Lot of 5. 19 and there are new calls for firing the federal monitor who oversees the Oakland Police. This comes after former police chief Anne Kirkpatrick was fired from her job kron fours Haaziq Madyun has more. Intervention from outside the department of Justice Needs to come out i am appealing. To the federal courts and the federal department of justice to intervene it is time for Robert Warshaw to be fired from his position as a monitor of the Oakland Police department retired Oakland Police chief Howard Jordan joined recently fired opd chief Anne Kirkpatrick and oakland city councilmember noel their call to have federal monitor Robert Warshaw removed as overseer of the 2003 to go she added settlement agreements to be from the riders lawsuit, the nsa list over 50 reform task in which opd less reach full compliance, something the department has been unable to do for the past 17 years. They blame warshaw were shows job is to miss the police the police. But he has no oversight. No one is held accountable. And he has made a career and millions of dollars on the backs of the residents of oakland, the money is a problem for the council members. Well we must question the expenditure of over 28 million and kirkpatrick started this call to get rid of the current federal monitor soon after she was fired without cause by the Oakland Police commissioner and mayor libby shaft. Im not saying these illegal. What i am saying is that the goal line changes. The department of justice is not a party to it justice has nothing to do with this agreement the attorney representing the coalition for Police Accountability larry white says kirkpatrick has no standing with the courts to call on the federal monitor to be fired Mister Warshaw is an employee of the federal court. The federal court is unhappy with the way hes doing his job. If the plaintiffs attorneys are unhappy with him if the city of oakland is unhappy with them they can remove him the problem is that Oakland Police department has not lived up to the reforms that the nsa kirkpatrick also announced that she has officially retained Legal Counsel in preparation for a lawsuit in the wake of being fired. But exactly who she is like and for what it is yet to be determined theyre going to be several causes of action and the attorneys are preparing that as we speak. In other words, stay tuned.

Peer 27 right in downtown San Francisco near Fishermans Wharf along the embarcadero of course is one of the possibilities but the city of San Francisco still has a lot of questions that need to be answered before they say yes or no as far as the kids show you the video the Us Coast Guard flew those kids in and drop them off to the cruise ship. Dozens of kids and they are rushing them. James and darya because they want the results back as quickly as they possibly can so they dropped him off to the people on the cruise ship and the ones that showed symptoms no doubt about it flulike symptoms. They were the ones to first get the kids the gave their samples gave them back to the authorities and then the authorities actually flew them back to the bay area and the rate now they are being tested at a plant in richmond, the results could come back as early as today and based on those results the city of San Francisco will decide what to do with that cruise ship because at one time it was in San Francisco before heading out to hawaii.
