Time to get an officer who spoke spanish, they would have known that she was the victim. Had they taken the time to know, they would know that this perp had been beating this women since 2000. The officers refused to let mer use the rest room and this resulted in a uti. My client is very scared of the police. I am hoping that this does not continue because the word in the community is if you are undocumented and dont speak english, the police will just look the other way. Now more than ever, bilingual officers are needed to interview lep crime victims and officers need to reassure crime victims regardless of their immigration status their cases will be investigated. Thank you. Thank you. Did this happen recently, if i may ask . No. When was this. This happened in 2015. Okay. Well, if you speak with one of director hendersons folks in the audience, it may be too late for a complaint, but its important that we made these changes there was three years ago, but its important we find out what happened, and its important that you meet with him if you havent done so already. Thank you. Thank you for all your hard work. We appreciate what you do. Good evening, commission. My name is ana decarlos. I am fortunate to sit at the lep working group for months, and weve been meeting for years, and while we recognize the progress made, theres still a lot of work to be done. Only in the last semester of last year, my colleagues and i have heard or seen at least two instances of language barriers during Police Interactions on the street stemming from an improper assessment of language needs. Give an examples, one of our victims was a victim of a traffic accident. She was visited by officers while she was recovering from hur injuries. The officer asked her if she could speak english, and she said no. Anyhow, the officer asked her questions in english, and she tried to answer to the best of her abilities in her limited english and given the situation of pain and injuries she was in. It turns out that the a report was written based on that interview that contains gross inaccuracies and or miss information. Dgo 5. 20 states that abbott exigent circumstances officers must identify native language and or call a qualified interpretation service. Unfortunately we continue to see this pattern where officers dpoe through the process dont through the assessment of establishing native languages. These road blocks are affecting people in the right to access justice as well as services, reparations and healing. They revictimize the victims and may result in arrests from problems stemming from inaccurate reports. We are thankful to people in sfpd who care about Language Access, particularly or langley a son, but we would like to see the whole language liaison, but we would like to see the whole if you could speak to an officer about the whole incident. Miss up ton . Good evening, commissioners. I am ea im so honored to be here. Beverly up ton, Domestic Violence commission. [ inaudible ] nobodys going to believe you. Youre undocumented and or you dont speak english. Its part of the pathology to be involved in that. So were so honored to sit at the table once a month for, i dont know, the last seven or eight years at mission station, but we have to be part of the team that tells the survivor that he or she is believed, that we protect and serve everybody in San Francisco, no matter what language they speak. One of the things we heard today was the danger of wrongful arrest, and we still do see it. And many of the survivors do not want to come forward because this is such a fearful time. Not because of whats going on in San Francisco. Were trying to create, i think, a very safe city, but the political realities are really keeping communities afraid, and theyre afraid to come forward, so were not going to see the kind of reports that we probably have in the past. But i can tell you the examples that we heard from our two leaders in advocacy here tonight is a drop in the bucket. I can tell you that about six months ago, a young deaf mom, which we havent really discussed, including asl and isl, International Sign language, in our Language Access work would be so helpful. A young deafhard of hearing mom was wrongfully arrested, brought out to the scene. She called the called for service. She was ultimately arrested for Domestic Violence, held for several days while everything is getting worked out. Several of us receive an amber alert. It was her child that had been taken by the unstable dad thank you, miss upton. Thank you for that. Yeah, thats a great idea, actually. Any further comment online items about items 3a, b, c, or d .

For the members of the you belie believe public, this was done by our former commission, teresa sparks, and it was just to keep an update on the Many Department general orders that we have for the San FranciscoPolice Department. Every department general order is approved by this commission. Some dont need to be updated. Some do. For example, were talking about police radios, dive teams to Domestic Violence to issues of officer involved shootings, so a lot of these department general orders input from the community and some of our stakeholders, and more particularly as well hear next from the dpa, and its collaborative effort. But what people need to know is each general order is reviewed to update technology, update changes in the law, and each department is held to these general orders. They have to train to these department general orders, and then, these sadly are sometimes the basis for discipline for officers if they dont follow the general orders. Theyre kind of i wish it was only ten. Its not only ten commandments, but they must be responsible for. Thats what we do. Its a lot of work. Like the captain mere, captahe moore, who spent time revising them and bringing them up to date. Next well hear from the dpa whos an active participant in these department of general orders review. Thank you. Good evening, Vice President mazzucco, commissioners, chief scott, and members of the public. Im just going to highlight a few of the projects that weve worked on in the next few months. In response to the do 1k3wrds recommendations, we provided written amendations and made presentations to the sponsor working groups which involves a number of Community Stakeholders on bias and this was to expand the definition of bias consistent with the state law. We also suggested enhancing the departments current procedures on detentions so that officers not om would they provide their card when they stop an individual but it would have the officers Contact Information as well as how to file a complaint or commendation. Weve vachbsadvanced that recommendation. I know thats under review by the Police Department. Another thing weve done during the last six months is weve made lots of recommendations regarding tazers and the tazer review board and have attended many meetings as many of you can attest to. Lastly, the last sparks report that we provided, we did substantial editing. There had been comments that its just too lengthy and not readable, so with an eye towards really highlighting recent work and some of the dpas outstanding policy recommendations, we tried to make it more concise, welcome any feed that you have. We hope theres a number of outstanding reportings like recording, persons and personal effects. We hope that were able to address those recommendations in the up coming months. That concludes my report. So as the public can see, our officers have to be judges who on the street have to follow the law and make quick decisions in tense situations, and follow the law. So thank you for trying to simplify it. A lot of effort goes into this, and people speak highly of your hard work in this area. Dr. Marshall . Quick question. We just passed a general order regulating general orders. So im just wondering, you know, the i know youre moving as quickly as can, but it did have some time frames in that new general order.

No, wrong person. The general order 3. 01 is in the meaning confer process. That was the last action that the commission took, so were waiting to hear back. Youre waiting until its really official.
