Jerry Brown and the four leaders of California's Legislature reached a compromise Monday on reducing the state's prison population, offering to spend more money on rehabilitation efforts if a panel of federal judges will extend an end-of-the-year deadline to release thousands of inmates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The deal relies on the state persuading three federal judges to give California time to let rehabilitation programs work rather than spend $315 million to lease cells in private prisons and county jails.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The leaders agreed that if the judges don't extend the deadline, the state will fall back on Brown's plan to lease the cells.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There's insurance here against early release\" of prisoners, Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg, D-Sacramento, said at a news conference outside the governor's office, where he was joined by the governor and Democratic and Republican leaders of each chamber.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Steinberg had opposed Brown's plan and wanted to ask the judges to delay the deadline for three years while the state gave counties $200 million annually for drug, mental health and other rehabilitation programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agreement reached Monday resolves the impasse as lawmakers race toward the end of the legislative session this week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, there is no guarantee the judges will go along.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The three-judge panel ordered the state to lower its prison population by about 9,600 inmates by year's end. Brown is appealing that decision to the U.S. Supreme Court, but the justices recently declined to delay the deadline set by the lower court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Without an alternative, the judges have threatened to order the state to give thousands of inmates good time credits, which would lead to their early release. They have repeatedly threatened to hold Brown in contempt if the state does not meet the deadline to reduce the prison population to about 110,000 inmates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bill to be considered this week includes Brown's original plan to lease cells if the judges stick to the year-end deadline. If they grant an extension of time, a portion of the money that would have been spent to rent cells would instead go to rehabilitation programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brown has argued that the state already reduced the population by 46,000 inmates to comply with court orders, primarily through a 2-year-old law that sentences lower level offenders to county jails instead of state prisons. He argues that only the most dangerous convicts remain in state prisons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That's huge, that's monumental. We can build on that, but not in a month or a year,\" Brown said Monday about previous inmate reductions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Steinberg had orchestrated opposition from Senate Democrats to Brown's plan and wanted the administration to negotiate with attorneys who represent inmates to push back the year-end deadline by three years. Brown rejected those talks, saying he would not let inmates' attorneys help determine the state's public safety policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The resulting compromise includes no new proposed deadline for the state to meet the court-ordered population level if an extension is granted, nor does it promise benchmarks or guarantees that the state would comply if granted more time, said Prison Law Office director Don Specter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We don't believe it's sufficient to meet the court's order or even get a reasonable extension of time,\" said Specter, whose firm is among those that sued to force the state to reduce prison crowding to improve conditions. \"It's not specific enough, it's not certain enough.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brown said he did not know what the three judges would do about the deadline.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Brown and Steinberg said they had been seeing \"smoke-signals\" that the judges were willing to consider the state's proposal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>J. Clark Kelso, appointed by the federal courts to oversee prison medical care, has been meeting with legislative and administrative officials in recent days. He and his spokeswoman declined comment.\u003c/p>\n\n",

They have repeatedly threatened to hold Brown in contempt if the state does not meet the deadline to reduce the prison population to about 110,000 inmates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bill to be considered this week includes Brown's original plan to lease cells if the judges stick to the year-end deadline. If they grant an extension of time, a portion of the money that would have been spent to rent cells would instead go to rehabilitation programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brown has argued that the state already reduced the population by 46,000 inmates to comply with court orders, primarily through a 2-year-old law that sentences lower level offenders to county jails instead of state prisons. He argues that only the most dangerous convicts remain in state prisons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That's huge, that's monumental. We can build on that, but not in a month or a year,\" Brown said Monday about previous inmate reductions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Steinberg had orchestrated opposition from Senate Democrats to Brown's plan and wanted the administration to negotiate with attorneys who represent inmates to push back the year-end deadline by three years. Brown rejected those talks, saying he would not let inmates' attorneys help determine the state's public safety policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The resulting compromise includes no new proposed deadline for the state to meet the court-ordered population level if an extension is granted, nor does it promise benchmarks or guarantees that the state would comply if granted more time, said Prison Law Office director Don Specter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We don't believe it's sufficient to meet the court's order or even get a reasonable extension of time,\" said Specter, whose firm is among those that sued to force the state to reduce prison crowding to improve conditions. \"It's not specific enough, it's not certain enough.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brown said he did not know what the three judges would do about the deadline.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Brown and Steinberg said they had been seeing \"smoke-signals\" that the judges were willing to consider the state's proposal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>J. Clark Kelso, appointed by the federal courts to oversee prison medical care, has been meeting with legislative and administrative officials in recent days. He and his spokeswoman declined comment.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

So the governor is now proposing a $315 million plan to meet the court’s population mandate by sending prisoners to out-of-state prisons, community jails and privately run prison facilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The plan is to find as many cells as needed,” Brown said. “The only way to comply with (the federal court order) consistent with public safety, consistent with maintaining the reforms we’ve already introduced, is to purchase additional capacity. That’s the plan.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California needs to either release or find space for about 9,500 prisoners to meet the federal mandate. “We are not – any of us – willing to release an additional single prisoner,” said Assembly Speaker John Perez, who is supporting Brown’s proposal. So are the Assembly and Senate’s top Republicans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the plan to rent out additional beds has one powerful opponent: Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg, who controls two-thirds of the Senate’s votes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The Governor’s proposal is a plan with no promise and no hope,” Steinberg said in an e-mailed statement. “As the population of California grows, it's only a short matter of time until new prison cells overflow and the Court demands mass releases again.

He surveyed five businesses, and found an auto shop that had footage of the collision from a camera pointed directly at the intersection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What was so upsetting and distressing to find out is that the police had told us at the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition on three separate occasions they looked for video footage and that none could be found,” said Kristin Smith, communications director for the SFBC. “It was in a 15-minute quick check that our staffer was able to find this. It was really just basic police work.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Smith said they found the footage in the nick of time because the auto shop had planned to erase it the next morning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An attorney for Le Moullac’s family, Micha Star Liberty, said the video confirms her client did not cause the collision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What’s most important is that it reveals to me that she was a true victim with respect to this collision and did nothing wrong,” said Liberty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To make matters worse, the police initially refused to give Liberty a copy of the police report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s crystal clear that the family of Amelie Le Moullac and me as their attorney should be given information contained in the report,” Liberty said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was only after media calls that police finally indicated they were going to release it\u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/nevius/article/Police-response-to-cyclist-s-death-offtrack-4762740.php\">, according to Nevius\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>By Monday, the department had changed its tune, probably after the intervention of Police Chief \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/?controllerName=search&action=search&channel=bayarea%2Fnevius&search=1&inlineLink=1&query=%22Greg+Suhr%22\">Greg Suhr\u003c/a>, who responded quickly to a text questioning the delay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Normally we do not release accident reports that result in death,\" Suhr replied. \"That said, we're working on getting a copy of the report to the family.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Liberty said she had been told to expect an e-mail copy of the report that afternoon.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Nevius described the SFPD’s response to the crash as “tone-deaf.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bike advocates say they're disturbed that many collisions caused by drivers that end in the deaths of bicyclists \u003ca href=\"http://cironline.org/reports/bay-area-drivers-who-kill-pedestrians-rarely-face-punishment-analysis-finds-4420\">and pedestrians\u003c/a> are written off as “tragic accidents,\" with no citations or charges except in drunken driving and hit-and-run cases. Some have accused the police of having a bias against bicyclists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve heard from many of our members that they’ve had unfortunate interactions with the police,” said Smith. “What’s really distressing right now is that this might not be an isolated incident.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A spokesman for the San Francisco Police Department, Albie Esparza, said he understands the “perception” and “concern” from bike advocates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t know the information that was available to the investigators. We do certainly ask for the public’s help and assistance,” said Esparza. “If this piece of evidence was not retrieved, it is now. We have it in our possession and we’re grateful for the people who came forward and provided us with that information, which we’re going to take a look at and incorporate into our investigation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The police investigation will be forwarded to the San Francisco district attorney’s office, which will decide whether formal charges will be filed against the truck driver.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, the SFBC says it is \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfbike.org/main/open-letter-to-mayor-lee-take-action-on-soma-streets/\">pushing the mayor\u003c/a> and the Municipal Transportation Agency to install a green protected bikeway on Folsom Street.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
