The 10 00 and 11 00 news right here on ktvu. The cdc is telling state governors to be ready to distribute vaccines on november 1st. They will have permanent applications in what he calls the near future from vaccine maker. Some are concerned this is politically motivated. How realistic a november vaccine is, we are joined by this expert from berkeley Public Health. What you think about this november 1st date . From the perspective of preparedness, its always good to be prepared. One can never complained about asking Public Health to be prepared. We were not prepared for this pandemic so i hope we learned a lesson there. But, the idea that november 1st, we will have a vaccine, i think is at best, very improbable. What we have to go through to know that a vaccine is safe and effective is a lot of work a lot of hard work. We have to get enough people enrolled and vaccinated and so on. I think the idea that we should be prepared for november 1st is unlikely. Are you concerned . Through all of this weve been told be patient, it takes a long time. Its sped up more than it has been in the past but is safe. People have so many concerns pa it all out there, make people less confident even when a vaccine is released . Or does it make you any less confident in what might be distributed through Public Health department and say okay now you can go ahead and distribute it . I think this is a sign of our times. Its a very sad statement. Theres a lot of mistrust right now. And a lot of that mistrust over years the on homeless. Comes from very valid reasons. We get a lot of prevarication out of the white house. We know the cdc is politicize. But thousands remain on the streets. Where does the system fall short . We looked into that. Joining me its very difficult when we hear a pronouncement that we want to be prepared, its difficult to not be skeptical now is jennifer with the as to why we want to be prepared. Why the white house, why the coalition on homelessness to talk more about that. Thank you for joining us today. Cdc but really the white house is suggesting this. Hello. And other time when there was trust from the government, when lets talk about the shelter process. You went over a number of there was the cdc and fda that issues. Lets talk about shelters. A majority say they have been was not politicize, i dont think people would be questioning the idea of being prepared for this. Rejected for regular use of a shelter and some say they were the given the political forced from a shelter. Environment we are in now, given the way things have wire People Living on the streets when we are dealing with this crisis be forced the happened with our government, i can understand why people are skeptical. Shelter . 81 have been using shelters and this is folks on the yes, you are absolutely right, street. Of theyve been using shelters same november 1st, we could have a vaccine when weve been told for months and months correctly, that this is a over the past year or put out difficult and long process, of shelter or could not get makes people wonder what is the into shelter. Shelters have time limits, thats part of the issue we are bringing up. Frequently people get into the shelter system, stabilize and right message. Certainly it is something put back on the streets. We heard a lot about how people have called for both destabilizing that was for internal audits and checks as folks. Well as external to address really big barriers to getting into shelters, as well. Those tough concerns. There is frankly, not enough we are out of time but dr. I beds, nowhere near. Appreciate your time and as we look towards the next few we have been hearing a lot about that over the years. Months, we will be watching all thank you very much. What about Substance Abuse. Of the study found barriers to the white house clarified remarks by President Trump for accessing treatment which is a potential voter fraud. As Facebook Changes political ads heading towards the big reason that some people are november election. On the streets in the first place. Is there an issue with the joe biden and president current system, getting the Homeless People the services they need when it comes to Substance Abuse . Trump showcasing their yes, there is. There is huge issues. Differences when it comes to safety and security. We had large, so of the folks i will have more details on that have Substance Abuse that coming up. Issues, a lot of them have been trying to get treatment and were not able to get treatment because of the lack of and also really other barriers to getting treatment. Prevente getting at. A lot of runaround a lot of lack of clarity on how to get into the system, a lot of problems with disability access. A whole myriad of issues were keeping people from getting the help they needed. Then of course we had another huge problem when they were in treatment it was effective. For most folks, it did improve their situation and get them closer to meeting their goals. However, very frequently at the end of those days, they would be back on the street. This negated a lot of the positive progress that they had made once in treatment. People felt i cant address the issues if im back on the street. Very difficult issue. Troubling find there. Thinto, as well. Why do we see this issue with those that are homeless and transgender . You have a situation where, the reason we highlighted the Transgender Community is they are so disproportionately impacted by homelessness. It is incredibly common experience for them at much higher levels than the rest of the population. And they face multiple barriers. Economic barriers. They face barriers in congregant settings. There is a lot of discrimination and abuse they face inside those shelter systems. There is a lot of, or a lack of democratic nominee, joe biden programs to set up to serve the community. Everyone is set up as the spoke with jacob blake on the gender binary, male, female. Very difficult for folks to phone during his visit to navigate. The substanceabuse system is kenosha, wisconsin. The same wa lake is partially paralyzed after being shot in the back by are these issues widespread police last month. Enough to be contributing to pr or are these areas something fox news tells us biden and you could conceivably fix to trump campaigns are offering very different views on the get the ball rolling on getting push for racism or racial the homeless crisis solved . The reason we did this justice and police reform. Reporter democratic report is were getting ready nominee, joe biden and his wife jill, traveling to wisconsin for a private meeting with jacob for the release of the props see funds which is a Voter Initiative past in november of blakes family and his legal team. They try to showcase a different message, compared to 2018, had a lot of broad the president s visit early in the week. We have an enormous support but being held up in court. The controller is waiting. Opportunity, now the curtain probably going to go to the has been pulled back. Positive supreme court, we dont know for sure yet but the controller has not released the funds. As soon as they are released we will be in a position where we will be able to do a lot of system changes. We will be able to have more housing, there is a lot of board and care facilities with for people with Mental Health issues that are for sale now and we can buy those. Theres a lot of things we can do there. We want to see that has a system that does not put the people back industries. If youre in a Treatment Program you go into housing. And if youre coming out of a shelter, you get stabilize. The long road we have to solve this crisis. Thank you for joining us today. Thank you for having me.

The unusual case of a Police Officer facing criminal charges for a deadly, onduty shooting in san leandro. We are joined more with this highstakes case. Tell us about it. Reporter this case comes amid the national wrecking over race and police misconduct. Criminal charges against kind of cases before. Police officer, jason fletcher, charged with voluntary manslaughter for fatally shooting Stephen Taylor inside a walmart store. Fletcher failed to deescalate the situation and shot and killed him 40 seconds after arriving at the store. He had a bat and had mental issues. Widely reviewed the case and filed the criminal complaint. Wiley has experience prosecuting Police Officer. He retried a group of oakland officers accused of misconduct. They spoke at a barbershop form in san leandro. Theres a gap between the community and Police Officers. And of the criminal justice system. Repothe cases das logic. Of the client did try ve the bat and teasing him. He defended one of the accused writers as well as bart Police Officer in the deadly shooting in oakland. He was charged with murder but convicted of involuntary manslaughter. Is a hard line to cross when you say justice because it wont bring him back. She is a friend of Stephen Taylor. We are happy to see this happen, we want a full conviction. Getting charges one thing but convicting is another. I hope this sets the standard. This officer has been on paid administrative lead leave since the shooting april. We will hear more about the case from our legal analyst, michael cardoza. Policy on looting cases in concert costa county causes controversy. There questions like what is it motivated by the state of emergency, was it financial gain or personal need . Some have argued that it implied that looters could be let go. Of the da office said not the case, guidelines are being misconstrued and misinterpreted. Here to talk about the policy legal analyst, mark cardoza talking about what it means. Thanks for joining us. This outlines a bunch of things when you talk about the lead the looting policy. To did it happened during the state of emergency or was it simple theft. Was it open or closed during the pandemic. This is outlines of the looting charge is applicable all to a theft. We are not saying were going to let anyone off if they steal from a business. Its the District Attorney of Contra Costa County imposing her own philosophy over the law. This District Attorney had no Prior Experience as a District Attorney or to my knowledge, as a criminal defense attorney in the case and yet she was appointed District Attorney. Now she comes up with these criteria. One of which is in this is the one that most people are screaming about, if you need it, its okay to take it. If someone walks into a store during a time of pandemic, for example, if you need the tv, i guess its okay to take it. If you needed the liquor. Thats what people are saying. Thats stretching a bit but thats with these guidelines look like. Was a difference whether the store was open or close. Whats the difference whether o what a good District Attorney says is those things are in consideration with mitigation. You been a prosecutor and defense the end both sides of the table. Weather have someone going in there. When i asked the office about that what about this one phrase. Out of all these things that list as need or financial gain. They said thats something all prosecutors need to understand. They ask about all sorts of crimes not just looting, why did this happen, what led to this it doesnt mean a charge wont be filed. Is in mitigating factor that you mentioned to say why did this happen . It does not mean according to the das office the person isnt going to face a charge. Maybe it wont be looting maybe will be theft or something else. Or fall unde fair enough, why put the criteria out. I think its because of the inexperience in the office from the top. Of the top of the office, epa sets the philosophy. To set the policy out of the office. Those things should be taken into consideration, but not for whether they should file a case or not. This office is saying we take that into consideration as to whether we file a case or not. No, thats wrong. If someone looted under the law, you file the case and then you look at the mitigating factors. For example, if someone goes in and steals diapers. I dont have any money. My baby needed diapers. You still committed the crime and we will mitigate the sentence. But if you took shoes and a television and liquor, we will punish it more harshly, not whether or not we file the case. Thats what the officer is saying we will take it into consideration whether they filed the case. Ive talked to District Attorneys from other offices and they shake their head and say whats going on in that county. This is her policy and its wrong. It would be interested to see if there are cases where they couldve been charge and they were in charge. They point to a case in june on the first where person was charged with looting and possessing of firearm and concealed firearm. With this policy lead to fewer cases i guess we will have to see if that happens. They will never tell you whether they didnt charge someone or not. You will never find that information out. Only if they do file something. They should not of put this out quite simply. This was a mistake on their part putting this out as guidelines. That goes to inexperience. Michael cardoza, we take ca stay healthy. Wildfire, new wildfire concerns. Even these fires continue to burn across hundreds of acres in Northern California. We will speak next with cal fire to learn how the agency is gearing up for the coming up heat wave. This will be a major heat wave coming into the weekend. Forecast coming up. There is groaning containment on the three massive fires in california. Major concerns lay ahead as another heat wave is in the forecast. We are joined by cal fire, deputy chief, jonathan cox. Thank you for joining us. Give an update on the major wildfires burning now. The largest one burning, the scu complexes 70 contained. The one in nampa is 81 contained. 48 percent contained on the one in santa cruz county. Containment is going on and good strong work in the bay area. We are concerned were looking at triple digit heat and low relative humidity through the weekend. Yes we will talk about that next. Is speaking of the second heat wave we have in less than a month. How is cal fire preparing for that heat wave . We started to mobilize resources throughout the region. As you can imagine, weve come off a fairly significant and historic fire siege. We are forwardlooking and recognize we have to move forces around to make sure that should additional large fires break out over the next four days, we can get additional attack resources and try to keep them less than 10 acres. I want to ask you this, are you concerned this weekend, the heat thats coming here will actually set back your efforts for containment . And building up your firefighters thats building up the past couple of days . We are fairly confident that the fires we have containment on will continue to hold increase. We have a lot of the state fig fires. We are starting to get a foothold on the larger fires. Is some that have less containment, we are concerned that changing temperatures and changing winds will in fact potentially increase the size and location of the fire is. The three largest ones around the bay, we are confident we will be able to hold heat coming through. Like right now. Now that youre getting containment. I wonder if you have less personnel battling the fire . We brought in more resources throughout the country. Also within the state. On the lightning complex alone, theres 300 National Guard now on the line. They allow the cal fire resources to be sent to more initial attack fires and spread everyone out evenly across the bay area. The good news is we are increased as far as the number of personnel on the line right now. The bad news is we have a number of fires that are not fully contained. It will require our resources to be out there. You are making headroom and putting out the fires and that is good news, good luck to you and your personnel this week, jonathan cox, giving us an update ahead of this big heat wave we are expecting in the bay area. For the latest information for wildfires burning across california, find it on our home page at ktvu. Com. Now lets look at your forecast. With all the fires they started with the last heat even.
