<br /> <br />2009 Overview <br /> <br />In 2009 the Board performed eight case reviews including the first Community Impact Case <br />Throughout first eight months of the year, the Board monitored the status of the Community <br />Impact case through the criminal proceedings and IA investigation. <br /> <br /> February – Board training from Dr. David Murphy (Western Oregon University) on <br />excessive force and the use of Tasers. <br /> <br /> March – Dr. Snell Fontus joins the Board. A case review was conducted regarding issues <br />of an unlawful arrest and an illegal search. The Board majority concurred with the Police <br />Auditor’s recommended adjudication to sustain the allegations. Acting police auditor Dawn <br />Reynolds was placed on administrative leave by the Council. <br /> <br /> April – A Case review conducted regarding use of force/use of the Taser. Specifically, <br />the case involved the use of a Taser on a mentally ill person. Unanimously, the Board <br />concurred with the Auditor’s recommendation that the allegations be sustained. The review <br />highlighted the need for refinement of the Taser policy with regard to its usage on people who <br />are mentally ill and/or appear to be experiencing a psychotic episode. <br /> <br /> May – Tim Laue is appointed to the Board. A case review held regarding use of force/use <br />of the Taser. The board majority voted in agreement with the Auditor’s recommendation to <br />sustain the allegations on use of force, and concurred with the recommendation and decision <br />that the use of the Taser was within Policy. Mark Gissiner was hired by the Council as the new <br />Police Auditor. <br /> <br /> June – A case was reviewed regarding use of force. The review also raised policy issues <br />of when officers should be required to seek medical attention for persons injured during arrest. <br />The majority of the Board agreed with the Chief’s decision that the use of force was within <br />Policy. <br /> <br /> July – Mark Gissiner attends his first Civilian Review Board meeting. The case reviewed <br />pertained to wrongful arrest, excessive force and courtesy allegations. The Review raised issues <br />regarding the police department “party policy” – how loud parties should be dispersed while <br />protecting the civil rights of individuals. <br /> <br /> August – Bernadette Conover and Marisa Mendoza join the Board. The case reviewed <br />pertained to constitutional rights, and courtesy involving a late night stop the complainant <br />alleged to be discriminatory in nature. The Board majority agreed with the findings that the <br />actions were within Policy. <br /> <br />
