Hi, everyone fireman.
Jim Holley
Just like he used to be able to pause the whole Corolla?
Speaker 2
I think I don't think the product their staff probably was the secretary
Jim Holley
you know the audience.
Unknown Speaker
I don't
Unknown Speaker
but I do think that they can do it
Unknown Speaker
as common
Speaker 1
as I know you still don't have a quorum, but he ultimately says that you can take comments from the public. I don't know if you want to discard it with that, or you wait. But Chaplin is also on hold. And they're trying to hold up the champion. You could even have to order a mouse there is not a quorum. You can ask the chaplain to give me invocation. And you can start with public comment. I asked the attorney is she support was hard to staff. It is his opinion that it is not. But we could just start with at least the public comment
Jim Holley
as chair I gotta get out there and out there. It should be in here. Yes. He's out there and if people waiting, well, why why? What can you do about that? Don't make any sense over
Unknown Speaker
your condition.
Jim Holley
I can't I can't
Speaker 1
I have a saying when I'm doing parliamentary training. I have a chapter called hardness
Jim Holley
I just want I want you to know what's going on ladies and gentlemen. We should have a poll and everybody should be here. We have we have enough we have a commissioner just out there. And he's got to pick some dentists and so forth. I want you to know because we all work hard to be here at three o'clock
Commissioner Bernard
it's 215.
Unknown Speaker
You with a patient.
Unknown Speaker
I don't want to lose any more. Thank you
Commissioner Bernard
for the recording in progress session
Speaker 3
that will allow us to move hardwire agenda without violating the Open Meetings Act. So I bring the meeting back into session.
Speaker 2
I'm really leaving. Maybe it's called a meeting call to order.
Speaker 3
And we're going to thank Chaplain Angela scholar and apologize and be blessed by your words. This afternoon.
Speaker 4
A man no apology. God bless you. Give me an honor to God was the head of my life. And to all of you honorable people here that are doing so the work of making decisions regarding the officers to our Chairman. Commissioner Holt and I don't know if chief White is their chief police white or chief Jacqueline is there but to all of the honorable Commissioner that are there and also giving honor to our police officers that serve every day in the city. of Detroit. And to the graduating class tomorrow will be well the new graduating class of police officers tomorrow. I want to invoke prayer at this time and seeking the presence of God in this meeting. I know that sometimes I get anxious and I'm believing that in the name of Jesus that we will be anxious for nothing. He wants us to have a closeness and rivalry as we come together to make decisions and these decisions may be weightier than others there's a reason why all things happen. Nothing is an accident or or a coincidence but everything is divinely inspired by God. So I'm asking right now that the light of God will unfold you and cover you as you make decisions on this thing. And they will be made in the light of God's in Jesus's name. Amen.
Unknown Speaker
Amen.
Speaker 3
Amen. So as I understand from the parliamentarian,
Unknown Speaker
we can now ask for
Unknown Speaker
comments from the public.
Speaker 1
You can say you can't do anything else. You can take public comment, and that would maybe give some time for some of the other Commissioners.
Speaker 3
Thank you again. You. Help us with this particular part of the agenda here. Good
Speaker 5
afternoon, Madam Chair. Report you currently have 10 speakers called those in attendance. Lieutenant ma Jiang LSA. President, Mr. Robert call Matt and he
Unknown Speaker
Good evening. We just got
Speaker 6
not only my CBD colleagues, our local state and federal audits you can probably
Unknown Speaker
point out a few.
Speaker 6
And while we expect perfection of everybody, perfection is impossible. We seek perfection every day. With the men and women to step forward to face Crisis have never been more power, just as some of the members of the DPD crisis every day. And there's a monster with situation. seeking credit, seeking results on behalf of the great citizens of the city of Detroit.
Unknown Speaker
Do what tires will lessly and
Speaker 6
in light of all the incidents, I want you to bring focus to what law enforcement face every day. To see you see a snippet on the news you see a snippet on the news. internalize it. Punish body's violence a little bit. All I want to say today. I got two minutes think I'll cut it for these men and women stay local. And as always my DVD colleagues, I take my hat off to the board or whatever you think as not only a leader, a law enforcement president, we don't just pass cater as a citizen as a studio Detroit. I am grateful to the Detroit Police Department. Not perfect but a different level of excellence. Thank you.
Unknown Speaker
My name is
Speaker 7
Robert Carmack and I would like to have an investigation on Mayor Duggan. He brought past charges on me or false pretenses and so forth. I need someone investigate this. Probably Kirkpatrick was investigated. He was found by this police department that he committed crimes. What's the same thing done to Mayor Duggan? He's charged with crimes because I caught him cheating on his wife. That's the only reason I was found not guilty. never even went to court. Guess what happens? 2007 He has nothing to do with that. I need eternal parents as somebody investigates this guy. I supported the Detroit Police Department. I had a collision shop in Detroit, Detroit. Police cars are all my life, fire ambulance, all that stuff. I paid for jobs and whether it's funeral. I pay for every cop in the state in this country. It comes to Laura Manor, or that I paid for the betrayers at these two funerals. This police officer did this investigation dug in every two weeks. Firstly, that's going out the ream of should be seeing the sheet and you'll see the mayor. She bought these false charges on he needs to be investigated. And if he found that he committed a crime which he did he needs to be removed from office. Somebody's going to help me here in this police thing. This is what this is about public safety. If your leader is a crook or criminal, he's go to jail.
Unknown Speaker
He went to jail.
Speaker 7
Mike Duggan least goes jail. He brought charges on me. You got to fishing. He put this on agenda. investigate this.
Speaker 2
I had the documents. This guy ruined my life.
Speaker 7
He tore my building down illegally. He threw me in jail. He stopped me from taking care of my mother when she was eight years old who fell and died from training.
Unknown Speaker
Thank you for your comments. Your two minutes. Thank you.
Unknown Speaker
Good evening, everyone. Good afternoon. We can leave for you a
Speaker 8
few weeks ago regarding an instance with some officers from the seventh precinct microphone. I want to start by saying we do have a restorative circle scheduled for Monday. But the issue is from my understanding, this committee has still not been the video. We have interviewed with internal affairs, OCI, back to internal affairs back to OCI and they're claiming that they haven't seen the video. Yeah, it was clear cut video that shows what happened from beginning to end. I'm not understanding why it's not being released to you. And also to the investigators. I feel like we're being investigated rather than the officers for them this kind of
Unknown Speaker
also,
Speaker 8
I'm standing here on behalf of my family and my community who is outraged they want the officers at the lease removed from the street. I'm still having issues sleeping because all I can think about is the Tyree legal case where they complained about the officers are we prior to losing his life and they were still on the street and somebody lost their life and I can't have it on my conscience that someone would lose their life or be mistreated. Because the losses of us go on the street likes to see the video. You can get my contact information, and you can come see the video for
Speaker 2
yourself. That's all Thank you.
Unknown Speaker
Thank you for your comments. And we do recall you're coming back.
Speaker 2
Third time, correct, correct. No.
Speaker 3
You were saying however that you are in communication with the Detroit Police Department? Yes, we
Speaker 2
are. Senator, could I Sure. Thank you.
Speaker 9
Just as a as a brief update, I'll actually be there. At that meeting on Monday. So I look forward to collaborating.
Unknown Speaker
Yes, chair.
Unknown Speaker
Coalition of Burton. Yes.
Speaker 10
I just wanted to record reflect that I was out in the hallway speak to one of my constituents who brought matters to me. And so
Speaker 3
we please address at the mics Sure. So yeah. What it is you're asking of us the board of police commissioners.
Unknown Speaker
We want the officers removed
Unknown Speaker
from the street.
Speaker 8
We don't want to put anybody's life in jeopardy. With DNR here. They were very aggressive. They were escalating the situation. And they intense training if not removal from the Detroit Police Force.
Speaker 3
Okay, thank you for your absolute what it is they're expecting on the board and
Commissioner Bernard
an investigation I saw.
Speaker 8
And we want we want some answers as to how this is going to move forward. I know the restorative circle coming up. So
Unknown Speaker
thanks
Speaker 3
to both of you. But I need to say also you I believe you mentioned that the situation is in the hands of Internal Affairs.
Speaker 3
If we were to ask why this is, excuse me, so I'm trying to say we are involved in non criminal incidents. So it appears to me that you do due diligence to bring this to the attention of the Detroit Police Department, the public, as well as the board of police commissioners and again, I say thank you for coming and making sure this state is on our way to one second, please.
Unknown Speaker
I want to make sure. Okay,
Unknown Speaker
Commissioner Holly, please,
Jim Holley
Mr. Chair, I'd like to have the Chief of our pay grade. I think the cheap items aren't allowed us
Speaker 11
cheap furniture as indicated the investigations with internal affairs. The if it's non criminal, that determination, I think it's a parallel investigation with OCI. We did not want to take it from LCI to give the appearance that we are trying to somehow not be transparent. So the restorative practice that which will be part of this whole process to explain to the community as well as to the people involved. I'm sorry. I miss you people see it able to call your people I just couldn't remember your name, the family. We're going to transparently show the entire video. Members of the board please connections will be in attendance and talk through the restorative practice of what both sides saw and how they saw it. But that is not designed in any way to compromise the investigative nature of what's happening outside of that circle. So the investigation will continue and the board will receive the disposition of that investigation from our department with regards to the video I have to track that down. I see no reason why the board shouldn't have access to the video now that the video is the video so you can look at it and make your own determination from it. So I'll talk to the Assistant Chief are going who's driving that part of it and we'll get that video over to the board in the next 24 hours.
Commissioner Bernard
That's the family limit.
Unknown Speaker
Okay, thank you. All right.
Speaker 3
Thank you citizen coming to the mic to put it on our radar. And we're gonna move on to the next
Unknown Speaker
question. I never do get the answer.
Unknown Speaker
Sir. You asked me what
Speaker 8
I ate and I was gonna tell you what I was told. I was told by OCI that it was not what I ate anymore. That's why I'm here because I'm feeling
Speaker 11
I don't want to go back and forth. So I direct it. I look at it. So obviously I can make the determination of a case that I've already directed to be looked at by now obviously, I could have a parallel investigation. But we look at cases for department violations, criminality and my direction to to the director who reports to me let's take this case and to investigate it. I have not changed my position on that. He doesn't get to change my position on that. So this is what I thank you for your
Speaker 3
clarification. Yes, ma'am. Thank you for coming again to keep this on our radar. We'll have a blessed one here as well to to to share. I'm waiting to
Speaker 5
see you next week speaker to be Minister Eric block, all about Motor City rule and call about a call with the last three numbers 534.
Unknown Speaker
Can you hear me more? Yes, sir.
Speaker 12
Yes, this is Mr. Eric blonde from Sacred Heart Catholic Church. The chairperson Ferguson are you still standing by your statement that this service provided to the D family is a great example of oversight. As the old adage says, We can't believe what you say because we see what you do this family has come to these weekly meetings three or four times after filing a complaint with OCI and talking to the commander at the precinct, but yet they still unsatisfied. No one has seen the video. No one knows what's really going on. A partial thank you to Reverend Commissioner Presley. After last week's public comment. He questioned the board's chair as to whether or not a resolution supporting the George Floyd justice and policing Act had been filed by this board. Unfortunately, this is a little too little bit of information and it generates more questions and answers
Speaker 2
such as why ask
Speaker 12
if this monumental document had been approved by this board? Why doesn't each and every commissioner know that it exists? And being able to tell people where to find it or even print it out? But no, we don't know where the resolution exist. What was not posted on the BC B LPC website, it has not found even even in a search of the archives of B LPC documents. These unanswered questions again forced the public not to trust anything this board says again, we cannot believe
Speaker 2
just okay. You possibly
Unknown Speaker
resurrect resolution so that we can
Speaker 2
recirculate it. So, because obviously
Speaker 3
those commissioners who were not on the board at that time, they might not have access to it. Because we only received that one time during the fever of all that unfortunate activity. So I'm asking that you Minister, please. Resolution and you share it with the blue and season and I know you will be available to put it on a website
Unknown Speaker
called the CD RW Tabby one
Speaker 13
shot James D White, you sit right here. You just heard what Robert Cadillac said. It's the truth. Rebecca McKay from the Detroit Police Department who's still collecting a check from the Detroit Police Department shopped around the case with no witnesses and no documents file false charges because Mr. Carr leg put a billboard out exposing mayor's infidelity Fidelity's. Now we're going to bring it to the attention of everyone. The City of Detroit is way over the state legal debt because of illegal bond issuances by the mayor approved by the city council to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars, which is placed on the backs of black citizens and alarmed black citizens in this city. Billions of dollars, billions would have been of principal and interest payments that are going to be due going forward to 2044 is the truth 100% Due to that James the way your boss can you sit couldn't comb it did not shoot herself as evidence by the physical evidence. It's impossibility for her to have shot herself. You cannot have a gun by suicide by gun without guns. stippling is on a boom. It's a physical impossibility. Now Mark was Scotch Captain Derek May, Eric Decker, Michael McGinnis, and others in the office under the tutelage of your predecessor, James E. Craig is you Daisy Craig, James D. Tate. Oh, whole bunch of James is all know that condition, the last shooter so now what Mr. Carmack said was the truth what I said was the truth and what that lady just brought to the attention of his board. This whole is a sham and all you appointees on the board your Sham to especially the slick snake oil salesmen country preacher
Unknown Speaker
with the last three numbers 534 pasture,
Speaker 10
citizens just text there's no audio that they came here, sound on Zoom.
Speaker 3
Just around is there a way that we can investigate that situation and rectify it?
Unknown Speaker
If
Speaker 5
the blossom is to fix the needs that was there
Unknown Speaker
to see if that's the case? Okay. Can we hold up? We said we got I'm sorry, I can't hear what
Speaker 3
you just said. Now, okay, thank you. Thank you, Commissioner pardon for your comment. Please have a public
Unknown Speaker
spot ready for
Unknown Speaker
Hello, can you hear me? Yeah. Okay,
Speaker 14
thank you. Um, you know the person who did the convocation said nothing is by accident. I'm beginning to think yeah, there are a lot of things that are happening that are not by accident. I have witnessed police who escalate situations instead of de escalate the situations. I've had DPD officers put their hands on me five times. Now the last time was November 8. So the police are not properly trained, but I'm calling because how do I get the police to investigate a breaking and entering that happened to me, and a major theft. I went down to the third precinct I called 911, a b&e, supposed to be a 911 call. I had to call the chief of community policing to get someone to respond. And then I keep calling the third precinct and I don't get a response the investigators supposed to be Jennifer Adams. I pretty sure I know who the suspect is who did it. But if there's no follow up from the police, how am I supposed to have faith in the police and I want to support the men and women in blue who do their job on it honestly, ethically and responsibly. But what am I paying taxes for so Commissioner Burton Will you please help me get the police to respond? If we can investigate this person and figure it out? When you please respond to me, please? What am I paying taxes for? If the police won't help me I'm going to ask to have my taxes lowered because the police don't respond.
Unknown Speaker
Did I get cut off? No, ma'am. We can hear everything you're saying.
Speaker 14
Okay, so please, I know this aspect. I saw him by my house but I was with my 12 year old neighbor, and I didn't want her to be put in any harm. But the police won't follow up when I finally got him to show up that.
Speaker 5
Next week, call him for being Miss Brenda. He'll call the bar district or advisory council member Scotty Bowman. It's all about a call with collateral damage. 061. Yes, I'm
Speaker 15
here. I can hear you. But there's a lot of feedback. And it's been since before you call the meeting to order. So the sound is there, but there's a lot of feedback every time you all speak. In fact, when Joanne was just speaking, there was no feedback. But when Mr. Brown and Annie were speaking there's a lot of feedback. So maybe they cannot pick that and thank you for having this meeting. And as we see all over the country, policing is failing it there must be reformed, and yes, even in DPD I just saw a report on television, where there's a cover up on the shooting of a dog. I mean, if you cover up a shooting of a dog, and it's systemic in the department, because one officer shot the dog, and then several officers came back to retrain the body of the dog. That's the cover up That's the problem. I believe we all want the same thing, the best police department in this country, but we need the citizens to believe in the police department to believe that they are there to protect and serve and to do even more than that. And the fact that you keep coming on and saying that it's a stressful job, that they go into line of fire. Yes, but that's the job if you don't want to do it, quit and you must root out all the bad you have to. We can't keep allowing evil in and then be surprised when evil happens. We want I want the best police department I believe that's all we all want. And we need to stop covering up, root out all the bad and be the best police department in Detroit and we don't have that.
Unknown Speaker
Moment
Speaker 5
Madam Chair Mr. Bowden is here I go to the next speaker Joe Thank you Mr. Brown audio. Okay.

You know, everybody's saying that I'm just trying to get home and everybody else is just trying to get home now. Well, you know what this red light running and drag race in situation? It is our problem. We must network and find solutions. If we don't, it's gonna end up catching up with us. You know, I say let's protect our relatives, our spouses, our children, our parents, and I love one. I know three very well known people who have been hit in the back Sideswipe people and and everything else, but I can't mention a name for privacy reasons. But you think about it. So you got people trying to get to Mars, Neptune, Pluto, Jupiter and everywhere else defend life. Can we not save a life in Detroit? I thank them for didn't make me. They did.

Thank you so much and thank you, commissioners.
Speaker 17
Chair. I know that Mr. Brown said you have to say the motion. Thank you
Unknown Speaker
that the police commissioners appointed
Unknown Speaker
to the Board of Commissioners.
Unknown Speaker
Thank you. The Chair. Yes, sir.
Unknown Speaker
Is it appropriate to call the
Unknown Speaker
candidate course at your
Unknown Speaker
pleasure? There's any comment that
Speaker 3
would we can hold off please. Thank you for
Unknown Speaker
your consideration. Yes and moved out of committee.
Speaker 3
There's a motion to recommend the LPS appointment.
Unknown Speaker
Jerome, work here.
Speaker 3
As Chief Investigator of the Detroit Auto police commissioners,
Speaker 2
I'll see ya. Ready for defense? See, that's where I get confused. Yes, I'll second the motion.
Speaker 3
And this is where I get fogged out. So we can debate if this point Correct. Okay, the
Unknown Speaker
motion is fully open for debate.
Unknown Speaker
Thank you. So
Commissioner Bernard
thank you, Madam Chair. And also thank you, Adam. parliamentarian. I was a member of the committee. We spent the entire days by interviewing people and listening to them. I had to leave at four o'clock to go and catch an airplane. At that time. We had heard from the candidates and Mr. Warfield was the last candidate. It's 315 in the afternoon, I participated in maybe 50% of the questions for Mr. Warfield. I, I've heard met him and I've heard Mr. Warfield speak before this board on many occasions. He's articulate. He is very involved, I think in the community in general at least that's that's my impression. He has a church hall the Unity Church, which is a huge facility on there on time and more than 10 20,000 square feet. The church program, which is a multi million dollar program, these activities are major activities and are all consuming if you are the pastor, at least that's my view. Because churches, churches and ecclesiastical well operation it's a business. So when you're running an ecclesiastical corporation or business of this magnitude, with a multimillion dollar contracts, etc. I don't understand how, despite all of his abilities and and and intelligence is Petra can possibly give OCI and our constituents the time and attention they need with respect to handling and investigations. area, Madam Chairperson, we have received the most criticism, but let's community at large and leave it in terms of our public comments. Wonderful guy, but he cannot you can't serve. Two has the same time. The church is a full time activity. He cannot give the attention that I would like to have for OCI. Purely it's just impossible. I understand that. Hey, well, that's that part. But so does being a minister and I just don't think I think we deserve time indicate that you can't be full time just on the face of it as chairperson. So that's my comments. I cannot support that resolution. I respect the candidate greatly.
Unknown Speaker
Thank you, Commissioner. Commissioner Holly,
Jim Holley
you know, as a pastor, and all my colleagues said about his qualifications, should ask that question to him. Whether he's going to be able to do both. One up, it costs to the asker to interview all in Kamal, hacker purposes. Obviously, he feels he can go do one or the other, or he can basically go and give one up. But the point is, is that, that that's not that's not for debate. I think it's fair to whether or not what he could do what he came to you because you had an opportunity to interview him. I asked that we just moved to the point of hold if you don't mind.
Unknown Speaker
I would like to weigh in on this discussion. Madam Chair. Madam Chair, and not taking attendance.
Unknown Speaker
10 seconds please. I'm sorry.
Speaker 10
Madam chair you gave three and a half minutes if
Speaker 3
you would allow me to please apologize for interrupting you. Because I have a question I'd like to pose to the parliamentarian. Would you allow me Sure. You'll have your minutes. Somewhere in this debate arena as it relates to Robert's Rules of Order. It may be too late to insert a time restriction. So could I say at some point two minutes, three minutes,
Speaker 17
the chair does not have that authority. Thank you, the board can adopt a motion to limit discussion of this motion to X number of minutes. That is a non debatable motion requires two thirds. It can be amended but it cannot be debated. Thank you. You can do that at any point. The chair does not have the authority to do that.
Unknown Speaker
Thank you again.
Speaker 10
Thank you. I just want to say on the record that you every candidate that came before the board would have been nice and we would have seen every applicant that apply for a secretary position, as well as his chief investigator. Well, what I've noticed is a interview process that where Phil was the best qualified advocate and out of those that we interviewed on that particular variety, that only did he answer every question correctly. But I was more impressed with his skill set and how he hopes and has an elevated the office. Offices Chief Investigator when he's here's his tenure as shepherds sheperson. The border police officers when an individual is oh my god, it's a pastor or church or behind my ear mom of a moss. And that's to call it My God. But even those tasks or those individuals still has, you know, full time employment elsewhere. And so, you know,
Unknown Speaker
it's work ethic
Speaker 10
with this board when I was coming on as a commissioner we mentioned the word Bill was actually coming off. We served with a office with him, but when I know about this man, even when I was in a similar capacity with DPS. I was appointed to be there on their police and oversight committee with schools years ago. I was watching this very carefully and closely and Pastor Wharfedale was the guy that really had a relationship with the community. I had a relationship with staff, and people would would you know, would listen to him and they would take them seriously and he was somebody that was buying the book, and that's what we need someone that's buying the book, and so on. It's gonna get the job done. If it was I don't gamble but I was a gambling man. My that would be on work, Phil. He is the man for this position. If we want to you know
Unknown Speaker
with that his work
Speaker 10
has went downhill. The board has gone tremendously downhill. What happened to the interims and positions for nearly three years and by bound the board has opportunities to get back on track. Right here today, with Pastor Ron Warfield. Over here in OCI. I see this backhoe problem getting taken care of, which is an ongoing problem with many citizens. But you know, you want to have the right person and then I can add that needed this job done and work bill is definitely that guy. Are you looking for someone who's not looking just for you know, you know, 30 hours, 24 hours, hours this man is going to work around the clock for the board and make the world look good and so many ways. It's a problem for everybody for citizens. Reporter police commissioner's office community. It's a big problem. It's long overdue. Just that we get discharged on work.
Unknown Speaker
Trust me, Madam Chair. Yes.
Unknown Speaker
Mr. Warfield to the microphone. Okay, can we please move on this motion?
Unknown Speaker
The chair didn't call me. Okay, there's too much interference going on.
Speaker 3
So make sure Commissioner Burton, you've come to a close? Yes. Okay. I understand the question. You're
Speaker 17
gonna leave the call. There's no one else we have anything to say you just move the vote on the mouse. Okay.
Unknown Speaker
So
Unknown Speaker
I think transaksi is trying to get your attention
Speaker 18
to the chair. I will just note that every commissioner has the opportunity to ask questions of the candidate in the gist of this particular forum. So if the chair if we can make sure it does have a question for the candidate, they may ask them
Speaker 2
Okay, and this is where I'm confused. Because the opportunity was not was
Speaker 3
really nice to Michelle. So yeah. Aware, so we don't get into trouble when we now your attorney Saxby, you're saying we can stop this voting or delay though Oh, don't Oh, and allow the candidate
Speaker 18
No, no Madam Chair. This is part of this process. So a commissioner can ask a question to the candidate during this process.
Jim Holley
Once you say that in beginning with the other lady. It was unanimous
Unknown Speaker
question was
Speaker 10
well, I have my hand up to ask the question and I was I really recognized by the chair
Speaker 3
if we were to allow the parliamentarian on some some of these concerns, I know you aren't we would not be
Unknown Speaker
in this process of
Speaker 3
debating among ourselves or having conversations. So if I just had should say if it is okay with the ball, right, that we will
Unknown Speaker
allow just part of the process manager
Commissioner Bernard
who's in charge?
Commissioner Banks
Oh My apologies, Madam Vice Chair.
Unknown Speaker
Oh, really? Really.
Unknown Speaker
Again,
Speaker 3
I don't necessarily see it to me there's an interruption with what we started out. It's all fun. To have pastor Warfield. Come in. respond to questions, then that is the wish
Unknown Speaker
of the board
Unknown Speaker
as to Wharfedale
Unknown Speaker
Yes, sir.
Commissioner Banks
I mean, we just say the war with the US. I mean, if you bring past a war heel forward
Speaker 3
okay. Because the vote for this show was unanimous. That was not necessarily necessary. On that point, Commissioner bass, I'm suggesting we allow commissioners to speak with Mr. Meeting with Pastor Warfield. I see Commissioner Presley.
Speaker 19
Hall. Just score a point of clarification. It was my understanding that the reason why questioning of a secretary call was unnecessary because the board called for question and to pass the question next month, because it was a unanimous vote but because there was a question that was called an employee
Unknown Speaker
in discussion. Thank you, Commissioner Presley. Now,
Unknown Speaker
this new
Unknown Speaker
layer
Speaker 3
this layer has been introduced as relates to pass the Wharfedale. Everywhere were to move forward violating
Unknown Speaker
rules of order. Anything that
Unknown Speaker
will we will be in any way violating.
Speaker 17
I'm 
assuming that the attorney gave a legal interpretation from the viewpoint of parliamentary procedure is inappropriate. I would yield to the legal opinion. The motion before the condition is to adopt the recommendation of the committee. That recommendation that motion speaking strictly from parliamentary law, that motion does not provide for questioning of a candidate would yield to the law department. Thank you
+1
assuming that the attorney gave a legal interpretation from the viewpoint of parliamentary procedure is inappropriate. I would yield to the legal opinion. The motion before the condition is to adopt the recommendation of the committee. That recommendation that motion speaking strictly from parliamentary law, that motion does not provide for questioning of a candidate would yield to the law department. Thank you Speaker 3
parliamentarian Okay, what I'm going to do is
Speaker 2
know the remainder of this recommendation as we recommendation from the shop so on that point, there's no question and now we needed a no questions. So now we can vote.
Unknown Speaker
The motion before
Speaker 17
the Board of Commissioners is to adopt the recommendation of the clearing, to adapt to hire drone Warfield as the chief investigator. If there's no one else who have any other comments to make and debate, then you can you don't need to call for the question. You could just go for the boat now someone else has something else to debate. There's no motion to limit debate. So up to the chair to call on both commissioners who wish to continue to speak
Unknown Speaker
to the chair. In this case,
Speaker 18
it commissioner has voiced that they have a question for a candidate. It is my opinion that the commissioner or the full body should have the ability to to have to have that question answers to the candidate in order for them to have an informed vote here.
Speaker 18
It's up to the board whether or not they want to listen to the opinion what is the last Congress opinion
Jim Holley
as Gilbert's gonna help you,
Unknown Speaker
please, Commissioner Holly,
Jim Holley
just have Mr. Warfield come to the end. The management is capable and didn't come. They still Mr. Moore. Mr. Moore was asking as always ask him for a question. For time sake. Let the candidate come as Mr. More like have a question. I'm sure that we got time to either want to ask a question.
Speaker 3
Thank you, Commissioner. Oh, Holly. You're writing permission and more.
Unknown Speaker
Thank you. Could you please come to the mic?
Unknown Speaker
Good afternoon
Unknown Speaker
to this Honorable Lady. And thank
Unknown Speaker
you for your participation.
Unknown Speaker
What are your thoughts about this debate? We can hear you.
Unknown Speaker
What are your thoughts about this debate that we're having on
Speaker 20
the chair? First of all, again, thank you for the opportunity to be here. I'll get directly to the point. I was a full time pastor. When Adelaide white more Alliance and in the community from a volunteer organization to a fully paid staff organization 14 years ago and therefore we pay still now today. I was a full time pastor. When I hired over 1200 young people and there are so many youth deployment programs and hate them over a million dollars in payroll for 12 years. As a full time pastor, when I sat on this board for four years times a chair, one time overseeing these polling operations where the time when we're doing is constituted the officers chief investigator. That was a full time pastor. Thankfully, for eight years as I served in Lansing, although she can grow more amount of prisoners over 40,000 down to 39,000. Paul was the pastor in the hospital so it can either was an apostle but also officiellement Jesus was a carpenter. Moses was overheard when we have passed or behind our name. It is not a purely if nothing else, it's gonna be a calm or even a semicolon to continue to deliver on second who sent us while it is today. And I fully do the job as the chief investigator of OCI absolutely, positively Yes. 100% of my time. absolutely, positively. Yes chair. And as it relates to our daycare center, that is rent space. We rent that space out to another company who uses our facility to bring this space here. I have a full staff at my church. I've always had a full staff that allows me to serve the community in various capacities. Just like Pastor Holly asked the man Bishop, van and so many more. So I hope that answers your question. Thank you,
Unknown Speaker
Pastor Warfield to The Chair
Speaker 17
Okay. Which vote you have to vote on that motion, Madam Chair.
Unknown Speaker
Okay. So,
Speaker 3
this is around so that we can vote on
Unknown Speaker
the call the question would
Unknown Speaker
call the question Yes. Listen, Bernard, tell
Unknown Speaker
me again,
Unknown Speaker
if you could please listen to Burton. Yes. More. Yes. Yes, yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. It was.
Speaker 5
Both. Yes. Both. No one No vote. Madam Chair.
Unknown Speaker
Thank you, Mr. Brown,
Unknown Speaker
and have to take the motion. To
Unknown Speaker
accept the motion to
Speaker 3
recommend recommendation. Pastor Jerome Warfield as the chief investigator, the appointment pastor Warfield as the chief investigator for the board of police
Unknown Speaker
commissioners. That's the
Unknown Speaker
motion currently before the board no more debate.
Speaker 3
Before the board, no more debates. And at this point we
Speaker 17
vote on whether or not to accept the recommendation of the committee. That's wrong. Warfield be hired as chief investigator.
Speaker 3
Thank you parliamentarian so very much as a strong with you called the coalition is
Unknown Speaker
names that it's your hope. Yes. Hell Yes. Listen, the burden. Yes. More. Yes. Yes, Holly? Yes. Yes.
Speaker 5
I'm sure there was seven years to one novo.
Unknown Speaker
Thank you. Um, so
Speaker 3
Darius, Pastor Jerome Warfield as the chief investigator or the police commissioner, Madam Chair,
Commissioner Bernard
Madam Chair, amateur comments quickly.
Unknown Speaker
Excuse me, okay. First,
Speaker 10
I like to I like to put a motion out there on a table by me. We just saw where we had an interface to enter rooms and these different positions, and we saw the amount of money that these intervals were earning for the three years that they were in office. I like to move. I make the motion right now today. Move that we pay our secretary and chief investigator, the same dollar amount that
Unknown Speaker
our
Speaker 10
previous interim Secretary as well as interim chief investigator were earning we can hit it on the same dollar amount that they were earning, because now we have our full time staff back and and ready to
Unknown Speaker
some things going.
Unknown Speaker
So
Speaker 10
far for the motion, I move that we pay our chief investigator. Secretary is the same dollar amount that we was reading recently. And our interims confirmed to colleagues, Madam Chair
Unknown Speaker
second, the motion failed
Unknown Speaker
commissioner and
Unknown Speaker
the next thing
Speaker 19
Thank you, Madam Chair, just wanted to take this opportunity to commend Commissioner Hernandez upon leading this effort. I know when I came on the board. This was an issue that we were trying to solve for a very long time, but I think she needs to be commended for the work he's done to ensure that we've had the secretary
Commissioner Bernard
like to commend Commissioner Hernandez for his efforts with respect to this process, and I'd also like to congratulate both candidates of Hastur Warfield Mr Warfield as as well as his Victoria Shaw, and I just want the community to know that I don't have any, you know, kind of election, if you will, about, about candidates and so forth, and I obviously have lifelong Catholic, support the ministry in every sense of the word, but my concern is only for the community and the amount of time that it's going to take to really make OCI stellar, like it should be as opposed to just you know, something that's constantly criticized just so important to me, Jim, I mean, I know you and I both know it takes 60 hours a week to write a ship that's gone wrong. It can't be done in 40 hours a week. You just have to have the time and in order to do that, so I wish you the best as to anything I can do to help you. I'll be happy to do that. But I just can't have listened to Utah anymore. We are way behind just in terms of backlog. Talking about a trove of creative ideas and initiatives regarding community involvement. There's just so much out there that we're not doing that has to do and I know how much time and attention it takes to to build the house, if you will, that it truly works. So we won't have issues like lady that was before. So this leads, I mean, the kind of commentary that she expressed shouldn't happen in the city of Detroit and shouldn't happen with our office. So that was my concern. At the time and attention that is necessary to write a ship that has gone wrong. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for allowing me.
Unknown Speaker
What else? Thank you.
Speaker 8
And in light of the fact I believe that we
Speaker 3
we as a community have witnessed a shot throw at the mic. So we basically have some idea as to the kind of performance she will bring to the board and with Pastor Warfield. A lot of people know him even though I only met him last year at one of the board meetings. He feels about taking on this this monumental challenge. I'm gonna we just move from this point and allow for cheap price report. As opposed to having those two to
Unknown Speaker
tie them on the agenda.
Speaker 21
You're 
gonna have to lose the word cgda Lavallee. She pointed to step out I'll be presenting the chief record. Start with an update on injured officers. We currently have three members of the department who are disabled and recovering at home due to an on duty injury.

Unknown Speaker
Thank you, Ali. Any questions to the Assistant Chief of ally?
Commissioner Banks
Yeah, 
one right here. Thanks. Yes. Chief Issei officers interview the victims that was at the scene. Okay. What type of information are you allowed to give out? What type of information was that saying?
+1
one right here. Thanks. Yes. Chief Issei officers interview the victims that was at the scene. Okay. What type of information are you allowed to give out? What type of information was that saying? Jim Holley
Yes,
Speaker 21
I assumed the shooting team. Yes, of course. Generally, information that we would give out from those interviews would be descriptions, suspects descriptions. That's usually how we record information to the media. When we put out a description of somebody we're looking for. As far as specifics of the shooting scene, we wouldn't generally make too much of that public unless it's necessary to ensure the safety of residents around the area. But that's not generally information. We will put out or just be descriptions.
Commissioner Banks
Do you have any strong leads on the suspects?
Unknown Speaker
Not on that case yet. Oh, okay.
Unknown Speaker
I'm all through maps Chair. Thank you.
Unknown Speaker
Commissioner Bernard.
Commissioner Bernard
Oh, I'm sorry. Apologize. You know me I can't hear anyway. I just wanted to comment on on the stash that the to just reference the the biggest area for all these things that I can see in terms of us not in terms of real, real aggressive if you will increase in crime
Unknown Speaker
concept.
Commissioner Bernard
motor vehicle theft is often every precinct every single precinct except one. So I'm asking, is there anything special that you want that you can advise the community to do now that we should do in order to address
Unknown Speaker
this problem?
Speaker 21
certainly 
heard that has gone up in this year, we've percent considerably over last year. Last two years, we saw a huge decrease in heart bass and saw a big decrease in multi property crimes. The last couple of years during COVID time and now we're getting back to what our free COVID numbers were. As far as preventing auto theft. I mean, there are a lot of products that you can use. But one of the biggest things is if you have the ability to to secure your vehicle in your yard. I mean that's a vehicle taken off from the street or out of the bottom of the driveway occurs much more often than vehicles that are secured closer to a house or in a backyard. Also parking so we see we've seen an increase in auto theft in areas, your stadiums near downtown and continually try to encourage people to park in parking structures. The parking structures are well lit and occupied. The organized parking lots are well lit and occupied. So we do experience a lot where people will come to events and then they'll park on the street and AB save the parking expensive Arkin infrastructure in the majority of the crime related to autos, even if it's not a full auto faculty, the breaking of an auto occurs when cars are parked on side streets that aren't well lit compared to a parking lot. So that's one thing to keep in mind is
+2
heard that has gone up in this year, we've percent considerably over last year. Last two years, we saw a huge decrease in heart bass and saw a big decrease in multi property crimes. The last couple of years during COVID time and now we're getting back to what our free COVID numbers were. As far as preventing auto theft. I mean, there are a lot of products that you can use. But one of the biggest things is if you have the ability to to secure your vehicle in your yard. I mean that's a vehicle taken off from the street or out of the bottom of the driveway occurs much more often than vehicles that are secured closer to a house or in a backyard. Also parking so we see we've seen an increase in auto theft in areas, your stadiums near downtown and continually try to encourage people to park in parking structures. The parking structures are well lit and occupied. The organized parking lots are well lit and occupied. So we do experience a lot where people will come to events and then they'll park on the street and AB save the parking expensive Arkin infrastructure in the majority of the crime related to autos, even if it's not a full auto faculty, the breaking of an auto occurs when cars are parked on side streets that aren't well lit compared to a parking lot. So that's one thing to keep in mind is Commissioner Bernard
your type of vehicle. The vehicles that seem to be more prevalent, the low with the blue are our community all of us I don't want my car stolen,
Speaker 21
right right now two of the biggest one of the biggest vehicles being stolen right now our key is and that's nationwide. There's usually he has been stolen. We have worked with the auto manufacturer in several law enforcement agencies in the country have and they were actually they may have been sued. We did not participate in the lawsuit but to get them to change some of their practices on how they're able to secure vehicles because they started remotely I believe with some sort of program that's done an iPad, the vehicles can be started. And that led to a large number of deaths of kids that is being changed by the auto manufacturer. The second vehicle that we're seeing is Chevy trailblazers. That is a high def vehicle
Unknown Speaker
course and we are also
Speaker 21
working with the manufacturer of that vehicle we work with. We work with all the automotive manufacturers to work out ways to help make vehicles harder to steal we also have a strategy in place that involves identifying the areas where vehicle parts and vehicles that are being stolen and heard about where those parts are going. suspicions of those businesses are increasing. We have partnership with the BC which the building safety computing Enforcement Division to go in and do those inspections to eliminate the ability for oddities to make money off of it.
Speaker 3
Thank you, commissioners have a question. Yes, Commissioner Lee and then obviously Commissioner Berta
Jim Holley
chairperson of Commissioner Mullard wanted to help if we send people to jail, when they when they basically get caught with a car and other help a whole lot other putting their own tellers and we got a percentage of the same feeling the same steps. Again, with a challenge on the help a whole lot. You got to go to a game it's a part of the game. You go talk on the street, you can't you can't afford it. Let it help a whole lot just asked if
Speaker 3
we're going to get there faster process and allow other commissioners to get in on the conversation. So Mr. Hawley are you
Jim Holley
up to one more question, sir, I got a book book. This is related to my end of my term. And one of my books, is that the chaplain corps, ask if you live please. Of course it's apple. They have no no budget. They do funerals, do hospitals. Call Home calls, all this stuff with no money. And I'm asking if you would, if you could just give like a card to the Catholic chaplain corps, like $2,000 a month. You can't keep up on the foundation can't do it again, because you're presently to help us. But I'm just saying to you again, that I just feel like that is too long overdue that we do nothing to help these hapless us to move around. As the only sensible thing to do. Participated killers golden halter. I'm asking you to do me a favor, and nobody else list. Dividing Yes. Can you help me? Ask the sheep to go take care of this? On my behalf? Yes. And our body no more today. Thank you. Thank you.
Speaker 3
Wanting to get in on this discussion when it first came before the Budget Committee. In discussion with the DPD budget. We were surprised that there were no provisions or no line item to support the chaplets. So hopefully I certainty in the valley you're going to manage that and get back with us as to the outcome in terms of supporting the DPD chaplets Yes, I
Speaker 21
will work on that. I know they are a volunteer strictly voluntary. group but certainly mileage it's not an expense that they should incur on their own. You give you pause correct. We did uniforms, we should take care of their mileage. They
Jim Holley
look they look good.
Unknown Speaker
And they roll.
Commissioner Bernard
No, no. Can we see what other cities are? Doing for their triathlons. So maybe we can get an idea of what we should do. Is that okay?
Speaker 3
Would you indulge us to launch that micro learning resource so that we'll have some parameters and thank you Commissioner for making the suggestion. Okay.
Speaker 10
Yes, question that I have is what I have for you before she and that question has to be like a copy of the coral report. And do you know any names that's listed in the core report?
Speaker 21
Yes, burden. I do know, the names like I told you before the department doesn't maintain a copy of that report because it's now outside of the chyme or record retention for that type of report. So the department doesn't have the record. That's the answer. I gave you the course still the same answer.
Unknown Speaker
Thank you. You gave me a copy of it. Do you have access to get a copy of it?
Unknown Speaker
I have a personal copy of it. Yes. I like that.
Speaker 10
I like a copy of your copy. I would be happy to provide you with that with nothing redacted.
Speaker 21
Nothing to redact. I guess I'll talk a little bit about the report. If you want
Unknown Speaker
to record today please.
Unknown Speaker
To the question that was posed. Like that report.
Unknown Speaker
Thank you Commissioner. The clock is ticking.
Unknown Speaker
The question you Madam Chair.
Unknown Speaker
So you're getting a second go round.
Commissioner Banks
Speaker Madam Chair.
Unknown Speaker
Thank you. Thanks.
Commissioner Banks
Thank you so much. Appreciate you.
Unknown Speaker
See now you ready
Commissioner Banks
to sit in the back. What type of strategies you get into the community those in this world those are how to keep their car safe. You can use just mentioned all the cars being sold throughout the city of Detroit feel skills which would you give you all these soon. All how can they be saved?
Speaker 21
Well, 
yeah, like I already mentioned, there are aftermarket products you could purchase alarms, there's clubs and there's things like that you can put on your car, where you park your car is something to be cognizant of, if you can avoid parking it out of the street or in dark areas away from lighting the cars parked in your garage or in your backyard. There's a lot less opportunity for it to be stolen. So aside from that, it's the strategies of the police department on identifying the individuals the locations. So that's the police department's part as far as an individual and the only strategy they can do is to properly lock the are those devices that are available to help prevent theft and be cognizant of where it's parked.
+3

Unknown Speaker
What are what
Unknown Speaker

Commissioner Banks
these things? These things?
Speaker 21
It's up in all the precincts as Commissioner mentioned, I believe the 12 is the highest the highest increase. All right, thank you. Yes.
Speaker 3
Any other questions? Commissioner. Thank you for sharing with the community. Too to TPD is some of the social facts of our relationship with me and in fact, I would like for the border police commissioners in the funeral chair to get a calendar of those various events.
Speaker 21
I would like to say one more thing that I changed my mind. I'm not going to give Commissioner Burton a copy of the report that I have my own research and get the report out on his own.
Unknown Speaker
Okay, thank you
Speaker 3
is having a black family luncheon on the 18th and that event is o'clock. So I plan to go over to that event. Again. Hopefully we will create some of those social events will also allow us to interact with various constituents. Thank you, Assistant Chief
Speaker 2
Minister Brown. Good afternoon
Unknown Speaker
Madam Chair.
Unknown Speaker
The
Speaker 5
correspondence as listed on the agenda is currently in your allow the commission to package and just go to analysis which 23rd Repeat top of the city headquarters. This community will be marched length at 6:30pm with downtown Services hosted at historic Second Second Baptist Church that addresses for one Monroe Street.
Speaker 5
Madam Chair, if you want me to lock and go back to you see I have two people who didn't get to sleep in or communicate.
Unknown Speaker
Oh please do Mr. Morrow and Thank you
Unknown Speaker
Hello, have you heard Yes. Sir.
Speaker 22
Okay, first off, I like to say I have no problem. In fact, I would have probably voted for both of those candidates. I just did like the process. Awesome. I would like to say that Detroit Nan is going to be having a digital equity tour. He's going to be having it at Focus held on February 28 from 10am to 3pm. Over there in district two, and we expect to have hundreds of people to come out. That might be a good opportunity for the police to have a table at at our at our event so they can help to encourage some Detroit us to sign up for Detroit Police Department and our event we're going to be helping people get connected to the Internet or free or reduced price is going to take advantage of that. The bill back better. Information a program that's available on the President Biden also we're gonna be encouraging making sure as always, Nan always wants to sign up people to vote because you know part of my emphasis to close the digital divide in the Sydney show. And also make sure that each of the seven districts have a higher voter turnout because there's a whole lot we need to do especially. It helps I get more people out to vote. Thank you. But yeah, yeah, feel free to Yes. Okay.
Speaker 3
Well before we leave I'm asking if you could email that information regarding that event. And I'm sure we can share it with a human resource director and if
Unknown Speaker
there is we want to
Speaker 3
record recruiting calendar allows her to be I would have every reason to believe she take advantage of it. So again, asking you to email your information to register
Unknown Speaker
on please
Unknown Speaker
I could send us and stuff and we also haven't done a then break
Unknown Speaker
I said I would have to pay me
Speaker 22
and I was saying is everybody else's also posted on the Eventbrite that you could sign up for we send it out information to 1000s of people. We're going to do it in each district.
Speaker 2
Thank you. Just a moment can you hear me this time? Yes, sir. Oh, good. Okay,
Speaker 23
the audio is finally working. Um, yeah, I've I had a few things I was gonna say but I guess one of them is that I'm a little bothered by the lack of transparency in the selecting process. I like both of the people I know about both of the people that you picked. But I think it would have been appropriate to have all the commissioners in on the process and to at least have some finalists interviewed publicly, rather than to just have a up and down vote and to find two people, you know, one for each office. Again, it's no disrespect to those people. I like both of them. I've communicated with both of them. I think there were good choices. And everything I'm just a little curious about so it just seems like one of your commissioners has been on the board for quite a while and I'm just wondering if she When is her five years is going to be complete and that's any hole. Just wondering about that. Oh, and finally, one closing comment. This coming Friday. We not tomorrow, but a week from tomorrow will be another hearing with the 36th District Court another pre trial hearing. For the officer who beats Dwayne Jones who beat up Shelby Smith at receiving hospital and August of 2018. And as many of you know, he was convicted of a violent crime and while having that conviction over his head was able to get a promotion. because of problems with the contract which did best my knowledge has not been fixed and now he's getting a second trial. So you know, right now that isn't hanging over his head. But the point is the promotion happened when it was and there's something wrong with our contract process. Thank you have a good day.
Speaker 5
