Hi Aram, In short order, these podcasts and other information provided are key to finding out how many issues affecting our communities have transpired. Kudos to Ms. Cerise Castle of LA on her informative series. While our group will not specifically comment on what is actively transpiring on our end, we can say we have sorted out for the most part, the political BS and the smokescreens via LE Commanders who are 'in bed' with many politicians and others to cover up the reality of the myrid of issues affecting the one common factual denominator: Systemic problems in LE driving the practice of Civil Rights violations of our various diverse affected communities. We can assure you that our goals are to continue to push for constructive means through legislation for Commanders, Police Chiefs and Sheriffs to be held accountable for their actions which has impacted our community members, previously, now and in the future. Our group also consists of over 300+yrs of LE currently and previously (retired) from various sgencies. We believe they have a STRONG background to collectively identify when 'criminal cops' are the problem in the process of justice being served. This includes Commanders who were/are involved with Civil Rights violations and have/harbor deep rooted beliefs that they should/would uphold, for which they have contributed to the systemic problems. Most in the name of 'reducing crime' and keeping their 'street soldiers' (rank/file) alive and well to do their dirty work, unbeknownst to honest local and state politicians and community members. Our group formed for that very reason and to expose the past of these particular vermin who continue to contribute to systemic problems all while 'disguising themselves under your noses' seemingly 'getting away' with the egregious things they have done in their past (and presently). Our group believes 'you can run, but you can't hide' based on the current situation of those serving/leading throughout many LE agenices. We also want to inform everyone, so that you will not act surprised when in the near future, the problems we KNOW of, are factually exposed. We see those receiving the information via emails, public meetings, etc. So we are well aware of who is getting the information. In December of 2022, President Joe Biden during his speech on anti-semitism, included calling for... "All forms of hate and violence in this Country have no safe harbor in America, Period. President Biden continued on to say that 'Silence is Complicity'. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/biden-denounce-silence-complicity-anti-semitism-2022-12- 19/#:~:text=%22Today%2C%20we%20must%20all%20say,that%20%22silence%20is%20complicity.%22 We truly believe that THIS also INCLUDES those 'leaders' LE who violate the civil rights of our diverse communities. The 'leaders' in LE who are complicit with egregious acts are the ones who keep the systemic problems {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 29     alive and well. This is one of the reasons LASD Sheriff Villanueva was not re-elected. Our group is also working on other means to accelerate the removal of tarnished, corrupt, complicit Commanders so that we all do not have to wait for an election or the resistance of corrupt politicians to remove these cretins. These Commanders must be eliminated from leadership serving LE departments and our communities so that Cities/Counties/Communities across California can heal and become the 'model for LE' to thrive WITH our communities and not against. And, kudos to the current LE leadership who have worked hard to continue and actively combat the problems in their own agencies rather than sit back and 'ignorantly' collect their paycheck. The 'us vs them' is still a problem with many Commanders whose thinking prevents them from overhauling their own minds for today's world, which allows them to thrive in the 'smokescreens' (things they do to make them look 'good') which they provide to you and our communities. As we listened to the 'Tradition of Violence' podcasts, this is exactly what we hear based on our 300+ years of experience, as well as the experience of scholars and community members who contribute their own expertise and experiences to our group. Lastly, everyone reading this email must know that YOUR 'silence is complicity'. We appreciate those who facilitate discussions and keep the issues and problems with LE leadership and past history alive and well. Those who pay attention and know all too well that if one does not understand the history of specific events, are likely to repeat it in their own agencies. We ask that all of you be the conduit to 'weed out' those likely to repeat the problems they were embroiled with. Do NOT rely on a few or less to do this. We hope that one of our local community action groups will step forward to sponsor a future community forum featuring Ms. Cerise Castle and her work to expose the LE problems through her Tradition of Violence podcasts. The issues of the LASD she focuses on are represented here as well, albeit on a smaller scale. Becoming knowledgeable in the new, continuing wave of exposure and transparency is instrumental in how we all can contribute to reducing the problems we face here. We have many civil rights groups and organizations who have relentlessly worked hard for decades to bring about justice and change. We want to acknowledge their work and believe we can work cohesively on different innovative platforms to continue to battle the LE civil rights violations. With more and more great people in LE assisting, will be instrumental in combining the diverse voices for the sake of our future. Start with your own LE agencies, facilitate discussions and keep your ears and eyes wide open. Use your god given vocal capacity to remove yourself from the complicity President Biden and others speak of! Please share!!

She has championed Palestinian rights, including by leading her colleagues to push the U.S. State Department to stop Israel’s forced displacement of hundreds of Palestinian children. Last year, the right-wing group AIPAC and its network of PACs poured millions of dollars into defeating progressive women of color running for Congress who dared to challenge the unjust status quo and shine a light on the Israeli government’s human rights abuses. We know that they’re setting their sights on Cori as we gear up for 2024’s re-election. And progressive Black women candidates have a much harder time raising money to run {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 58     election campaigns, so we especially need your support to withstand right-wing attacks.

Please feel free to read more from yesterday’s email about Cori’s radical love for all humanity, and how she came to understand the connections between Black and Palestinian struggles against state violence. In solidarity, Team Cori {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 59     ---Original Message--- Aram , Cori Bush doesn’t want anyone else to have to go through what she’s gone through. That’s what fuels her activism and her policymaking, and it’s why she speaks up for people who have felt voiceless. She’s been assaulted by the police. She’s been evicted and forced out onto the streets to live in a car with her two children. As Cori has said, she wouldn’t wish these traumas on anybody. That’s why she camped out on the steps of Congress day and night and succeeded in delaying evictions for millions of Americans. And it’s why for years, Cori has spoken out against the Israeli government for stealing and destroying Palestinians’ homes while brutalizing and killing Palestinian families. Cori cares about people, governing from a place of radical love for all humanity. That threatens right-wing groups like AIPAC, which want to maintain the status quo. AIPAC and its affiliated groups have spent millions to defeat progressive women of color, including Cori—even though women of color running for federal office often have much less cash on hand than other candidates.[1] We don’t take money from corporate PACs, instead relying on grassroots donations from people like you in order to keep Cori in Congress fighting for all of us. As we gear up for our 2024 re-election campaign, can you donate now to support Cori as she takes courageous stands for equity and human rights in the U.S. and Palestine? CHIP IN TODAY {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 60     As the first member of the movement for Black Lives to be elected to Congress, Cori is unafraid to stand for the people. She first saw the connections between Black and Palestinian struggles against state violence in 2014, when she met with a Palestinian delegation who visited Ferguson Uprising activists to share tips on how to defend themselves from militarized violence and tear gas. During the protests, Palestinians in St. Louis also showed up in support of Black lives, and conversations about their oppression opened her eyes as together they fought for collective liberation. While in Congress, Cori has advocated for marginalized and oppressed people in the U.S. and abroad. She has championed Palestinian rights, including by leading her colleagues to push the U.S. State Department to stop Israel’s forced displacement of hundreds of Palestinian children. In the past month, Cori made the principled decision to boycott congressional speeches from Israel’s President and India’s Prime Minister for perpetuating human rights abuses. Cori continues to be one of the few members of Congress to legislate with love for all humanity, without exceptions. That’s why she challenges the status quo, and it’s why the right-wing continues to target her. Please chip in $5 or more today to have Cori’s back as she’s targeted for speaking the truth about oppression, including calling out the Israeli government’s apartheid against Palestinians.

Be cautious of opening attachments and clicking on links.  Let me put this as plainly as I can: Palestinians today live under apartheid rule, occupied or governed by a far-right Israeli state whose ruling coalition openly celebrates their killing and displacement. I can write those words because I work for The Intercept. But when Rep. Pramila Jayapal, the chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, said recently that “Israel is a racist state,” the backlash from Congress and the D.C. press was overwhelming. The House of Representatives swiftly responded with a 412-9 vote promising to “always” support Israel, adding, for good measure, that it is not only not a “racist state” but also not an “apartheid state” — never mind what human rights organizations have concluded. At the White House press room, outraged reporters immediately demanded to know if the president would denounce Jayapal. Days later, when the far-right government overrode protests to weaken the independent judiciary, Washington was largely silent. It’s been said that a gaffe is when a politician tells an obvious truth that’s supposed to go unspoken. But journalists are supposed to report unspoken truths — not enforce the official consensus. {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 67     As Israel turns even more sharply toward authoritarianism, The Intercept is one of the few outlets courageous enough to ask the tough questions about U.S. support for occupation and apartheid.

Aram, Apparently the incidents of egregious civil rights violations, such as what happened in this video you posted and the thousands of other untold civil rights violations, continue within the LASD Antelope Valley where the now Santa Clara County Sheriff Bob Jonsen was Commander for Lancaster/Palmdale stations. Sheriff Bob Jonsen was there until 2013 (and when the DOJ investigation findings were disclosed) when he officially left for Menlo Park PD. Clearly, City Officials of Menlo Park and Palo Alto did not vett or even cared about the Civil Rights Violations committed under Bob Jonsen's supervision. And, the Community should have been made aware of this and we bet we would not be having this discussion today. He was the Chief for Menlo Park and Palo Alto PD from 2103 to 2022 where he faced more controversy and complaints over egregious acts committed by his Officers. Refer to the Weebly website below. If Officials would have delved into his background, they would have found more suspicious and sinister behavior, unbecoming of a LASD Sheriff Commander and perhaps quickly changed their minds about bringing in such a person to lead a police dept.in Northern Calif. Now Santa Clara County residents are stuck with him for the time being. We are NOT affiliated with this Weebly website below or the group postings. https://corruptpaloaltopolice.weebly.com/chief-jonsen.html So, apparently WE are not the only ones who recognizes that Sheriff Bob Jonsen packs a lot of baggage with no City or County Official seeming to care. All blinded by awards, certifications, special compassion schools, kudos by ignorant politicians, etc. designed to serve as a 'smokescreen' and its working. We promise that all of you would be disgusted by what Bob Jonsen was involved with including his own son, whom he never publicly speaks of, Travis Jonsen (former LASD Deputy Sheriff).... https://knock-la.com/deputy-gang-tattoo-shot-off/ Bob Jonsen was welcomed in Northern Calif by City Officials who felt they had no responsibility with his background or covered it up to avoid the mistakes they made in hiring {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 74     him. Because there are now multiple investigations with various agencies occuring, we offer no further comment on the complaints filed. And, hopefully for everyone else involved, including those complicit, and not just Bob Jonsen, that justice will be served. We want Bob Jonsen to be recalled and held responsible for what he has done and been involved with during his career at the LASD. Hoping this happens sooner than later! And not from the deep pockets of a City or County paying with Taxpayers money. There is absolutely no accountability for responsibility when Cities and Counties do this. And because of this, the systemic problems in LE stay alive and well, courtesy of cities and counties and all are complicit. And silence is complicity. Below are some of the links for the DOJ Civil Rights Viols reports that will shed some light on partially what/why Bob Jonsen ran away from and a lot more that he is running away from. As the posts from Aram continue, we will have the opportunity to respond with many more articles that will give everyone an idea of WHY our group formed and why we need Bob Jonsen out. Trust us in that we were not made fully aware of the gravity of incidents Bob Jonsen has been involved with until AFTER the elections.

Be cautiousof opening attachments and clicking on links.       Tonight begins Tisha B’Av, or the Ninth of Av, a day of sadness and mourning in which the Jewish community recounts the many tragedies that have befallen the Jewish people, including the destruction of the Second Temple followed by two millennia of exile in the diaspora. The Rabbis of the Talmud blamed the destruction of the Temple on Sinat Chinam or baseless hatred - the concept of hating another person or group of people for no good reason. What started as disagreements between Jews escalated into mistreatment of one another, and eventually the Temple was destroyed, ultimately leaving the Jewish people without a spiritual or literal home. Sinat Chinam comes in many forms. Racism, Misogyny, and Antisemitism are examples of Sinat Chinam. What starts as political or religious disagreement can turn into Sinat Chinam if we don’t take care to stop it. Many Israelis both in the US and in Israel are connecting this political moment (the Knesset vote on the Reasonableness Law) with historic traumas commemorated by Tisha B’Av by posting on social media with the words “Shisha B’Av” meaning the 6th of Av - the Day of the vote. This is clear play on Tisha B’Av. What they are saying is that this is a moment to take the internal crisis in Israel seriously- it impacts us all. {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 79     The mission of the JCRC is to educate, to advocate, and to collaborate with others toward promotion and defense of freedom, justice, tolerance and equal opportunity on behalf of the Jewish Community so as to ensure a strong democracy and a vibrant Jewish presence in the Silicon Valley. Our commitment to strengthening democracy is not limited to the geographical space occupied by Silicon Valley. We understand that a strong democracy both in the US and in Israel is essential to ensure a secure, diverse, and thriving Jewish Community. Consensus decisions are essential in a healthy democracy and the decision on the reasonableness law was made without consensus. More than 800 UnXeptable protesters marched in solidarity across the Mary Street Bridge in Sunnyvale on Sunday and several hundred rallied in front of the Israeli Consulate in San Francisco yesterday. The protesters continue to sing Hatikva. The voices calling for the preservation of Israel’s Democracy and a commitment to consensus are not just Israeli. Senator Scott Weiner, a member of the Jewish Legislative Caucus, released a statement speaking out against what he called the “Netanyahu government’s attack on Israel’s independent judiciary.” “Israel must be a democracy and a place where the rule of law is paramount,” Wiener said. The Jewish Federations of North America released a statement saying they “are deeply pained over the growing polarization we have witnessed in Israeli society as a result of the judicial reform process. We are also extremely disappointed that the leaders of the coalition moved ahead with a major element of the reforms without a process of consensus, despite the serious disagreements across Israeli society and the efforts of President Herzog to arrive at a compromise.” Members of the Silicon Valley Jewish Community will be gathering at Congregation Sinai this evening at 8:30pm to chant the Megillat Eichah (Book of Lamentations). If you have never heard this chanting you might want to consider joining. If you prefer to pray with your feet, you might consider joining an UnXeptable rally.

Hello Aram, Will inquire within our LE group and sources. We hate to have SJPD embarrassed over Chief Binder promoting someone whom SJPD would never promote. We say this because Chief Binder came from SJPD. We will find out from our sources soon and let everyone know. Keep in mind, our main focus is the Santa Clara County Sheriff and exposing his years of civil rights violations and why he should not be the Sheriff and recalled. Our immediate response with Captain Perron is that knowing the history of the N word in addition to his reference using the N word to describe a population of people 'who can't swim'. Our assessment is only Bigots/Racists will not come forward to do better. They are not interested. Those who are not the Bigots/Racists who tarnish LE everyday, will put some time within the community to not only educate himself but to educate the community about the sad statistics with black/brown drownings and what he has learned from that because of what he 'jokingly' said. That is something most of us can forgive but not forget. There is NEVER any justification to 'preface and jokingly' speak of black people with a highly derogatory and inciteful word. We would find truth and honesty by his candidly and publicly addressing the issues. However, IF this is not his reality, we do not feel Mr. Perron is worthy of any promotion, especially to assistant Chief, and in considering and doing so, verifies the bigotry and systemic problem that keeps racism alive and well in LE and particularly within the PAPD. We hope that the people will see this as an opportunity to speak their minds publicly if this is a strong consideration. IF you all want strong changes in LE, you do not need to wait for laws to compel such changes! Its the actions you take to prevent this from happening. {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 88     Actions speak louder than words.

So he was not demoted, but promoted. Not surprising. The Chief who promoted him ought to be ashamed but probably not. Why was he promoted? That's a tongue in cheek question. We know why... It was to elevate his status to Captain Bigot. Seriously, please do not hide him behind any 'track record' or he 'made a mistake'. We know MOST Commanders are good friends with each other and cut from the same cloth. In reviewing several articles and knowing the processes used to protect command staff personnel is nothing to be surprised about. They are the dirtiest ones in any Dept. And, the street cops who are selected as soldiers from commanders, to do the dirty work are dispensable and replaceable. So if any of you think your dept racist problem is solved by getting rid of the street cops, think again. Its the Commanders you need to get rid of. We have a strong group of active/retired cops, so we know what we speak of. And come from many depts, large and small from around the Bay Area. Our Actions speak LOUDER than words and believe us that our group is growing and thanks to our MANY civilian partnerships, we hope to be productive in weeding out those who keep systemic problems alive and well. The predecessors who have all skated into permanent retirement have left and kept their mark in the cretins we see today. We know many of you are on this email thread and know exactly what we are talking about. We have worked with all the LE folks on this email thread. {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 90     Once again, since this post is the focus of Mr. Perron, because in our opinion now, we don't feel he earns the right to be called 'Captain'. Mr. Perron, what have you done within the black community to correct what you said? What have you done to take personal responsibility? No threat in speaking up. What you said is not in dispute and you know you cannot be fired. Like double jeopardy. You know. So, doing the right thing, redemption and education is what makes you a better leader. We would be satisfied to know that you took positive steps than defensive actions. Nothing you say that is positive can be held against you. So do the right thing and perhaps folks on here would stop their attack. Your City leaders are probably emailing you not to say anything, esp your Chief. His background isn't so stellar either. One of these days, you will cross paths with someone from our group in a public meeting and I hope you will answer honestly with the direction that most people of color would want to know. That's at least what we'd like to hear and that you can seek the changes that should be made, so that black/brown communities can trust you.

You have elegantly asked when will he be shown the door. You have broken the silence on this ongoing scandal and called out our city officials who have remained silent and complicit in allowing Perron to remain as a member of an ALL WHITE COMMAD STAFF. When Perron spewed his vile racist hate, in 2004, he held the rank of Lieutenant. Not only was Perron not instantly fired for his unacceptable racist behavior but shortly there after he was rewarded for his behavior by a promotion to Captain. This story sounds much like the policing strategy that routinely took place in police departments in the deep south of this country during the 1950s. Keep speaking out!

We have a great idea, get rid of the current Palo Alto Police Chief and replace him with Chief Ford. Clearly the diversity of the Palo Alto PD is not a priority. Anyone from Palo Alto who thinks the diversity of the Dept should reflect your community? Sit down! There's your problem right there. We are guessing the lack of diversity gave Capt Perron the Green Light to run his bigot mouth. Really? You tell a black officer that? And who else knows what he had told the other officers in reference to people in our black/brown communities? We'd hate to see the text messages from the PAPD Officers. And we agree with Aram, Cretins such as this {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 92     Captain, at some point, are the responsibility of City leaders for who they hire and complicit in the egregious actions of people like him. A slap on the hand is justified? vs showing him the door. Yes, we are quite aware of the process. Was he even demoted? Captain Perron: Joking or not, you are a grown azz man and not an uneducated child. And the stats for people of color who drown are a sad statistic to mock with your bigot joking. What have you done to educate and prevent drownings amongst people of color? What as an Officer for the community have you done to educate about water safety amongst the communities of color. What have you done other than run your mouth and sulk about your hand slap? You clearly know the grim stats by insinuating black people can't swim. You are the expert, then get your butt out in the community and do better. If we are stuck with you at PAPD, then you should do something to educate yourself and others about what you meant. Otherwise you are an unapologetic bigot. Actions speak louder than words. Kudos to the Officer who walked away and left. Just like Chief Ford. In these cases, if you can't beat em, join 'em, did not win over with these two fine officers who know that bigotry sleeps with each other and not with them. We wish them well in their future and hope any agency to have them should be proud that they are not packing dirt and bigotry in their backgrounds unlike some leaders we know of.

What have you done other than run your mouth and sulk about your hand slap? You clearly know the grim stats by insinuating black people can't swim. You are the expert, then get your butt out in the community and do better. If we are stuck with you at PAPD, then you should do something to educate yourself and others about what you meant. Otherwise you are an unapologetic bigot. Actions speak louder than words. Kudos to the Officer who walked away and left. Just like Chief Ford. In these cases, if you can't beat em, join 'em, did not win over with these two fine officers who {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 120     know that bigotry sleeps with each other and not with them. We wish them well in their future and hope any agency to have them should be proud that they are not packing dirt and bigotry in their backgrounds unlike some leaders we know of.

And you can bet the units will go to the few who are clever and persistent -- not the many who are dying on the streets. And you can bet the units are much more lavish than necessary.

But the bureaucrats produced by our colleges had that torn down. If this is their best thinking, then I say "cut off their money!"

Be cautiousof opening attachments and clicking on links. The San Jose Spotlight has demonstrated a complete abdication of commitment to truth and accuracy. The only statements less reliable than those written by the journalists (many/most of whom are independent contractors rather than employees) are the statements made by the folks who comment after the articles. I am not saying that all journalism is fake news, obviously. Lately I have been very impressed with the calibre of coverage in the Washington Post, Wall Street Journal and even often the Palo Alto Daily Post, the San Jose Spotlight does not appear to have many controls or fact-checkers under its new ownership/management. MHO. In this case, assuming that the SJ Spotlight's statement that San Jose has a $1.5 million contract with Life Moves through July, 2024 is correct, it does not follow that all that money will be spent on RV Parks. San Jose (thankfully!) is in the process of working with LifeMoves and transitional housing providers (e.g. Dignity Moves) to create at least one, hopefully more, transitional housing developments that can provide transitional housing to as many as 1000 unhoused individuals each, over the course of the next several years. That works out to a far better deal on the part of the city of San Jose. I agree that there is a massive amount of corruption in local government, but I think it's hard to deny that the most of the corruption hangs out at the huge overpriced contracts, where it can hide in plain sight and doesn't have to pretend to be a 501c3 (per below, Life Moves is both legit and awesome). For example ... There happens to be an unprecedented huge project being pursued by the govt agency I was elected to oversee, Valley Water District. Valley Water, despite any buy-in or financial participation from other water districts, and despite a recent devastating court order invalidating its authorizing documents (its environmental impact report, or "EIR") -- continues to insist that it intends to spend $10 billion dollars of *Santa Clara County* taxpayer money alone to build a Dam that has never penciled out financially and that has already caused massive harm to the Amah Mutsun band of tribes, to the local ecosystems, and to land held by private property owners (and a state park!), all of whom are opposed to project. Despite all this, Valley Water is still spending millions of dollars on this project. Why? To whom? More info heree https://socalwatersierraclub.org/pacheco-dam-a-prop-1-zombie- project/ and here https://stoppachecodam.org/ And although these articles state that Valley Water has put the project on hold, e.g.: https://stoppachecodam.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/3B-Calif.-Dam-Project- {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 131     That-Violated-State-Law-At-A-Crossroad-Law360-Real-Estate-Authority-1.pdf ..the money keeps flowing out of Valley Water towards consultants, vendors, etc etc etc to further this Zombie Project (as the Sierra Club aptly calls it). I have been asking as many questions as I can as a member of the elected oversight Board, but it's hard to have time to spend on this, considering that Valley Water has been taking up most of my time with their ceaseless 8-month "discrimination against men" they continue to pursue against me for having made comments including the eminently true observations that the world I willingly stepped into always has been, and continues to be, a boys' club. In the meantime, I hope you will join me in supporting LIfeMoves, a very well- regarded local nonprofit with a stellar record and reputation: https://www.lifemoves.org/ Thanks, Rebecca On Thu, Jul 20, 2023 at 6:34 PM Aram James <abjpd1@gmail.com> wrote: Hi Linda, Thanks so much for your very thoughtful comments and your permission to share them with a wider audience.

Rashida Tlaib joined several progressive Members of Congress in boycotting the Israeli President’s address to Congress, protesting a government that systematically violates Palestinians’ human rights. Because of her leadership in support of Palestinians’ human rights, GOP leaders and others have denounced Rashida this week. She’s had to defend the very humanity of Palestinians like her grandmother. As the only Palestinian American in Congress, Rashida isdefending human rights for all people, with no exceptions. Canyou donate today to have Rashida’s back as she faces attacks forher leadership on Palestinian freedom? CHIP IN NOW {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 136     It shouldn’t be bold to speak out against arming oppressors or funding apartheid. When violence occurs at the hand of the state against marginalized communities anywhere, our political leaders should speak up. But Democrats and Republicans alike keep policing women of color in Congress who dare to speak the truth about Israel’s apartheid regime, including policing Rashida. They’re out of line with the views of the American people, as polls continue to show a growing shift in support of Palestinian rights and against our government’s unconditional funding of Israel’s human rights abuses. As U.S. legislators ignore their base and try to silence legitimate criticism of the Israeli government’s racist and oppressive policies, Rashida’s bold voice and leadership are more necessary in Congress now than ever.

Sad that some of our own members have witnessed first hand the bigotry this produces within a culture of people. It's because of this situation that we strongly encourage and believe in "diversifying the diversity" within your workforce, organizations, sports and social clubs. For many of you, just because you think you have tackled the "diversity issue" within your circles, that's as bad a meeting a 'quota'. Yes, 'quota'. Many are guilty of this also. Just because you meet a 'percentage' of what your communities reflect, doesn't mean you stop there, unless you yourself do not agree with full diversity. And, no, you do not need to hide behind 'laws, ordinances and other legislation". You just have to be a strong leader and know how to defeat bigotry. We are guessing many of you do not, given the ongoing problems in your agencies and organizations. We see the complaints every day. It's about education and learning that diversity is not only about having others with a different background, culture, race, ethnicity from yours, but of being able to bring people from all walks of life together and learn about respect for others. It does not stop with you. Diversify the diversity in your workforce can and will avoid a lot problems that lead to systemic issues harmful to our communities. People complain about LE all the time. Yes and that is great. But do not forget, systemic problems and abuse is in every profession including yours! Action speak louder than words. Its time to clean up and take out the trash that holds hands not only with LE, but with some of you.

Be cautiousof opening attachments and clicking on links. FYI: Hi Sean, On behalf of the Sheriff Transparency Group, we applaud you for speaking up as well as putting yourself out there on other issues that are hot topics for LE (Weaponized Canines, Tasers, Excessive Force, etc). Thank you for the continued dialogue into what you have experienced and what had transpired that keeps the stronghold of bigotry and hate alive and well in the SCC Sheriff Office. We all need to hear from those who have experienced first hand, esp those from LE. The FACT that there are still the toxic folks employed who caused a lot of problems for the culture of the department is perhaps one of the most egregious (and systemic) issues not being tackled by the County and the current Sheriff. The FACT that Commanders who worked under the corrupt Sheriff Laurie Smith, still in place, because the current Sheriff feels they are great people doing a good job (strange how this assessment came so quickly after the election), and see no need to re-organize, shows not only the ignorance of someone with a questionable past themselves, but also the lackluster of a 'leader' perhaps paying back a favor or homage to a previous Sheriff who created the environment that has caused great harm within the department/operations and for our community. Of course, the current Sheriff will 'see' none of this because of the environment (LASD) he was born in and came from, commanding within the LASD in the Antelope Valley for several years. As evident by the civil rights violations that occurred during his tenure and that of his own questionable background, it is no doubt a horrific mixture to continue with the toxicity breed by the previous Sheriff. As for the DA Chief Mo Reyes, yes, agreed. When you have an (DA) Office that has been wrought with historically racist, offensive and deviant employees, the justice process for the community is not only seriously flawed, but a process that will not be fair or equitable for victims or those accused (and that is why cases are reviewed and tossed when cretins in LE rear their ugly heads). We have members in our group who have suffered this as both victims and accused, {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 153     knowing all too well that what you have shared will always be alive and well systemically unless the current leadership can be brave enough to send bigotry packing (and not just collecting a paycheck or for political bravado). We do not believe this is possible as demonstrated by what our own community members and our group members have experienced and continue to experience. This is why we have found other means to seek justice through other agencies because the SCC DA and Sheriff cannot do their job as expected by the community and as balanced with their own agencies/employees. We hope that many of you on this thread will share your thoughts and solutions. We know that the current Chiefs/Sheriff on this email thread will not speak up. Because we know ONLY honesty speaks up. In addition, we hope that those who have allowed their past to dictate their minds with hate and bigotry with supporting that nonsense through the employees within and on the streets, realize that our goal is to be RID of you and the others so that the overall health of our communities and those under your thumbs can heal and move on without anymore fear, hate and disrespect from you and your agencies. Feel free to message us, reply, etc to share in the discussion and any questions you may have. And, we want to wholeheartedly THANK those who have replied with thank-yous, sentiments, thoughts, etc. We may not reply to you individually, but just KNOW that we accept your replies with compassion and heartfelt thanks that you are listening and understanding of our goals. We do not expect anyone to accept anything we say and we know that we are speaking from not only opinions when appropriate but personal LE experiences that are shared by many in our communities who are afraid to speak up. What we will not tolerate are any threats, retaliation, etc. If you think we have no real sources to report and handle, think twice. There are other legit agencies, organizations and folks who will aggressively investigate issues and causes destroying our communities at your hands. It may not be as quick as your agency has dealt with using coverups, but we again, will assure you, time is on our side. If we can speak up and handle the issues fairly, eloquently but firmly, then we will achieve our goals. Actions speak louder than words.

Chief Reyes was a police supervisor at the SJPD (many of you don't know, the official home of 'racial profiling') for many years before retiring and taking a position with the DA Investigations division before moving up to the top spot for DA Investigations. What is disapointing to us is that while many in our group personally know Chief Reyes, it is sad to know that a hispanic person with a high rank stoops low to bigotry. Again not surprising given the 'general' views of hispanic/latino people towards people of color (brown/black) and other under represented human beings. Fyi, Chief Reyes is racially 'white'. He is obviously not your dark skinned hispanic person subject to the bigotry most people of color face. We recently personally spoke with him about a case that needed to be investigated but feared conflict of interest within Santa Clara County and was seeking guidance from him on the direction from DA Rosen. After our meeting, our group felt a sense of uneasiness with Chief Reyes and possible retaliatory issues involving our victim and members of our group. We decided not to send the information he requested about our victim and the evidence available. This was about a month before the findings against Chief Reyes was disclosed. Many in our group are active/retired LE. It is that "6th sense" that caused us to run the other way (police running from the police) and seek guidance from the Attorney General. Folks, this is what we are dealing with in Santa Clara County. We can ASSURE you that Chief Reyes is not the only one in command with bigotry in his mouth and soul. They need to be shown the door ASAP! If we are to heal from years and years of civil rights violations, we must remove toxicity at the top. We must have leaders with a compassionate, fair and clean background free from a questionable past and present. They did their time in LE and got away with perhaps egregious activity that would be cause for dismissal today and/or jail time. {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 169     Please keep your eyes, ears and attention to this open.

Be cautious of openingattachments and clicking on links.  Aram , Last week, the Israeli military escalated its brutal attacks on West Bank’s Jenin refugee camp, bombing and killing civilians (including children), blocking medical assistance for wounded Palestinians, shooting journalists, firing on hospitals where families sought refuge, and destroying essential roads, water and sewage lines, and 80% of the homes in the area. UN officials expressed shock at the destruction and trauma in Jenin, reporting that children in the refugee camp are now afraid to leave their homes.[1] Without international condemnation, Israel will continue escalating violence and traumatizing generations of Palestinians. Prime Minister Netanyahu said this would “not be a one-time action.” Although these war crimes were aided by U.S. weapons and taxpayer dollars, President Biden has not criticized the invasion. Instead the White House released a statement supporting Israel’s “right to defend” itself.[2] {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 190     To be clear, there are not two equal sides here. Occupying military powers do not have legal rights to “defend” themselves against the people they control. The UN Secretary-General reiterated this when responding to last week’s assault on Jenin, noting that “Israel, as the occupying power… has the responsibility to ensure that the [Palestinian] civilian population is protected against all acts of violence.”[3] The people in Jenin’s refugee camp were made refugees after 1948’s Nakba, where 800,000 Palestinians were forced out of their homelands. Israel’s far-right leaders have called for another Nakba, but the Nakba never ended, with Israel’s government continuing to terrorize and oppress the Palestinian people—who are not allowed to escape or even become citizens. Our country funds this violent apartheid regime. When our political leaders stay silent, we dehumanize Palestinians and enable more horror. Add your name if you agree: We need more members of Congressand members of the Biden administration to speak out andcondemn Israel’s increasing attacks on Palestinians. ADD YOUR NAME Thank you for continuing to act for Palestinian liberation. In solidarity, Rashida [1] The destruction was shocking, says high-level UNRWA officials after visiting Jenin refugee camp [2] Israel Killed Civilians, Targeted Hospitals in Jenin With US Weapons and Support {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 191     [3] Israel-Palestine: UN chief strongly condemns mounting violence, acts of terror ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Rashida Tlaib Date: Sat, July 8, 2023 Subject: Sign to condemn Israel’s attacks on West Bank cities To: abjpd1@gmail.com Aram , This week, the Israeli military escalated its recent deadly raids on West Bank cities, bombing the city of Jenin and killing children in a refugee camp. The people who were forced to flee from the Jenin refugee camp this week have been made refugees multiple times. They descend from families who came to Jenin during the 1948 Nakba, when violent militias forcibly removed close to 800,000 Indigenous Palestinians from their homelands. Clearly, the Israeli government is still trying to displace and erase Palestinians. For multiple days this week, Israeli soldiers in Jenin blocked medical assistance for wounded Palestinians by bulldozing roads, and fired on hospitals where families sought refuge. They destroyed 80% of Palestinian homes, cut off water and electricity, and shot at journalists. Remember: When the military murdered beloved Palestinian American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh last year, she was covering a military raid on Jenin. Attacks on Jenin have continued up through last week, and then again this week. The U.S. government can and must hold Israel accountable for these ongoing war crimes. The Biden administration and Congress can refuse to send billions of our tax dollars to the Israeli military each year. At minimum, they can speak out and condemn these human rights violations. Add your name to tell Congress and the Biden administration: {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 192     Condemn this week’s war crimes, and speak out against Israel’sattacks on West Bank cities. ADD YOUR NAME Official military attacks have escalated dramatically this year, as have attacks by Israeli settlers. Top Israeli government officials have called for “another Nakba” and have openly supported increasingly horrific and frequent settler-led pogroms, where Israelis kill Palestinians and destroy their homes. To be clear: This is not a “conflict” between two equal sides, or between two countries. Israel’s powerful government and military keep terrorizing and oppressing the Palestinian people, who are not allowed to escape or even become citizens. This is an apartheid regime enacting ethnic cleansing and war crimes with American backing, bulldozers, and bullets. Meanwhile, U.S. officials keep trying to silence criticism of Israel. They tried to block a UN event this year commemorating the Nakba, and U.S. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy tried to stop an event about the Nakba on Capitol Hill. These attempts have failed, and will continue to fail as long as we keep speaking out. But too many U.S. officials stay silent, and this inaction enables the Israeli government to continue colonizing Palestinians with impunity. Without condemnation, Israel will continue to escalate violence, killing more Palestinians than last year—which was the deadliest year so far. We cannot allow this unbearable status quo to continue. Add your name if you agree: We need more members of Congress {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 193     and members of the Biden administration to speak out andcondemn Israel’s increasing attacks on Palestinians. ADD YOUR NAME Thank you for taking action. We will keep fighting until Palestinians can live freely, with human dignity and equal rights.

Getty Images Aram, this week Israeli military forces launched the largest and most intense military attack in the occupied West Bank in nearly 20 years — on a refugee camp.1 Following a military attack by Israeli forces in Jenin refugee camp, at least twelve Palestinians and one Israeli soldier were killed and nearly one hundred injured, according to news reports. Thousands of people were woken up in the middle of the night and forced to flee from their bedrooms and homes in a matter of minutes. The scene in Jenin has been compared to a natural disaster. Air strikes have destroyed homes and critical infrastructure. Electricity poles are toppled and there is no access to water. Flattened cars and piles of rubble line the scorched streets. {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 224     Amnesty’s research plays a vital role in documenting testimonies and evidence in attacks like these. Please rush an emergency donation to fuel Amnesty’s research into violations of human rights and international humanitarian law in the Occupied Palestinian Territories and in Israel. MAKE AN EMERGENCY GIFT This latest attack reflects the deadly cost of the Israeli government’s system of apartheid that Amnesty has documented over years. If we fail to hold Israeli authorities accountable, they will continue to have free rein to segregate, control, and dominate Palestinians on a daily basis, and perpetuate human rights abuses, suffering, and bloodshed. Last year was one of the deadliest years for Palestinians in the occupied West Bank since at least 2005, with some 153 Palestinians, including dozens of children, killed by Israeli forces, mostly in the context of increased military raids and arrest operations.2 Amnesty’s research has shown that the Israeli government has created and maintains laws, policies, and practices that deliberately oppress Palestinians wherever it has control over their rights: in Israel, the OPT, and against displaced refugees by denying their right to return.3 This system of domination amounts to the crime of apartheid under international law — and we MUST act swiftly to end it.

Be cautiousof opening attachments and clicking on links. Again, no surprises here. Happens all the time with black officers in every law enforcement agency across the USA. Number of black officers are sadly dwindling. The outreach and recruitment by Sheriffs and Chiefs of Police have literally disappeared because of their 'fear' of the changes with affirmative action and now worse with the recent Supreme Court ruling which they will use as an excuse when hiring and cover up their real biases. Blame the Department’s Command, but also blame the community and the likes of folks on this email who do nothing but complain or worse do nothing and watch. Actions speak louder than words. You are all aware of that. A diverse department is still much better than a homogenous one. Yet those will continue to relish in their complicit behavior, either complaining that does not help with affecting change or sitting back and doing nothing. No assistance with recruitment, no assistance with extending the reach of local agencies into their own communities with encouragement and assistance to potential applicants, even through the tough and tenuous issues. We have many in our group who are not in LE, who volunteered for police interview panels, who recommended and followed those through the hiring process to ensure they were treated fairly and appropriately, etc, etc. It is clear to us that the egregious behavior to other LE Officers different from "you" is deserved because they chose to wear the same uniform. They have/had clear intentions to actually effect positive change in a manner that puts them front and center. That's what communities thrive on. What about you? We appreciate and respect changemakers. They, whether civilian or LE, will be the REAL difference in our future with LE not those who complain or sit back and collect a big paycheck. Maybe dig deep down to earn it and a make a difference. Support your local black LE Officers and potential applicants! {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 232     SCCSTG On Wed, Jul 5, 2023, 4:51 PM Aram James <abjpd1@gmail.com> wrote: https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2023-07-05/black-lapd-officer-was-making-film- while-off-duty-then-he-says-he-was-racially-profiled-his-own-department Sent from my iPhone {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 233     From:Aram James To:Council, City; Jethroe Moore; Sean Allen; Kaloma Smith; Human Relations Commission; Josh Becker; Jeff Rosen; Reifschneider, James; Human Relations Commission; Jay Boyarsky; Shikada, Ed; Shana Segal; Joe Simitian; Cindy Chavez; Supervisor Susan Ellenberg; Cecilia Taylor; Robert.

Here is another link from body worn camera... https://www.foxla.com/news/la-county-cop-slams-woman-lancaster News outlets fueling the divide with one stating the call was for robbery while another stated it was shoplifting doesn't help with the situation. Its called fact finding and putting out the correct information. That (robbery or other felonious crime posing a community threat) could change the dynamics of the approach, old or young, sick or healthy...of the Deputies response and any resistance met upon arrival. Because age and physical condition no longer becomes a factor to handle a situation that could potentially become dangerous or deadly, armed or not. Furthermore, if loss prevention agents from Winco peacefully escorted the couple out, how did this escalate so quickly? Many in our group are active and retired LE and in their initial analysis, average community members are not trained to de-esculate or mediate with LE. The man with the woman can be heard saying "just cooperate" to the lady. Easier said than done in the heat of the moment and especially if someone is suffering from illness, confusion, impairment or disorder. LE are the ones who need to de-esculate not the person involved. In watching the body worn camera we can clearly see where this situation was not handled appropriately based on our group's collective training and experience of over 200yrs. So, if Deputies kept a hands off approach for potentially a citable misdemeanor offense of allegedly shoplifting a cake, (and not Robbery and no further details).. what would be the harm in asking the woman to step away from the patrol car, produce ID, and tell her side of what happened inside the store with loss prevention agents? Last time we checked, many patrol officers work an 8, 10, 12hr shift. What's the hurry here? She is maintaining she or the man didn't do anything wrong. That's someone you are going to have to engage in a discussion before you think they are going to agree with hands on. {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 242     Our group has been met with same statements and were able to de-esculate and mediate and finish their job of writing a citation or taking someone safely into custody in a majority of low level situations without the need to rush a situation and/or resort to use of force. So, now our question is what was the background of the people detained (warrants, multiple offenses, felonies, etc) and the goals of the Deputies at the moment where they had to escalate the situation? The reason why we are heavily discussing this is because Lancaster and the Antelope Valley had been under investigation before and had been found to repeatedly commit civil rights violations. They have history. The LASD had 10yrs to make the required changes. That's long enough to see a pattern of changes take place for effective law enforcement and way better than it was before. We see Mr. Bob Jonsen is in this email thread. Perhaps he can elaborate from his own experience since he came from the Antelope Valley where Lancaster is located. Wishful thinking as we are sure he will not comment. Again, our goal here is to focus on Sheriffs and Chiefs of Police whose backgrounds are part of the systemic problems for their agencies. We need to have stronger consequences for the Commanders of LE agencies to avoid future problems. Those in LE all know too well...' Not IF something will happen, but WHEN'. And WHEN would be the time when you KNOW how to do your job. Firing the Deputy in the case will do very little to address the problem at the top. Remember, just because there may be less egregious circumstances in Santa Clara County, we are currently experiencing a paradigm, generational shift in LE and young impressionable recruits are molded by the rank/file, and influenced in many ways by the Commander at the top. Find us anyone in LE who has spent a significant amount of time in LE rank/file who will agree. OR, look no further than the LASD and its cast of bad actors (active, retired and elsewhere in the top seat throughout the USA).

To us, this appears to be another example of what the previous commanders did not resolve with training or not hiring bad people. They set the precedent and left to spread their toxicity elsewhere. We have proof of that. Trust us, this is not the only situation that has happened in the past 10yrs in the Antelope Valley to question the training and tactics of LE. Our recommended resolve is to be rid of these systemic disasters who call themselves leaders. There are plenty of reasons to do so. Just ask us. For City and County Officials afraid of lawsuits, your biggest fear is from innocent people being thrashed by rogue cops who do not know how to handle their calls. You should have no fear of the leadership you hire or were voted in, to fire or recall them for the many reasons that would justify it. It is our goal to see to it that these Commanders, especially in Santa Clara County, are held accountable no matter WHEN they did any egregious acts or failure to take action or resolve problems anytime in their career. They are the reasons for systemic problems that lead to unfortunate incidents such as this. Since its a Holiday and we are not in the office, we will follow up to this email with attaching the DOJ Civil Rights report and the LA County attorney report tomorrow. You all have a stake in reading up on this! It is mind boggling that those tasked with hiring Mr. Bob Jonsen for MPD and PAPD did not do their due diligence. If they had, we would not be 'stuck' with a Sheriff who has personally, professionally and systemically been a problem with the last 3 agencies he has commanded as well as ALIGN himself with those who {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 248     has been formally accused or convicted of corruption including the previous Sheriff Laurie Smith. Feel free to forward! In fact, we encourage it so that you can engage in the necessary discussions to be rid of LE problems. We appreciate changemakers and not those who stand or sit on the sidelines acting as if this does not involve them. Complicity can be a debatable subject, but if you are a public official, not so much.

Apparently they didn't learn nothing since the DOJ Civil Rights report released in 2013 and the lawsuits and mandated changes that followed. Lancaster was the area that the current Santa Clara County Sheriff, Bob Jonsen came from and the Commander during the Civil Rights investigation in which he conveniently left in 2013 to become Chief in Menlo Park when the report was released. The investigation occurred during his command. If one carefully reads the report and the changes they were compelled to make from the follow up report with the LA County Attorney Office, it does not include throwing people on the ground under the circumstances such as this case as we see it.

Be cautious of openingattachments and clicking on links.  Equal Justice Society web banner California Reparations Task Force Unveils Comprehensive Final Proposals to the Legislature Regarding Reparations for African {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 270     Americans All of us at the Equal Justice Society congratulate our President Lisa Holder on the completion of her two-year term on the historic California Reparations Task Force, which is holding its final meeting now, and the release of its final report and recommendations for redressing the historical atrocities perpetrated against African Americans in California. Lisa was appointed to the Task Force by Gov. Gavin Newsom following his signing of AB 3121, authored by then-Assemblymember Shirley Weber to establish a task force to educate the public about slavery and its history and pernicious aftereffects in California and make recommendations on how the state could provide reparations. The California Task Force to Study and Develop Reparation Proposals for African Americans was the first initiative of its kind by a state government. It spent the past two years documenting how enslavement and its enduring legacy of systemic racism cemented structural inequality. The Reparations Task Force’s final report identifies methodologies for calculating reparations payments to the community of eligibility— descendants of a chattel enslaved person, or descendants of a free Black person living in the United States prior to the end of the 19th Century; and recommends to the Legislature, for its adoption, numerous policy changes directed at redressing each and every aspect of the atrocities perpetrated against African Americans, as well as, a formal apology, and a standard curriculum to help make the history of African Americans as well as the Task Force's findings and recommendations, accessible to people of all ages. Other components of the report include a survey on the implementation of the California Racial Justice Act, a detailed compendium of state and federal laws and cases impacting the rights of African Americans, and a robust community {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 271     engagement process undertaken at the direction of the Task Force. Enacted on September 30, 2020, AB 3121 tasked the Reparations Task Force with studying the institution of slavery in the United States – including the keeping of enslaved persons and enforcement of “Fugitive Slave Acts” in California – and how those actions and structures put in place during the enslavement period and thereafter resulted in a system that relentlessly subjugated African Americans. The report traces this through California’s history into the present and both details the ongoing adverse impacts on living African Americans and presents numerous ideas for policy changes designed to begin the process of repair, with special attention to addressing the specific injuries to descendants of individuals enslaved in the United States. The final report consolidates months of hearings, expert testimony, public comments, witness statements, and an array of records and materials submitted to the task force. The report is organized as follows: Part I details the history of how, 158 years after the abolition of slavery, its badges and incidents remain embedded in the political, legal, health, financial, educational, cultural, environmental, social, and economic systems of California and the United States. Part II discusses the international framework for reparations as established by the United Nations, which requires compensation, restitution, rehabilitation, satisfaction, and guarantees of non- repetition. Part III offers recommendations as to how the State of California should apologize for the state’s perpetration of gross human rights violations against Africans who were enslaved and their descendants. Part IV sets forth methods for calculating some aspects of monetary reparations to address: (a) health disparities, (b) disproportionate African American mass incarceration and over-policing, (c) {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 272     housing discrimination, (d) devaluation of African American businesses; (e) unjust property takings by eminent domain; and (f) labor discrimination. Part V delineates a broad set of more than 115 recommendations to the Legislature for critically needed law and policy reforms to address and redress the harms set forth in Part I and support the other recommendations in the Report. Part VI discusses the results of the DOJ’s survey regarding the implementation of the California Racial Justice Act, which could offer a potentially powerful tool for rooting out and addressing bias in the criminal justice system, including charging decisions, convictions, and sentencing. Part VII includes a report commissioned by the Task Force intended to give the community voice in the conversation concerning reparations, including through listening sessions, collection of personal testimonies and oral histories, and a statewide survey. Part VIII sets forth the Task Force’s recommendation that the Legislature adopt a standard curriculum centered on the Task Force’s findings and recommendations and that the Legislature fund the development and implementation of age-appropriate curricula across all grade levels. Part IX contains a compendium of state and federal laws and cases that demonstrate that from the birth of the nation forward, federal and state constitutional provisions, statutes, and court decisions have sanctioned, enabled, and institutionalized discrimination, on the part of government and private actors, against African Americans.

Ms. Sinunu and her husband, Mr. Towery have been in so many questionable circumstances, how can an entire community trust her? We are not questioning her background as a former prosecutor or her work with the innocence project. We question the potential activities, politically and personally she has been involved with that makes us wonder her ability to remain neutral in her new role. Did any City Council member consider this? Was there a public meeting for input? This is not our issue to monitor this. But in reading the posted article, has any of those opposing this appointment express their input to the City Council rather than the "media court?" Has anyone who opposed the appointment brought forth any suggestions for a neutral, viable candidate without a hazy background? We wonder. -SCCSTG On Thu, Jun 29, 2023, 12:07 AM Aram James <abjpd1@gmail.com> wrote: https://sanjosespotlight.com/san-jose-chooses-new-interim-police-watchdog/ Sent from my iPhone {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 276     From:Aram James To:Julie Lythcott-Haims; Rebecca Eisenberg; Sean Allen; Jethroe Moore; Council, City; Binder, Andrew; Reifschneider, James; Wagner, April; Foley, Michael; Figueroa, Eric; Tannock, Julie; Dave Price; Shikada, Ed; Jeff Rosen; Michael Gennaco; Joe Simitian; Human Relations Commission; Shana Segal; ladoris cordell; chuck jagoda; Perron, Zachary; Enberg, Nicholas; Javier Ortega; Angie Evans; Tina Boales; Mila Zelkha; Supervisor Susan Ellenberg; dennis burns; Kevin Jensen; DuJuan Green; Vara Ramakrishnan; Cecilia Taylor; Greg Tanaka; Cindy Chavez; EPA Today; Gennady Sheyner; Rob Baker; Diana Diamond; Bains, Paul; Jay Boyarsky; Josh Becker Subject:From The Mercury News e-edition - Police officers being put on alert re being permanently decertified to be cops Date:Thursday, June 29, 2023 8:12:27 AM CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization.

Good night, This is pathetic, I have learned that their 3 types of political behavior are internal-external, vertical- lateral and legitimate-illegitimate. This reads like a teenage social media account full of bullying, rumor spreading, and unrealistic views of other people's lives and peer pressure. First it was not Pastor Kaloma Smith as 1 writer claims Director Rebecca Eisenberg supported Reverend Smith and his campaign to open Foothill Park it was myself Rev. Jethroe Moore II. I guess we all look alike. Malcom X said “Conservatism" in America's politics means "Let's keep the niggers in their place." And "liberalism" means "Let's keep the knee-grows in their place-but tell them we'll treat them a little better; let's fool them more, with more promises." With these choices, I felt that the American black man only needed to choose which one to be eaten by, the "liberal" fox or the "conservative" wolf-because both of them would eat him. Second, many of you sound like the fox or wolf you have been outright disrespectful of the title of Rick Callender as Chief Executive Officer, when you refer to him as male Board Chair and CEO. Director Eisenberg, as a friend this sounds like a circus, and you're the ringmistress, if you have a case take it to court. And present your evidence. Any anonymous letters make for good practice at trash can basketball. Citizens or other elected officials become targets if they disagree or agree to disagree about topics of public interest. While I cannot find evidence of racial bias, misogyny, heterosexism, and anti- semitism I believe, as do many others, that Director Eisenberg actions toward Rick Callender were inappropriate given his capacity as a Chief Executive Officer employed by the Valley Water District. We request the Valley Water District to take the necessary steps to guarantee that this behavior does not become the standard and not allow its precedent to encourage others to conduct themselves inappropriately. I do not condone the use/release of {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 280     Pseudonym, anonymous, unauthenticated emails, and while much has been said and implied about the situation, all personnel matters, including complaints against Valley staff by members, are taken seriously. Therefore I request the Valley Water District pass a resolution not to publish any fictitious, Pseudonym, anonymous, unauthenticated emails or letters as policy. REV.

Be cautiousof opening attachments and clicking on links. Is anyone surprised? Once again, the Sheriffs and Chiefs failed plans using their street soldiers, and one potentially screws up and when that Offficer or Deputy is BLACK (or Brown), the discipline is more focused because of the race of that Officer. We hear it ALL the time and see it happening through the eyes of many. If anyone in government has ANY authority to ask the right questions and take a look at the equity of an investigation regarding black/brown officers, then do so. You will have a hand in getting rid of systemic problems in your city or county if you can catch the problems with this issue. TIP: Take a look at how Deputy Gangs in LA use their hierarchy to run such strong groups of law enforcement thugs, and for FIFTY years. Can you tell us that they are doing a better job than any of you? If any of you can see past someone's fake face and understand their method of how they operate, your city and county will avoid future major problems with your Sheriff or Chief of Police. ~SCCSTG On Wed, Jun 21, 2023 at 10:26 PM Aram James <abjpd1@gmail.com> wrote: > >  > https://www.futurity.org/black-police-officers-discipline-2454472-2/ > > > Sent from my iPhone {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 329     From:Aram James To:Sheriff Transparency; Josh Becker; Assemblymember.Berman@assembly.ca.gov; Lauing, Ed; Shikada, Ed; Joe Simitian; Cindy Chavez; Human Relations Commission; Karen Holman Cc:Robert.

Background: A very low income multi family complex. It was part of Stanford Pa Agreement deal . The Facade Designed by David Baker Assoc and built by Seque Construction. Yes the same firm that was sued in 2016 for the deaths of 6 international Irish exchange UC students and which also maimed many more in Berkeley -- and the tragedy occurred during the construction of Mayfield Place. Summary: A seven year resident, disabled senior, her daughter & 2 year- old grandson are currently evicted for non-payment of rent. Grandma had her car impounded in December and it took $700 or all of her paycheck to get it out so she could continue to work at a care home. She has been attempting to work w Life Moves who has been in- affectual at best. Not returning calls, message machine full, and a paperwork, run-around by the case worker there for a shelter bed, and/or money to pay back rent. Remember she's disabled. She and I are meeting at 12:30 at 2500 Mayfield Place in the courtyard to get a hold of Legal Aid and Project Sentinel. Help is needed for her. This is the same woman that was willing to speak to the Palo Weekly back in January yet the weekly dropped running the story. Not only are evictions occurring at this very low income complex 100 {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 339     percent tax credit building -- an agreement between Stanford and Palo Alto -- there are stationary horrid recycling bin overloads with appliances, furniture, food, yard waste, clothing, mattress' spilling out. Programs to keep us on track for employment or printing or writing résumé's are lacking and are non-existent with non working computers and no access to a copy machine or community room, or Internet. The property has been put on a 24 hour notice by city code enforcement to rid the rubbish and clean them out. It's unsafe unhealthy. As well trash shoot doors are broken and often cannot access because of doorway decree Too there are gas powered edgers and lawn mowers starting up at 7:45 weekly. There is no teen programming or sufficient onsite tenant support services. The manager does not have regular office hours posted . Both the manager & property maintenance reside onsite. Families are: Being served without warning, lease violations for such things as skateboarding off the property, little kids riding trikes & small scooters in an enclosed safe from cars area. Tenants rents are being raised yearly by 11%, mounds of paper-work for long time tenants recertification -- even when nothing has changed. Extraneous unreasonable pages of forms (not necessary and confirmed to me by the State Tax Credit Commission) to tenants places of work, job sites and bosses, even when other affidavits are acceptable for tax accreditation. Again this is the fifth property manager in 7 years, she denied us much needed Palo Alto Christmas Bureau checks in Dec 2021 when we'd been receiving them for years. These much needed funds and two days later, 3 day pay or quit notices were placed on most families doors. Management is known to knock on doors without notice threatening lease violations. broken fire hazard stoves, where God forbid if there was a fire, escape by a window is 4 feet off the floor.

Don’t Judge Persky Decision, or Any Sentence, in a Vacuum — by Aram James ( from the archives of aram james) JULY 28, 2016 / ACJPDEBUG Before retiring as a public defender, Aram James handled thousands of probation violations. In his essay, he writes that to fully evaluate Judge Persky’s sentence of Brock Turner, the public needs to account for what being on probation really means to those convicted of a crime. (Graphic by Quynh Nguyen) Former Stanford student and potential Olympic swimmer Brock Turner, a 19-year-old freshman at the time of this incident, was convicted in March of three felonies: assault with intent to commit rape of an intoxicated or unconscious person, sexual penetration of an intoxicated person, and sexual penetration of an unconscious person. The victim was a 22- year-old female college graduate, from another university, who attended the same alcohol- fueled Stanford fraternity party as Turner. On June 2nd, Judge Aaron Persky of the Santa Clara County Superior Court, the same judge who presided over the trial, and after reviewing and considering a very detailed probation report prepared by a senior female member of the Santa Clara County Probation Department — including statements from the victim and defendant, and numerous letters attesting to Turner’s good character — sentenced Turner to six months in the county jail, with three years of formal probation. The sentence imposed was entirely consistent with the probation officer’s recommendation. Turner had no prior record. The perceived leniency of Persky’s sentence set off a near public lynching of both the {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 345     defendant Turner and Persky. A media and social media lynching that were witnessed by the entire nation. Calls for Persky to resign or face a recall election over the case continue to this day. What is often overlooked when the public hears about the terms of a sentence, is the gravity of probation, and how perilously close a violation could be, which triggers a lengthy prison comittment. Before retiring as a career public defender I handled hundreds, if not thousands, of felony probation violations. I can attest to the fact that young offenders, closely supervised on felony probation, frequently fail to make it through formal probation unscathed. The numerous potential pitfalls of formal probation are an important reason why the six- month initial county jail sentence cannot be viewed in a vacuum. To understand the severity of the punishment, one must understand the part probation plays in the overall sentencing scheme. Defendants, who may have initially received what appears to be a light sentence for a serious crime, often end up serving some, if not all, of the maximum prison time they could have received at the time of the original sentencing. In Turner’s case, this means if he violates probation he could well end up serving a prison sentence of three to 10 years, or more — hardly a slap on the hand. Given the infamous cause celeb status that this case has achieved, Turner is now one of the most reviled defendants in American. He will undoubtedly be closely scrutinized on probation. Turner will be on a very short leash. A defendant on probation is spared prison only so long as he agrees to severe limits on his freedom. The terms and conditions of probation define the quality and limits of a defendant’s freedom. Even a minor violation — e.g., failure to report to your probation officer, even on one occasion, or a one-time violation of a no drug or alcohol condition — can result in the revocation of probation and imposition of a previously suspended prison sentence. So what does three years of formal probation really mean in the context of the Brock Turner case? Based on the nature of Turner’s convictions, the terms and conditions of his probation are multiple, complex, restrictive and appropriately oppressive. As an example, while on probation, Turner was ordered by Persky to participate in and complete an approved sex offender program, of not less than one year, and up to the entire three-year term of his probation. His failure to complete this program, or for that matter any other program ordered by the court, would trigger a revocation and a potential prison sentence. As part of the sex offender program, Turner will be required to submit to polygraph exams to monitor and ensure compliance with the program. {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 346     As a further public safety measure, Turner will be required to waive his psychotherapist- patient privilege, allowing his therapist to speak directly to Turner’s probation officer re his progress or lack thereof. Turner must register annually as a sex offender for life, and each time he changes his residence. He must reregister within a few days of moving. Failure to register in a timely manner would be both a new crime, allowing for the potential of new charges and a separate prison sentence, and a violation of his current probation. Turner must submit to drug and alcohol testing to ensure he is complying with the terms of his probation, that he not consume alcohol or drugs, or frequent places where alcohol is sold or consumed as a primary business. He must waive his Fourth Amendment rights, to be free of illegal and warrantless searches, and thus submit to random searches and seizure of his person, vehicle and place of residence, at any time. Upon an alleged violation of probation, Turner, would be returned to court to face a hearing. Unlike with a new offense, there is no right to a jury trial when charged with a probation violation. A judge sitting alone hears the matter. To find a violation the judge need only determine that the evidence proves the violation by a preponderance of the evidence, not proof beyond reasonable doubt, as required at a jury trial. If the judge, after hearing evidence of the alleged violation, concludes that Turner has in fact violated his probation, the judge can then sentence him to the maximum sentence, he faced at the time of the original sentencing. In my experience, judges assigned to hear probation violations are some of the most putative jurists on the bench. Need I say, that given the media attention and wave of vitriol directed at Tuner, he will be the closest watched probationer in America. Given the dizzying probationary maze faced by Turner, it is hard to quarrel with Persky’s initial sentence. As a society ruined by the scorch of over incarceration, it is critical that we have judges who have the discretion to encourage a rehabilitative model-first approach, while at the same time imposing severe conditions of probation that maximize public safety and protect us from truly violent predators. The sentence in the Turner case more than adequately balances both the public safety and the rehabilitative purposes of probation. Many of the same progressive voices who have spoken out long and passionately against over incarceration, mass incarceration, the disproportionate sentences imposed on the poor and people of color, are now doing an about face in the Turner case. They are shouting out that more of the same cruelty and barbarism should have been handed down in the Turner case. The same mentality that has brought us to our current failed state of {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 347     mass incarceration. Instead of blindly demanding that a white male elite be sentenced to prison for his first offense, the better logic is to demand the same measure of justice and mercy, for similarly situated defendants of color and the poor. We must look to rehabilitation and restorative justice first, and harsh and unforgiving prison sentences, only where absolutely necessary. The vengeful model of sentencing has proven over and over again to lead to recidivism, overcrowded prisons, and little or no true comfort or safety, for the victims. We should support Persky’s rehabilitation-motivated sentence, as an extension of the progressive movement’s call, for an end to our country’s failed mass incarceration polices.

Now more work needs to be done to amend SB2 to INCLUDE elected Sheriffs and Chiefs as they are also the real problem for the continuing systemic issues. We are speaking of the Sheriffs and Police Chiefs who have criminal and/or violation of civil rights backgrounds and are now elected and literally untouchable. We know of MANY who were former GANG members in sheriff/police agencies and those who served in other agencies with DOCUMENTED civil rights violations. YET, voters vote them in to serve at the highest office where they can subliminally and also outright pass their poison onto the rest of the department. States need to be rid of these vermin who continue to be representative of the bad cops who work for them. We cannot wait for the day some if not ALL, are shown the door with new and amended laws. We HOPE California will take the lead on this since they have been last on everything else. ~SCCSTG On Sun, Jun 18, 2023 at 3:37 PM Rebecca Eisenberg <rebecca@rebecca4water.com> wrote: Interestingly, the "vast majority of other states" already have a similar law on the books, so California is late to the game!

Be cautiousof opening attachments and clicking on links.   5/3/2005 To: District Attorney George Kennedy & Assistant District Attorney Karyn Sinunu Re: Request that your office retry the criminal case against Palo Alto officers Craig Lee and Michael Kan Dear Mr. George Kennedy & Ms. Karyn Sinunu: I am writing to you to request that your office retry the criminal case against Palo Alto police officers Michael Kan and Craig Lee. I would like to make some observations and comments regarding the recently completed trial in this matter wherein the jury ultimately hung 8 to 4 for guilty. I would then like to comment on the importance of this case being retried. I hope you will consider all of my comments in the constructive manner in which they are intended. Comments re the recently completed trial of Defendants Kan & Lee First I think it is important to acknowledge the fine work performed during the course of all of the proceedings in this matter by Deputy District Attorney Peter Waite. Not only was his preparation and presentation of the case outstanding, but it was apparent that his confidence in the strength of the case grew as the matter proceeded. No doubt the case was not tried without some mistakes and at least one questionable judgment call, but, given all of the many pressures and roles being balanced, it was an outstanding job. By the time the case went to the jury it was my observation/opinion that Mr. Waite had out performed the very talented attorneys for the defendants. From the perspective of a former public defender and trial lawyer it was clear to me that Mr. Waite and his investigative team (Sgt. Mike Denson and Sgt. Ron Watson from the PAPD) left few stones unturned in an effort to assure that the prosecution in this matter was both professionally managed and aggressively pursued. {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 365     I had no sense during the trial of this matter, despite the obvious political pressures and ramifications for the entire prosecution team, that at anytime that the prosecution team treated this case lightly or in any fashion differently than any other serious felony matter. Finally, Mr. Waite, in an example that more public servants should model, made himself available to members of the public who had endless questions for and observations to share with him. During the jury selection process in this case Mr. Waite’s questions and the nature of the responses by prospective jurors regarding the role of race, racial profiling, the right of citizens to be free of undue and unwarranted harassment by the police etc., were both fascinating and instructive re the current public mood towards law enforcement. Had the voir dire process been taped it would have made a provocative documentary on the current status of the relationship between law enforcement and the community. As indicated by the responses during voir dire, as it currently stands, the relationship appears tenuous at best. There were numerous jurors who expressed just barely restrained anger re the recent killing of Bic Cau Tran by San Jose police officer Chad Marshall and similarly deep concern re other recent high-profile killings by members of the SJPD. What came across strongest from the jury selection process is that both the depth and width of anger and concern over misconduct by law enforcement in this county is much greater than reflected by the mainstream media in Santa Clara County. Whereas the conventional wisdom has been that police cases are hard to successfully prosecute in this county the current dynamically shifting demographics, combined with a well-informed citizenry re police misconduct issues, may well have changed the landscape permanently. Given the above, it would appear that police prosecutions are much more like to be successful in this county now and in the future. During the course of the jury selection, the defense exercised a peremptory challenge against the one black female who made it into the jury box. Given the quality of her responses to the questions posed by attorneys for both sides, it was clear that this prospective juror was totally free of bias for either side. Despite the fact that Mr. Waite made an appropriate Batson/Wheeler objection that the defense, specifically attorney Harry Stern, had exercised the challenge in a in racially discriminatory fashion the judge, Andrea Bryan, declined to ask the defense council for a showing of specific bias (to establish a race–neutral reasons for the strike) or to find a prima facie case for requiring a response by the defense. The judge should have reseated the juror in the presence of the entire panel as a clear message to the defense that the racist removal of fair-minded jurors would not be tolerated. (Case law clearly supports the notion that one race-based peremptory challenge is sufficient to trigger the remedies {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 366     contemplated by Batson/Wheeler and its descendants.) Given that only three African-Americans were in the initial jury panel of approximately 160 prospective jurors called for in this case, there is little doubt that the discriminatory strike of the one black female to make it into the jury box denied the people a jury made up of a cross-section of the community and thus a fair trial. The following quotes serve as a reminder of the impact of a discriminatory challenge based on race in the context of this case: … “The harm from discriminatory jury selection extends beyond that inflicted on the defendant and the excluded juror to touch the entire community.” Batson V. Kentucky, 476 U.S, at 77 (1986). “The need for public confidence is especially high in cases involving race- related crimes. In such cases, emotions in the affected community will inevitably be heated and volatile. Public confidence in the integrity of the criminal justice system is essential for preserving community peace in trials involving race-related crimes.” (Citations omitted). Finally, as to Judge Bryan’s role in denying the community a fair trial, the following is pertinent: “Be it at the hands of the state or the defense, if a court allows the juror to be excluded because of group bias, it is a willing participant in a scheme that could only undermine the very foundation of our system of justice—our citizens’ ” (citations omitted). In addition to the failure of Judge Andrea Bryan to perform her constitutional responsibility to ensure the selection of a fair jury in this matter, it was apparent that the court allowed the atmosphere surrounding the trial to favor the defense. Not only did the court appear to bend over backward to rule in favor of the defense on issues where you would typically not expect such favorable rulings, but the court personnel, including the bailiffs, routinely acted with favoritism to members of law enforcement. This included providing preferential seating in the courtroom to members of law enforcement, allowing outbursts by law enforcement spectators to go unpunished while, at the same time, closely monitoring the conduct of non-law enforcement citizens in the courtroom to the point of a constitutional chill on access. Despite all of the efforts by the court and its personnel to tamper with the jury selection, and evidentiary rulings, and deny equal access to the courtroom to the public versus members of law enforcement, all in a thinly veiled attempt to direct a verdict of acquittal, 8 members of the community still rendered a verdict of guilty refusing, in the greatest tradition of independent jurors, to buckle under the weight of the intimidating atmosphere allowed to exist by Judge Andrea Bryan. All of this speaks volumes re the strength of the evidence in this case and the fine job done by the prosecution team. Despite the fact that only 8 of the 12 jurors in this case voted for guilty the verdict was still one of historic proportions in Santa Clara County. I {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 367     know of no other case in recent Santa Clara County history where 8 jurors have voted to convict police officers for the beating of an African- American citizen. This result calls out for a retrial. Conclusion re why the case should be retried. Community sentiment: I have enclosed an editorial from the Palo Alto Daily News, Accused officers should be retried, April 20, 2005, outlining some of the reasons why this case should be retried and encouraging your office to do so, both in the interest of the Palo Alto Police Department and the Community at large. Given the statements attributed to Karyn Sinunu in the San Jose Mercury News (enclosed), (April 19, 2005), that the district attorney usually retries hung juries and given that in this case, 8 citizens voted for guilty under the difficult conditions described in the first section of this letter, failure to do so, in this case, would feed into the perception that there are two standards of justice in this community, one for the ordinary citizen and one for police officers. Given comments in a recent article in The Recorder, April 27, 2005, that there will be a chase for endorsement by police and law enforcement groups by the presumed candidates for District Attorney in 2006, and given Ms. Sinunu’s apparent intent to run for this position, failure to retry this case might well be seen as decision-based on political expediency rather than the merits of retying this case. It is clear that this case would likely not have come to light but for the courageous act of a few “whistle-blowing” members of the PAPD willing to break down the traditional “code of silence” that so perniciously permeates much of law enforcement in this community. By the jury’s verdict in this case the community has spoken: it is time, once and for all, to send the message that the so-called “code of silence” will no longer be tolerated by those we entrust with the awesome power of the badge. Failure to retry this case would discourage officers in the future to speak out against rogue officers in their ranks and, as a result, put the public at risk of more unwarranted beatings and deaths. Given all of the above, the strength of the evidence presented in the first trial, the resources and efforts expended by the prosecution, the strong likelihood of a conviction beyond a reasonable doubt at a second trial, the efforts of the trial judge to sabotage the prosecution’s case in the first trial, and the strong public support for a retrial in this matter it is my request that you exercise your prosecutorial discretion in favor of a retrial in this case.

Please speak out if you can, email Joe Simitian, the Mayor, Mahan. r ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: <perrysandy@aol.com> Date: Sun, Jun 11, 2023 at 7:50 PM Subject: Speak Out for Real Housing in San Jose Mon. Evening June 12 DON’T MESS WITH MEASUREE! Please join Affordable Housing Network and hundreds of tenants, formerly and currently unhoused people, people of conscience, and dozens of community organizations at this Monday’s hearing on Measure E spending at San Jose City Hall. Speak out against Mayor Matt Mahan’s misguided plan to slash Measure E affordable housing funds and pretend he can “end encampments” without providing permanent housing. We will begin gathering near the first floor Council Chamber elevators at 5:30 pm to network, distribute signs, and prepare testimonies for when the hearing begins at 6 pm. In spite of their zero experience in addressing homelessness issues, the Santa Clara County Association of Realtors (SCCOAR) is aggressively mobilizing at this hearing to promote the Mayor’s misguided plan to defund affordable housing and round up unhoused people. On June 7, dozens of us picketed the SSCAOR office, chanting, “Hey realtors, you can’t hide, we can see your greedy side!” SSCOAR complained that they were “terrified” by our nonviolent chants. They are right to be scared, because they know the people of San Jose support affordable housing, not the real estate industry – as we did when we voted for Measure E in 2020. Homelessness policy is supposed to END homelessness, not just make it invisible or move people out of sight. Ending homelessness requires real, permanent, affordable housing for people to move into. Mahan and the realtors are conspiring to end the era of building affordable housing in San Jose. Realtors, landlords, and investors claim to be acting out of “compassion”, but SCCAOR has never supported affordable housing in San Jose and in fact OPPOSED Measure E when the voters approved it. Now they are joining Mayor Mahan’s “budget brigade” of wealthy property owners to pull the plug on successful programs like the County Measure A and make our housing crisis worse.

Be cautiousof opening attachments and clicking on links. The anti-SB 403 folks came out in force at the Palo Alto city council meeting on Monday night. Their argument appears to be that SB 403 -creates- caste where it does not exist. I spoke to the group before they left to see if I understood correctly. My understanding based on listening to their words afterwards is that there is a fear that calling out caste could increase discrimination against Indian Americans. I promised them I would look at the law and do some research. Having done exactly that, while I am sympathetic to their fear in a highly racist culture, I don't think it assists the movement to deny oppression in one's own ranks. Women have seen this time and time again as minority men have made strides and broken through barriers often by leaving behind (and sometimes selling out) female and lgbtqia2s+ members of their own communities-- eg how homophobic voters helped fuel Barack Obama's success in California as they came out to vote in favor of prop 8 banning same sex marriage, which Obama supported (as in, he supported banning same sex marriage) at the time. People justified it because they thought it was ok to throw women and lgbtqia2s+ people under the bus to have a black (heterosexist) president. (Meanwhile there was a female candidate in the race that supported lgbtqia2s+ equality but "it wasn't a woman's turn" then -- and obviously hasn't been since). We never should sacrifice the freedoms of some in order to protect a more powerful group. I am fairly confident that most Indian Americans speaking out against sb 403 are from higher castes, in part because here in Palo Alto many of the most vocal Indian Americans (the most wealthy, I should clarify) are Brahmin or of the other highest castes. While they leave the acknowledged system behind in India, they did come with their privilege, whether that privilege is acknowledged or not. Denial of privilege is a very common activity here in the US, per above, including denying oppression within one's own ranks. But when you speak with the folks who will be protected by this law, the issue is clear. One does not and can not end discrimination by denying that it exists, and promoting Indian rights that are only for the highest castes is no more tolerable then the countless times that minority rights have been furthered only for minority men or women's rights have been furthered only for white women. Social Justice movements must *begin* with the rights of the most oppressed, because history teaches -- as all of us forever waiting for a female president can attest-- that if we don't embrace the most oppressed from day one, we often don't get there at all. So I strongly support SB 403.

Out of 5.4 million of South Asians, Indian immigrants count 4.32 million. According to a study from Princeton University, only 2% of Indian immigrants in the USA were Dalits and more than 90 percent were from high or dominant castes; and WHEREAS, the privileged castes continuously deny the practice of caste in the USA {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 390     meanwhile caste based rituals and ceremonies are openly advertised in the Internet as exclusive for the privileged castes confirm their self contradictory position on caste; and WHEREAS, when caste based networking, social media groups encourage casteism covertly and subtly; political and social mobilization under the banner of Hindu Nationalism (aka Hindutva) by the Hindu right-wing abet casteism openly in the USA; and WHEREAS, non South Asians especially Americans are unaware of practice of caste among the Indians made it very easy for Indians to be castist without being challenged. Hindu right- wing groups through their various organizations in the USA received $833,000 of federal COVID fund is the manifestation of the above fact; and WHEREAS, any criticism of caste is lamented as attack on Hinduism by the Hindutva groups. In the Cisco caste discrimination lawsuit, a Hindutva group filed a motion in the California Supreme Court that allegation of caste discrimination is an intervention by the Department of Fair Employment and Housing in Hindu’s religious liberty and rights. In California textbook issue the Hindu right-wing groups mobilized 1000s of people including the children to deny the practice of caste in the USA; and WHEREAS, the practice of caste in the workplace is an extension of practice of caste by the South Asians in their day-to-day life; with privileged castes in the hiring-and-firing positions in big corporates, control the social and cultural organizations through money power and social networks and access to public offices; left the Dalits more vulnerable. THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People stands opposed to the practices of caste exists among the South Asians in the United States of America and will work through the local, state and federal legislative process to make sure that such practices will be prohibited to protect the most vulnerable; and THEREFORE, BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED that the NAACP will urge all of its Units to educate themselves of practice of caste and take necessary action to expose such practices.

DON’T MESS WITH MEASURE E! In May, the Affordable Housing Network signed on to the following REAL Coalition letter to City Council opposing Mayor Matt Mahan’s proposal to slash Measure E funds for affordable housing: Dear Mayor Mahan, Vice Mayor Kamei, and members of the City Council: We are a broad coalition of organizations and individuals writing to ask you to support maintaining the current Measure E expenditure plan. The proposed changes not only zero out funding for affordable housing next year, but raid the funds received in prior years and create a massive long term budget obligation to the city. This violates our commitment to voters, undermines our commitment to expanding affordable housing, and ignores the role of affordable and permanent supportive housing in providing real homes for people moving out of interim shelters. The destabilizing impact of rent burden, overcrowding, displacement, and the increase in homelessness is a result of the lack of homes in our community that people can afford. As a City, we have recently made important commitments to building affordable housing in more parts of the City, expanding opportunities and ensuring that new housing is a resource for neighborhood stability. Taking money from Measure E for band aid solutions is abandoning these commitments. Overdependence on interim shelter is a major shift in priorities, and not a responsible policy. We urge you to keep the balanced approach of the current Measure E expenditure plan. ________________________________________________________________________________ Affordable Housing Network joined the hundreds of tenants, unhoused, formerly unhoused, andcommunity organizations to rally and testify against the Mayor’s plan on May 16. The few Mayor’s supporters who testified in favor of the proposal were led by wealthy realtors and landlords, who apparently believe that they benefit from the tight rental market that is the status quo. But San Jose’sdesperate shortage of affordable housing is causing unbearable displacement and suffering for hundredsof thousands of unhoused or rent-burdened residents. Homelessness in America is caused by national disinvestment in affordable housing going back almostfifty years. The solution is construction or preservation of some 12 million permanently affordable housingunits to address the national shortfall. Mahan and his supporters essentially claim that creating affordable housing is “unrealistic” and “too expensive” and should be abandoned, in spite of the fact that we live in the richest region and the richest country in the history of the world. Mahan is calling for diversion of Measure E funds to his other priorities: moving unhoused people out of sight, increased police staffing, and establishing “no-encampment zones”. His proposal would drastically reduce the 75% share of Measure E funds allocated to affordable housing by CityCouncil in 2022. According to a San Jose Spotlight chart, even the “compromise” proposal announced byMahan on May 24 would still cut affordable housing funds by $43 million. But defunding housing will only make homelessness get worse in San Jose – because interim housing and shelters only work when there is permanent affordable housing to move into afterward. The last timeCity affordable funds were cut, when redevelopment was ended in 2011, homelessness in San Joseexploded. In his budget message, Mayor Mahan promoted the punishment-based “Haven for Hope” shelter founded by Donald Trump’s notorious Interagency Council on Homelessness director, Robert Marbut. Marbut, like Trump, is well-known for opposing the evidence-based “Housing First” approach to ending homelessness that is used by HUD, the State of California, and by cities all across the country. Marbut claims that homelessness is not a housing problem but a behavioral problem, and is best addressed by punishment. According to him, people should just be forced to work harder until they are able to afford market rate {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 414     rents. He calls his approach the “Velvet Hammer”. Without permanent affordable housing, the only way the Mayor can “end encampments” is with Marbut- style detention centers. If unhoused people ever decide to leave those centers, Mahan promises to send out police officers to bring them back, by enforcing his edict that “we should expect unhoused residents to accept alternatives to unmanaged encampments when offered”. Affordable Housing Network believes that the real solution is to fight for the 12 million units necessary to end homelessness and housing insecurity altogether. In the meantime, we believe that City Council’s 2022 Measure E allocation of 75% to affordable housing and 25% to homelessness prevention and services is the proper balance between permanent housing and interim solutions. Please join us in speaking out against the Mayor’s budget plan at 6:00 pm on Monday, June 12. ¡NO CAMBIA LA MEDIDA E! En mayo, la Red de Vivienda Asequible firmó la siguiente carta de la Coalición REAL al ConcejoMunicipal que se opone a la propuesta del alcalde Matt Mahan de recortar los fondos de la Medida Epara viviendas asequibles: Estimado Alcalde Mahan, Vicealcalde Kamei y Miembros del Concejo Municipal: Somos una amplia coalición de organizaciones e individuos que le escribimos para pedirle que apoye el mantenimiento del plan de gastos actual de la Medida E. Los cambios propuestos no solo eliminan los fondos para viviendas asequibles el próximo año, sino que también eliminan los fondos recibidos en años anteriores y crean una enorme obligación presupuestaria a largo plazo para la ciudad. Esto viola nuestro compromiso con los votantes, socava nuestro compromiso de ampliar las viviendas asequibles, e ignora el papel de las viviendas de apoyo permanentes y asequibles para proporcionar hogares reales a las personas que se mudan de los refugios provisionales. El impacto desestabilizador de la carga de la renta, el hacinamiento, el desplazamiento, y el aumento de personas sin hogar es el resultado de la falta de viviendas en nuestra comunidad que la gente pueda pagar. Como Ciudad, recientemente hicimos importantes compromisos para construir viviendas asequibles en más partes de la Ciudad, ampliando las oportunidades y asegurando que las nuevas viviendas sean un recurso para la estabilidad del vecindario. Tomar dinero de la Medida E para soluciones temporarias es abandonar estos compromisos. La dependencia excesiva del alojamiento provisional es un cambio importante en las prioridades y no una política responsable. Le instamos a que mantenga el enfoque equilibrado del actual plan de gastos de la Medida E. ________________________________________________________________________________ Affordable Housing Network se unió a los cientos de inquilinos, personas sin hogar, personas anteriormente sin hogar, y organizaciones comunitarias para manifestarse y testificar contra el plan del alcalde el 16 de mayo. Los pocos partidarios del alcalde que testificaron a favor de la propuesta estabanencabezados por ricos agentes inmobiliarios y propietarios, que aparentemente creen que se beneficiandel ajustado mercado de alquiler que es el statu quo. Pero la desesperada escasez de viviendas asequibles en San José está causando un desplazamiento y un sufrimiento insoportables para cientos de miles de residentes sin vivienda o agobiados por el alquiler. La falta de vivienda en Estados Unidos es causada por la desinversión nacional en viviendas asequibles que se remonta a casi cincuenta años. La solución es la construcción o conservación de unos 12 millones de unidades de vivienda permanentemente asequibles para abordar el déficit nacional. Mahan ysus partidarios esencialmente afirman que crear viviendas asequibles es "poco realista" y "demasiadocaro" y debería abandonarse, a pesar de que vivimos en la región más rica y el país más rico en la historia del mundo. Mahan está pidiendo que se desvíen los fondos de la Medida E a sus otras prioridades: sacar de la vistaa las personas sin hogar, aumentar el personal policial, y establecer “zonas sin campamentos”. Supropuesta reduciría drásticamente la participación del 75% de los fondos de la Medida E asignados a viviendas asequibles por el Ayuntamiento en 2022. Según un cuadro de San Jose Spotlight, incluso la {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 415     propuesta de "compromiso" anunciada por Mahan el 24 de mayo aún recortaría los fondos de viviendaasequible por $43 millones. Pero desfinanciar la vivienda solo empeorará la falta de vivienda en San José, porque las viviendas provisionales y los refugios solo funcionan cuando hay viviendas asequibles permanentes a las que mudarse después. La última vez que se redujeron los fondos asequibles de la Ciudad, cuando finalizó laRedevelopment en 2011, explotó la falta de vivienda en San José. En su mensaje sobre el presupuesto, el alcalde Mahan promovió el refugio basado en el castigo "Refugio para la Esperanza" fundado por el notorio director del Consejo Interagencial sobre Personas sin Hogarde Donald Trump, Robert Marbut. Marbut, al igual que Trump, es bien conocido por oponerse al enfoquebasado en la evidencia "Vivienda Primero" para terminar con la falta de vivienda que utilizan HUD, el estado de California, y ciudades de todo el país. Marbut afirma que la falta de vivienda no es un problema de Vivienda, sino un problema de comportamiento, y la mejor manera de abordarlo esmediante el castigo. Según él, las personas deberían verse obligadas a trabajar más duro hasta quepuedan pagar los alquileres a precio de mercado. Él llama a su enfoque el "martillo de terciopelo". Sin viviendas asequibles permanentes, la única forma en que el alcalde puede “terminar con loscampamentos” es con centros de detención al estilo Marbut. Si las personas sin hogar alguna vezdeciden abandonar esos centros, Mahan promete enviar policías para traerlos de regreso, haciendo cumplir su edicto de que “debemos esperar que los residentes sin hogar acepten alternativas a los campamentos no administrados cuando se les ofrezcan”. La Red de Vivienda Asequible cree que la verdadera solución es luchar por los 12 millones de unidades necesarias para acabar con la falta de vivienda y la inseguridad en la vivienda por completo. Mientras tanto, creemos que la asignación de la Medida E de 2022 del Concejo Municipal del 75 % a viviendasasequibles y el 25 % a servicios y prevención de personas sin hogar es el equilibrio adecuado entreviviendas permanentes y soluciones provisionales. Únase a nosotros para hablar en contra del plan presupuestario del alcalde a las 6:00 p. m. el lunes 12de junio. {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 416     From:Aram James To:Burt, Patrick; Patricia.Guerrero@jud.ca.gov; Shikada, Ed; Jethroe Moore; Sean Allen; Julie Lythcott-Haims; Veenker, Vicki; Lauing, Ed; Human Relations Commission; Josh Becker; Council, City Subject:SB 403 to fight caste discrimination Date:Monday, June 5, 2023 6:04:17 PM CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization.

Hello Mr. Fisk, I've been in contact with Dr. Ehrentraut and others regarding investigations of 2008 relating to Markham Plaza Apartments in San Jose & the Santa Clara County Public Guardian. One of deputy public guardian's involved was Rhondi Opheim. Her siister, Robin Opheim was assistant city auditor and worked directly with Lisa Herrick. The Public Defender's office was well aware of this and so was the District Attorney's office and there is Case # with DA and federal agencies were also involved. One of the investigators under Marti Oakley claims one of the attorneys is also a witness & believes that Lisa Herrick knew this & kept it secret. The attorney also had responsibility to speak up but did not. ( or there is no record of this ) - Also, Former Judge Mary Anne Grilli is under investigation also as she appears to be tied to fraudulent construction company contract and "Home First" , a non profit organization. Mary Ann Grilli sent letter to Heidi Yauman in 2008 relating to these investigations. An individual arrested in London may be tied to Mary Anne Grilli and Lary Kubo and police in England tracked this individual knowing of relation to investigation in the United States. Lisa Herrick and Sunnyvale Police Chief are both believed to be involved in missing $6,000,000 in Audit of Emergency Housing Consortium in 2006. Emergency Housing Consortium is same non profit as Home First under different name. The property management was overseen by "Ky Le" , who later worked for office of supportive housing , controlling funds from US Department of Urban Development. In November of 2020, County Officials and Sunnyvale Police Department kicked us out of the Vagabond Inn which was paid for by FEMA through project homekey. The same week that Ky Le became deputy county executive, there was a change of security companies & both used same system called "Silver Track" the records of the two comanies do not appear to be consistant with one another. Chris Welsh, the attorney who was supposed to represent me is aware & he was hand picked by Lisa Herrick & IDO & will not allow any evidence that they decide contradicts the false and fraudulent narative that they created. Gary Goodman has also been caught & so has Molly O'Neil as they have looked into the timing and circumstances of her placement as PDO & the Markham Plaza Attacks are believed to be closely tied to George Shirakawa who was president of Board of Supervisors. Markham Plaza Apartment's was in his district & happened during same time period. I do not hold you responsible or anyone from your office. Trust me when I say I know how it feals to be blamed for something not my fault & i have respect fdr this & I do not blame you or anyone from your office. Please understand that I am not trying to be defiant of OR & I believe with all my heart that these proceedings are illegal & I must follow my concience. It has been almost one year since speedy trial time have expired. Thank you for your understanding.

If the "court" does not not recognise this my 6th amendment right, then I do not recognise the "court" Get out of my life and stay out of my life! You are a failure and so is the court system in Santa Clara County. Almost one year has elapsed since the time limit has expiired. YOU ARE OUT OF TIME. You do not have "good cause" to extend & this "court" does not have authority to make any judgement that is not biassed. Yiou should understand what FRAUD means. I am not on trial sir. You are on trial. How dare you cause me to be arrested for supposed missed "obligation" to show up in court, yet t\you pay no attention toi your own obligations to provide competent legal defense. I have fulfilled my obligations already and I HAVE ALREADY MADE IT CLEAR! I AM NOT GOING TO PRETEND TO BE SOMEONE I AM NOT. You are a FAKE AND A CHARLETON!

Eviction.pdf makes clear that there were investions underway & clearly references the Publlic Guardian. Eviction.pdf also shows corespondences with city council member Madison Nguyen. Lisa Herrick had access to those emails. The false police report by detective david carroll was reviewed by Sheriff Captain Ricardo Urena, head of Count Security for all court locations in County. ?Urena worked directly with Lisa Herrick, Presiding Judge and CEO. The Fake eviction was on 10/03/2012 and on 10/18/2012, Lisa Herrick was named General Counsel for the court. The false police report by detective david carroll misreprents the fraud by Robert Ridgeway and his failure to produce video that he claimed existed. The video did not exist. Under the supervision of Lisa Herrick and Ricardo Urena, Carroll's false police report fraudulently procured juridstiction claiming that Ridgeway's fraud was part of his duties as police officer & connected his wife: Aleksandra Ridgeway - making it appear as if Ken Ditkowski had decided there was some law enabling her to testify in court to something she never witnessed. Detective Carroll omitted references to Public Guardian , Whistleblower complaint regarding County Counsel attorney Larry Kubo, etc. The court had no business assigning public defender in 2014 & Lisa Herrick new that this was conflict of interest. One of the reasons is because public defender George Abel was assigned to "represent" Heid Yauman in coresponding probate court matters. it is obvious that the Sheriff dept & Public Defender were in collusion with each other because both agencies were aware of the investigations referenced in eviction.pdf, yet they dodged out of involvement with these things & both insisted that it had nothing to do with Public Guardian. Lisa Herrick of course also knew & her double role as assistant city attorney and general counsel for the court is of huge significance that was illegaly concealed & it is obvious that Lisa Herrick abused her office for personal gain and that court officials were well aware of this. As you can also see, The civil grand jury investigation report refenced internet searches, yet failed to reference public guardian related banners that were highest ranking in search engines. Attatched is document regarding Human Relations committee investigation into Grand Jury with testimony that prosecutor directed grand jury members to disregard testimony from certain individuals. The current "case" is a bogus domestic violance charge. I was helping Heidi who was having medical issues not overdose on aspirin by making sure she did not overdose. i slapped table in Starbucks to get her attention as she was having massive panic / anxiety attack. I did exactly what I needed to do. The MC-410 speaks volumes & the court & Lisa Herrick are responsible for inflicting these injuries on Heidi. There is no way in hell they can claim to have no conflict. Additionaly, County Social Workers: Robert Rocco, Peggy Chou and others falsified public records in collusion with Sunjnyvale Police Department illegaly kiucking us out of Vagabond Inn Hotel which was paid for by Federal Funding out of Project Room Key. As Heidi's advocate, I redressed these grievances as I was supposed to do & as my right and Heidi's under U.S. Constitution. Because I/ had redressed these grievances, Social Worker Peggy Chou filed document claiming that Heidi Yauman was banned frokm recieving services until December, 2025. Peggy Chou committed felony and must be prosecuted. She misreprespresented my valid expression of first amendmant rights annd claimed it was "harassing emails" - She has failed to follow through with her requirement to produce evidence backing these claims. Just as Robert Ridgeway could not back his claims. {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 435     Regards, Cary Andrew Crittenden Sent: Friday, July 22, 2022 at 10:00 PM From: "Public Interest" <san.jose@california.usa.com> To: city.council@cityofploalto.ororge Subject: Fwd: Officer Tesser ~ DRJ-927 Thanks & take care On 7/22/22, 9:30 PM Public Interest <san.jose@california.usa.com> wrote: Hello officer Tesso I am unofficially checking in for this week.

I am checking in anyway out precaution simply because I do not want to bearrested because the records in regards to this case are mixed up in thatcorrespond with other court cases that were perjured by DA office ,. Court ,. PublicDefender ,. etc. I appeared as a witness to case 112CV2296956 which involved a fraudulenteviction facilitated by the Santa Clara County Public Guardian. ( See eviction.pdf )Perjury was committed by a County Counsel attorney named Larry Kubo,. anemployee of property management named Robert Ridgeway , a non lawenforcement officer. A person died as a result of the fraud and also, because,. asexplained below, the County facilitated ,. Santa Clara Counties eligibility for HUDfunding had been compromised. https://youtu.be/iDnq059_sb4 I took oath to tell the Truth, whole truth and nothing but the Truth , yet thepresiding Judge who at the time was Brian Walsh ,. along with General Counsel forthe court: Lisa Herrick sent Sheriff Department out to Stalk, harass and threatenwitnesses to not speak about what had occured. ( See attached MC 410 Yaumandocument ). This caused Heidi Yauman's condition to worsen & when I was arrested by Palo AltoPolice on Donestic violence charge,. I was actually tending to her medical conditioninvolving injuries caused by the court , sheriff dept , etc. In 2013 & 2014,. The Civil Grand Jury was investigating the Public Guardian & afake court case ( C1493022 ) was created with a false narrative and fraudulentlyprocured subject matter jurisdiction , etc http://www.scscourt.org/court_divisions/civil/cgj/2014/PublicGuardian.pdf To divert subject matter away from Public Guardian the presiding Judge andGeneral Counsel worked to make it appear as if Robert Ridgeway was a policeofficer when he committed fraud,. that he was acting in his official capacity as lawenforcement officer and that he was in uniform. As you can see by the evictiondocument, that this was not the case. A deputy Public defender named George Abelwas working corresponding probate court case , and therefore , it was conflict ofinterest to assign Jeff Dunn public defender to represent me in case C1493022. JeffDunn ,. ADA James Leonard , and court railroaded me. Any doubt that there was no foul play or conflict of interest can be dismissed bysimply comparing the false police report and eviction document. The false police {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 436     report was reviewed by Sheriff Captain Ricardo Urena ,. who at the time,. was headof Court Security and reported directly to the Presiding Judge. The presiding Judgeis responsible for overseeing all activities and case in the court and the problemswith this are obvious. Additionally they had no reason for responding to situation inarea jurisdiction of San Jose where Ridgeway was residing and the falsified Policereport failed to show any court security related issues or anything regarding any"duties of law enforcement" , as adopted by fake narrative are dismissed asdelirious nonsense and lies in order for "court officials" to evade responsibility andliability. The fact that the false report was overseen by Presiding Judge demonstrates that itwas the Court itself that levied the fake charges and invented the fake theme about"Law enforcement duties" and other lies and distortions. No judge within Santa Clara county can be expected to act without BIAS favoringDetective Carroll and the other who stalked and terrorized us and threatened us tonot speak about the crimes. My false arrest on case C1494032 occured on September 16th, 2014. It is nocoincidence that one week later,. Donald Moody was escorted from his office bysecurity. Donald Moody was Public Guardian and named as Co-Defendent in case112cv236958. I appeared as witness. Not defendant.

Although I had exercised poorjudgement in an email sent out of pain from the horror we were put through,. Itwas ultimately Gary Goodman's fault because of his incompetent legalrepresentation in C1493022. Despite the fact that Ridgeway could never present the *video". that he lied about& I was living in Palo Alto, not San Jose,. Goodman pulled a fake PC 1368 whichdefrauded me of my right to speedy trial. I refused to change my position and Istuck to the facts and would not adopt his false narrative. Goodman falsified recordthat fake video existed and fabricated mental health conditions. Gary Goodman is aliar. He declared conflict of interest when proceedings were finally renewed. Publicdefender should never had been involved and they refused to address the issuesthat I brought fourth . The fraud and conflicts are obvious and self evident toanyone who reviews the documents.
