Chief celebrates that a sideshow / stunt driving plan was thwarted by quickly deploying a high-visibility police presence to known sites. These #sideshows are very dangerous once they start, so SFPD wants to prevent them in the first place. Success!
Chief: says he has met #SeanMoore's mom at community meetings. Supports the court process. Recognizes the seriousness of a life ended. Sent SFPD-wide email when this was announced, as leadership.

Public Comment: suggests assigning commissioners to particular topic areas, reporting quarterly. Deputy Chief from Canada shouldn't hear about bills taking 5 years to implement. Wants quality of life issues addressed now.

Recommendation 1: update social media policy as case law evolves, so officers are aware what can and cannot be posted. Recommendation #2: Create a policy to have supervisors or senior officers conduct informal training whenever a case is dismissed due to 4th Amendment issues.pic.twitter.com/vtcqAvymlq
Show this thread -
Recommendation #3: Create roll call training on when incident report is mandated. Training should differentiate between inaccurate vs clearly false. Include examples of inaccurate reports. This training should be prioritized before other roll call training.pic.twitter.com/9QzJs5Y45M

Recommendation #4: Department to develop a mechanism to update officers when cases are decided that make substantial changes to 4th Amendment law to prevent unlawful searches or seizures. Department to also develop quarterly updates regarding 4th Amendment law.pic.twitter.com/7Al4N3EpcN

Elias: discussion with presenters about bodyworn cameras. (missed the response as I caught up on slides - I'm falling behind)pic.twitter.com/shU97UWG3P
Show this thread -
Elias: asks about disparities between DPA & Internal Affairs (IAD) findings for training failure. Answer: DPA provides the report directly to Chief, not via IAD. IAD doesn't open a case; DPA already initiated it. Elias asks for a report of DPA cases confirmed/rejected by IAD.

Elias: asks for robust discussion with officers. Moser: DGO2.09 revision is an opportunity. Off-duty social media is the core issue. Elias says it is essential DPA is brought into the conversation. DPA is eager to shape 2.09 posting & in investigations (5.16, too).

Elias: when a case is discharged without ability to prosecute, how is the department tracking that data? Moser: this recommendation came out of the

Elias: a recommendation was short video trainings on 4th amendment violations, status? Including DPA 4th amendment training, since sometimes SFPD doesn't agree with 4th amendment findings by DPA -- shouldn't officers know both standards? Disservice to the officers.

@SF_DPA@PaulHendersonSF asks for specific re: DPA involvement? Elias: internal affairs needs to involve both charging agencies (DPA) before training is drafted to prevent officers from being subject to discipline. Once drafted is too late. Moser: agrees.Show this thread -
