On Wednesday night the commission voted unanimously to investigate the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But even before it started, the investigation has run into serious obstacles. The police are conducting their own investigation, and a Berkeley ordinance prevents a commission investigation from beginning until criminal investigations are complete.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It will be stayed by our regulations pending the investigation by the Berkeley Police Department, which is a little ridiculous,” Commissioner Seth Morris said. “But it sounds like that’s what our regulations are. Until we rewrite the book, that’s where we are.”\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The commission did file a formal complaint, the first step toward an investigation. The complaint had to be filed within 90 days of the incident.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Berkeley Police Department has released few details about officers’ response to Moore’s apartment. Berkeley Police Chief Michael Meehan said three official investigations are pending – one criminal, one internal policy and training, and a third investigation into Moore’s cause of death by the \u003ca href=\"https://www.alamedacountysheriff.org/cws_coroners.php\">Alameda County Coroner\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The police have also refused to release basic information about the nature of officers’ encounter with Moore, citing their ongoing investigations. A Feb. 13 department \u003ca href=\"http://www.ci.berkeley.ca.us/uploadedFiles/Police/Level_3_-_General/Subject%20Dies%20Following%20Struggle%20With%20Police.pdf\">press release\u003c/a> said police responded to a disturbance at Moore’s downtown Berkeley apartment, and Moore “became increasingly uncooperative to the officer’s verbal commands and began to scream and violently resist.” Officer’s struggled with Moore, and then placed her “in restraints.” They later determined she had stopped breathing and initiated CPR.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The account raised a lot of questions for Moore’s family and friends, who often refer to Kayla by her given name Xavier and use the male pronoun.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moore’s sister, Maria Moore, said Berkeley Police knew Moore’s history.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Berkeley was well aware of Xavier’s issues,” she said. “I don’t know the circumstances that happened that night, but mental health wasn’t there for him. They needed that aspect to help calm him down, to help communicate with him. You’re dealing with someone who’s paranoid, who trusts no one, and you have the police there?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He had his issues, psychiatric and some drug addiction issues, but he was a gentle soul,” said Carl Butler, the longtime boyfriend of Moore’s sister. “He spent more time taking care of other people than he did himself. Unless prompted, he was never aggressive, which leads to so many questions about the actions of the Berkeley PD that night.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the meeting, Butler pressed Meehan on the fact that officers who responded to Moore’s apartment have been removed from administrative leave and are back on their beats, but Meehan offered no explanation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My main concern at this point in time, other than the lack of information being shared with us, is the fact that the police officers involved are back on duty, which shows me that there has been an internal investigation completed,” Butler said. “How come the chief couldn’t share findings of that investigation this evening?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Berkeley Police spokeswoman Officer Jennifer Coats said the officers had served the set period of time defined by department policy on administrative leave, and had since been put back on their beats. She did not know how long that period is or who makes the administrative decision to reinstate officers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maria Moore said her sibling defied stereotypes that may come to mind for people diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Xavier had a great bubbly personality,” she said. “He was a ditzy bleach blond in a 300 pound black man’s body. He was just so, loving life. He loved everybody.

Berkeley Police Chief Michael Meehan said three official investigations are pending – one criminal, one internal policy and training, and a third investigation into Moore’s cause of death by the \u003ca href=\"https://www.alamedacountysheriff.org/cws_coroners.php\">Alameda County Coroner\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The police have also refused to release basic information about the nature of officers’ encounter with Moore, citing their ongoing investigations. A Feb. 13 department \u003ca href=\"http://www.ci.berkeley.ca.us/uploadedFiles/Police/Level_3_-_General/Subject%20Dies%20Following%20Struggle%20With%20Police.pdf\">press release\u003c/a> said police responded to a disturbance at Moore’s downtown Berkeley apartment, and Moore “became increasingly uncooperative to the officer’s verbal commands and began to scream and violently resist.” Officer’s struggled with Moore, and then placed her “in restraints.” They later determined she had stopped breathing and initiated CPR.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The account raised a lot of questions for Moore’s family and friends, who often refer to Kayla by her given name Xavier and use the male pronoun.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moore’s sister, Maria Moore, said Berkeley Police knew Moore’s history.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Berkeley was well aware of Xavier’s issues,” she said. “I don’t know the circumstances that happened that night, but mental health wasn’t there for him. They needed that aspect to help calm him down, to help communicate with him. You’re dealing with someone who’s paranoid, who trusts no one, and you have the police there?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He had his issues, psychiatric and some drug addiction issues, but he was a gentle soul,” said Carl Butler, the longtime boyfriend of Moore’s sister. “He spent more time taking care of other people than he did himself. Unless prompted, he was never aggressive, which leads to so many questions about the actions of the Berkeley PD that night.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the meeting, Butler pressed Meehan on the fact that officers who responded to Moore’s apartment have been removed from administrative leave and are back on their beats, but Meehan offered no explanation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My main concern at this point in time, other than the lack of information being shared with us, is the fact that the police officers involved are back on duty, which shows me that there has been an internal investigation completed,” Butler said. “How come the chief couldn’t share findings of that investigation this evening?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Berkeley Police spokeswoman Officer Jennifer Coats said the officers had served the set period of time defined by department policy on administrative leave, and had since been put back on their beats. She did not know how long that period is or who makes the administrative decision to reinstate officers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maria Moore said her sibling defied stereotypes that may come to mind for people diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Xavier had a great bubbly personality,” she said. “He was a ditzy bleach blond in a 300 pound black man’s body. He was just so, loving life. He loved everybody. He was just very innocent, childlike.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meehan refused to offer a timeline to the commission for completing any of the investigations, saying at one point they would have to wait for a complete coroner’s report, which can take more than three months, according to the Coroner’s office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The coroner’s office doesn’t work for us,” Meehan said to the commission. “They are completely independent, and they operate on the timeline that they operate on.

And now another matter involving the chief has some Berkeleyites shaking their heads anew.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For an update, we turn to Tracey Taylor of KQED news associate Berkeleyside, which has been \u003ca href=\"http://www.berkeleyside.com/2012/05/23/berkeley-police-chief-not-some-kind-of-preferential-treatment/\">following the story\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Edited transcript...\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JON BROOKS\u003c/strong>: Over the last couple of days, whenever I tell anyone about this story, they seem to almost be in a state of disbelief. But the chief and the department are defending themselves and don't seem to think anything is unusual here. Tell us what happened...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>BERKELEYSIDE'S TRACEY TAYLOR\u003c/strong>: It emerged that on Jan 11 Berkeley Police Department Chief Michael Meehan took part in an investigation that involved sending 10 officers to Oakland to find his son's iPhone. He also went out on the call.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The incident started when his son turned up at the Berkeley police station just across the street from Berkeley High School, where he goes, to tell his father that his iPhone had been stolen. Chief Meehan had on his own phone a tracking device which one of the detectives was able to use to track the iPhone to a certain location in Oakland. The decision was made to send 10 officers to this residential block in Oakland to look for the phone. Meehan was present when the officers were knocking on doors -- in one block in Oakland, several officers knocked on doors to try to locate the phone, which was never found.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of the officers involved were from the drug task force, and they opted to come in and help on the investigation. And four of the officers involved, property crime detectives, went into overtime, which cost the city about $740 dollars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There was no report filed on this. It's standard to file a report on any investigation, and the department says that was an oversight that only came to its attention when looking into the story after questions from reporters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JON BROOKS\u003c/strong>: How unusual is it for Berkeley police to go into Oakland, to conduct an investigation in an area that is not under their jurisdiction?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>TRACEY TAYLOR\u003c/strong>: Crossing the border is fairly common and they don't necessarily always tell Oakland police they're coming in. They sometimes tell them out of courtesy and also as a matter of safety if they're chasing someone. In this case OPD wasn't alerted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JON BROOKS\u003c/strong>: Berkeleyside talked to Chief Meehan yesterday. What did he say?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>TRACEY TAYLOR\u003c/strong>: He explained, in his own words, about the incident. He was very keen to stress that what had happened was not preferential treatment, even though this has been cast in the media as preferential treatment. He said that what happened when they sent out officers to try and live-track his son’s phone would be something the department would have done for anybody in the city, that it was not unusual to respond to a stolen iPhone this way.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">\u003ca href=\"http://www.berkeleyside.com/2012/05/23/berkeley-police-chief-not-some-kind-of-preferential-treatment/#comment-537000078\">\u003cstrong>Berkeleyside readers comment\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> \u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>He stressed what the Berkeley Police Department had already said -- that he did not give the order for the search –- that a group of detectives were in a room with him, and one of the detective sergeants said, “let’s go find this phone.” Meehan said he went along for two reasons: first, because he had never personally taken part in tracking an iPhone using these apps that allow you to monitor the location, so he was interested to see it happening. And also because it was his personal iPhone that was being used to track his son’s iPhone. So he wanted to stay close to his phone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also said that he did not request a report because he was not the officer in charge of this particular investigation. And he did not know, until recently, that a report had not been filed – that this only came to light when the media started asking questions. BPD says it was an oversight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JON BROOKS\u003c/strong>: And what would you say the chief's attitude was toward this whole story?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>TRACEY TAYLOR\u003c/strong>: I would say he was fairly defiant, that he thought a storm had been created around this situation, when in fact it was a fairly straightforward, not atypical investigation, and that preferential treatment was not an issue here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JON BROOKS\u003c/strong>: How are people reacting in Berkeley to this episode?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>TRACEY TAYLOR\u003c/strong>: Well a lot of \u003ca href=\"http://www.berkeleyside.com/2012/05/23/berkeley-police-chief-not-some-kind-of-preferential-treatment/#comment-537000078\">Berkeleyside readers\u003c/a> think he should step down, that this is not acceptable behavior and it shows a poor sense of priorities sending officers on something like this, which is resources and time and money people don’t think should have been spent. Or people think he should at least apologize.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it's exacerbated by concern over the earlier incident in which Chief Meehan sent an officer to a reporter's house to ask him to change some things in an article. There are two independent agencies that have been hired by the city to look into that. One is from an agency brought in to analyze the Berkeley Police Department's media relations; the other is an investigation by a San Francisco law firm, hired by the city manager. That investigation is focusing on whether the chief broke any rules. That investigation is ongoing, and the city is not intending to make the report public, because it's considered a personnel matter. Both those investigations together will cost the city $50,000. I think that's informing a lot of the surprise and feeling about Chief Meehan right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JON BROOKS\u003c/strong> What was the view of Chief Meehan before these two incidents?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>TRACEY TAYLOR\u003c/strong>: These incidents aside, he's proved to be a popular chief. He's done a lot of community outreach, and if you did a survey, I think you'd find a lot of people are happy with him, for reasons not the least of which is that crime rates are down since he came on board. He's also talked at meetings about wanting to have a transparent department, and about improving crime data.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But within the department there's a lot of dissatisfaction and grumbling about his leadership and his decision making, on a level more wide-ranging than just the two incidents. We've heard from people within the department who say they're not happy with his leadership style, what they call his self-involvement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Having said that we should also point out that the police unions are currently renegotiating their contract right now, so one should take some of these things with a grain of salt.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Addendum\u003c/em>: From \u003ca href=\"http://www.berkeleyside.com/2012/05/23/berkeley-police-chief-not-some-kind-of-preferential-treatment/\">Berkeleyside\u003c/a> yesterday:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"On Tuesday, the BPD supplied Berkeleyside with examples of seven cases where anywhere between four and 11 police officers were assigned to track and locate iPhones or iPads.

Meehan Son's Stolen iPhone 052212\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On January 11, 2012, Chief Michael K. Meehan son’s iPhone was stolen at Berkeley High School. The stolen iPhone was equipped with tracking software, which was providing its general location in real time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chief Meehan showed his own phone with the in progress tracking of his son’s stolen phone to the BPD Property Crimes Detective Sergeant. Given the active signal of the stolen phone, the Detective Sergeant decided to take his team to try to locate it. As the signal was moving into the City of Oakland, the Detective Sergeant called the Drug Task Force (DTF) to ask for some additional assistance and members of that team offered to help. Chief Meehan did not order anyone to investigate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The team followed the signal from Berkeley into Oakland until the signal stopped updating its position. Members of BPD attempted to contact residents at several homes in the vicinity of the last known signal of the stolen phone. The area was 55th Street and San Pablo Avenue in North Oakland. No community members in that neighborhood were able to provide any useful information and the team ended the investigation. Four detectives (One Sergeant and 3 detectives) extended their shifts for approximately two hours each and were given overtime.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is common for BPD officers to actively investigate an in-progress tracking signal from a stolen electronic device. (e.g. Laptops, Smartphones and Tablets) These investigations can involve a Supervisor and multiple officers depending on the circumstances of the case and the location(s) of the signal(s).” (examples forthcoming)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No report was written, an oversight that came to our attention when researching your questions. The team did not call the City of Oakland Police Department (OPD), although this is a courtesy and not required.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>BPD has long recommended that community members use tracking software on their devices or load such software in order to support an investigation and the possible recovery of stolen property. This incident demonstrates the importance of safeguarding your property, a theme continually emphasized by the BPD.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is a feature on the BPD website - http://www.cityofberkeley.info/ContentDisplay.aspx?id=74160\u003cbr>\nSergeant Mary C.

And now another matter involving the chief has some Berkeleyites shaking their heads anew.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For an update, we turn to Tracey Taylor of KQED news associate Berkeleyside, which has been \u003ca href=\"http://www.berkeleyside.com/2012/05/23/berkeley-police-chief-not-some-kind-of-preferential-treatment/\">following the story\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Edited transcript...\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JON BROOKS\u003c/strong>: Over the last couple of days, whenever I tell anyone about this story, they seem to almost be in a state of disbelief. But the chief and the department are defending themselves and don't seem to think anything is unusual here. Tell us what happened...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>BERKELEYSIDE'S TRACEY TAYLOR\u003c/strong>: It emerged that on Jan 11 Berkeley Police Department Chief Michael Meehan took part in an investigation that involved sending 10 officers to Oakland to find his son's iPhone. He also went out on the call.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The incident started when his son turned up at the Berkeley police station just across the street from Berkeley High School, where he goes, to tell his father that his iPhone had been stolen. Chief Meehan had on his own phone a tracking device which one of the detectives was able to use to track the iPhone to a certain location in Oakland. The decision was made to send 10 officers to this residential block in Oakland to look for the phone. Meehan was present when the officers were knocking on doors -- in one block in Oakland, several officers knocked on doors to try to locate the phone, which was never found.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of the officers involved were from the drug task force, and they opted to come in and help on the investigation. And four of the officers involved, property crime detectives, went into overtime, which cost the city about $740 dollars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There was no report filed on this. It's standard to file a report on any investigation, and the department says that was an oversight that only came to its attention when looking into the story after questions from reporters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JON BROOKS\u003c/strong>: How unusual is it for Berkeley police to go into Oakland, to conduct an investigation in an area that is not under their jurisdiction?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>TRACEY TAYLOR\u003c/strong>: Crossing the border is fairly common and they don't necessarily always tell Oakland police they're coming in. They sometimes tell them out of courtesy and also as a matter of safety if they're chasing someone. In this case OPD wasn't alerted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JON BROOKS\u003c/strong>: Berkeleyside talked to Chief Meehan yesterday. What did he say?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>TRACEY TAYLOR\u003c/strong>: He explained, in his own words, about the incident. He was very keen to stress that what had happened was not preferential treatment, even though this has been cast in the media as preferential treatment. He said that what happened when they sent out officers to try and live-track his son’s phone would be something the department would have done for anybody in the city, that it was not unusual to respond to a stolen iPhone this way.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">\u003ca href=\"http://www.berkeleyside.com/2012/05/23/berkeley-police-chief-not-some-kind-of-preferential-treatment/#comment-537000078\">\u003cstrong>Berkeleyside readers comment\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> \u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>He stressed what the Berkeley Police Department had already said -- that he did not give the order for the search –- that a group of detectives were in a room with him, and one of the detective sergeants said, “let’s go find this phone.” Meehan said he went along for two reasons: first, because he had never personally taken part in tracking an iPhone using these apps that allow you to monitor the location, so he was interested to see it happening. And also because it was his personal iPhone that was being used to track his son’s iPhone. So he wanted to stay close to his phone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also said that he did not request a report because he was not the officer in charge of this particular investigation. And he did not know, until recently, that a report had not been filed – that this only came to light when the media started asking questions. BPD says it was an oversight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JON BROOKS\u003c/strong>: And what would you say the chief's attitude was toward this whole story?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>TRACEY TAYLOR\u003c/strong>: I would say he was fairly defiant, that he thought a storm had been created around this situation, when in fact it was a fairly straightforward, not atypical investigation, and that preferential treatment was not an issue here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JON BROOKS\u003c/strong>: How are people reacting in Berkeley to this episode?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>TRACEY TAYLOR\u003c/strong>: Well a lot of \u003ca href=\"http://www.berkeleyside.com/2012/05/23/berkeley-police-chief-not-some-kind-of-preferential-treatment/#comment-537000078\">Berkeleyside readers\u003c/a> think he should step down, that this is not acceptable behavior and it shows a poor sense of priorities sending officers on something like this, which is resources and time and money people don’t think should have been spent. Or people think he should at least apologize.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it's exacerbated by concern over the earlier incident in which Chief Meehan sent an officer to a reporter's house to ask him to change some things in an article. There are two independent agencies that have been hired by the city to look into that. One is from an agency brought in to analyze the Berkeley Police Department's media relations; the other is an investigation by a San Francisco law firm, hired by the city manager. That investigation is focusing on whether the chief broke any rules. That investigation is ongoing, and the city is not intending to make the report public, because it's considered a personnel matter. Both those investigations together will cost the city $50,000. I think that's informing a lot of the surprise and feeling about Chief Meehan right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JON BROOKS\u003c/strong> What was the view of Chief Meehan before these two incidents?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>TRACEY TAYLOR\u003c/strong>: These incidents aside, he's proved to be a popular chief. He's done a lot of community outreach, and if you did a survey, I think you'd find a lot of people are happy with him, for reasons not the least of which is that crime rates are down since he came on board. He's also talked at meetings about wanting to have a transparent department, and about improving crime data.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But within the department there's a lot of dissatisfaction and grumbling about his leadership and his decision making, on a level more wide-ranging than just the two incidents. We've heard from people within the department who say they're not happy with his leadership style, what they call his self-involvement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Having said that we should also point out that the police unions are currently renegotiating their contract right now, so one should take some of these things with a grain of salt.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Addendum\u003c/em>: From \u003ca href=\"http://www.berkeleyside.com/2012/05/23/berkeley-police-chief-not-some-kind-of-preferential-treatment/\">Berkeleyside\u003c/a> yesterday:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Meehan Son's Stolen iPhone 052212\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On January 11, 2012, Chief Michael K. Meehan son’s iPhone was stolen at Berkeley High School. The stolen iPhone was equipped with tracking software, which was providing its general location in real time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chief Meehan showed his own phone with the in progress tracking of his son’s stolen phone to the BPD Property Crimes Detective Sergeant. Given the active signal of the stolen phone, the Detective Sergeant decided to take his team to try to locate it. As the signal was moving into the City of Oakland, the Detective Sergeant called the Drug Task Force (DTF) to ask for some additional assistance and members of that team offered to help. Chief Meehan did not order anyone to investigate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The team followed the signal from Berkeley into Oakland until the signal stopped updating its position. Members of BPD attempted to contact residents at several homes in the vicinity of the last known signal of the stolen phone. The area was 55th Street and San Pablo Avenue in North Oakland. No community members in that neighborhood were able to provide any useful information and the team ended the investigation. Four detectives (One Sergeant and 3 detectives) extended their shifts for approximately two hours each and were given overtime.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is common for BPD officers to actively investigate an in-progress tracking signal from a stolen electronic device. (e.g. Laptops, Smartphones and Tablets) These investigations can involve a Supervisor and multiple officers depending on the circumstances of the case and the location(s) of the signal(s).” (examples forthcoming)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No report was written, an oversight that came to our attention when researching your questions. The team did not call the City of Oakland Police Department (OPD), although this is a courtesy and not required.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>BPD has long recommended that community members use tracking software on their devices or load such software in order to support an investigation and the possible recovery of stolen property. This incident demonstrates the importance of safeguarding your property, a theme continually emphasized by the BPD.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is a feature on the BPD website - http://www.cityofberkeley.info/ContentDisplay.aspx?id=74160\u003cbr>\nSergeant Mary C.

"content": "\u003cp>Regarding the strange doings in Berkeley concerning Police Chief Michael Meehan and Oakland Tribune reporter Doug Oakley, Frances Dinkelspiel of our news associate Berkeleyside broke it all down for KQED’s Sarah Baughn this morning. Here’s the interview…\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>On Thursday Mar 8 there was a very contentious meeting about the way Berkeley police responded to a recent murder. After this meeting, Oakland Tribune reporter Doug Oakley wrote a story in which he wrote that Chief Meehan said he apologized for the police response to that killing. Meehan saw the story online around midnight and got very angry because he said he did not apologize for the police response, only for the way he communicated after the murder. \u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">\u003ca href=\"http://www.berkeleyside.com/2012/03/10/in-middle-of-the-night-police-chief-demands-changes/#comments\">\u003cstrong>Berkeleyside user comments on the story\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>So he tried to call Doug Oakley, send him emails asking for a correction. But when he couldn’t get him, he sent his public information officer, Sgt. Mary Kusmiss, over to Oakley’s house at 12:45 a.m. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sgt Kusmiss knocked on Doug Oakley’s door, rousing him and his wife. Oakley went to the door and was completely bewildered to see Sgt Kusmiss there. He immediately thought that something had happened to a family member or that he was under arrest. Kusmiss informed him that the chief was very upset about the story and asked him if he would make some corrections to it. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakley explained nothing could be done until the morning, when Tribune editors got to the paper, but said he would withdraw the statement that Meehan had apologized forthe police response to the incident and instead say that Meehan would apologize for his communications with the community. So Oakley went back to bed and starting at 7 a.m., Meehan once again started to telephone Oakley and send him emails asking when the changes to the story would be made. Throughout much of the day Oakley and Chief Meehan had these communications, in which Meehan was pushing him to change other aspects of the story. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Doug Oakley at first didn’t think much of this incident, but as he pondered it, he began to feel very intimidated by the police actions.

Here’s the interview…\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>On Thursday Mar 8 there was a very contentious meeting about the way Berkeley police responded to a recent murder. After this meeting, Oakland Tribune reporter Doug Oakley wrote a story in which he wrote that Chief Meehan said he apologized for the police response to that killing. Meehan saw the story online around midnight and got very angry because he said he did not apologize for the police response, only for the way he communicated after the murder. \u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">\u003ca href=\"http://www.berkeleyside.com/2012/03/10/in-middle-of-the-night-police-chief-demands-changes/#comments\">\u003cstrong>Berkeleyside user comments on the story\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>So he tried to call Doug Oakley, send him emails asking for a correction. But when he couldn’t get him, he sent his public information officer, Sgt. Mary Kusmiss, over to Oakley’s house at 12:45 a.m. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sgt Kusmiss knocked on Doug Oakley’s door, rousing him and his wife. Oakley went to the door and was completely bewildered to see Sgt Kusmiss there. He immediately thought that something had happened to a family member or that he was under arrest. Kusmiss informed him that the chief was very upset about the story and asked him if he would make some corrections to it. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakley explained nothing could be done until the morning, when Tribune editors got to the paper, but said he would withdraw the statement that Meehan had apologized forthe police response to the incident and instead say that Meehan would apologize for his communications with the community. So Oakley went back to bed and starting at 7 a.m., Meehan once again started to telephone Oakley and send him emails asking when the changes to the story would be made. Throughout much of the day Oakley and Chief Meehan had these communications, in which Meehan was pushing him to change other aspects of the story. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Doug Oakley at first didn’t think much of this incident, but as he pondered it, he began to feel very intimidated by the police actions. He felt very upset that Sgt Kusmiss had come to see him in the middle of the night. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since this happened over the weekend, the city of Berkeley hasn’t quite figured out its response yet. Both Meehan and interim City Manager Christine Daniel have apologized profusely for Meehan’s actions, and it seems Meehan does truly seem remorseful. However many people are upset about this, including the rank and file of the police department, and they’ve issued a statement saying they were upset. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s important to note that prior to this people felt very good about Chief Meehan.
