"content": "\u003cp>http://www.kqed.org/.stream/anon/radio/tcrmag/2014/02/2014-02-07b-tcrmag.mp3\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti took office last summer and wasted no time setting a different tone from the man he replaced, Antonio Villaraigosa. The former city councilman is L.A.'s first Jewish mayor -- but he's also half Latino and fluent in Spanish. The former Rhodes scholar can dance salsa, plays jazz piano and is a bit of a computer geek who designed a mobile app to improve city services. We sit down with Mayor Garcetti in his office to talk about his efforts to make local government more efficient.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>ERIC GARCETTI:\u003c/strong> The city and the city government in general are a few decades behind in terms of technology, in terms of management culture and leadership development. We have some superstars and some great success stories. Look at the Los Angeles Police Department. We're now the safest big city in America in terms of violent crime per capita, unthinkable 10, 15 years ago. So, I've brought kind of a different management approach. I re-interviewed all of our general managers. I didn't just tell them you're going to have the job no matter what, made some changes, and I'm really looking at people setting numerical goals that we can measure. The people can hold me accountable, I can hold my managers accountable, and if we can make customer service and technology hallmarks of what a modern city government looks like, I think it can inspire not only Los Angeles, but the nation about how a city can be run.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SCOTT SHAFER:\u003c/strong> As you know, your fellow mayor in San Jose, Chuck Reed, is promoting a ballot measure that would give cities and local governments more flexibility in changing pension and retirement health benefits and so on. Do you support that measure or that approach, at least?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>GARCETTI:\u003c/strong> Well, I understand why Chuck would do that and I think a lot of cities have felt hamstrung. Really the combination of management and labor together have too often put their head in the sand and pretended there wasn't a problem. We took a different approach here and we've been very successful, which is to actually sit down and negotiate and to face the music. We made the biggest change in pension reform in the country of any big city, going from 2 to 6 percent of people’s salaries for their benefits to up to 11 percent. For our sworn personnel, fire and police, we put something on the ballot, successfully passed that without their opposition. So, I think when you can engage unions to do that. … At the Department of Water and Power, we just had a historic contract that I helped negotiate that established a much more sustainable brand-new pension tier. That’s probably a better approach because the lawsuits aren't just from unions. But individuals can sue when you make these changes and you can get caught in the courts for a long time. So, I think it’s really important for leaders to just tell the truth, to be blunt, and to demand that everybody come to the table -- but at the end of the day, do that together.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SHAFER:\u003c/strong> Speaking of truth, just a few weeks ago the Los Angeles 20/20 Commission released a report called “A Time for Truth.” It was chaired, as you know, by former U.S. Commerce Secretary Mickey Cantor, and it was very pessimistic. It found a city in decline, mired in poverty, failing schools, a long list of problems. What's your reaction to that report and its characterization of Los Angeles?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>GARCETTI:\u003c/strong> Well, I appreciate some of the criticisms. They are similar to some of things I've been saying that we need to fix. I respectfully tend to lead with my optimism, rather than my pessimism, and I think the proof is in the numbers. We had more people visit Los Angeles than ever before last year as tourists. We have more people that live here than ever before in our history. We have more students studying here than ever before in three top-25 universities, the only city in the nation to have that. So, when you look at the proof, this is clearly not a city in decline. But we have real problems that we have to face. We have to continue a path of fiscal sustainability with pension reform and, looking at our salaries and benefits, we have to make sure that we bridge the poverty gap that exists in too many neighborhoods, which is a strong priority of mine. I agree with the report about what we have to fix.

The former city councilman is L.A.'s first Jewish mayor -- but he's also half Latino and fluent in Spanish. The former Rhodes scholar can dance salsa, plays jazz piano and is a bit of a computer geek who designed a mobile app to improve city services. We sit down with Mayor Garcetti in his office to talk about his efforts to make local government more efficient.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>ERIC GARCETTI:\u003c/strong> The city and the city government in general are a few decades behind in terms of technology, in terms of management culture and leadership development. We have some superstars and some great success stories. Look at the Los Angeles Police Department. We're now the safest big city in America in terms of violent crime per capita, unthinkable 10, 15 years ago. So, I've brought kind of a different management approach. I re-interviewed all of our general managers. I didn't just tell them you're going to have the job no matter what, made some changes, and I'm really looking at people setting numerical goals that we can measure. The people can hold me accountable, I can hold my managers accountable, and if we can make customer service and technology hallmarks of what a modern city government looks like, I think it can inspire not only Los Angeles, but the nation about how a city can be run.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SCOTT SHAFER:\u003c/strong> As you know, your fellow mayor in San Jose, Chuck Reed, is promoting a ballot measure that would give cities and local governments more flexibility in changing pension and retirement health benefits and so on. Do you support that measure or that approach, at least?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>GARCETTI:\u003c/strong> Well, I understand why Chuck would do that and I think a lot of cities have felt hamstrung. Really the combination of management and labor together have too often put their head in the sand and pretended there wasn't a problem. We took a different approach here and we've been very successful, which is to actually sit down and negotiate and to face the music. We made the biggest change in pension reform in the country of any big city, going from 2 to 6 percent of people’s salaries for their benefits to up to 11 percent. For our sworn personnel, fire and police, we put something on the ballot, successfully passed that without their opposition. So, I think when you can engage unions to do that. … At the Department of Water and Power, we just had a historic contract that I helped negotiate that established a much more sustainable brand-new pension tier. That’s probably a better approach because the lawsuits aren't just from unions. But individuals can sue when you make these changes and you can get caught in the courts for a long time. So, I think it’s really important for leaders to just tell the truth, to be blunt, and to demand that everybody come to the table -- but at the end of the day, do that together.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

It found a city in decline, mired in poverty, failing schools, a long list of problems. What's your reaction to that report and its characterization of Los Angeles?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>GARCETTI:\u003c/strong> Well, I appreciate some of the criticisms. They are similar to some of things I've been saying that we need to fix. I respectfully tend to lead with my optimism, rather than my pessimism, and I think the proof is in the numbers. We had more people visit Los Angeles than ever before last year as tourists. We have more people that live here than ever before in our history. We have more students studying here than ever before in three top-25 universities, the only city in the nation to have that. So, when you look at the proof, this is clearly not a city in decline. But we have real problems that we have to face. We have to continue a path of fiscal sustainability with pension reform and, looking at our salaries and benefits, we have to make sure that we bridge the poverty gap that exists in too many neighborhoods, which is a strong priority of mine. I agree with the report about what we have to fix. I look forward to the second report, which will give us some suggestions more than just the diagnosis. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SHAFER:\u003c/strong> I wonder what you make of San Francisco.

Residents who awakened in the predawn darkness to see flames approaching were ordered to evacuate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Television images showed several structures engulfed in flames in a neighborhood abutting Angeles National Forest, just north of the San Gabriel Valley community of Glendora. Homes are nestled in canyons and among rugged ridges that made an accurate assessment difficult.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At least 125 acres of dry brush was charred in the wilderness area about 25 miles northeast of downtown Los Angeles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police said they questioned three persons of interest detained near Colby Trail, where the fire was believed to have started.

The extremely dry Santa Anas blow downslope and can push fires out of the mountains and into communities below. The area, which has been historically dry, has been buffeted by the winds which have raised temperatures into the 80s. The Santa Anas typically begin in the fall and last through winter into spring. A wet winter reduces fire risk, but the whole state is experiencing historically dry conditions.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\"> Glendora police said officers were going door to door ordering residents of the city of 50,000 to leave. \u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>TV news helicopters spotted embers igniting palm trees in residential yards as firefighters with hoses beat back flames lapping at the edges of homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Glendora police said officers were going door to door ordering residents of the city of 50,000 to leave. Citrus College, located in the heart of Glendora, canceled classes for the day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several schools were closed. The Glendora Unified School District closed Goddard Middle School, which was being used as a fire department command post. District spokeswoman Michelle Hunter said 900 students attend the school, which is near the fire and within the evacuation area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More than 500 firefighters were on the scene. The Los Angeles County Fire Department deployed seven engines and three helicopters to the fire, which was reported around 5:50 a.m. (PST) and was growing rapidly. Officials added to the firefighting aircraft with a water-dropping Super Scooper plane.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ash rained down on the city, said Jonathan Lambert, 31, general manager of Classic Coffee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're underneath a giant cloud of smoke,\" he said. \"It's throwing quite the eerie shadow over a lot of Glendora.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Resident Eric Black told KCAL-TV that he is preparing to evacuate, but he's going to try to protect his home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're loading up the motorhome right now.

Some of the most extreme gusts reported by the National Weather Service topped 70 mph.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These offshore winds also raise temperatures to summerlike levels. Many areas have enjoyed temperatures well into the 80s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California is also under the influence of a persistent upper-level ridge of high pressure anchored off its north coast that has also kept the region generally warm, dry and clear.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Residents who awakened in the predawn darkness to see flames approaching were ordered to evacuate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Television images showed several structures engulfed in flames in a neighborhood abutting Angeles National Forest, just north of the San Gabriel Valley community of Glendora. Homes are nestled in canyons and among rugged ridges that made an accurate assessment difficult.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At least 125 acres of dry brush was charred in the wilderness area about 25 miles northeast of downtown Los Angeles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police said they questioned three persons of interest detained near Colby Trail, where the fire was believed to have started. Sheriff's Sgt. Raymond Roth stressed that they were not suspects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The notorious \u003ca href=\"http://meteora.ucsd.edu/cap/santa_ana.html\" target=\"_blank\">Santa Anas\u003c/a>, linked to the spread of Southern California's worst wildfires, picked up at daybreak. The extremely dry Santa Anas blow downslope and can push fires out of the mountains and into communities below. The area, which has been historically dry, has been buffeted by the winds which have raised temperatures into the 80s. The Santa Anas typically begin in the fall and last through winter into spring. A wet winter reduces fire risk, but the whole state is experiencing historically dry conditions.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\"> Glendora police said officers were going door to door ordering residents of the city of 50,000 to leave. \u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>TV news helicopters spotted embers igniting palm trees in residential yards as firefighters with hoses beat back flames lapping at the edges of homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Glendora police said officers were going door to door ordering residents of the city of 50,000 to leave. Citrus College, located in the heart of Glendora, canceled classes for the day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several schools were closed. The Glendora Unified School District closed Goddard Middle School, which was being used as a fire department command post. District spokeswoman Michelle Hunter said 900 students attend the school, which is near the fire and within the evacuation area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More than 500 firefighters were on the scene. The Los Angeles County Fire Department deployed seven engines and three helicopters to the fire, which was reported around 5:50 a.m. (PST) and was growing rapidly. Officials added to the firefighting aircraft with a water-dropping Super Scooper plane.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ash rained down on the city, said Jonathan Lambert, 31, general manager of Classic Coffee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're underneath a giant cloud of smoke,\" he said. \"It's throwing quite the eerie shadow over a lot of Glendora.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Resident Eric Black told KCAL-TV that he is preparing to evacuate, but he's going to try to protect his home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're loading up the motorhome right now.

He had been using his garden hose to wet the brush around his house. \"I'm going to stay as long as I can to try to protect.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The last catastrophic fire in the San Gabriel Mountains broke out in 2009 and burned for months.

Some of the most extreme gusts reported by the National Weather Service topped 70 mph.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These offshore winds also raise temperatures to summerlike levels. Many areas have enjoyed temperatures well into the 80s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California is also under the influence of a persistent upper-level ridge of high pressure anchored off its north coast that has also kept the region generally warm, dry and clear.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

But the study may help inform decisions being made by local and state officials about how to regulate medical marijuana dispensaries. \u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>And from the \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-0928-marijuana-dispensaries-20110921,0,7776989.story\">Los Angeles Times\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>The researchers acknowledge that the results are subject to a large margin of error, so the increase in crime within less than a third of a mile could range from as low as 5.4% to as high as 114%.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"http://www.eastbayexpress.com/LegalizationNation/archives/2011/09/20/rand-study-crime-increases-when-dispensaries-close\">East Bay Express\u003c/a> provides further caution: \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\n“The study’s validity is limited by the length of time studied — just 21 days — and the “noise” in the data. That’s because crime on any given block is actually pretty rare, Jacobson said, so tiny changes like one or two incidents can make the numbers look bigger than they are. “The estimated increase should be interpreted with some caution,” the paper states.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Still, even with that potentially wide variation, the fact that crime was found to increase, not decrease, when dispensaries closed is at odds with the view of medical marijuana opponents like the California Police Chiefs Association. The organization’s Task Force on Marijuana Dispensaries wrote a \u003ca href=\"http://www.californiapolicechiefs.org/files/marijuana_files/files/MarijuanaDispensariesWhitePaper_042209.pdf\">2009 white paper\u003c/a> (pdf) that argued the following, in a section called “Ancillary Crimes”:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cp>Throughout California, many violent crimes have been committed that can be traced to the proliferation of marijuana dispensaries. These include armed robberies and murders. For example, as far back as 2002, two home occupants were shot in Willits, California in the course of a home invasion robbery targeting medical marijuana.32 And, a series of four armed robberies of a marijuana dispensary in Santa Barbara, California occurred through August 10, 2006, in which thirty dollars and fifteen baggies filled with marijuana on display were taken by force and removed from the premises in the latest holdup. The owner said he failed to report the first three robberies because “medical marijuana is such a controversial issue.” \u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The report goes on to describe other violent crimes related to medical marijuana, and discusses a money laundering and organized crime connection to boot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that evidence is anecdotal. The RAND study’s lead author, Mireille Jacobsen, says, the report is “the first systematic, independent analysis” of the claim that dispensaries actually attract crime. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An increase in crime resulting from the sudden \u003cem>lack\u003c/em> of a dispensary does seem counter-intuitive. Why might it occur? From the Times again: \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>The researchers did not try to draw conclusions on why crime increased, but offered the hypothesis that dispensaries may heighten security in the areas around them because they employ cameras and guards, increase late-night foot traffic, replace illicit street sales and draw heavier police patrols.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>I asked KQED’s Michael Montgomery, who has \u003ca href=\"http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/the-pot-republic/\">covered the medical marijuana issue\u003c/a> for a long time, what he thought of the study. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Some opponents of the legalization of medical marijuana have argued that outlets like dispensaries that distribute the product become a magnet for crime,” he said. “However, there’s never been a lot of data to back up that assertion. So the significance of the RAND study is that we now have serious data arguing just the opposite, that outlets that legally distribute marijuana have not created an increase in crime.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Montgomery also says the report’s findings corroborate what he’s been told over the years by police officers in San Francisco and Oakland. “They say the establishment of dispensaries has actually led to a decrease in crime. It’s true there have been robberies, killings related to dispensary operators, but if you compare that to crime associated with liquor stores, the argument is, it’s much lower.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>KQED’s Mina Kim asked the Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office for a response to the RAND study. And surprise: They are not impressed. The email response: \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Concerning the City of Los Angeles, the Rand Study is deeply flawed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Study is the polar opposite of a scientific and measured response to verified data. It relies exclusively upon faulty assumptions, conjecture, irrelevant data, untested measurements, and incomplete results. The conclusions are therefore highly suspect and unreliable. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For confirmation, simply ask the residents in areas where dispensaries were or are located. In the end, random numbers do not tell the story, people do. Specifically, some of the shortcomings in the Study include the following:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1. The City Attorney sent a cautionary letter to illegal dispensaries on May 4, 2010. The Study considered 10 days before and after June 7, 2010, which was the effective date of the City’s new ordinance. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. The 10 day time period before and after the June 7, 2010 date assumes without any substantiation that the dispensaries that received the May 4 letter remained open until June 7, closed on that date, and remained closed for 10 days. It is more likely that some closed in May, some re-opened during the interval of the Study, and some did not close at all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. The faulty assumption that the dispensaries closed immediately on June 7 and stayed closed for 10 days further fails to take into account the fact that in any period of shutting down, dispensaries will often have fire sales, internal fights among their participants, and offer incentives in order to dispose of their product. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. Because of the difficulties and fire sale promotions that arise when any business closes, it is quite possible that member in-fighting, increased traffic to the dispensaries for bargains, and disgruntled clientele who found the dispensaries in a state of transition, accounted for the increase in crime in the 10 days following June 7, 2010. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. It is not credible to suggest that security guards at illegal dispensaries foster a sense of neighborhood safety, as the common practice of security guards at dispensaries is to remain on the dispensary premises, in contrast to security personnel hired by a community who are deliberately dispersed throughout the area.\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Update Wednesday p.m.\u003c/em> Lead author Mireille Jacobsen answers the city attorney’s critique with this:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\nWe agree with the City Attorney’s Office’s comments 1-3 about the June 7th date not binding for all dispensaries. In fact we would be surprised if some did not close early and others did not defy the date. The early and late closures should add noise to the analysis and actually downward bias our estimates, i.e. make the increase look too small. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example consider a place that closed early (in May). At that location, nothing happens on June 7th, so under this methodology we would measure the impact of closure as zero. The more “early” or “late” closures there are, the more our estimates are understated. Our assumption is simply that a large share of dispensaries closed on June 7th, and to the extent that they did not, our estimates represent a lower bound on the true effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As some evidence for the noise introduced by the non-binding date, Appendix Table A.4. recodes known defiers (based on LA Times and LA Weekly reports) as open instead of closed. These estimates are slightly more precisely estimated and in some cases larger in magnitude. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Points 3 and 4 seem to suggest low compliance with the closure orders combined with fire sales or other activities in the 10 days after June 7th The combination (low compliance + firesales or in fighting) increased crime. By the City Attorney’s office’s own accounts, compliance with the June 7th closure date was quite high, albeit not perfect, so these arguments seem hard to square. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Regarding point 5, we never state or “suggest that security guards at illegal dispensaries foster a sense of neighborhood safety.” Rather one hypothesis for our results is that security guards and cameras at dispensaries deter some crime, which may indirectly benefit their neighbors. As an example, someone may be more likely to break into a car in front of a vacant storefront than a dispensary with a security guard or camera. \u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.eastbayexpress.com/LegalizationNation/archives/2011/09/20/rand-study-crime-increases-when-dispensaries-close\">RAND Study: Crime Increases When Dispensaries Close\u003c/a> (East Bay Express)\n\u003c/li>\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-0928-marijuana-dispensaries-20110921,0,7776989.story\">Rand study finds \u003cem>less\u003c/em> crime near pot dispensaries\u003c/a> (LA Times)\n\u003c/li>\u003c/ul>\n\n",

But the study may help inform decisions being made by local and state officials about how to regulate medical marijuana dispensaries. \u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>And from the \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-0928-marijuana-dispensaries-20110921,0,7776989.story\">Los Angeles Times\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>The researchers acknowledge that the results are subject to a large margin of error, so the increase in crime within less than a third of a mile could range from as low as 5.4% to as high as 114%.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"http://www.eastbayexpress.com/LegalizationNation/archives/2011/09/20/rand-study-crime-increases-when-dispensaries-close\">East Bay Express\u003c/a> provides further caution: \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\n“The study’s validity is limited by the length of time studied — just 21 days — and the “noise” in the data. That’s because crime on any given block is actually pretty rare, Jacobson said, so tiny changes like one or two incidents can make the numbers look bigger than they are. “The estimated increase should be interpreted with some caution,” the paper states.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Still, even with that potentially wide variation, the fact that crime was found to increase, not decrease, when dispensaries closed is at odds with the view of medical marijuana opponents like the California Police Chiefs Association. The organization’s Task Force on Marijuana Dispensaries wrote a \u003ca href=\"http://www.californiapolicechiefs.org/files/marijuana_files/files/MarijuanaDispensariesWhitePaper_042209.pdf\">2009 white paper\u003c/a> (pdf) that argued the following, in a section called “Ancillary Crimes”:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cp>Throughout California, many violent crimes have been committed that can be traced to the proliferation of marijuana dispensaries. These include armed robberies and murders. For example, as far back as 2002, two home occupants were shot in Willits, California in the course of a home invasion robbery targeting medical marijuana.32 And, a series of four armed robberies of a marijuana dispensary in Santa Barbara, California occurred through August 10, 2006, in which thirty dollars and fifteen baggies filled with marijuana on display were taken by force and removed from the premises in the latest holdup. The owner said he failed to report the first three robberies because “medical marijuana is such a controversial issue.” \u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The report goes on to describe other violent crimes related to medical marijuana, and discusses a money laundering and organized crime connection to boot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that evidence is anecdotal. The RAND study’s lead author, Mireille Jacobsen, says, the report is “the first systematic, independent analysis” of the claim that dispensaries actually attract crime. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An increase in crime resulting from the sudden \u003cem>lack\u003c/em> of a dispensary does seem counter-intuitive. Why might it occur? From the Times again: \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>The researchers did not try to draw conclusions on why crime increased, but offered the hypothesis that dispensaries may heighten security in the areas around them because they employ cameras and guards, increase late-night foot traffic, replace illicit street sales and draw heavier police patrols.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>I asked KQED’s Michael Montgomery, who has \u003ca href=\"http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/the-pot-republic/\">covered the medical marijuana issue\u003c/a> for a long time, what he thought of the study. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Some opponents of the legalization of medical marijuana have argued that outlets like dispensaries that distribute the product become a magnet for crime,” he said. “However, there’s never been a lot of data to back up that assertion. So the significance of the RAND study is that we now have serious data arguing just the opposite, that outlets that legally distribute marijuana have not created an increase in crime.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Montgomery also says the report’s findings corroborate what he’s been told over the years by police officers in San Francisco and Oakland. “They say the establishment of dispensaries has actually led to a decrease in crime. It’s true there have been robberies, killings related to dispensary operators, but if you compare that to crime associated with liquor stores, the argument is, it’s much lower.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>KQED’s Mina Kim asked the Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office for a response to the RAND study. And surprise: They are not impressed. The email response: \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Concerning the City of Los Angeles, the Rand Study is deeply flawed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Study is the polar opposite of a scientific and measured response to verified data. It relies exclusively upon faulty assumptions, conjecture, irrelevant data, untested measurements, and incomplete results. The conclusions are therefore highly suspect and unreliable. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For confirmation, simply ask the residents in areas where dispensaries were or are located. In the end, random numbers do not tell the story, people do. Specifically, some of the shortcomings in the Study include the following:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1. The City Attorney sent a cautionary letter to illegal dispensaries on May 4, 2010. The Study considered 10 days before and after June 7, 2010, which was the effective date of the City’s new ordinance. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. The 10 day time period before and after the June 7, 2010 date assumes without any substantiation that the dispensaries that received the May 4 letter remained open until June 7, closed on that date, and remained closed for 10 days. It is more likely that some closed in May, some re-opened during the interval of the Study, and some did not close at all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. The faulty assumption that the dispensaries closed immediately on June 7 and stayed closed for 10 days further fails to take into account the fact that in any period of shutting down, dispensaries will often have fire sales, internal fights among their participants, and offer incentives in order to dispose of their product. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. Because of the difficulties and fire sale promotions that arise when any business closes, it is quite possible that member in-fighting, increased traffic to the dispensaries for bargains, and disgruntled clientele who found the dispensaries in a state of transition, accounted for the increase in crime in the 10 days following June 7, 2010. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. It is not credible to suggest that security guards at illegal dispensaries foster a sense of neighborhood safety, as the common practice of security guards at dispensaries is to remain on the dispensary premises, in contrast to security personnel hired by a community who are deliberately dispersed throughout the area.\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In fact we would be surprised if some did not close early and others did not defy the date. The early and late closures should add noise to the analysis and actually downward bias our estimates, i.e. make the increase look too small. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example consider a place that closed early (in May). At that location, nothing happens on June 7th, so under this methodology we would measure the impact of closure as zero. The more “early” or “late” closures there are, the more our estimates are understated. Our assumption is simply that a large share of dispensaries closed on June 7th, and to the extent that they did not, our estimates represent a lower bound on the true effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As some evidence for the noise introduced by the non-binding date, Appendix Table A.4. recodes known defiers (based on LA Times and LA Weekly reports) as open instead of closed. These estimates are slightly more precisely estimated and in some cases larger in magnitude. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Points 3 and 4 seem to suggest low compliance with the closure orders combined with fire sales or other activities in the 10 days after June 7th The combination (low compliance + firesales or in fighting) increased crime. By the City Attorney’s office’s own accounts, compliance with the June 7th closure date was quite high, albeit not perfect, so these arguments seem hard to square. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Regarding point 5, we never state or “suggest that security guards at illegal dispensaries foster a sense of neighborhood safety.” Rather one hypothesis for our results is that security guards and cameras at dispensaries deter some crime, which may indirectly benefit their neighbors. As an example, someone may be more likely to break into a car in front of a vacant storefront than a dispensary with a security guard or camera. \u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.eastbayexpress.com/LegalizationNation/archives/2011/09/20/rand-study-crime-increases-when-dispensaries-close\">RAND Study: Crime Increases When Dispensaries Close\u003c/a> (East Bay Express)\n\u003c/li>\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-0928-marijuana-dispensaries-20110921,0,7776989.story\">Rand study finds \u003cem>less\u003c/em> crime near pot dispensaries\u003c/a> (LA Times)\n\u003c/li>\u003c/ul>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

After a new police transparency law unsealed scores of internal affairs files, our reporters set out to examine these cases and the shadow world of police discipline. On Our Watch brings listeners into the rooms where officers are questioned and witnesses are interrogated to find out who this system is really protecting. Is it the officers, or the public they've sworn to serve?",
