Thank you.

President Clay, I'd like to take roll.

Yes, please.

Commissioner Tecky?

Yes.

Commissioner Scott is excused.

Commissioner Leon?

Here.

Commissioner Yee?

Here.

Commissioner Elias and Vice President Benedicto are excused.

President Clay, you have a quorum.

Also with us tonight are Chief Derek Liu from the San Francisco Police Department

and Executive Director Paul Henderson from the Department of Police Accountability.

All right.

We'll welcome everyone to our January 14th meeting.

That being said, Sergeant, can we begin?

Line item one, weekly officer recognition certificate.

Presentation of an officer who has gone above and beyond in the performance of their duties.

Officer Alfonso Lomeli, star number 1759, Northern Station.

Testing to see if it works.

All right, it works.

All right, Commission President Clay, thank you.

Chief Liu, Director Henderson, commissioners, and fellow officers in public.

I'd like to introduce you to Officer Alfonso Lomeli.

Officer Lomeli currently works on the midnight shift at Northern Station

and was just recently honored by his fellow officers and supervisors

as the Northern Station Midnight Shift Officer of the Year.

But it doesn't stop there.

Officer Lomeli is a product of our robust lateral officer recruitment program.

Officer Lomeli came to us from an unnamed local agency or two

and was a member of the 284th Lateral Orientation.

He was hired in October of 2024.

Officer Lomeli brings with him an exciting, fresh perspective

on back-to-basic policing for this agency.

Officer Lomeli is one of the hardest chargers on the midnight shift and leads his peers in self-initiated activity.

And Officer Lomeli just volunteered, and he's almost done at the end of this week with completing a criminal investigation training.

It's a two-week program, ICI.

So he's a hard charger.

Officer Lomeli epitomizes what we want to see in our officers.

inquisitiveness, professionalism, maturity, decisiveness, compassion, bravery, but most

importantly, humility. A recent example of Officer Lomeli's dedication to keeping the citizens of

San Francisco safe was witnessed just last month, where he and his partner observed a motorcycle

being driven the wrong way on a one-way road. Officer Lomeli attempted to stop the motorcyclist,

remember this is midnight shift, but the operator fled in a reckless and dangerous manner.

Officer Lomeli wisely ceased his pursuit of the offending motorcyclist, but it didn't stop there.

Officer Lomeli continued his patrol duties while still searching for the motorcyclist.

Using all his senses, he heard the loud exhaust note of the motorcycle in the area.

Officer Lomeli caught sight of the motorcyclist two more times, driving the wrong way on a one-way road again,

but wisely chose not to conduct a traffic stop at that point.

Officer Lamelli and his partner continued to search the area

and found the motorcycle parked at a gas station

where the operator was getting gas.

The final outcome was a dangerous driver off the road under arrest,

motorcycle impounded, narcotics seized from the motorcyclist,

and the citizens of San Francisco that much safer.

So thank you, Officer Lamelli, for your tenacity, leadership,

and dedication to the San Francisco Police Department.

And because of that, we created this whole gala dinner

downstairs just for you.

All right.

Any words you'd like to say?

I'd just like to say thank you.

My seven years of being a police officer,

this is by far the best police department that I've worked for.

and for any prospective members that may be watching this meeting and are excited to join.

We are hiring, and this is, again, the best police department in the country.

Thank you.

Awesome. He passed the test. He's a recruiter.

Mr. Leon?

I just wanted to thank Officer Lomeli for joining the SFPD, Wise Choice, especially now.

It's a great time to join the SFPD.

and thank you for your tenacity and strategic patience,

and it's a good way to bring in 2026 with you receiving this award.

Thank you.

Well, I want to say I echo that,

and it's wonderful to have people like yourself being here as part of this department,

and I appreciate the people here in the community,

appreciate all your services, but in particular in this case where we know your excellence is a sustained excellence.

It doesn't happen overnight.

You've been doing this your whole career,

and you talk you've been an officer for seven years and this is the best place you've been,

well, it's because we have people like you that make it the best place.

And so thank you for being here, part of our San Francisco Police Department,

and thank you for your service and your hard work for the department.

Thank you, Commissioner.

All right. Chief Liu?

Yeah, Captain McCormick, first off, thank you for your leadership over at Northern.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Officer Lamelli, thank you.

Sounds like from what Pat described, you kept people safe about 100 different ways.

So thank you for your attention to that particular incident.

And then, of course, thank you for coming over to SFPD.

We need you badly, and we need your enthusiasm badly.

So thank you very much.

Thank you, Chief.

Commissioner Yee.

Thank you very much there, President Clay.

I just want to echo everybody else what they say.

And on the midnight shift, wow, seven years.

And congratulations to you and continued success.

And thank you, Captain, for bringing your name forward on being recognized, officer recognition certificate.

So continue your success and stay safe out there wherever you are.

Thank you very much.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Thank you.

Chief, you need to take pictures over there.

Take a picture.

Okay.

And you get a free year of no sustained complaints from DPA.

That's it.

Listen, I'm excited too just for that.

Send me less work.

That was a joke.

please approach the podium.

And there is no public comment.

All right, line item two, general public comment.

Good evening.

I just wanted to piggyback off last week about if anything was checked about the digital homicide posters at all the 10 district stations.

And also, if anything has been said more about the homicide reward.

I know it passed and I know that we find new ways to pay tipsters to come forth, but can we find other ways to get that broadcasted even more for mothers like myself?

I come here every Wednesday, and this is something I'll never stop doing because my son existed.

He was a 17-year-old boy who got murdered, and I miss him dearly.

And I come here asking and pleading for justice for my child

and to get that homicide reward poster posted out there some more so people can come forth.

Money talks.

And people will tell.

You want to call it snitching? Let it be snitching.

But they will tell if they're going to get that award.

My son's name was Arbery Arbacasa.

His father is from Nigeria.

He has two sisters left with no brother.

His birthday is coming up April 6, right around the corner.

And my birthday is next month on the 14th.

And my son was murdered on the 14th.

So the 14th isn't really significant to me anymore, even though it's my birthday.

But I just wanted to say this again.

And please help.

If any member of the public has any information regarding

the murder of Aubrey Abra Casa, you

can call the anonymous 24-7 tip line at 415-575-4444.

Good evening, Chief and Commissioners.

My name is Arlene George Drummer.

I'm a retired member of the San Francisco Police Department, been retired for 25 years.

I was in the first class of women officers back in 1975.

I just wanted to come and let you know that we will, I'm a member of the Officers for Justice,

and we will be coming to your meetings, and we'll be trying to meet with each one of you

and let us know what our concerns are.

We have a lot of concerns, but what got to me the other day was that they had an academy class,

And there was not one black officer in that class.

Now, when I came in back in 1975, the Office for Justice had a program that the city sponsored.

And we had all the different nationalities on that committee.

And we did a great job.

And they did a great job in recruiting.

They had 400 people to sign up to be in the police department.

And I think we can do that again, but it's going to take some effort.

It's going to take some black officers that are really concerned and know how to get out there and, you know, try to help people to come into the police department.

I just wanted to introduce myself.

You will be seeing me again.

I wear a lot of different wigs, but look at my face.

I will be here.

Thank you.

And that is the end of public comment.

Line item four, Chiefs Report, Discussion.

Weekly crime trends and public safety concerns.

provide an overview of offenses, incidents, or events are creating San Francisco having an impact on public safety.

Chief Liu.

Good evening, President Clay, commissioners, Director Henderson, and members of the community.

Before I start with my weekly crime trends, I wanted to address Ms. Brown's request from last week.

we did have our we're having our facilities folks go do an audit at each

of the stations just to make sure that the monitors are in good working order

and if they're not to make necessary repairs so I just wanted to let you know

we did look into that okay starting with the weekly crime trends as of 1 11

2026. So we took a look at overall part one crimes year to date compared to 2025.

So same period last year overall part one crimes are down 53 percent. Total

violent crimes are down 39 percent for the year including homicides, rapes,

aggravated assaults, robbery, and human trafficking. Specifically addressing

homicides. There were zero homicides this year year to date versus one in 2025.

Looking at gun violence which is defined as the number of people injured in a

shooting incident added to the number of persons killed by a firearm we are down

75% compared to 2025. Incidents of reported rapes which include attempted

enforceable rapes are down 60%. Assaults for the year are down 33% with a

decrease of 44% in assaults by firearm. Robberies are down 40% with robberies using a firearm

declining by 56%. Human trafficking incidents are down 100% with no incidents being reported

so far this year compared to two this time last year. Total property crimes down 56%

including burglary motor vehicle thefts larceny and arsons burglaries down 49 percent

motor vehicle theft down 51 percent larceny theft which includes vehicle burglaries are down 58

overall and looking specifically at auto burglaries there's a 72 percent decrease over 2025.

Okay, moving into the significant incidents portion.

There were zero reported homicides this week.

In terms of non-fatal shootings, one was reported.

So there was one shooting incident resulting in injury to one victim for the week, ending

1-11-26.

Over the year, there are a total of two firearm-related incidents resulting in two victims.

For the summary of that shooting, on January 10, 2026, at 6.55 a.m., on the unit block of

Jones in the Tenderloin, there was a report of a victim that was shot who sustained a

non-life-threatening injury.

No arrest has been made at this time.

It is currently an open, active investigation.

I did want to make note of three stabbings that occurred in separate districts throughout

the city during this week.

On the 11th at Mission and Geneva within the Ingleside at approximately 8.32 p.m., officers

responded to Mission and Geneva.

They located two victims suffering from stab wounds.

No arrest has been made and that is currently an open act of investigation.

In the Northern District, on January 10th at 2026 at approximately 9.50 p.m., officers

responded to Post and Larkin and they located a victim suffering from an apparent stab wound.

with Arctic, officers did make an arrest of a suspect. And then also on the 10th at 1656

hours in the Mission District at 16th and Mission, officers responded to the scene of

a stabbing that ensued because of a fight between several subjects. A victim was located

with stab wounds. Officers did make an arrest. They took four people into custody. Four were

booked for that particular incident. That investigation is ongoing. So I wanted to just

mentioned those incidents because just anecdotally this is you know a spate of

stabbings however I wanted to make sure that everyone understood that these are

were determined to be isolated unrelated incidents that occurred throughout

different districts

Moving on to exceptional actions by officers, just mentioning one incident.

On January 5th at approximately 11.30 a.m., officers responded to the area of Embarcadero

and Brandon Street regarding a person threatening to hurt herself.

This was on the news, got some coverage there.

arrived on scene, located the woman who they believed to be armed with a firearm, who was

in crisis. Thanks to the work of the officers on scene, along with our hostage and crisis

negotiation team and tactical elements, the woman was taken into custody without incident,

the incident was successfully de-escalated.

All right, moving on to upcoming large events.

Just for everyone's knowledge, we are preparing this weekend for a few things.

Number one, we're staffing up for any impromptu kind of last-minute protests

that have been popping up due to national issues.

There is a Bob Weir memorial going on at Civic Center

where we expect about 20,000-plus people.

And then, of course, the 49er playoff game,

which starts at 1,700 hours,

where we expect a lot of people out on the streets,

bars in the city will be packed,

and then possible celebration.

So we'll be bringing in extra staffing to be able to handle that

Just a few notes on Super Bowl staffing to keep everyone abreast of what's going on

So there are roughly 50 events probably more it's kind of a living list of

events that we will

host here in San Francisco related to the Super Bowl

so

All these events will range from our kind of our SEER 1, which is the special event

assessment rating that's given two kind of top-tier events.

So there are several SEER 1 NFL events in the Bay Area, as well as private events that

will occur here in San Francisco, and they all have large demands for public safety or

on public safety here in San Francisco.

So to cover all these events, regular public safety for our city and contingencies for

spontaneous events, we have canceled days off for SFPD officers.

We have also increased our regularly scheduled officers' shift times from 10 hours to 12

hours to provide more police officers to keep all areas of the city safe and provide all

of our regular police services.

that are off-duty will come into work one of the Super Bowl 60 events on

overtime. Shifts will vary but most will be scheduled between 10 and 12 hours. In

addition, our different police bureaus like investigations and administration

will run skeleton crews with a remainder being assigned to the Super Bowl events.

Our Special Operations Bureau will also be deployed to Super Bowl operations.

our Airport Bureau will have a heavy lift managing the large number of VIPs

arriving throughout the week and general increase in visitors they will be

mirroring our on and off-duty scheduling but they will keep their personnel for

their needs out in the airport so generally speaking we will have we will

be partnering with law enforcement partners both city state and federal so

So some of those, just naming a few, the Sheriff's Office, CHP, Bart PD, Park Rangers, and the

various Federal Resources, FBI, Coast Guard, just to name a few, will all be involved in

securing San Francisco.

And then also just a note, JPMorgan is in town.

That ends tomorrow.

So the general consensus, all the morning safety calls have indicated that everything

has been going very well.

Just a note on First Amendment activities.

Over the past week, there were numerous First Amendment activities that SFPD helped to facilitate

without issue.

All First Amendment activities remained peaceful.

There was a demonstration on Wednesday, January 7th at 6.30 SANSOM where Federal Protective

Services did make a couple of arrests.

However, SFPD did not participate in those arrests.

We observed the First Amendment activity from a distance, helped facilitate traffic and

the safety of the First Amendment activity.

And then once the group started marching, we assisted the group with the peaceful march

to City Hall down Market Street.

Mission Station also had a demonstration this Saturday on January 10th at 24th and Mission

where a small group marched through the mission.

The only incident was that a couple of the Zooks autonomous vehicles were vandalized.

No arrests were made.

And that concludes my report.

Well, Chief, those statistical numbers continue to be great, especially with the resources

we have.

Do we know how large is the current class of recruits that we have going now?

I want to say 28, 28.

28.

28.

Wonderful.

Wonderful.

Okay. And so now we talked about this, you talked about this, so how many classes do

we anticipate having this year? Five.

Assistant Chief, thank you Jones. Thank you.

All right. Commissioner Yee.

Thanks again President Clay. I just want to congratulate the officers and the

command staff and you chief uh outstanding job here looking at the you know the report and the

crimes dropping dramatically i'm very shocked it's year after year and looks like hopefully

again this year so thanks to i guess the planning on the from the chief level to the command to the

officers that I guess are on the front line and so looking at total crime

dropping 53% that's that's marvelous so congratulations to all any member of the

public would like to make public comment regarding line item for the chiefs

report please approach the podium

I like to use the overhead.

If I can find my picture.

I bring these pictures because I want people to remember my son's face and the perpetrators, if they're watching, to know what they've done.

I bring other pictures with me of other homicide victims whose cases aren't solved.

Here are other homicide victims whose cases aren't solved.

As I was talking about earlier, about ways to pay tipsters and ways we can get this out here.

Here are all the names of the perpetrators that were involved with murdering my son on August 14th.

As I said, my son existed.

This is the last graduation picture I will see of my son.

And this is really heartbreaking.

But I carry it with me every day in a button on a picture for a conversation piece.

This is on his reward thing for the $250,000.

I bring these pictures with me

to let people know what mothers go through

that they have to stand over their son or their children

death

this is what the perpetrators left me

a lifeless body

and I'm not ashamed to show it

because he's still my son

I still love him

and I want justice.

Thank you.

And that is the end of public comment.

Line item 5, DPA director's report, discussion,

a report on recent DPA activities and announcements.

Executive Director Henderson.

I have to pull my notes.

So for, since the last police commission,

DPA has opened 11 cases and we've closed 14 cases.

The most common allegations for those cases that came in during that time period were for allegations of officers failing to activate their body-worn camera.

We currently have 13 cases whose investigations have gone beyond 270 days.

But for each of those 13 cases, they are tolling cases, meaning they are criminal or civil cases,

suspending the time tolling for 3304 purposes.

DPA remains 100% in compliance with our governmental code 3304 timeline,

meaning we have not lost jurisdiction in any of our cases since I've taken over at the agency.

We currently have 74 cases that have been sustained within DPA pending with SFPD

and two of those cases that are pending with the police commission.

The Office of the Controllers has resumed reviewing our implementation of DPA's 2023 misconduct audit recommendations.

And I just want to thank the Controllers Office for continuing this work.

They have a division of auditors as well in ensuring that the independent review of SFPD's progress.

Today, our investigators at DPA and our attorneys collectively visited with internal affairs

with the police department for a joint training.

Thank you, Chief, for coordinating that and allowing that to happen.

The topic of discussion was field training, specifically when to intervene in specific situations.

Having us have a joint training allows all of us to be on the same page about understanding the rules and the interpretation of the rules.

So I think it's always more helpful than not to have trainings like this.

And that went well.

That was just today.

Also today was the Prop E hearing on our discipline practices.

I sent it's public record for the hearing, but that was today as well.

I attended that hearing for four and a half hours today right before this hearing.

Also at DPA, we're looking forward to our spring 2026 intern cohort, which is starting next Monday.

So we have a couple of undergrads as well as graduate students that are joining the office for a brief period of time.

And I will be introducing them to the commission after they've settled in and they've gone through their trainings and backgrounds.

So we are here in today's hearing room.

We have a senior investigator in case issues come up of relevance to DPA.

And if folks would like to get in contact with DPA, the website is sfgov.org forward slash DPA.

The phone number is 415-241-7711.

I will reserve my comments on relevant issues in the agenda when those issues are called.

That concludes my report.

Thank you.

If any member of the public would like to make public comment regarding line item 5,

the DPA director's report, please approach the podium.

There is no public comment.

Line item 6, commission reports, discussion and possible action.

Commission President's Report, Commissioner's Report, and Commission announcements and scheduling of items identified for consideration at a future Commission meeting.

There is no President's Report since last week.

We've been quiet here at the Commission and from the President's standpoint.

Commission?

Commission?

All right.

No?

No.

Go ahead.

I just had one question.

and I mean, it's not a report or anything,

but I know that when we did our community outreach

for the chief's election process,

we did talk to many community members outside,

and they expressed that we should do some community meetings,

some commission meetings in certain neighborhoods,

and I was wondering if we could figure out when that would be

and what would it entail.

So I would like to put it up so that we can get it.

I can't hear in the audience.

Oh, sorry. Can you hear?

Sorry. So what I meant is

basically

we had discussion

here during the chief's election

that we need to do more.

We have to be out in the community at least

so that people who can't come

all the way here should be able to be

participating in our

commission meeting. So we did

discuss and we all agreed

that we should have some commission meeting

out in the community and so

I'm just reminding our fellow commissioners that we should probably figure that one out.

First, what I'd like to have, Sergeant Youngblood, maybe you can give us an analysis.

They've done this before and sort of what the protocols were and setting those up.

Once we get that information, then we can kind of take a look at that.

Then amongst ourselves, we can kind of talk and figure out how we can go about

getting to those different organizations and setting up these meetings.

And so why don't, Sergeant, why don't you do that?

And if you can get that back to us whenever you can, get that sort of protocol,

and we'll send it to everybody, and then we'll start that process.

Okay? All right.

Thank you, Commissioner Tacky.

All right.

If any member of the public would like to make public comment regarding line item six,

commission reports, please approach the podium.

There is no public comment.

Line item seven, presentation and discussion on SFPD's response to the stop data audit findings

and recommendations, including an update regarding the stop data

on Data SF at the request of the Commission discussion.

Good evening, President Clay, Commissioners, Chief, Director Henderson.

My name is Jason Cunningham.

I am a program manager in the Crime Strategies Division of the San Francisco Police Department.

I'm here to present on an update to a stop data audit that occurred in late 2024.

So just by way of a reminder, our partnership with DPA on audits,

DPA came in and took a look at how the department was collecting data,

reviewing data, and publishing data back at the end of 2024.

That audit came out at the end of 2024 with 15 different recommendations.

As of the end of 2025, SFPD considers nine of those recommendations closed or complete,

with another six that are still pending completion.

I'll go through a couple of things that we've completed.

I'll touch a little bit on the ones that have not been completed,

and then I'll be available for any questions the Commission may have.

So top level for some of the things that we have implemented, a big thing that I am proud

of and my team is proud of is the routine publication of our data, not only to the city's

DataSF website, but also the visualization of that data in dashboards that are currently

sitting on the SFPD website.

So today you could go onto the SFPD website and review charts, graphs, timelines that visualize for any interested party what's been going on with the stops data that we are generating on a daily basis.

That data is updated quarterly.

In addition, that data is also pushed up to the California Department of Justice quarterly for their use and storage.

We've also implemented a series of data checks over the past, I would say, two years or so,

after we had a little bit of a stumble in implementing a data collection system a couple

of years ago.

So you'll notice the chart that you have in front of you, you've got a little bit of an

orange section over there to the left.

Those were essentially stops that had some kind of data error embedded within the stop,

which made the data a little bit less useful than otherwise it would have been.

You'll notice that orange kind of goes away almost entirely as we move to the right.

Our rate of errors for stops has dropped to sub-5%.

We're working to get that even lower as we move forward.

We have an automated reminder system built into the current stop collection system.

So any officer who starts a stop collection form in our data system but doesn't complete

it will actually get an automated reminder from the system that says, hey, you started

the thing, please either complete it or close it out.

Additionally we have in test today our incident report writing system, which is a separate

system.

Right now, INTEST has a notification at the end as officers are signing off on incident

reports to remind officers if you conducted a stop that meets the requirements in state

law, you are required to go do that stop entry in the stop data collection system.

So there are six recommendations that have not been completed as of yet.

So three of those six really involve the eventual publication of communications to the SFPD with reminders on how and when to conduct a stop data entry.

We're paused on that right now because we are also in the process of changing our stop data collection system, our software, essentially.

As we are going through that software changeover,

it makes sense to us to not issue reminder guidance

at the very beginning of the year

and then issue new technical guidance a few months later

and then more reminder guidance later in the year

to essentially make sure we're touching the officers

with an intentional communications program

that gets to them once.

Because we also know, like our line officers,

they do get a lot of email from headquarters.

They are seeing a lot of communications from us

and trying to get all of our comms into kind of a neat package to tell them,

hey, there is a new stop data collection system that's going to come online.

Here's a reminder as to how often and under what circumstances you make those entries.

And here's technically how you get after using that new system.

So our intent is to get all of that communications out at once.

And then, as I just mentioned, the other three recommendations have to do with features

that may be present in our next data collection system.

So we're in the process of going through procurement for that system,

and it's too early for us to be able to determine whether or not that system is going to do what this audit says.

Specifically, there is an audit recommendation in here about doing a review

of whether or not a system can allow us to have supervisorial sign-off,

whether it can be tied into other systems, a few other things.

Those requirements are hard to determine if we don't know exactly what system we're moving to.

So those additional three recommendations will be re-looked

once we have gotten a new data collection system stood up with the department.

Pending any questions?

So you're still having problems getting a system that can comport to what you need to do?

I'm sorry, sir?

You're still having a problem getting a system to do all the things you need it to do.

I will say the system is not giving us 100% clean data.

There is still some systemic data collection errors that we are working through.

We've gotten those errors down to sub-5%.

We'll keep working it to get it even lower.

But the system, part of the reason we are transitioning systems is because we have not been able to fully resolve that series of errors.

So the new system will be able to do everything the old system does,

plus these additional things to a percentage that you think is acceptable for getting the stats?

That is the intent, yes, sir.

That's the intent.

So are there a number of agencies or companies that are doing this,

or is it narrowed down as it always gets to be?

One company says we can do all these things, and everybody else says they can't,

and then you go there and they really can't do it all.

So is there some type of safeguard for you all to understand

of whether or not they can actually do it versus say they can do it,

and then we come back and you're back in the same place.

Roger.

I can't speak to the exact procurement process

because we don't want to complain or somebody to contest the process that is ongoing.

My belief, and I am not involved in the procurement process,

is that when the RFP does go out and we are soliciting for qualified vendors,

I believe that those qualifications would involve being able to meet minimum standards, of which one of them would be, can you submit data with error-free?

I would defer to our procurement folks for more detail on that, because I'm, again, not specifically involved in it.

I got the assistant chief here.

Go ahead.

Hi, Commissioner.

Yes, several other agencies are using it, larger agencies.

Fresno, I believe Bakersfield, Anaheim are using the system that we're looking at.

And the whole intent is to make a more streamlined approach so that it's easier for the officers to enter,

time-saving on the administrative end, and hopefully better compliance, you know, and with no errors.

Yeah.

yeah thanks ma'am director henderson thank you as a couple of things i know a lot of this uh

was uh being closely monitored by commissioner benedicto who's not here tonight and so i am

woefully catching up on a lot of these things but i wanted to flag a couple of things

just in my notes from the original audit and the presentation because the

some of the questions that I had were about the compliance and the number of

the nine of the 15 considered completed without more of the specific details

because they're very specific and exacting details on the audit in terms

of what's completed. I will follow up directly with you, Jason, for those from the audit folks

and my notes on those things. At some point, you are referencing the errors, and you are

referencing them again, the 5% error rate. Can you be more specific in what are the errors,

if you know? Sure. So the remaining errors that we see in system tend to be what we call

combo errors. So the

stop data collection is inherently very complex in

that there are options and choices that you make

as you work your way through the

data collection survey, where if you say yes to one thing,

several other options will pop up. And if you say no to a thing, those things

won't pop up. And in the current system, essentially, that yes, no

pop things up, don't pop things up, isn't working as fully intended. And so in a very small percentage

of cases, it'll pop up, an officer will enter something when really it shouldn't have popped

up at all, or it won't pop up, and it should have. And it's a systemic issue. It's not something

that's being caused by officers. And are those specific errors, do you have an analysis on the

impact of the public reporting? Yes, I believe I've got pretty deep error analysis for stop data

in our quarterly data reports going through, I want to say, at least Q2 of this year, maybe Q1.

I'd have to go back and double check that. And to be clear, I'm asking you these questions

because they'll be in writing for the audit. I'm not trying to put you on the spot to make you

answer them right now. I mean, thank you. You have the answers. We'll send you a thing. So we have

something formal and specific because we have to maintain the audit and the responses from you in

real time when we get them for you. I just wanted to make a record of what some of the issues were,

some of the issues that we saw. You talked also about benchmark and cutover problems. We know

that that has been a problem for a long time.

Do you have any estimation on what the time frame for that is moving forward?

I know we've identified that there's a system in Anaheim that we're looking at,

and the reason that I ask it in the context of the audit is because it also impacts some

of the important things we've talked about in the past, specifically with, like, EIP

and those other related issues.

Roger.

So I'm tracking the intent is Q1 of this year.

Yep.

I will turn it over to the procurement folks as to whether or not we can meet that intent.

But if we can make cutover in Q1, I believe that's what we're trying for.

Procurement team.

We've got Assistant Chief Jones here for the record here.

Perfect.

Everyone?

Yes.

So right now that's with OCA.

So if we can move it through that process as quickly as possible, again, we don't have

control over how long that will take.

The intent is to get it on lane as quickly as we can.

Wonderful.

Again, we'll send over the formal thing.

As you know, we have to record these in the audits, and they are monitored by third parties

separate from both of us, which is why I have very specific questions on these things.

And then the final thing, and while I have both of you there, although I'm not sure which

one this is because the RIPA I think we've been talking about the mandate for

the RIPA DGO since 2020 is there any movement on that

sorry hold on we were supposed to have a RIPA DGO since 2020 was that in here

What's RIPA?

Data control?

Can you say it for the records of people?

Oh, that's the old, it's called something else now.

It's the racial thing.

It's the AG thing.

I'm just saying because everybody's on TV, they don't know.

They say, RIPA, what are they talking about?

I don't remember what it stands for anymore.

I want them to know what you're referring to.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yes, the Racial Identity and Profiling Act.

Thank you.

But now it's something else.

Yeah, we can check in with our Policy Development Division on that.

I don't know offhand what the status has been since 2020 or if there's any additional issues,

but happy to get you that information.

I'll have more precise questions for you in writing and just respond with the appropriate people that will have the questions.

Thank you.

All right.

Anything further?

If any member of the public would like to make public comment regarding line item 7, please approach the podium.

Hello, President Clay, Commissioners, Chief Liu, Director Henderson.

My name is Zach Dillon.

I'm a policy analyst at the Public Defender's Office, and I'm here as part of the Coalition to End Bias Stops

to shed some light on promising information that's come out of SFPD's work improving their data on reporting traffic stops.

I sent a letter last night to all of you, but wanted to highlight some key points for you tonight.

The coalition was made up of dozens of organizations in the city that came together to support the passage of what eventually became DGO 9.07, restricting the use of pretext stops.

The policy's final approval came in January 2024, with implementation in July 2024.

In the months and years prior, people of color, but especially black drivers, were stopped far more often than white drivers for low-level traffic stops, leading to feelings of harassment and fear.

The quarter before DGO 9.07 was adopted, black drivers represented more than 35% of all drivers stopped for non-moving violation.

In the last quarter of published data, black drivers are now only 20% of people stopped.

If I can use this.

The commission has heard reports of consistent racial disparities and stops going back to at least 2014.

While the work is not done, and this isn't the goal we hope to end at,

this is the first positive set of data we've seen,

and it comes at a time of decreased crime and increased traffic enforcement.

This data is required to be posted to SF Open Data every quarter,

but it should be talked about when, as here, it's positive,

or when the results are not what we'd hope to see.

Thanks to the commissioners and the commission for drafting the policy and to everyone here for the work put in to change a negative metric that had been stuck for a very long time.

Thank you.

By the way, thank you for your letter.

We all read it.

That's very good to see the progress being made.

And we're going to monitor this.

Yeah.

That's important.

Thank you.

Thank you.

All right.
