"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

"content": "\u003cp>Among the tens of thousands of Black Lives Matter protesters who continue to pour into the streets of cities across the country — and the world — decrying America's long history of violent, racially unjust policing, one rallying cry has gained particular traction: 'Defund the police.'\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But what that actually means varies widely depending on who you ask, from dismantling or flat-out abolishing existing police forces to slashing their hefty budgets and diverting those funds to social service programs, which proponents say would much better serve and protect many communities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Broadly speaking, 'defunding the police' entails minimizing the outsize role law enforcement has come to assume in most U.S. cities as the default responder for all matters of complaints, and delegating many of those responsibilities to unarmed social workers and other behavioral health specialists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When we talk about defunding the police, what we’re saying is, ‘Invest in the resources that our communities need,'” Black Lives Matter co-founder \u003ca href=\"https://youtu.be/5NrRIIeNFfo\" target=\"_top\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Alicia Garza said recently on NBC’s “Meet the Press.\"\u003c/a> So much police response, she added, “is directed toward quality-of-life issues, homelessness, drug addiction, domestic violence and conflict.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As local leaders scramble to institute police reforms — from \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11823629/california-legislative-leaders-back-state-sleeper-hold-ban\">banning chokeholds\u003c/a> to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11824453/state-attorney-general-calls-for-a-way-to-ban-problem-cops-other-police-reforms\">heightening accountability\u003c/a> — many activists argue those tweaks won’t ultimately fix a system they consider fundamentally unjust. Real change, they contend, can only come about through a sweeping process of tearing down police departments and rethinking public safety.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>A Pricey Business\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Since the 1970s, when tough-on-crime policies took hold, most U.S. cities have \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/06/12/upshot/cities-grew-safer-police-budgets-kept-growing.html\">funneled an increasingly large share of their budgets\u003c/a> into public safety, often at the expense of social service and anti-poverty programs. And police officers have been tasked with an ever-wider range of responsibilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In most cities, spending on local police typically dwarfs investment in just about any other sector. In Oakland, for instance, \u003ca href=\"https://cao-94612.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/FY-2019-21-Adopted-Budget-Policy-Book-FINAL-WEB-VERSION.pdf\">about 20% of the city's entire budget\u003c/a> (total expenditures, not including education) — more than $318 million — goes to policing. That's nearly double the amount of any other city department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until very recently, any proposal to divest from police departments would have been dismissed by most city leaders as politically untenable. But as public pressure mounts in response to the killing of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police — among many other glaring recent incidents of police brutality — the idea has gained a strong foothold among a small but growing contingent of locally elected leaders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Case in point: In Minneapolis, the epicenter of the current wave of protests, a veto-proof majority of \u003ca href=\"https://www.mprnews.org/story/2020/06/07/vetoproof-majority-minneapolis-council-members-gives-support-dismantling-police-department\">nine City Council members\u003c/a> recently said they would move to dismantle the city's long-troubled police force, even as the mayor declined to support the effort.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2020-06-04/lapd-budget-cuts-garcetti-protests-explainer\">grabbed headlines\u003c/a> this month when he unveiled a proposal to take $150 million from the city's massive police budget of over $1 billion and reinvest it in jobs programs, health initiatives and other services in communities of color. Although some activists say that doesn't go anywhere far enough, it marks a significant turnaround from April, when the mayor proposed a 7% funding \u003cem>increase\u003c/em> for the police. And on Monday – in an meeting once considered unthinkable – the Los Angeles City Council \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2020-06-15/black-lives-matter-lapd-spending-peoples-budget-los-angeles-city-council\">heard from a coalition of activists\u003c/a> who presented a plan to end the city’s reliance on police officers and adopt new community safety strategies.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Lessons From a City That Disbanded the Police\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Disbanding a police department and starting from scratch is not without precedent in the U.S. The city of Camden, New Jersey did it in 2013.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Following years of unabated violent crime, the city council \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2020/06/12/camden-policing-reforms-313750\">literally shut down the police department\u003c/a> — one that had long been considered inept and corrupt — and created an entirely new non-unionized department under county control. All officers were laid off and had to reapply for their jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since then, the city's homicide rate has plummeted, as have once-plentiful excessive force complaints, while community-police relations seem to have significantly improved. The overhaul wasn’t a panacea by any stretch — problems with police accountability and racial disparities still exist in the city — but the experiment is \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2020/06/12/camden-policing-reforms-313750\">generally considered a success\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In California, however, many liberal leaders wary of appearing soft on crime or of incurring the wrath of powerful police unions are walking a fine line on an inherently thorny issue, acknowledging the need for reforms while clearly remaining reluctant to support sweeping overhauls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"police-violence\"]At a recent forum in Oakland on policing and racism, Gov. Gavin Newsom \u003ca href=\"https://www.mercurynews.com/2020/06/09/gov-newsom-holds-meeting-on-racism-and-system-injustices-in-oakland-visits-miss-ollies/\">tiptoed around the issue\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you’re calling for eliminating police, no,” he said. “If you’re talking about reimagining and taking the opportunity to look at the responsibility and role that we place on law enforcement to be social workers, mental health workers, get involved in disputes where a badge and a gun are unnecessary, then I think absolutely this is an opportunity to look at all of the above.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the Bay Area, city leaders are beginning to propose policing reforms of various size and scope. None, though, has yet acceded to protesters' demands to completely dismantle or defund entire departments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here is the latest on what top local officials have so far proposed in the region's three largest cities, each of which has had its own troubling history of policing in Black and brown communities.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>San Francisco\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>SFPD budget (2019-20): \u003ca href=\"https://sfmayor.org/sites/default/files/CSF_Budget_Book_June_2019_Final_Web_REV2.pdf\">$695.7 million\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nSworn officers: 2,260\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Update: On July 31, San Francisco Mayor London Breed \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11831527/sf-mayor-breeds-new-budget-would-redirect-120-million-from-police-to-citys-black-community\">unveiled a proposed budget\u003c/a> that includes pulling $120 million dollars from law enforcement agencies and putting it into programs that support the city’s largely underserved Black community. The previous month, Breed also directed the police department to no longer\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11824152/san-francisco-police-wont-respond-to-non-criminal-calls\"> respond to noncriminal complaints\u003c/a>, revise its accountability and anti-bias practices and stop using military-grade equipment.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite pressure from activists on the street, Breed made clear she has no intention of dismantling the city's police department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"San Francisco Mayor London Breed\"]'Completely dismantle? It is not something at this time that I think will serve the public.'[/pullquote]“I think it's understandable that people are feeling that way, but the fact is you have people who kill people, you have people who rob people and commit really horrible acts. And in those particular cases, there is a very strong need for law enforcement,” \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11823865/london-breed-on-racism-i-have-lived-this-my-whole-life\">Breed recently told KQED's Scott Shafer\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think it's important that our policies are adjusted and that we work to make our department better. And that definitely takes time. But to completely dismantle? It is not something at this time that I think will serve the public.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last week, however, Breed — who as mayor has consistently supported increasing SFPD's budget — proposed a set of major reforms that could transform San Francisco's on-the-ground policing operations. Most notably, SFPD \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11824152/san-francisco-police-wont-respond-to-non-criminal-calls\">will no longer respond to noncriminal complaints\u003c/a>, such as neighbor disputes, behavioral health crises and school discipline interventions. For calls that don't involve a threat to public safety, officers would be replaced by trained, unarmed social workers and behavioral health professionals, who Breed said are better equipped to de-escalate conflicts and limit unnecessary confrontations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11824152 hero='https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/06/RS5487_alt_297-1020x765.jpg']“We know that a lack of equity in our society overall leads to a lot of the problems that police are being asked to solve,” Breed said in a statement. “We are going to keep pushing for additional reforms and continue to find ways to reinvest in communities that have historically been underserved and harmed by systemic racism.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed additionally proposed strengthening police accountability and anti-bias policies, and banning the department's use of military-grade weapons. She also joined Supervisor Shamann Walton in calling to divert an unspecified amount of funding from SFPD's budget to support programs in the city's African American community as a reparation for city policies that led to “decades of disinvestment.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While few details about that plan have been given, Walton \u003ca href=\"https://missionlocal.org/2020/06/san-francisco-police-chief-bill-scott-open-to-defunding-police-department/#:~:text=The%20chief%2C%20who%20oversees%20a,to%20be%20done%20%E2%80%9Cthoughtfully.%E2%80%9D\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">told Mission Local\u003c/a> he wanted to see “at least $25 million” redirected from the police department “if we are really trying to change some of the systemic issues oppressing Black people here in San Francisco.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed's reform proposals don’t include a budget or specifics, but are rather intended as a set of guidelines for the city's Police Commission and other city agencies to map out over the coming year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco Police Chief Bill Scott recently said he was \"open\" to defunding a portion of his own department, as long as it's done \"thoughtfully.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re at a time in policing in this country where the whole world is speaking to us and we need to hear what’s being said,” \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/crime/article/Defund-San-Francisco-police-Chief-Bill-Scott-15328129.php\">Chief Scott said\u003c/a> during a panel hosted by the Alice B.

City leaders pledged to reallocate those savings to fund alternative safety measures, including the creation of a non-police unit to respond to some 911 mental health crisis calls. The city also plans to convene a committee tasked with shifting public safety resources from enforcement to prevention services, with the \u003ca href=\"https://www.oaklandca.gov/news/2020/oaklands-mid-cycle-budget-cuts-14-3-million-from-police-budget-invests-additional-50-million-to-address-racial-disparities\">eventual stated goal\u003c/a> of reducing OPD's budget by 50%. Although a nod to activists' defunding demands, the new budget fell far short of the more substantial cuts that many are demanding.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Top officials in Oakland have so far mostly supported leaving the Oakland Police Department’s hefty budget largely intact.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf\"]'I do not believe we need to defund in order to invest in ... community priorities.'[/pullquote]During Mayor Libby Schaaf's \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/MayorLibbySchaaf/videos/596597447632290/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">virtual town hall\u003c/a> on \"structural racism and police reform\" last week, just a day after \u003ca href=\"https://www.berkeleyside.com/2020/06/11/de-fund-the-police-protesters-march-to-oakland-mayors-house\">thousands of protesters showed up outside her house\u003c/a> demanding she defund the police department, she acknowledged the need for major changes in the city's policing model.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There's a growing schism around what safety means,” Schaaf said. “Many people feel police are here to protect and serve,” she said. ”But for a growing number of people, particularly people of color, police do not invoke a sense of safety.

It would cut about $5 million from the police department, reflecting citywide reductions due to the coronavirus economic fallout, but add roughly $22 million to programs supporting affordable housing, homelessness services and job training, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I do not believe we need to defund in order to invest in these community priorities,\" Schaaf said. \"That is what this budget does.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an \u003ca href=\"https://abc7news.com/defund-the-police-what-does-mean-oakland-department-mayor/6241314/\">interview last week with ABC7\u003c/a>, she added, \"We also must invest, not divest in training and holding accountable our officers, to make sure they are policing without any bias, without any unnecessary force, that they are conducting themselves in the ways that are consistent with our progressive values in Oakland, that requires investment.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While offering little in the way of specifics, Schaaf suggested the need to invest in more \"non-law enforcement methods of safety,\" akin to Breed's proposal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There is definitely room to create more responses that don't involve a gun or a badge,\" she said, noting a \u003ca href=\"https://www.vox.com/future-perfect/2019/7/1/20677523/mental-health-police-cahoots-oregon-oakland-sweden\">program in Eugene, Oregon\u003c/a> that dispatches mobile crisis response teams, not law enforcement, to handle about 20% of all 911 calls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, Oakland City Councilwoman Nikki Fortunato Bas is taking a tack more in-line with protesters' demands, proposing Oakland divert some of the $300 million it spends on its police department to other social services and crisis responders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To start, Bas said $25 million of the police budget should fund trained mediators and social service programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In places like Oakland, where we've been under a negotiated settlement agreement to get to constitutional policing, and we have not achieved that in 17 years, I think the time for reform is over,” she said. “We have to rethink how we get to safety.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11823933 hero='https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/06/RS43611_020_KQED_HalfMoonBay_OxMountainLandfill_05292020-qut-1020x679.jpg']And last week, the Oakland Unified School District \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11823933/plans-to-scrap-school-police-backed-by-oakland-education-leaders\">got one step closer\u003c/a> to dismantling its internal police force after OUSD Superintendent Kyla Johnson-Trammell announced her support for a proposal put forward by two school board members.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am recommending that we move forward to create a district-wide safety plan to ensure safe, healthy and positive school environments for students and adults without a school district police department,\" Johnson-Trammell said during a virtual school board meeting. “Together, we can reimagine how to keep our schools safe, healthy and welcoming.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Activists led by the group Black Organizing Project have been pushing to dissolve the OUSD police department since 2011, when a school district police sergeant \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfgate.com/crime/article/1-million-deal-in-shooting-by-Oakland-schools-cop-4872706.php\">shot and killed Raheim Brown\u003c/a>, a 20-year-old Black man, in the passenger seat of a car parked near Skyline High School.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supporters of the proposal argue the cash-strapped district should redirect its police budget to hire more school social workers, psychologists and restorative justice practitioners.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is an opportunity “to redefine community safety in our schools, to reinvest in our schools, to reinvest in our students and to be a model for this entire country of what is possible,” BOP director Jackie Byers said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>San Jose\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>SJPD budget (2019-20): \u003ca href=\"https://www.sanjoseca.gov/home/showdocument?id=58414\">$464.5 million\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nSworn officers: 959\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Protesters also recently \u003ca href=\"https://www.mercurynews.com/2020/06/12/police-violence-protesters-gather-outside-san-jose-mayors-house/\">paid a visit\u003c/a> to San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo's house, similarly calling for him to defund the city's police department.

Real change, they contend, can only come about through a sweeping process of tearing down police departments and rethinking public safety.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And police officers have been tasked with an ever-wider range of responsibilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In most cities, spending on local police typically dwarfs investment in just about any other sector. In Oakland, for instance, \u003ca href=\"https://cao-94612.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/FY-2019-21-Adopted-Budget-Policy-Book-FINAL-WEB-VERSION.pdf\">about 20% of the city's entire budget\u003c/a> (total expenditures, not including education) — more than $318 million — goes to policing. That's nearly double the amount of any other city department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until very recently, any proposal to divest from police departments would have been dismissed by most city leaders as politically untenable. But as public pressure mounts in response to the killing of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police — among many other glaring recent incidents of police brutality — the idea has gained a strong foothold among a small but growing contingent of locally elected leaders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Case in point: In Minneapolis, the epicenter of the current wave of protests, a veto-proof majority of \u003ca href=\"https://www.mprnews.org/story/2020/06/07/vetoproof-majority-minneapolis-council-members-gives-support-dismantling-police-department\">nine City Council members\u003c/a> recently said they would move to dismantle the city's long-troubled police force, even as the mayor declined to support the effort.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2020-06-04/lapd-budget-cuts-garcetti-protests-explainer\">grabbed headlines\u003c/a> this month when he unveiled a proposal to take $150 million from the city's massive police budget of over $1 billion and reinvest it in jobs programs, health initiatives and other services in communities of color. Although some activists say that doesn't go anywhere far enough, it marks a significant turnaround from April, when the mayor proposed a 7% funding \u003cem>increase\u003c/em> for the police. And on Monday – in an meeting once considered unthinkable – the Los Angeles City Council \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2020-06-15/black-lives-matter-lapd-spending-peoples-budget-los-angeles-city-council\">heard from a coalition of activists\u003c/a> who presented a plan to end the city’s reliance on police officers and adopt new community safety strategies.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Lessons From a City That Disbanded the Police\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Disbanding a police department and starting from scratch is not without precedent in the U.S. The city of Camden, New Jersey did it in 2013.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Following years of unabated violent crime, the city council \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2020/06/12/camden-policing-reforms-313750\">literally shut down the police department\u003c/a> — one that had long been considered inept and corrupt — and created an entirely new non-unionized department under county control. All officers were laid off and had to reapply for their jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since then, the city's homicide rate has plummeted, as have once-plentiful excessive force complaints, while community-police relations seem to have significantly improved. The overhaul wasn’t a panacea by any stretch — problems with police accountability and racial disparities still exist in the city — but the experiment is \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2020/06/12/camden-policing-reforms-313750\">generally considered a success\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In California, however, many liberal leaders wary of appearing soft on crime or of incurring the wrath of powerful police unions are walking a fine line on an inherently thorny issue, acknowledging the need for reforms while clearly remaining reluctant to support sweeping overhauls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The city's police officers responded to over 100,000 calls last year, she noted, and have been instrumental in saving lives, preventing crime and bringing justice to victims.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have a moment where we can continue to see this divide, or choose a third story, where government intervention and armed response is no longer necessary,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schaaf also touted her current budget proposal — one submitted before Floyd's death — as a step in the right direction.

The \u003ca href=\"http://sanjoseca.gov/DocumentCenter/View/41875\" target=\"_blank\">program proposed\u003c/a> by San Jose Police Chief Larry Esquivel -- involving a dozen officers -- would compare several different cameras before the department moves ahead with obtaining devices for possible deployment in late 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's not exactly a trend-setting move, especially as other police departments in the Bay Area and California have already deployed the cameras, including \u003ca href=\"http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2014/12/17/oakland-mayor-says-police-body-cameras-have-cut-use-of-force-incidents-by-60-in-4-years-jean-quan-oakland-police-department-opd-officer-involved-shooting/\" target=\"_blank\">Oakland\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.bart.gov/news/articles/2015/news20150204\" target=\"_blank\">BART\u003c/a> --- a move the transit agency made after an officer killed train passenger Oscar Grant on Jan. 1, 2009.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We recognize that police accountability is a rising concern nationwide,\" said San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo before the vote to approve the proposal for the pilot program. But, he added, \"The technology's not cheap.\" Hundreds of cameras must be purchased, and the data collected must be stored and archived for retrieval.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Esquivel estimates it would cost $1 million to outfit everybody on patrol with a camera. The hope is that, with the Obama administration and some members of Congress taking up the call to equip officers with cameras, a good chunk of the money would come from the federal government\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While some individual police officers and departments have been resistant to body-worn cameras, others see them as a protection to law enforcement. A Justice Department \u003ca href=\"http://www.justice.gov/iso/opa/resources/472014912134715246869.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">study\u003c/a> in the San Bernardino County city of Rialto found the number of citizen complaints against officers dropped by 88 percent in one year after that department started using the cameras.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Whether the reduced number of complaints was because of the officers behaving better or the citizens behaving better — well, it was probably a little bit of both,\" the report quoted Rialto Police Chief William Farrar as saying.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Liccardo said he's looking to the bottom line as well on this score. He noted that the city gets many legal claims every year from people alleging police misconduct. (The city \u003ca href=\"http://www.sanjoseca.gov/DocumentCenter/View/42029\" target=\"_blank\">police auditor's report\u003c/a> on 2014 misconduct allegations noted 340 citizen complaints.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Some of those claims are legitimate,\" Liccardo said. \"Some of them are from claimants who are simply looking to get paid off. We want to ensure we've got real accountability on both sides.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After initial skepticism, the American Civil Liberties Union is cautiously optimistic about body cameras, provided that the \u003ca href=\"https://www.aclu.org/police-body-mounted-cameras-right-policies-place-win-all?redirect=technology-and-liberty/police-body-mounted-cameras-right-policies-place-win-all\" target=\"_blank\">\"right\" policies are in place\u003c/a>. There are privacy concerns, especially in instances like domestic disputes or sexual violence where minors are involved. The Justice Department has been writing up guidelines for police use.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Jose police tested cameras in 2009 and 2012. So when the upcoming pilot is done, the city will have \u003ca href=\"http://www.sanjoseinside.com/2015/04/13/police-chief-suggests-pushing-body-camera-program-to-2016/\" target=\"_blank\">plenty of research\u003c/a> to pull from before making its final call.\u003c/p>\n\n",

The \u003ca href=\"http://sanjoseca.gov/DocumentCenter/View/41875\" target=\"_blank\">program proposed\u003c/a> by San Jose Police Chief Larry Esquivel -- involving a dozen officers -- would compare several different cameras before the department moves ahead with obtaining devices for possible deployment in late 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's not exactly a trend-setting move, especially as other police departments in the Bay Area and California have already deployed the cameras, including \u003ca href=\"http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2014/12/17/oakland-mayor-says-police-body-cameras-have-cut-use-of-force-incidents-by-60-in-4-years-jean-quan-oakland-police-department-opd-officer-involved-shooting/\" target=\"_blank\">Oakland\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.bart.gov/news/articles/2015/news20150204\" target=\"_blank\">BART\u003c/a> --- a move the transit agency made after an officer killed train passenger Oscar Grant on Jan. 1, 2009.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We recognize that police accountability is a rising concern nationwide,\" said San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo before the vote to approve the proposal for the pilot program. But, he added, \"The technology's not cheap.\" Hundreds of cameras must be purchased, and the data collected must be stored and archived for retrieval.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Esquivel estimates it would cost $1 million to outfit everybody on patrol with a camera. The hope is that, with the Obama administration and some members of Congress taking up the call to equip officers with cameras, a good chunk of the money would come from the federal government\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While some individual police officers and departments have been resistant to body-worn cameras, others see them as a protection to law enforcement. A Justice Department \u003ca href=\"http://www.justice.gov/iso/opa/resources/472014912134715246869.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">study\u003c/a> in the San Bernardino County city of Rialto found the number of citizen complaints against officers dropped by 88 percent in one year after that department started using the cameras.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He noted that the city gets many legal claims every year from people alleging police misconduct. (The city \u003ca href=\"http://www.sanjoseca.gov/DocumentCenter/View/42029\" target=\"_blank\">police auditor's report\u003c/a> on 2014 misconduct allegations noted 340 citizen complaints.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Some of those claims are legitimate,\" Liccardo said. \"Some of them are from claimants who are simply looking to get paid off.

"content": "\u003cp>Incoming San Jose mayor Sam Liccardo sat down with KQED \u003cem>Newsroom's\u003c/em> Scott Shafer this morning and spoke about healing the rift with public employee unions, competing with San Francisco for tech jobs and other issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One interesting topic: San Jose's ongoing, never-ending and, some might say, quixotic quest to bring the A's to San Jose. Earlier this year, San Jose sued Major League Baseball over its refusal to grant approval for the team's relocation to the city, something A's owners and the city both dearly desire. At a 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals hearing in August, the judges \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/athletics/article/Judges-take-dim-view-of-San-Jose-s-effort-to-draw-5684371.php\" target=\"_blank\">seemed quite dubious\u003c/a> the city had a case, or even legal standing to sue. A decision is pending.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Liccardo told Shafer he wasn't backing down from the legal fight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We know that the owner and the ownership of the A's are very interested in being in San Jose. Obviously, this will be decided by the 9th Circuit and then we expect perhaps by the U.S. Supreme Court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"As long as this is a privately financed stadium and there’s no taxpayer money going into this, this is nothing but a win for our city. We’ve seen how transformative urban ballparks have been in cities from Baltimore to San Diego to San Francisco. ... We’re the 10th-largest city in America ... and we're a major league city.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Regarding San Jose's competition with San Francisco for tech jobs, Liccardo said:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We’re not just competing with San Francisco, we’re competing with Bangalore, we’re competing with Shanghai. This is a global stage we’re on.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Liccardo went on to talk about San Francisco as if it were ... well ... over ... in terms of being able to sustain itself as an option for large groups of people wanting to live in a city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think it fundamentally does start with creating a vibrant urban center in Silicon Valley, and San Jose is the only place with the capacity to do that,\" he said. \"San Francisco is nearing capacity.

Earlier this year, San Jose sued Major League Baseball over its refusal to grant approval for the team's relocation to the city, something A's owners and the city both dearly desire. At a 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals hearing in August, the judges \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/athletics/article/Judges-take-dim-view-of-San-Jose-s-effort-to-draw-5684371.php\" target=\"_blank\">seemed quite dubious\u003c/a> the city had a case, or even legal standing to sue. A decision is pending.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Liccardo told Shafer he wasn't backing down from the legal fight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We know that the owner and the ownership of the A's are very interested in being in San Jose. Obviously, this will be decided by the 9th Circuit and then we expect perhaps by the U.S. Supreme Court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"As long as this is a privately financed stadium and there’s no taxpayer money going into this, this is nothing but a win for our city. We’ve seen how transformative urban ballparks have been in cities from Baltimore to San Diego to San Francisco. ... We’re the 10th-largest city in America ... and we're a major league city.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Moore was the acting chief at the time, and he beat out Oakland’s then-chief Anthony Batts for the job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The announcement comes just a day before \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/bay-area-news/ci_21557624/san-jose-crime-concerns-spawn-dueling-meetings\">dueling town-hall meetings\u003c/a> on the recent spate of crime rocking San Jose. The City Council will hold forth on the topic in City Hall at 7 p.m., while police and other labor unions will try to get a jump on the narrative at a 6:30 p.m. meeting. The news also comes on the heels of Moore’s “\u003ca href=\"http://www.sanjoseca.gov/clerk/Agenda/20120918/20120918_ss1.pdf\">Update on Police Response to Recent Crimes and Gang Activity\u003c/a>” to the mayor and council. The report says: “When comparing crime activity from January through June 2012 with the data for the first half of 2011, San Jose has experienced a 23% increase in [property] crimes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even worse, the city has seen 33 homicides through August, putting it on a pace to exceed last year’s 15-year-high of 39. August was a particularly deadly month, with \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/crime-courts/ci_21390261/san-jose-shooting-victim-believed-be-18-is\">eight people murdered in 11 days\u003c/a>. \u003c!--more-->The Merc \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/crime-courts/ci_21400206/san-jose-police-department-losing-some-its-best\">reported\u003c/a> in August that the SJPD is about 7 percent understaffed, and that both Moore and the police union blame the city’s fiscal woes… or at least the city’s response to them in the area of public safety…\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Moore and union officials say the reason [for the dearth of officefs] is twofold. After pension reform and pay cuts, officers can make more money and better benefits elsewhere, even at smaller departments. Others, including veteran officers, are leaving because they say the once-proud force is dispirited, overworked and rife with morale problems. They don’t see the same opportunities and proactive policing they once did.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>That pronouncement, however, came after a \u003ca href=\"http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/story?section=news/local/south_bay&id=8764846\">near no-confidence vote\u003c/a> on Moore by the union.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
