The Cleveland Police Monitoring Team published its 12th semi-annual report on March 23. I’m going to share the highlights. This is the link to the 87-page report. static1.squarespace.com/static/5651f9b#Cleveland #CLEpolice #PoliceReform #ConsentDecree #LawEnforcement
The report was filed in federal court last Thursday. Later Judge Solomon Oliver Jr. held a 2-hour hearing with the monitoring team & “the parties.” @TheJusticeDept & @CityofCleveland are the parties. The judge has overseen the case since 2015. I attended the hearing.
Let’s start with some basics. Here’s the modified consent decree with tracked changes. It was approved by the court in March 2022. Changes reflect the new charter language (article 115) that was added after Issue 24 passed. Below is the table of contents👇static1.squarespace.com/static/5651f9b…

#PoliceReform is of urgent nature as most #Police officials work to please #Politicians or rich individuals

Please learn about #ZeroFIR and if a police officer denies registering an FIR, at least get an entry into DR register, and you must immediately look for registering complaints online too.

#IndianJails are just another world where one doesn't repent their mistakes/crimes instead they learn the new ones/ways of committing more crime coz the police's behavior leaves an impression that one can get away easily by paying away to #Police

#PoliceReform #TyreNichols #Tyre #Video #Riots - Bodycam footage pf Tyre Nichols' murder by 5 police officers is due for release tonight. Police across USA are bracing for riots and violence. But violence will only harm and destroy communities with NO benefit. Please don't do it.
#RodneyKing #TyreNichols + Memphis, HELL NO trend. 1992's Los Angeles Rodney King riots did great harm. This was both the immediate damage and massive subsequent economic devastation as companies and customers stayed away. What do #riots do to the communities they devastate?
3/ #PoliceBrutality #TyreNichols: People have every right to be angry. I'm angry. 😠😠😠But for once, the system actually seems to be working. The five #Memphis #police officers have been fired and arrested. Quickly.

As hundreds pack the hallway of the Nebraska state Capitol, the @NebraskaFreedom Coalition is in hearing room 1113 to bring you testimonials for and against LB 314, 17, and Constitutional Carry - LB77. We will be testifying in support of LB 77 later today 👍🇺🇲 Stay tuned... 👀
@MomsDemand is on site, as is representation from @GunOwners of America, who passed out these hats to those waiting in line 👍 a quick gauge of the crowd has those in favor of constitutional carry out numbering those against - 2 to 1 it would seem 💯 God bless America #2A 🇺🇲
Of note, Republican Senator Geist was at a campaign event earlier and missed the first of 3 bills! Last session, Geist did not support constitutional carry. We hope she gets real and listens to her constituents, in support of constitutional carry this session 👍

There's a series of interlinked Discord groups for Britain's cops. You must show policing ID – such as a warrant card – to gain entry.

These groups are packed full of misogyny, racism + homophobia that – quite frankly – makes the recent WhatsApp revelations look tame.🍎
Over the next week or so, I'm going to share excerpts from these groups, which – collectively – have a membership of many hundreds of police officers. And of course, we can be certain they're emergency services workers as they all foolishly flashed their ID to join the group.🍏
The @metpoliceuk has launched a #NotInMyMet campaign to combat misogyny, racism + other forms of discrimination, after Sarah Everard's death at the hands of a serving officer.

Unfortunately, many police officers show huge contempt towards this training on women's safety.🍎 Image

TINUBU TURNING PROBLEM INTO ASSET(3).

Let's talk about ISSUES as we approach #NigeriaDecides2023 election.

Between 1999-2007, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu & VP Atiku had opportunity to SPEAK, 2007-2014 Gov Peter Obi had opportunity to Speak..

We will Judge them by their RECORDS! Image
Yoruba elders say "Àṣesílẹ̀ làbọ̀wábá; ẹni tó ṣu sílẹ̀ á padà bọ̀ wá bá eṣinṣin" (Everyone will experience the consequence of their action. Whoever defecates on the floor will later have to contend with flies)

No need to wait for TV Interview, The past is enough:
Nigeria has REVENUE issue, we need DOERS, not TALKERS.
In Episode1, I did show how Tinubu was faced with Ocean Surge Challenge & how Eko Atlantic City came out of that.
In Episode2, I did show how the menace of waste management in Lagos was turned into REVENUE Generation..

@cledocumenters @ADAMHSBoardCC @CLEpolice @NEOMEDedu @cledocumenters @NeighborUpCle: I emailed the same PowerPoint presentation about the emergency commitment process to almost 2 dozen of my fellow @CityofCleveland Mental Health Response Advisory Committee (MHRAC) members on Feb. 2 & Feb. 3, 2021. My emails were ignored. #MHRAC
@cledocumenters @ADAMHSBoardCC @CLEpolice @NEOMEDedu @NeighborUpCle @CityofCleveland I mixed up the dates. I sent this email to 22 MHRAC members on Feb. 1, 2021. They work for @CLEpolice, @ADAMHSBoardCC, @NEOMEDedu, @TheJusticeDept, @cle_monitorteam & other organizations. One person thanked me. But no action was taken. See the last paragraph. #MHRAC #PoliceReform
@cledocumenters @ADAMHSBoardCC @CLEpolice @NEOMEDedu @NeighborUpCle @CityofCleveland @TheJusticeDept @cle_monitorteam On Feb. 3, 2021, I replied all to an email from the @CLEpolice Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) Coordinator. He retired last week. The email was sent to 23 people including a deputy police chief. I included a 3-page document that I created. Nobody replied. #MHRAC #PoliceReform

Happening now: Live tweeting #BaltimoreConsentDecree quarterly meeting w Judge Bredar on "progress" of reform by 2022 Baltimore Police #MichaelHarrisonBPD #MosbyIndictment
Jim Shea and Lisa Walden signed in to represent Baltimore's electeds and presumably the will of the community. Judge Bredar begins with an opening statement.
BREDAR: Reform hasn't taken hold in Baltimore prior to #MichaelHarrisonBPD is to a small part due to a lack of intestinal fortitude of prior leaders and but primarily bc of the distraction of the murders (that Mayor Jack Young is NOT committing). #gunviolence #badpress #quotas

1/ Cleveland Police Chief Calvin Williams, when he was commander of my district, always struck me as a decent, smart fellow and straight shooter. Somehow, he lost track of the true meaning of public service along the way.
2/ He was disrespectful to and disdainful of bona fide victims of police misconduct. He refused to freely provide information to victims, including Samaria Rice, mother of #TamirRice—we had to resort to public-records request.
3/ He was dilatory about holding officers accountable and let serious, even racist misconduct slide. Example. Officers Brian Kazimer and Dan Crisan. In Aug. 2010, the officers brutalized a 16-year-old Latino child with Down Syndrome. thefreethoughtproject.com/racist-cops-as…

Thread about #migration #Guatemala #Mexico #USA #Trump #WarOnDrugs #CORRUPTION #PoliceBrutality #PoliceReform #Police #Thread #BREAKING #BreakingNews

nzz.ch/international/…

A group of young migrants from Guatemala are brutally murdered in northern Mexico.
On the night of January 22nd to 23rd, abruptly on a country road outside the town of Camargo. The police found 19 bullet-riddled and carbonized bodies next to two burned-out cars. Some are said to have been cut up.
It is still unclear what exactly happened that night. The 17-year-old Robelsi was with fourteen other young migrants from Guatemala as well as two coyotes (smugglers) and two local guides when they came across twelve police officers from a special unit in the state of Tamaulipas.

29.01/ Week twenty-nine thread, for Jan. 30-Feb. 5, 2021, begins here. Last week's thread (28.01) linked below.

29.02/ Every once in a while, I let the depraved fatalism of the phrase "boys will be boys" just wash over me...
29.03/ Snow still following here in Central NJ, with some swirling wind, allowing me to use the word "snow squalls" at the breakfast table. My 14yo suggested that if the wind is strong enough to dislodge squirrels, it'd be "squirralls of snow." Yup.

L.A. County has 88 cities, each w/ a mayor and city council.
Los Angeles is the most populous county in the United States, with more than 10 million inhabitants as of 2018. It is the largest non–state-level govt entity in the United States.
1/3
Its population is greater than that of 41 individual U.S. states. It includes the Port of L.A. and LAX.
It has over 10,000 police.
@MayorOfLA Instead of increasing the LAPD budget 40% for more overtime, why not hire more mental health workers, retrain officers and open..
2/
...community based units instead of rewarding exhausted, tired, overworked and short tempered Police with overtime?

Just a thought.

Trump has already spent several minutes interrupting and arguing with the moderator, and he's thrown out a racial slur.

Wallace: "Mr. President, can you please let him finish?"

Joe "He doesn't know how to do that." 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
#Debates2020 #PresidentialDebate #BidenCoalition
Joe: "Will you shut up? Keep yapping, man."

YES 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Biden rolling his eyes, laughing at Trump, and muttering "God" is all of us.

YES Joe, bring up the "It will disappear, it will be like a miracle".

No, we can't trust Trump. He's tried to muzzle the CDC. He lies every time he opens his mouth.

#PoliceReform: Police are the public’s first interface with the criminal justice system & crime registration is a crucial first step in the process. Not registering a crime fails to deter criminals, thus stymieing the process of justice. (1/n)
The results from our survey on 'Safety Trends And Reporting of Crime' revealed underreporting."This could be because victims themselves refrained from approaching the police [..] or the police did not register the case for various reasons", explain @AvantiDurani & @_NehaSinha.
What are some reasons for not filing an FIR? 30% of respondents felt that the police would not entertain their complaint, in Chennai, 51% mentioned lack of evidence, and in Bengaluru, 35% didn’t want to get tangled in police/court procedures.(3/n)

Our 2017 SATARC survey revealed that 75% to 91% of the people across the four surveyed metropolises—Mumbai, Bengaluru, Chennai and Delhi believed that the police can be relied upon when needed. (2/n)
Close to half the respondents in Bengaluru, 60% in Delhi, a little over three-quarters in Chennai and 70% in Mumbai believed that the police would treat them with respect. (3/n)

I was trained to shoot a Suicide bomber in the head. In 2002 or early 2003, I was a Secret Service agent working in D.C. protecting a “high value” protectee from the Middle East. That was the day the “bomber” approached.” I didn’t shoot. (Thread)
Keep in mind this is happening months after the 9/11 attacks. We are at war and everyone is waiting for that next domestic hit. My protectee was visiting his U.S. ambassador on Mass Ave. (Embassy Row) & the motorcade was in front of the residence.
I was working Protective Intelligence, so I didn’t need to go inside the residence, but rather I remained standing with the motorcade while the protectee was inside. It wasn’t long until I saw the problem coming down the sidewalk.

Mega Thread in English on police violence in the USA.
1/3 of all the people killed by a stranger in the USA are actually killed by a police officer

In March and April of 2020 (during quarantine) the police killed as many people as they did in March and April of 2019 even though people were in their homes and there was a historic
decrease in crime. Despite that the police killed the same number of people at the same rate.

2019 was the first year ever where black people were more afraid of being killed by police than community violence

In Minneapolis (where George Floyd was murdered) black people have 13

Did you know...

That Portland #Police Association (#PPA) President Darryl Turner is also the President of #ORCOPS, the Oregon Coalition of Police & Sheriffs, which he helped launch in 2015?

#PortlandOregon #PortlandOR #PDX #PDXpolice #PoliceUnions #PoliceBrutality #PoliceReform Image
ORCOPS website says "ORCOPS uses the Portland Police Association office as a home base with an on-staff social media manager, in-house communications, and shared resources so our overhead is minimal."
Tom Perkins is the Secretary-Treasurer, who is also from the #PPA.

#pdx #gov ImageImage
#ORCORPS touts itself as saying that their "members are the only law enforcement advocacy group in Oregon with a proven history of influence and representation in the State legislature."

This means they like to be involved in law & policy making.
