they have no assets, these are just people living day to day,” says Richard Rodriguez. He’s been working at the \u003ca href=\"http://www.ocsd.org/divisions/fieldops/coroner\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Orange County Coroner’s Office\u003c/a> for 37 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s just no family. There’s no one that’s willing to take responsibility to move forward with this person’s final destination.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just to be clear, not every person found dead in Orange County goes to the coroner’s office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s a long list of reasons why a body might end up here. For example, if the death is associated with a crime. If they die of starvation, contagious disease or a drug overdose. Whatever the reason, once they’re wheeled into the coroner’s Santa Ana office, the work begins.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first step is \u003ca href=\"http://www.ocsd.org/divisions/fieldops/coroner/ud\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">identification\u003c/a>. It starts with running fingerprints and then, if the deceased is still unidentifiable, looks to other clues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Scars or tattoos or circumstances surrounding the death of this individual,” says Rodriguez. “There may be people who know him, maybe offer some guidance.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If that doesn’t work, there are dental records Rodriguez and his colleagues can use. They can search through hospital, arrest or DMV records. But finding out who they are? That’s just step one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The coroner’s office tries to piece together what happened at the end of each person’s life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, they try to find the families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They’re obligated to search. According to the coroner’s office, they “can’t just take the burden” of the remains on themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But sometimes it can be difficult to get a family to agree to claim their loved ones.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It can be 20 or 30 some-odd years before they even had contact,” explains Rodriguez. “And a lot of times we see because of their history of either drug abuse … problems that they have, a lot of them are mental issues sometimes, and some people just prefer to just live on their own and don’t want to be exposed or known … it’s just in their chemistry, I think.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sometimes families can’t afford the costs associated with claiming their loved one, which can get expensive quickly. Aside from transportation fees, there’s the death certificate, paying for cremation or burial, and other costs associated with saying goodbye.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once a body is declared “indigent,” it’s turned over to a mortuary. Local mortuaries apply to be part of the program that contracts with the county and operate on one-month rotations, taking the indigent dead to their final resting place for $450 per person.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alfonso Gonzalez is the owner, funeral director and embalmer for Reflections Funeral Home in Anaheim. His mortuary is currently on rotation with the county.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once they get the call that there’s an indigent death, they make the arrangements: Bodies are cremated and the remains held for two years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After those two years “we charter a boat,” says Gonzalez. “The captain and mates will take out the cremated remains and he’ll have a ceremony in private to scatter those cremated remains at sea.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The entire journey can take a couple of years: from cold storage, to an urn, to that final trip out to sea.\u003c/p>\n\n",

For example, if the death is associated with a crime. If they die of starvation, contagious disease or a drug overdose. Whatever the reason, once they’re wheeled into the coroner’s Santa Ana office, the work begins.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first step is \u003ca href=\"http://www.ocsd.org/divisions/fieldops/coroner/ud\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">identification\u003c/a>. It starts with running fingerprints and then, if the deceased is still unidentifiable, looks to other clues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Scars or tattoos or circumstances surrounding the death of this individual,” says Rodriguez. “There may be people who know him, maybe offer some guidance.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If that doesn’t work, there are dental records Rodriguez and his colleagues can use. They can search through hospital, arrest or DMV records. But finding out who they are? That’s just step one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The coroner’s office tries to piece together what happened at the end of each person’s life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, they try to find the families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They’re obligated to search. According to the coroner’s office, they “can’t just take the burden” of the remains on themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But sometimes it can be difficult to get a family to agree to claim their loved ones.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It can be 20 or 30 some-odd years before they even had contact,” explains Rodriguez. “And a lot of times we see because of their history of either drug abuse … problems that they have, a lot of them are mental issues sometimes, and some people just prefer to just live on their own and don’t want to be exposed or known … it’s just in their chemistry, I think.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sometimes families can’t afford the costs associated with claiming their loved one, which can get expensive quickly. Aside from transportation fees, there’s the death certificate, paying for cremation or burial, and other costs associated with saying goodbye.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once a body is declared “indigent,” it’s turned over to a mortuary. Local mortuaries apply to be part of the program that contracts with the county and operate on one-month rotations, taking the indigent dead to their final resting place for $450 per person.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alfonso Gonzalez is the owner, funeral director and embalmer for Reflections Funeral Home in Anaheim. His mortuary is currently on rotation with the county.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once they get the call that there’s an indigent death, they make the arrangements: Bodies are cremated and the remains held for two years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After those two years “we charter a boat,” says Gonzalez. “The captain and mates will take out the cremated remains and he’ll have a ceremony in private to scatter those cremated remains at sea.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The entire journey can take a couple of years: from cold storage, to an urn, to that final trip out to sea.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Phillips, a devout Christian, told the couple he could not accommodate their request, because he believed that God intended marriage to be the union of one man and one woman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The gay couple subsequently lodged a discrimination complaint against Phillips. The complaint was upheld by the Colorado Civil Rights Commission, which ordered Phillips to \"cease and desist\" discriminating against same-sex couples in his sale of baked goods. Phillips appealed the ruling all the way to the Supreme Court, and the court on Monday agreed with him, on the grounds that he was entitled to religious freedom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The laws and the Constitution can, and in some instances must, protect gay persons and gay couples in the exercise of their civil rights,\" the court found, \"but religious and philosophical objections to gay marriage are protected views and in some instances protected forms of expression.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The court ruling was hailed by the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), a conservative nonprofit organization that supported Phillips' appeal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Jack serves all customers; he simply declines to express messages or celebrate events that violate his deeply held beliefs,\" said ADF Senior Counsel Kristen Waggoner. \"This decision makes clear that the government must respect Jack's beliefs about marriage.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The court ruling was drawn narrowly, however, and civil rights groups reacted to the decision with some relief.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The Supreme Court acknowledged that LGBTQ people are equal and have a right to live free from the indignity of discrimination,\" said Chad Griffin, president of the Human Rights Campaign. \"Anti-LGBTQ extremists did not win the sweeping 'license to discriminate' they have been hoping for.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) noted in a statement that the court's decision was based on \"concerns unique in the case\" and that it \"reaffirmed its longstanding rule that states can prevent the harms of discrimination in the marketplace,\" in the words of ACLU Deputy Legal Director Louise Melling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The unique issue in the \u003cem>Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission \u003c/em>case concerned statements made by commissioners about Phillips' assertion of a right to freely exercise his religious faith in accordance with his beliefs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Writing for the court majority, Justice Anthony Kennedy said some commissioners \"disparaged Phillips' faith as despicable and characterized it as merely rhetorical, and compared his invocation of his sincerely held religious beliefs to defenses of slavery and the Holocaust.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Such statements, Kennedy wrote, indicated \"clear and impermissible hostility\" toward his religious beliefs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"For Justice Kennedy, that was a warning sign that free exercise of religion and claims of free exercise of religion are not being treated fairly,\" said Charles Haynes, founding director of the nonpartisan Religious Freedom Center in Washington, D.C. \"I think he wanted to say, 'That cannot stand.'\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kennedy had also argued that dissenting views on same sex marriage should be treated respectfully when he wrote the majority opinion in the court's 2015 \u003cem>Obergefell v. Hodges \u003c/em>ruling, which legalized same-sex marriage in the United States.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The view that marriage is the union of a man and a woman, Kennedy wrote \u003ca href=\"https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/14pdf/14-556_3204.pdf\">in that ruling\u003c/a>, \"has been held—and continues to be held—in good faith by reasonable and sincere people here and throughout the world.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the Colorado case, Kennedy noted that other bakers in the state were not punished for refusing to make cakes with messages condemning homosexuality and same-sex marriage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The state can't play favorites,\" said ADF Senior Counsel Waggoner, speaking on a conference call with reporters. \"I think that's what the court said loud and clear today. Because it did play favorites, because it expressed hostility towards [Phillips], that's why the case was reversed.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unresolved in the Supreme Court decision was whether disputes over same-sex weddings and religious freedom objections might be seen differently if they were handled by civil rights commissions in a more neutral manner.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There is no helpful national standard,\" says John Inazu, a professor of law at Washington University Law School who specializes in religious freedom claims. \"The court's jurisprudence means that we're going to have state-by-state norms that vary quite a bit ... about what counts as protections for religious freedom.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Liberal states may be more inclined to protect the rights of same-sex couples, while conservative states may be inclined to limit those rights in the name of protecting religious freedom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"One of the consequences of this,\" Inazu says, \"is that we're going to see blue state/red state arrangements deepen rather than come together.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2018 NPR.

The court's four most conservative justices, including Chief Justice John Roberts, concurred with the decision, offering different rationales for the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Every Supreme Court term, there is at least one case that gets people's blood up. A case on which just about everyone has an opinion, often a ferocious opinion. This is one of them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This case began when Charlie Craig and Dave Mullins were organizing a wedding reception for themselves in Lakewood, Colorado, and were referred by their wedding planner to the Masterpiece Cakeshop, known in particular for its wedding cakes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Mullins, along with Craig and his mother, arrived at the shop, bakery owner Jack Phillips greeted them politely, but, as soon as he realized who the wedding cake was for, Phillips instantly knew this was \"not a cake that I can make.\" And he informed them that he did not make cakes for same-sex weddings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Phillips believes that same-sex marriages are sinful, that marriage is to be between a man and a woman. \"I don't believe that Jesus would have made a cake if he had been a baker,\" he said on ABC's \u003cem>The View\u003c/em>. \"I'm not judging these two gay men,\" he continued, \"I'm just trying to preserve my right as an artist to decide which artistic endeavors I'm going to do and which ones I'm not.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That, however, was not how Charlie Craig felt. \"Man, it was just really humiliating,\" Craig said, noting that he was particularly embarrassed for this to have happened in front of his mother.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the couple would soon learn, Colorado, like most states, has a state anti-discrimination law for businesses that are open to the public. Colorado bars discrimination based on race, religion, gender and sexual orientation. So Mullins and Craig filed a complaint with the state Commission on Civil Rights, which ruled in their favor, as did the state Supreme Court.
