The figures on police stops include when officers pull over a car, arrest or detain someone on the street, or contact a person who agrees to answer questions about an investigation.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/High-tides-bring-S-F-Bay-Area-flooding-4112613.php\">High tides bring S.F. Bay Area flooding\u003c/a> (SF Chronicle)\u003cbr>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp> On Wednesday, 24 hours before the highest high tides, streets in Mill Valley were flooded and beaches in San Francisco and the Peninsula were already inundated. Highway 1 near Highway 101 in Marin was closed to traffic.

Grady \u003ca href=\"http://oaklandlocal.com/article/oakland-council-gives-alan-bluefords-family-redacted-police-report-amid-protests\">attended the city council meeting\u003c/a> last night and provided a blow by blow of what occurred. Edited transcript...\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003cstrong>OAKLAND LOCAL'S BARBARA GRADY\u003c/strong> Last night, as the City Council was getting ready to meet, a large number of people showed up. Some had marched from another place. Many were wearing tee shirts that said \"Justice for Alan Blueford.\" And there were supporters of the family who have been asking for information on his death and the circumstances that led to the police shooting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The meeting started and most people were not allowed in the room. As soon as most of the seats were full on the ground floor, City Hall employees closed the doors and there was a lot of commotion and people upset about not being allowed in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The council closed off the balcony and was not allowing people to sit up there. There appeared to still be a few seats on the ground floor but they were saying it was full and shutting out the remaining people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The people who came to this meeting said beforehand that their intention was to keep talking during the public comment period until their demands for information were answered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The public comment period started and a lot of people signed up to speak and asked for the same thing – information about the night of Alan Blueford's death. About 67 people signed up to speak.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The speakers were kind of reasonable, but behind them was loud and boisterous chanting. So a speaker would be at the podium and behind them was a lot of 'no justice no peace.'\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alan Blueford's mother was the most moving. She said this is my baby, this is my son, he's not coming back. She wanted answers. It's hard to hear that. And she was upset that the council wasn't responding. The council isn't supposed to really answer during the public comment period. But she was saying this is my baby, he's gone, and you're just sitting there looking the other way not doing anything, because they were sitting there stone silent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Finally, Jane Brunner spoke and said ,\"Well what about speakers who were kept out of the room? Can we let them back in?\" Because part of what they were chanting was that people were closed out of a public meeting. She broke the ice of councilmembers finally speaking.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The meeting accelerated, more people speaking in louder voices and demanding language. It was like an hour and ten minutes into the meeting, and Larry Reid, the council president, suddenly stood up and in kind of a huff said okay, okay you can have my copy of the report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He walked over holding this inch-thick document and handed it to Alan Blueford's father, who was speaking at that time. People were clearly surprised by that. He accepted it and was kind of silent, the crowd kept chanting, not realizing what had happened. Then people realized, that in essence that was what they werea asking for. So people kind of filed out after that, but not quietly.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the meeting, Grady reported, Alan Blueford's father said he wasn't satisfied with the release of the report because so much of it was redacted. John Burris, the family's attorney, said it was a good first step, but that he and the family need to see a final report.\n\n\u003c/p>\n",

They had demanded a copy of the police report.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Last night, the family got that police report, but only after a raucous Oakland City Council meeting that culminated in Council President Larry Reid walking over to Blueford's father and handing it to him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Oakland Police Department has posted the report, and \u003ca href=\"http://www2.oaklandnet.com/oakca1/groups/police/documents/report/oak037957.pdf\">you can read it here\u003c/a>, but it's highly redacted, and the family says it will not satisfy their demand for the police account of what happened.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The meeting last night was highly emotional, as supporters of the Blueford family voiced their displeasure one-by-one during the public comment period. More than a hundred people were prevented from entering the chamber, according to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/default/article/New-rules-limit-crowd-at-Oakland-meeting-3914128.php\">San Francisco Chronicle\u003c/a>, due to new rules instituted after a raucous crowd protesting the Blueford shooting at a previous council meeting forced the council to adjourn early.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here's \u003ca href=\"http://bcove.me/dobvl3h4\">video\u003c/a> from the Bay Area News Group of Alan Blueford's mother, Jeralynn, lambasting the council last night for the lack of information that's been released about the incident..\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Grady \u003ca href=\"http://oaklandlocal.com/article/oakland-council-gives-alan-bluefords-family-redacted-police-report-amid-protests\">attended the city council meeting\u003c/a> last night and provided a blow by blow of what occurred. Edited transcript...\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003cstrong>OAKLAND LOCAL'S BARBARA GRADY\u003c/strong> Last night, as the City Council was getting ready to meet, a large number of people showed up. Some had marched from another place. Many were wearing tee shirts that said \"Justice for Alan Blueford.\" And there were supporters of the family who have been asking for information on his death and the circumstances that led to the police shooting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The meeting started and most people were not allowed in the room. As soon as most of the seats were full on the ground floor, City Hall employees closed the doors and there was a lot of commotion and people upset about not being allowed in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The council closed off the balcony and was not allowing people to sit up there. There appeared to still be a few seats on the ground floor but they were saying it was full and shutting out the remaining people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The people who came to this meeting said beforehand that their intention was to keep talking during the public comment period until their demands for information were answered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The public comment period started and a lot of people signed up to speak and asked for the same thing – information about the night of Alan Blueford's death. About 67 people signed up to speak.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The speakers were kind of reasonable, but behind them was loud and boisterous chanting. So a speaker would be at the podium and behind them was a lot of 'no justice no peace.'\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alan Blueford's mother was the most moving. She said this is my baby, this is my son, he's not coming back. She wanted answers. It's hard to hear that. And she was upset that the council wasn't responding. The council isn't supposed to really answer during the public comment period. But she was saying this is my baby, he's gone, and you're just sitting there looking the other way not doing anything, because they were sitting there stone silent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Finally, Jane Brunner spoke and said ,\"Well what about speakers who were kept out of the room? Can we let them back in?\" Because part of what they were chanting was that people were closed out of a public meeting. She broke the ice of councilmembers finally speaking.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The meeting accelerated, more people speaking in louder voices and demanding language. It was like an hour and ten minutes into the meeting, and Larry Reid, the council president, suddenly stood up and in kind of a huff said okay, okay you can have my copy of the report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He walked over holding this inch-thick document and handed it to Alan Blueford's father, who was speaking at that time. People were clearly surprised by that. He accepted it and was kind of silent, the crowd kept chanting, not realizing what had happened. Then people realized, that in essence that was what they werea asking for. So people kind of filed out after that, but not quietly.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Under the settlement, the city agreed to institute dozens of policing reforms, but it has yet to fully comply. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The current report has been highly anticipated for how the monitor, Robert Warshaw, would view the police department's controversial response to the Occupy Oakland protests last year. Here's an excerpt from the report regarding Occupy:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Members of the Monitoring Team were present in Oakland during the period from October 25, through 28, 2011; and from November 14, through 18, 2011. Additionally, our local Monitoring Team member was present throughout the October through December “Occupy”-related activity. During the relevant time periods, we met with police command staff and local officials, and made observations on the street. We also have reviewed – and continue to review – reports and videos from official and unofficial sources.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As we noted in our last report, we were, in some instances, satisfied with the performance of the Department; yet in others, we were thoroughly dismayed by what we observed. I cannot overstate our concern that although progress on NSA [the 2003 \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allen_v._City_of_Oakland#Negotiated_settlement\">Negotiated Settlement Agreemen\u003c/a>t] compliance has been slow, even those advancements may have been put in doubt in the face of these events.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We also note that the unusual circumstances posed by the events surrounding Occupy Oakland do not relieve the Department, in any way, of any of the requirements of NSA compliance. Instead, it is precisely in such times that the reforms articulated in the NSA are at their point of greatest significance, as they govern the behavior of the Department and its officers.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">We were, in some instances, satisfied with the performance of the Department; yet in others, we were thoroughly dismayed by what we observed.\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>The report noted that as of Feb 15, 2012, there were 1,039 misconduct complaints related to Occupy Oakland, and that OPD's Internal Affairs Division does not appear up to the task of addressing them all in a timely manner: \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp> It does not appear that IAD will meet its rapidly approaching investigation deadlines (180 days following a complaint) required by both the NSA and Departmental policy. If these internal and external investigations are not completed by the required deadlines, it will threaten OPD’s compliance with Task 2, which relates to investigation timeliness. In future reporting periods – as cases are completed, approved by the Chief, and closed – we will review the Occupy-related complaints for investigation timeliness and quality.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The report also recounts several controversial use-of-force incidents, including the one in which ex-Marine Scott Olsen was injured by a beanbag projectile fired by a police officer.

Under the settlement, the city agreed to institute dozens of policing reforms, but it has yet to fully comply. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The current report has been highly anticipated for how the monitor, Robert Warshaw, would view the police department's controversial response to the Occupy Oakland protests last year. Here's an excerpt from the report regarding Occupy:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Members of the Monitoring Team were present in Oakland during the period from October 25, through 28, 2011; and from November 14, through 18, 2011. Additionally, our local Monitoring Team member was present throughout the October through December “Occupy”-related activity. During the relevant time periods, we met with police command staff and local officials, and made observations on the street. We also have reviewed – and continue to review – reports and videos from official and unofficial sources.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As we noted in our last report, we were, in some instances, satisfied with the performance of the Department; yet in others, we were thoroughly dismayed by what we observed. I cannot overstate our concern that although progress on NSA [the 2003 \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allen_v._City_of_Oakland#Negotiated_settlement\">Negotiated Settlement Agreemen\u003c/a>t] compliance has been slow, even those advancements may have been put in doubt in the face of these events.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We also note that the unusual circumstances posed by the events surrounding Occupy Oakland do not relieve the Department, in any way, of any of the requirements of NSA compliance. Instead, it is precisely in such times that the reforms articulated in the NSA are at their point of greatest significance, as they govern the behavior of the Department and its officers.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">We were, in some instances, satisfied with the performance of the Department; yet in others, we were thoroughly dismayed by what we observed.\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>The report noted that as of Feb 15, 2012, there were 1,039 misconduct complaints related to Occupy Oakland, and that OPD's Internal Affairs Division does not appear up to the task of addressing them all in a timely manner: \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp> It does not appear that IAD will meet its rapidly approaching investigation deadlines (180 days following a complaint) required by both the NSA and Departmental policy. If these internal and external investigations are not completed by the required deadlines, it will threaten OPD’s compliance with Task 2, which relates to investigation timeliness. In future reporting periods – as cases are completed, approved by the Chief, and closed – we will review the Occupy-related complaints for investigation timeliness and quality.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The report also recounts several controversial use-of-force incidents, including the one in which ex-Marine Scott Olsen was injured by a beanbag projectile fired by a police officer. The document states:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>The incidents noted above, and other uses of force and citizen complaints, are currently subject to internal and external investigations.
