It will provide a 24-hour confidential hotline (800-729-1443) for anyone to call if they have a sexual harassment complaint against someone who works for the Legislature. And two outside law firms were chosen to investigate those claims, California-based Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher and Sacramento-based Van Dermyden Maddux.

It doesn’t completely prohibit cooperation or the transfer of certain felons to federal custody. It creates a framework for when state agencies may cooperate with federal agencies, and that is only when required by federal law. Previously, state and local authorities could use their discretion in many circumstances.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For people convicted of certain crimes—as many as 800, identified in a 2013 law called the \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201320140AB4\">Trust Act\u003c/a>—there is little protection. Those infractions range from violent crimes and other serious offenses to felony drunk driving. State and local police agencies will still be allowed to let federal immigration authorities know when individuals are to be released and to hand them over to those agents. However, individuals cannot be held beyond their release dates even if they have committed serious crimes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The law does allow state corrections officials to continue to work with federal immigration agencies for those who are incarcerated and who face deportation after serving their sentences. They will continue to communicate with federal authorities about who is in prison and their expected release dates and to hand those individuals over to federal agents upon release.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"bzuYmY6PaC9ZSYwpoAZYGhGUgZyaN588\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it prohibits new or expanded contracts between the federal government and local facilities to be used as \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/articles/feds-seek-beds-lock-deportable-immigrants-california-may-try-thwart/\">detention centers\u003c/a>. Existing contracts are allowed to continue. The law also designates all courts, schools, libraries and hospitals as safe zones, immune to immigration enforcement as long as federal law does not require arrests there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police and sheriffs will not be allowed to act as immigration authorities, inquire about a person’s immigration status, detain someone based only on a federal hold request, participate in arrests based on immigration status, assist immigration authorities in arrests or transfer people to federal custody without a warrant or certain other criteria.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Does the Values Act mean immigration agents can't deport people in California?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>No. No one can claim that living in California makes them exempt from deportation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Federal authorities can conduct raids, arrest suspected undocumented immigrants and do other work separately from state and local law enforcement. In addition, they can continue to communicate with local agencies about arrestees who have committed certain crimes and will be able to take custody of those individuals from local lockups when they are released. Agencies will not honor “hold requests” from federal immigration agencies that previously could last up to 48 hours.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Does it mean undocumented immigrants won't be deported if they commit violent crimes?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>No. Immigrants—those here both legally and illegally—are not safe from deportation under the new law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Undocumented immigrants who are convicted of certain crimes will continue to be reported to federal immigration officials for deportation.

It doesn’t completely prohibit cooperation or the transfer of certain felons to federal custody. It creates a framework for when state agencies may cooperate with federal agencies, and that is only when required by federal law. Previously, state and local authorities could use their discretion in many circumstances.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For people convicted of certain crimes—as many as 800, identified in a 2013 law called the \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201320140AB4\">Trust Act\u003c/a>—there is little protection. Those infractions range from violent crimes and other serious offenses to felony drunk driving. State and local police agencies will still be allowed to let federal immigration authorities know when individuals are to be released and to hand them over to those agents. However, individuals cannot be held beyond their release dates even if they have committed serious crimes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The law does allow state corrections officials to continue to work with federal immigration agencies for those who are incarcerated and who face deportation after serving their sentences. They will continue to communicate with federal authorities about who is in prison and their expected release dates and to hand those individuals over to federal agents upon release.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it prohibits new or expanded contracts between the federal government and local facilities to be used as \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/articles/feds-seek-beds-lock-deportable-immigrants-california-may-try-thwart/\">detention centers\u003c/a>. Existing contracts are allowed to continue. The law also designates all courts, schools, libraries and hospitals as safe zones, immune to immigration enforcement as long as federal law does not require arrests there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police and sheriffs will not be allowed to act as immigration authorities, inquire about a person’s immigration status, detain someone based only on a federal hold request, participate in arrests based on immigration status, assist immigration authorities in arrests or transfer people to federal custody without a warrant or certain other criteria.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Does the Values Act mean immigration agents can't deport people in California?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>No. No one can claim that living in California makes them exempt from deportation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Federal authorities can conduct raids, arrest suspected undocumented immigrants and do other work separately from state and local law enforcement. In addition, they can continue to communicate with local agencies about arrestees who have committed certain crimes and will be able to take custody of those individuals from local lockups when they are released. Agencies will not honor “hold requests” from federal immigration agencies that previously could last up to 48 hours.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Does it mean undocumented immigrants won't be deported if they commit violent crimes?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>No. Immigrants—those here both legally and illegally—are not safe from deportation under the new law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Undocumented immigrants who are convicted of certain crimes will continue to be reported to federal immigration officials for deportation.

Steward talked about her 13-year marriage to Humphreys and the two daughters they raised together.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said it would have been easier for the girls, who were 13 and 18 at the time, to accept their father’s death if had happened naturally, or even by accident.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[audio src=\"https://www.kqed.org/.stream/anon/radio/tcr/2017/12/CoronerObstructSmall.mp3\" title=\"Father of Two Died After an Officer Tased Him 31 Times; Sheriff Called It an Accident\" program=\"The California Report\" image=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/IMG_6147.jpg\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But to know it was preventable, and it was so excessive, and then for nothing to be done,” she said. “I think that's what I struggle with every day for my kids.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Steward said it still stings that San Joaquin County Sheriff-Coroner Steve Moore ruled Humphreys' death an accident -- especially knowing that his office had evidence about the Taser that was withheld from the forensic pathologist who conducted the autopsy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was only reported that he was tased twice and in reality he was tased 31 times,” she said. “I'm not sure how that can be overlooked or swept under a carpet like it was.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Questions about Humphreys’ death surfaced last week when the county’s chief forensic pathologist resigned, accusing Sheriff Moore -- who oversees the coroner’s office -- of meddling in the investigations of deaths in which law enforcement officers were involved.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11634854\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 491px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11634854\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28180_Omalu.png\" alt=\"Dr. Bennet Omalu\" width=\"491\" height=\"733\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28180_Omalu.png 491w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28180_Omalu-160x239.png 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28180_Omalu-240x358.png 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/RS28180_Omalu-375x560.png 375w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 491px) 100vw, 491px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Forensic pathologist Bennet Omalu \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Bennet Omalu)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Dr. Bennet Omalu -- best known for his discovery of a traumatic brain injury in football players and played by Will Smith in the movie \"Concussion\" -- raised the Humphreys case, along with several more recent officer-involved deaths, in memos released last week accusing the sheriff of repeatedly withholding investigative reports and certifying deaths as accidents in order to protect officers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an Aug. 22, 2017, memo -- one of several he wrote this year to document what he sees as wrongdoing by the sheriff -- Omalu said that in the Humphreys case, “information was intentionally withheld from me by the sheriff, in order to mislead me from determining the case to be a homicide.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the time of Humphreys’ death Omalu had been with the county less than a year. He wrote that he had initially thought the suppression of evidence was “an anomaly” but has since come to regard it as “routine.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Physicians Associations Call for Creating an Independent Medical Examiner\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The accusations raise questions more broadly about the independence of death investigations in a sheriff-coroner system, in which forensic pathologists work under a law enforcement officer, according to the California Medical Association and the San Joaquin Medical Society.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The issue of diminished public trust in the autopsy process is not new,” Dr. Grant Mellor, president of the county medical society, wrote in a letter to the San Joaquin County Board of Supervisors last week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Citing related allegations in Santa Clara County, Mellor and the president of the statewide medical association, Dr. Theodore Mazer, called on San Joaquin County officials to immediately create an independent medical examiner’s office and remove control of coroner functions from the sheriff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Joaquin is one of 50 California counties that have an elected sheriff-coroner, while the remaining eight, including San Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego, have independent medical examiners.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Sheriff Calls Accusations of Interference False\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Sheriff Moore has denied Omalu’s allegations.

In a deposition to an attorney for the family, Omalu described what happened when he conducted the autopsy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Omalu said the sheriff’s deputy investigating the death initially told him that the CHP officer who chased Humphreys to that freeway median fired his Taser “twice.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Omalu said he asked sheriff’s investigators for the Taser printout that shows the number of times the trigger was pulled and the length of each electrical shock. He said he kept Humphreys’ autopsy file open for six months, waiting for the report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When he couldn’t get a copy, he based his findings on the evidence available to him. He wrote that the death was likely caused by a head injury from the crash, and -- in the cover sheet accompanying the autopsy report -- he advised the sheriff that the death was an accident.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Omalu testified that two years later he got a phone call from the deputy district attorney assigned to the case. Tori Verber Salazar asked him if he had seen the Taser report. Omalu told her he hadn’t and, according to his deposition, Verber Salazar replied, “I thought as much.” She faxed him the report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Omalu finally saw the 31 Taser discharges -- subjecting Humphreys to 2½ minutes of electrical current -- he no longer considered the death an accident. He amended his autopsy report to state that Humphreys had died from repeated electrical shock when police intervened. And he advised the sheriff that the death was a homicide. In forensic pathology, the definition of homicide is a “death at the hands of another.” The term does not ascribe motive or guilt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to California government code, determining the \u003ci>cause\u003c/i> of death -- what killed a person -- is the purview of the forensic pathologist, in this case Omalu, but certifying the \u003ci>manner\u003c/i> of death -- whether a person’s death is an accident, a homicide, a suicide, a result of natural causes or undetermined -- is the job of the sheriff-coroner.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Humphreys’ death certificate Sheriff Moore listed the manner of death as an accident -- both initially and after Omalu advised him the death should be considered a homicide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When asked about the Humphreys’ case last week, Moore told KQED he needed time to review his files on it before he could answer questions about it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Omalu’s deposition became evidence in the civil lawsuit that Barbara Steward and her daughters filed against the state of California, the CHP and the officer who fired the Taser.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The family’s attorney, Los Angeles-based Peter Williamson, said he is convinced the CHP and the San Joaquin County sheriff engaged in a cover-up. He said the CHP printed out the \u003ca href=\"#taserreport\">Taser report\u003c/a> the day after Humphreys’ death -- the same day Omalu performed the autopsy. According to a source close to the sheriff’s office who asked not to be named for fear of retaliation, deputies there also knew about the Taser.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I cannot for the life of me fathom what the possible explanation could be for the withholding of that evidence,” Williamson told KQED, “other than that it was a not-so-subtle attempt to clear the officer from any wrongdoing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Williamson, who has litigated other Taser lawsuits, explained the weapon shoots two fishhook-shaped prongs that catch on clothing or skin and are connected to the device by electrical wires. Pulling the trigger sends an electrical current through the person’s body, spasming muscles and causing the person to collapse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s what happened to Daniel Humphreys.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He went down and he never moved from the position that he landed in on the ground,” Williamson said. According to reports that Williamson reviewed, the officer “kept yelling for him to move one of his arms, which was pinned underneath him.” When Humphreys didn’t respond, “(the officer) just kept firing over and over and over again.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the time of Humphreys’ death, Barbara Steward worked as a civilian employee in the San Joaquin County Sheriff’s Office. She has since retired.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sitting stiffly on her sofa, she said bitterly that she believes the sheriff buried evidence that Humphreys was killed with a Taser out of fear that it would make it harder for law enforcement to use the weapon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If the sheriff had ruled this as a homicide, as it should have been...” Steward said, “it would have had such impact on law enforcement that he would have taken a lot of heat.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Highway Patrol’s internal investigation cleared the officer of wrongdoing, but it was not released publicly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2015 the state settled the lawsuit with Steward and her daughters for $1 million.

He wrote that he had initially thought the suppression of evidence was “an anomaly” but has since come to regard it as “routine.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Physicians Associations Call for Creating an Independent Medical Examiner\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The accusations raise questions more broadly about the independence of death investigations in a sheriff-coroner system, in which forensic pathologists work under a law enforcement officer, according to the California Medical Association and the San Joaquin Medical Society.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The issue of diminished public trust in the autopsy process is not new,” Dr. Grant Mellor, president of the county medical society, wrote in a letter to the San Joaquin County Board of Supervisors last week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Citing related allegations in Santa Clara County, Mellor and the president of the statewide medical association, Dr. Theodore Mazer, called on San Joaquin County officials to immediately create an independent medical examiner’s office and remove control of coroner functions from the sheriff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Joaquin is one of 50 California counties that have an elected sheriff-coroner, while the remaining eight, including San Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego, have independent medical examiners.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Sheriff Calls Accusations of Interference False\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Sheriff Moore has denied Omalu’s allegations.

In a deposition to an attorney for the family, Omalu described what happened when he conducted the autopsy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Omalu said the sheriff’s deputy investigating the death initially told him that the CHP officer who chased Humphreys to that freeway median fired his Taser “twice.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Omalu said he asked sheriff’s investigators for the Taser printout that shows the number of times the trigger was pulled and the length of each electrical shock. He said he kept Humphreys’ autopsy file open for six months, waiting for the report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When he couldn’t get a copy, he based his findings on the evidence available to him. He wrote that the death was likely caused by a head injury from the crash, and -- in the cover sheet accompanying the autopsy report -- he advised the sheriff that the death was an accident.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Omalu testified that two years later he got a phone call from the deputy district attorney assigned to the case. Tori Verber Salazar asked him if he had seen the Taser report. Omalu told her he hadn’t and, according to his deposition, Verber Salazar replied, “I thought as much.” She faxed him the report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Omalu finally saw the 31 Taser discharges -- subjecting Humphreys to 2½ minutes of electrical current -- he no longer considered the death an accident. He amended his autopsy report to state that Humphreys had died from repeated electrical shock when police intervened. And he advised the sheriff that the death was a homicide. In forensic pathology, the definition of homicide is a “death at the hands of another.” The term does not ascribe motive or guilt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to California government code, determining the \u003ci>cause\u003c/i> of death -- what killed a person -- is the purview of the forensic pathologist, in this case Omalu, but certifying the \u003ci>manner\u003c/i> of death -- whether a person’s death is an accident, a homicide, a suicide, a result of natural causes or undetermined -- is the job of the sheriff-coroner.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Humphreys’ death certificate Sheriff Moore listed the manner of death as an accident -- both initially and after Omalu advised him the death should be considered a homicide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When asked about the Humphreys’ case last week, Moore told KQED he needed time to review his files on it before he could answer questions about it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Omalu’s deposition became evidence in the civil lawsuit that Barbara Steward and her daughters filed against the state of California, the CHP and the officer who fired the Taser.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The family’s attorney, Los Angeles-based Peter Williamson, said he is convinced the CHP and the San Joaquin County sheriff engaged in a cover-up. He said the CHP printed out the \u003ca href=\"#taserreport\">Taser report\u003c/a> the day after Humphreys’ death -- the same day Omalu performed the autopsy. According to a source close to the sheriff’s office who asked not to be named for fear of retaliation, deputies there also knew about the Taser.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I cannot for the life of me fathom what the possible explanation could be for the withholding of that evidence,” Williamson told KQED, “other than that it was a not-so-subtle attempt to clear the officer from any wrongdoing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Williamson, who has litigated other Taser lawsuits, explained the weapon shoots two fishhook-shaped prongs that catch on clothing or skin and are connected to the device by electrical wires. Pulling the trigger sends an electrical current through the person’s body, spasming muscles and causing the person to collapse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s what happened to Daniel Humphreys.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He went down and he never moved from the position that he landed in on the ground,” Williamson said. According to reports that Williamson reviewed, the officer “kept yelling for him to move one of his arms, which was pinned underneath him.” When Humphreys didn’t respond, “(the officer) just kept firing over and over and over again.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the time of Humphreys’ death, Barbara Steward worked as a civilian employee in the San Joaquin County Sheriff’s Office. She has since retired.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sitting stiffly on her sofa, she said bitterly that she believes the sheriff buried evidence that Humphreys was killed with a Taser out of fear that it would make it harder for law enforcement to use the weapon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If the sheriff had ruled this as a homicide, as it should have been...” Steward said, “it would have had such impact on law enforcement that he would have taken a lot of heat.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Highway Patrol’s internal investigation cleared the officer of wrongdoing, but it was not released publicly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2015 the state settled the lawsuit with Steward and her daughters for $1 million.
