(continued on p. 9) PEOPLE’S POLICE REPORT #73 JANUARY 2018 Committee Challenges Domestic Violence and Videographer Incidents, Leaves Protest Force Findings Intact Review Board Staff Messes Up Third Hearing in 18 Months, Two New Members Solidify Lack of Age Diversity he Citizen Review Committee (CRC) held hearings on three cases from September to December. They likely could have heard a fourth case except the “Independent” Police Review (IPR), which intakes complaintsT and houses CRC, caused a hearing to be delayed by administrative mishap for the third time in a year and a half. The Committee challenged two findings among the three cases— to find an officer at a domestic violence scene acted unprofessionally and another wrongly threatened to arrest a videographer— but made no changes in a case involving force used at a protest. CRC’s mostly mothballed Work Groups got a slight but rocky revival as the Crowd Control Work Group consisting of one CRC member met in September, the Policy Work Group met briefly in December, and the Use of Deadly Force Work Group tried to exclude the public from its November meeting, but reversed the decision on site. And, with the appointment of two more members who are under the age of 40 and the third resignation of the year, the 10-person group now only has one member who is over 43. Case #2017-X-0006: “He Was a Bit Unprofessional”— Officer Laughs During Domestic Assault Investigation At their October meeting, CRC heard Case #2017-x-0006, the appeal of a domestic violence survivor who says an officer was unprofessional and failed to make an arrest after her husband assaulted her. The Bureau found both allegations “Not Sustained” (insufficient evidence) with a debriefing on the failure to make an arrest. Lt. Jason Pearce, the officer’s supervisor, implied that because no visible bruises proved the woman’s claim her husband had picked her up by the neck and thrown her down, but there were scratches on the man’s neck, the officer could be debriefed for failing to arrest the Appellant. The way in which the Lieutenant dismissed a lot of the concerns only added to the fact that after the Appellant called 911 twice, both officers responding to the scene were men. From context, it appears they were regular patrol officers and not Domestic Violence specialists. The accusation of rude behavior asserts the officer asked the Appellant what she did to provoke the violence, told the second officer the call amounted to “just some drama,” and laughed with the husband during the investigation. Moreover, the landlady, who arrived after the officers, asked if she could get the husband’s name taken off the lease. She claims rather than saying “no, it’s a civil matter,” Officer A laughed and said “that’s not going to happen.” The landlady told investigators the officer was “a bit unprofessional,” with the qualifying “a bit” leading to the decision the officer may or may not have been out of policy. Pearce stated they can’t tell officers not to engage in levity, or else they should just not talk to anyone. (Chief Marshman put forward a similar all-or-nothing theory at a hearing in 2016— PPR #70.) The fact that the supervisor did not recognize joking was not appropriate in this situation where a woman was fearing for her safety shows PPB training on gender equity is still much needed. Side note: Officers did not follow up with the Appellant to see how she was doing or if bruises appeared a few days later, citing a “lack of resources.” Oddly, the Lieutenant, IPR staff and Internal Affairs all could not tell CRC whether a supplemental report, which was likely required by the Bureau’s policies, had been written. Pearce said he remembered reading one but didn’t have it in his file that night. After much discussion, CRC voted 4-2 to affirm the “Not Sustained with a debriefing” finding for the failure to arrest allegation, with Roberto Rivera and new member Candice Avalos voting no. Kiosha Ford abstained citing her discomfort with the missing report, even though the City Attorney advised abstentions should only happen if there is a conflict of interest. CRC voted 6-1 to Sustain the allegation of unprofessional behavior, with a “no” vote from Chair Kristin Malone, saying under CRC’s restrictive “reasonable person standard” it was reasonable for Pearce to make his finding. The Chief could agree or push back against CRC. Case # 2017-x-0005: Violent Push-out at City Hall: “I’m Really Proud of My Officers for Their Restraint” After spending many hours reading the case file and reviewing videos, CRC was notified in September that their materials— and the file sent to the supervisor reviewing the complaint in case #2017-x-0005— were missing a video that was part of the investigation.

Universities - including OHSU and PSU - have previously had little involvement in addressing gun violence as preventable public health concerns ever since Congress restricted gun violence prevention funding more than 21 years ago. Yet, our universities also recognize the need to address the impact of conditions like gun violence on the health and wellbeing of the communities we serve in Oregon and elsewhere. Based on contemporary use of the term “gun violence,” the Advisory Committee operationalized the topic broadly as any incidents of shootings – intentional

    The Oregonian With re-election bid gone, what can Charlie Hales accomplish? By Andrew Theen October 28, 2015 Charlie Hales is a free agent. Instead of running for re-election, Hales said Monday that he's ready to tackle affordable housing, homelessness, gang violence and the city's blueprint for the next 20 years of growth. He didn't provide many details Monday, and he and his spokesman declined to provide more information Tuesday. But current and former City Hall staffers agreed that Hales now has more room to get things done, and can look to his last two predecessors, Sam Adams and Tom Potter, for models of successes and failures. "You can really break through some of the walls that people put up because people say, 'It's just politics as usual,'" said Austin Raglione, Potter's former chief of staff. Susan Anderson, director of the Bureau of Planning & Sustainability who's been in city government for two decades, said Hales still has credibility and can now be bolder. "You can take some chances," she said. Commissioner Nick Fish said Hales could look to Adams, who followed his July 2011 decision to not run with a "burst of productive energy." In his last year in office, Adams proposed a budget that included a more than $7 million bailout for Portland public schools. He also conceived of the Arts Tax, expelled Occupy Portland demonstrators from downtown parks, and created a new urban renewal district, though Hales disbanded it. On the other hand, Adams wasn't able to push through a renovation of Veterans Memorial Coliseum, though, or a plan to build a $62 million Sustainability Center.

  • Portland Mayor, Police Should Investigate Whether Officers Profile Homeless Head of PPB Professional Standar
    The Oregonian ACLU: Portland Mayor, Police Should Investigate Whether Officers Profile Homeless By Rebecca Woolington June 28, 2018 The American Civil Liberties Union of Oregon has called on Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler and Police Chief Danielle Outlaw to investigate whether officers are profiling people who are homeless. The request came less than a day after The Oregonian/OregonLive published an analysis showing that homeless people accounted for 52 percent of arrests that the Portland Police Bureau made last year. Homeless people represent less than 3 percent of Portland's overall population. The ACLU said in a news release that the organization has received complaints that Portland police officers were stopping homeless people, running warrant checks and searching them without reasonable suspicion or probable cause. Police have targeted some homeless people, the ACLU said, in areas near social services. The organization cited a KGW News report that showed officers running names of campers, a Portland Mercury story about sweeps of homeless people during the Rose Festival and The Oregonian/OregonLive's report Wednesday on the disparity in arrests. The Oregonian/OregonLive analysis found that police most often arrested homeless people on property, drug or low-level crimes. The vast majority of the arrests, 86 percent, were for non- violent crimes, the analysis found. Wheeler, who serves as police commissioner, and Outlaw have both said that being homeless is not a crime. Police say a lack of housing, mental health and addiction treatment drive the arrests up. They also say they've seen a spike in calls to 911 and their non-emergency line about homeless people.
