Both men, who were bus drivers for the transit agency, were San José residents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to a statement from Sheriff’s Office investigators, based on witness statements and security camera video footage, Bui allegedly shot Teotico multiple times while Teotico sat in the driver’s seat of his black Mercedes. The two had reportedly met so Bui could repay a debt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Teotico told his friend days earlier that a coworker owed him money from betting on NFL and college football games.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_12006410 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/07/Screenshot-2023-07-23-at-5.39.19-PM-e1690159469592-1020x679.png']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Less than an hour before his death, Teotico told a friend he was meeting with a coworker to collect money and asked the friend to accompany him to ensure the exchange went “smoothly,” according to investigators. That friend later called 911 to report the shooting on Friday night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Around 9:30 p.m., however, Teotico’s friend was driving near the Chaboya bus yard, where he saw Teotico and another man speaking between two cars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Teotico’s friend heard two to three “bangs” come from the parking lot and saw a white car parked next to Teotico’s vehicle drive past him, going southbound on South 7th Street toward Tully Road.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The friend followed the white car for a short time but then returned to the VTA parking lot to check on Teotico, who he found unresponsive and “slumped over backwards sitting in the driver’s seat with blood coming from his nose.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Security camera footage from the VTA yard showed Bui and Teotico meeting at the rear of the Mercedes and looking into the trunk before Teotico closed it and went back to his driver’s seat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bui carried a black bag or folder in his left hand and had what appeared to be blue latex gloves, investigators said. When he walked to the front passenger door, he opened it, pulled a black firearm out of the bag and “fired several shots at Teotico.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Detectives found three 40-caliber shell casings at the scene. A later search of Bui’s home turned up three guns registered to him, including two 40 caliber Glock-brand handguns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Deputy District Attorney Michael Gilman said investigators are still looking into the firearms and plan to have crime labs analyze the weapons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the DA’s office is not currently alleging the murder was premeditated, Gilman said he feels the evidence will support that allegation, eventually, and the charge could be adjusted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The money owed amounted to “thousands of dollars,” according to Gilman, but he didn’t offer a specific amount.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this week, VTA general manager Carolyn Gonot described Teotico as a “kind, hardworking driver who was well known amongst his colleagues.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said he was a father to two teenagers and that the VTA was “fortunate to have him as part of our staff for 10 years.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The shooting of one VTA employee by another has stirred up painful trauma for many at the agency and in the community, officials said, as it came a little more than three and a half years after the May 2021 mass shooting at a VTA rail yard. In that shooting, a disgruntled VTA staffer fatally shot nine of his coworkers and then took his own life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We express our deepest condolences to the whole VTA community and the family of Mr. Teotico,” Gilman said. “We know that the VTA community is hurting. This is bringing back horrible memories from that horrible mass shooting.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gilman added that if any VTA workers need support, they can contact the agency’s Resiliency Center at 669-308-1475.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s drop-in services, there’s mental health treatment groups to try to help move past both the original mass shooting and any horrible memories that are kind of brought back up because of this incident,” Gilman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

That friend later called 911 to report the shooting on Friday night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Around 9:30 p.m., however, Teotico’s friend was driving near the Chaboya bus yard, where he saw Teotico and another man speaking between two cars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Teotico’s friend heard two to three “bangs” come from the parking lot and saw a white car parked next to Teotico’s vehicle drive past him, going southbound on South 7th Street toward Tully Road.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The friend followed the white car for a short time but then returned to the VTA parking lot to check on Teotico, who he found unresponsive and “slumped over backwards sitting in the driver’s seat with blood coming from his nose.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Security camera footage from the VTA yard showed Bui and Teotico meeting at the rear of the Mercedes and looking into the trunk before Teotico closed it and went back to his driver’s seat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bui carried a black bag or folder in his left hand and had what appeared to be blue latex gloves, investigators said. When he walked to the front passenger door, he opened it, pulled a black firearm out of the bag and “fired several shots at Teotico.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Detectives found three 40-caliber shell casings at the scene. A later search of Bui’s home turned up three guns registered to him, including two 40 caliber Glock-brand handguns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Deputy District Attorney Michael Gilman said investigators are still looking into the firearms and plan to have crime labs analyze the weapons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the DA’s office is not currently alleging the murder was premeditated, Gilman said he feels the evidence will support that allegation, eventually, and the charge could be adjusted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The money owed amounted to “thousands of dollars,” according to Gilman, but he didn’t offer a specific amount.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this week, VTA general manager Carolyn Gonot described Teotico as a “kind, hardworking driver who was well known amongst his colleagues.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said he was a father to two teenagers and that the VTA was “fortunate to have him as part of our staff for 10 years.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The shooting of one VTA employee by another has stirred up painful trauma for many at the agency and in the community, officials said, as it came a little more than three and a half years after the May 2021 mass shooting at a VTA rail yard. In that shooting, a disgruntled VTA staffer fatally shot nine of his coworkers and then took his own life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We express our deepest condolences to the whole VTA community and the family of Mr. Teotico,” Gilman said. “We know that the VTA community is hurting. This is bringing back horrible memories from that horrible mass shooting.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gilman added that if any VTA workers need support, they can contact the agency’s Resiliency Center at 669-308-1475.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s drop-in services, there’s mental health treatment groups to try to help move past both the original mass shooting and any horrible memories that are kind of brought back up because of this incident,” Gilman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Much of the policy is not new, but it centralizes rules regarding where and how students can protest, and it introduces a new reporting system for discrimination after multiple \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11989050/pro-palestinian-stanford-protesters-detained-after-occupying-presidents-office\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">high-profile antiwar protests\u003c/a> — including a barricade inside the office of the university’s president that \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11991389/press-freedom-groups-want-charges-dropped-against-stanford-student-journalist\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">resulted in 13 arrests\u003c/a> — in the spring.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new rule on facial coverings requires people to remove them for the purpose of identification “under circumstances covered by the Campus Disruptions Policy,” similar to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12002150/uc-academic-workers-union-says-new-protest-policies-will-limit-free-speech\">policies introduced at other universities\u003c/a> this fall. People could be asked to remove masks for identification if they are violating policy by disrupting or preventing classes, lectures, meetings and other activities, obstructing the movement of any person around a campus building, or refusing to leave a building that is closed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a method of surveillance that a lot of students don’t necessarily feel comfortable with,” Emily Williams, who was a spokesperson for the Stanford Against Apartheid in Palestine coalition in the spring, told KQED.

The policy was \u003ca href=\"https://news.stanford.edu/stories/2024/02/preserving-free-speech-safety-white-plaza\">enforced in February\u003c/a>, ending a sit-in by pro-Palestinian protesters on the campus’ White Plaza that had lasted more than 100 days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12005209\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12005209\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/240425-StanfordGazaProtest-017-BL_qed.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/240425-StanfordGazaProtest-017-BL_qed.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/240425-StanfordGazaProtest-017-BL_qed-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/240425-StanfordGazaProtest-017-BL_qed-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/240425-StanfordGazaProtest-017-BL_qed-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/240425-StanfordGazaProtest-017-BL_qed-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/240425-StanfordGazaProtest-017-BL_qed-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pro-Palestinian demonstrators march through the Stanford University campus in Stanford, Calif., on April 25, 2024, calling for the university to divest from Israel. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>However, Williams said that a later encampment set up in April was allowed to remain in place until June 5, when campus leaders dismantled it after the occupation of the president’s office by protesters. Stanford’s new president, Jonathan Levin, \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/stanford-debuts-freedom-expression-policy-19772135.php\">told the \u003cem>San Francisco Chronicle\u003c/em>\u003c/a> two weeks ago that the school would enforce and be clear about its policies this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an email shared with students on Tuesday, campus leaders said the new Freedom of Expression website provides interim guidance on “the application of freedom of expression principles in different contexts around campus.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The focus of our policies is on having reasonable, viewpoint-neutral time, place and manner rules that leave ample channels for expression,” the message from Provost Jenny Martinez and Vice Provost for Student Affairs Michele Rasmussen reads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The site also centralizes rules for events on White Plaza, where large “spontaneous” gatherings by campus affiliates are allowed without advance permission. The policy requires credence for planned events and adherence to “rules regarding amplified noise and other issues.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_12002172 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/05/RS19790_GettyImages-493193647-qut-1020x702.jpg']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several other outdoor areas — Meyer Green, the groves next to the Oval, Manzanita Field, and Panama Street Clearing — have been designated for large events. Small gatherings can be held in a wider variety of settings, but events held at these locations with over 100 participants, loud sound, marching or running, or a high-profile speaker will be subject to new Major Event Protocol, which requires permission from the Office of Student Engagement or registration by a faculty or staff member. The site says permission won’t be denied based on the “viewpoint of speakers or participants,” but organizers must follow registration rules and work with campus authorities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>New policy also tightens rules on recording and taking photos of lectures and official course-related activities and limits allowed photos for personal use.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Widespread recording may chill open discussion within classrooms when students are faced with the possibility of a comment made in class ‘going viral’ on social media,” the policy reads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A second website linked in the provosts’ email also introduces a new Title VI process for students to report discrimination, replacing the university’s Protected Identity Harm Reporting (PIHR) protocol. It includes an early screen for reports involving speech protected by federal or state law, a structure for providing updates on existing claims and a dashboard for reporting incidents to the community, according to the message.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leaders say the new process is in response to concerns with PIHR, including confusion about its purpose, the timeline for following up on submitted reports and “long-standing concerns about the potential for the PIHR process to chill freedom of expression.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new system is formed around Title VI, which prohibits institutions receiving federal funding from discriminating on the basis of race, while the previous focused on “protected identity harm,” which the email calls “vague.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Much of the guidance is “interim,” administrators said in the email sent to students on Tuesday, and some policies will continue to be evaluated over the next year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Williams said that how students respond largely depends on how the policy changes affect their lives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think it’s just a matter of being able to experience it first and see how they’re going to play into action,” they told KQED. “Student reaction could largely vary.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

People could be asked to remove masks for identification if they are violating policy by disrupting or preventing classes, lectures, meetings and other activities, obstructing the movement of any person around a campus building, or refusing to leave a building that is closed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a method of surveillance that a lot of students don’t necessarily feel comfortable with,” Emily Williams, who was a spokesperson for the Stanford Against Apartheid in Palestine coalition in the spring, told KQED.

While \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/ed/2018/08/27/640323347/the-school-shootings-that-werent\">the incidence of on-campus shootings is extremely low\u003c/a>, they’re something many teachers and parents have prepared for.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The most helpful thing for parents to share with their kids is that these events are rare and that adults are there to protect them,” said Stephen Brock, professor of psychology at CSU Sacramento. “We can’t deny the reality of these things, but kids need to be reassured with these facts.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some kids find out about the news by seeing it themselves or hearing it discussed at school, at home or in their communities. Young children can especially be harmed by this exposure, so experts recommend restricting their access to traumatic news. Kids old enough to have smartphones will likely get misinformation on the internet and social media, so it’s even more important for parents and caregivers to support their kids.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here are some key steps parents and caregivers can take:\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Remind kids that they are safe\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Children need to be reassured by their caregivers that they are safe. \u003ca href=\"https://www.apa.org/helpcenter/talking-to-children\">The American Psychological Association says, above all, reassure\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“ … reassure your children that you will do everything you know how to do to keep them safe and to watch out for them. Reassure them that you will be available to answer any questions or talk about this topic again in the future. Reassure them that they are loved.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Limit young children’s exposure to traumatic news\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Young children have less developed skills to separate facts from fears, so psychologists recommend minimizing a child’s exposure to traumatic news.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When kids see the news, even if they are not a resident of [the affected place], they have the mistaken perception that they could be shot at any time,” said Brock. “For little ones, turn [the news] off.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And sometimes, that fear is transferred to children through adult behavior. If adults are behaving in an anxious or fearful manner, kids will pick up on that, especially those in primary grades and younger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Kids will look to adults to see how scared they should be,” said Brock.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Observe your kids for verbal and nonverbal cues\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>A parent might overhear a child talking about a traumatic news event, or the child might ask about it. If it looks like the child is curious, engage the child in conversation, said Brock, adding, “Let their questions be your guide.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But not all kids can verbalize what they’re feeling, so look for changes in behavior. According to \u003ca href=\"https://www.nasponline.org/resources-and-publications/resources-and-podcasts/school-climate-safety-and-crisis/school-violence-resources/talking-to-children-about-violence-tips-for-parents-and-teachers\">the “Talking to Children About Violence: Tips for Parents and Teachers” report\u003c/a> from the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP), caregivers are advised to:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Watch for clues that they may want to talk, such as hovering around while you do the dishes or yard work. Some children prefer writing, playing music, or doing an art project as an outlet. Young children may need concrete activities (such as drawing, looking at picture books, or imaginative play) to help them identify and express their feelings.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But if the child is not aware or expressing any interest in a traumatic event, it’s best to not bring it up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You don’t want to interject traumatic events into a child,” said Brock, who co-authored the report.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Talk with your kids in a way that’s developmentally appropriate\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Parents can talk with kids about anything, but it must be developmentally appropriate. Communicating with a 15-year-old is going to be different from talking with a 4-year-old. The \u003ca href=\"https://www.nasponline.org/resources-and-publications/resources-and-podcasts/school-climate-safety-and-crisis/school-violence-resources/talking-to-children-about-violence-tips-for-parents-and-teachers\">NASP\u003c/a> has this advice on how to explain traumas, especially in schools, to different age groups:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Early elementary school children\u003c/strong> need brief, simple information that should be balanced with reassurances that their schools and homes are safe and that adults are there to protect them.

They may need assistance separating reality from fantasy.

They will share concrete suggestions about how to make school safer and how to prevent tragedies in society. Emphasize the role that students have in maintaining safe schools by following school safety guidelines (e.g., not providing building access to strangers, reporting strangers on campus, reporting threats to the school safety made by students or community members, etc.), communicating any personal safety concerns to school administrators, and accessing support for emotional needs.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Teens need guidance from their parents, too, especially since they’re absorbing the chatter on social media networks and direct messages from friends. Kids with phones will likely see graphic images through friends and news updates, which can create added trauma and anxiety. \u003ca href=\"https://www.commonsensemedia.org/blog/explaining-the-news-to-our-kids\">Common Sense Media advises parents to check in\u003c/a> on their teens:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Since, in many instances, teens will have absorbed the news independently of you, talking with them can offer great insights into their developing politics and their senses of justice and morality. It will also help you get a sense of what they already know or have learned about the situation from their own social networks. It will also give you the opportunity to throw your own insights into the mix (just don’t dismiss theirs, since that will shut down the conversation immediately).”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Maintain a normal routine\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Brock said, to the extent that it’s possible, maintain a normal routine. This will be helpful for the kid who’s frightened or anxious about a traumatic event.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The more typical the routine, the more reassuring it can be,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story contains reporting by the Associated Press, and KQED’s Carly Severn and Spencer Whitney also contributed to this story.

But it’s unclear whether the governor’s action will deter voters from going further and passing Proposition 36, which would increase sentences for theft and drug crimes by rolling back pieces of Proposition 47, a criminal justice reform measure passed by voters a decade ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Friday, Newsom launched the opening salvo in the campaign, arguing that Proposition 36 “takes us back to the 1980s, the war on drugs, mass incarceration.

It would also allow law enforcement to bundle related thefts into a grand theft charge if the items’ value surpasses the felony threshold of $950 set by Proposition 47.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another bill in the package, \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240SB905\">Senate Bill 905\u003c/a>, would remove the requirement that prosecutors prove a car was locked to get an auto burglary conviction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other proposals signed Friday are more directly aimed at large-scale organized retail theft. Newsom signed bills to place sentencing enhancements on large theft operations and extend the life of a regional property crimes task force.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">[aside postID=news_11990587 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/GettyImages-1498501086-1020x679.jpg']\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“All of these things in this package [are] going to help retailers, law enforcement and district attorneys be able to provide the consequences for the behaviors that we need to make sure that people don’t continue doing this behavior,” said Rachel Michelin, president and CEO of the California Retailers Association.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supporters of Proposition 36 argue that stricter punishments are necessary to prevent shoplifting and drug crimes — and to compel drug users into treatment. Participation in drug courts, which require treatment in exchange for reduced punishment, has dropped significantly since the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11975692/prop-47s-impact-on-californias-criminal-justice-system\">passage of Proposition 47\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 36 would require Californians convicted multiple times of drug possession to complete treatment to potentially avoid prison time. It would also punish shoplifting based on the frequency of the crime, rather than the value of the stolen goods. Under the measure, a third theft offense could be punishable with a felony, regardless of what was stolen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“State leaders have had years to address California’s crime and drug crises, yet little has been done to tackle the root causes,” a spokesperson for the Yes on Proposition 36 campaign said in a statement. “These newly passed legislative bills are half measures, failing to address the fundamental issues of habitual repeat theft, the fentanyl epidemic, and the ongoing homelessness crisis, which remains unaddressed due to the lack of strong incentives for drug treatment.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of the high-profile proposals signed by Newsom won bipartisan support in the state Legislature. But the path to the governor’s desk wasn’t simple. In an attempt to blunt support for Proposition 36 and keep it off the ballot, Newsom and legislative leaders inserted language into the retail theft bills that would have nullified them if the ballot measure passed. The governor also worked to craft a competing public safety ballot measure, but could not secure legislative support before the ballot deadline.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the architects of Proposition 36 held firm in their push to place the initiative on the ballot, the poison pill language was removed from the legislative package.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

Participation in drug courts, which require treatment in exchange for reduced punishment, has dropped significantly since the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11975692/prop-47s-impact-on-californias-criminal-justice-system\">passage of Proposition 47\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 36 would require Californians convicted multiple times of drug possession to complete treatment to potentially avoid prison time. It would also punish shoplifting based on the frequency of the crime, rather than the value of the stolen goods. Under the measure, a third theft offense could be punishable with a felony, regardless of what was stolen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“State leaders have had years to address California’s crime and drug crises, yet little has been done to tackle the root causes,” a spokesperson for the Yes on Proposition 36 campaign said in a statement. “These newly passed legislative bills are half measures, failing to address the fundamental issues of habitual repeat theft, the fentanyl epidemic, and the ongoing homelessness crisis, which remains unaddressed due to the lack of strong incentives for drug treatment.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of the high-profile proposals signed by Newsom won bipartisan support in the state Legislature. But the path to the governor’s desk wasn’t simple. In an attempt to blunt support for Proposition 36 and keep it off the ballot, Newsom and legislative leaders inserted language into the retail theft bills that would have nullified them if the ballot measure passed. The governor also worked to craft a competing public safety ballot measure, but could not secure legislative support before the ballot deadline.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the architects of Proposition 36 held firm in their push to place the initiative on the ballot, the poison pill language was removed from the legislative package.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
