DESCRIPTION:The Santa Cruz County Chapter of the ACLU of Northern California presents a 
 community forum on the timely and urgent issue of the use of force by 
 police.  The event is free and open to the public.\n\nThe speakers will be 
 four prominent experts on the topic:  Oakland civil rights attorney John 
 Burris, whose work emphasizes police misconduct excessive force cases, 
 including Rodney King and Oscar Grant’s family; Santa Cruz Public 
 Defender and recent candidate for Superior Court Judge, Zach Schwarzbach; 
 Santa Cruz Police Chief Andy Mills; and Pacific Grove Police Chief Amy 
 Christey.  Fred Smith, author of “Blue Lights in Your Mirror,” will 
 moderate.\n\nThe use of often-deadly force by police has been an 
 increasingly visible and urgent issue in recent years, with the deaths of 
 Laquan McDonald, Stephon Clark, Michael Brown, Eric Garner, and many 
 others.  The forum will center on AB 931, the bill by California Assembly 
 member Shirley Weber that was introduced this past legislative session and 
 will be taken up again next  year.  Among other things, AB 931 would set a 
 higher standard for law enforcement officers to use lethal force against 
 civilians, requiring that the use of lethal force be necessary and not 
 merely reasonable.   The panelists promise to explore all sides of this 
 important issue.\n\n
