In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.","avatar":"https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/fc4e2a612b15b67bad0c6f0e1db4ca9b?s=600&d=blank&r=g","twitter":"MarkFiore","facebook":null,"instagram":"https://www.instagram.com/markfiore/?hl=en","linkedin":null,"sites":[{"site":"arts","roles":["contributor"]},{"site":"news","roles":["editor"]},{"site":"futureofyou","roles":["editor"]},{"site":"science","roles":["editor"]}],"headData":{"title":"Mark

Privacy advocates worry the public is losing any sense of control over the widespread collection of data on its purchases, travel habits, friendships, health, business transactions and personal communications.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the same time, cities and counties across the country are facing renewed scrutiny for accepting the transfer of military technology from the Pentagon. The national biometric database is part of the transition of military-grade technologies and information-gathering strategies from the Pentagon to civilian law enforcement. During the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq over the past decade, the U.S. military collected and stored biometric information on millions of civilians and militants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2008, President George W. Bush required the Defense, Homeland Security and Justice departments to establish common standards for collecting and sharing biometric information like iris scans and photos optimized for facial recognition. Law enforcement agencies have been testing mobile systems for documenting biometric information, including a facial recognition program uncovered in San Diego County last fall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Authorities in California already collect DNA swabs from arrestees booked into county jails, a practice upheld last year by the U.S. Supreme Court and this year by a federal appeals court in California. Dozens of other states also collect DNA samples from arrestees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Documents from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department show its database will house information on up to 15 million subjects, giving the department a major stake in the Next Generation Identification program, a billion-dollar update to the FBI’s national fingerprint database and the largest information technology project in the history of the U.S. Department of Justice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For privacy advocates, the development of the Los Angeles biometric system without any public oversight or debate and an indefinite data retention policy are causes for concern.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jeramie Scott, national security counsel for the Electronic Privacy Information Center, said it’s critical for the public to be aware that this new technology is being rolled out, because the information held by law enforcement poses unique threats to privacy and anonymity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Biometric data is something you cannot change if it is compromised,” Scott said. “There are privacy and civil liberties implications that come from law enforcement having multiple ways to identify someone without their consent.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scott, whose organization has sued the FBI to release information related to Next General Identification, added: “It becomes a one-sided debate when law enforcement alone is making that decision to use new technologies on the public.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hamid Khan, an organizer with the Stop LAPD Spying Coalition who studies police surveillance, said the arrival of Next Generation Identification means Los Angeles is now a frontier in the battle for privacy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Now our whole bodies are up for grabs,” Khan said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The multimodal biometric system under development by the sheriff’s department will collect four out of the five “inputs” used by the Next Generation Identification program – fingerprints, mug shots, iris scans and palm prints. Voice recordings are the fifth input.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The L.A. system is designed to transmit and receive data to and from the FBI and the California Department of Justice, which has its own biometric database.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Originally announced in 2008, Next Generation Identification is being rolled out across the country this year after pilot projects were carried out in Michigan, Maryland, Texas, Maine and New Mexico. About 17 million facial records already were integrated into Next Generation Identification as of January.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this year, residents and city officials in Compton were outraged that Los Angeles County sheriff’s officials had experimented with a cutting-edge aerial surveillance tool known as wide-area surveillance without any prior public notice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of people do have a problem with the eye in the sky, the Big Brother, so in order to mitigate any of those kinds of complaints, we basically kept it pretty hush-hush,” sheriff’s Sgt. Douglas Iketani told CIR earlier this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sheriff’s Lt. Joshua Thai, who is in charge of implementing the county’s new biometric database, said the department currently is collecting only fingerprints and has used mobile devices since 2006 to check the fingerprints of people stopped on the street against the county’s records.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thai said biometric information would be collected from people only when they are arrested and booked, but the mobile devices would be used to verify individuals’ identities in the field.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It could be somebody gets pulled over for a traffic violation and he or she does not have a driver’s license on him or her, and the officer is just trying to identify this person,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thai said the goal of the project is to help law enforcement officers better identify the people they contact and avoid wrongful arrests.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> “What we’re hoping is that based on the mug shot is that that will compensate some of the biometrics to maybe better identify this person,” Thai said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sheriff’s department declined to release information on which companies were already bidding to install the new system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to federal guidelines for the storage of biometric data in Next Generation Identification, information on an individual with a criminal record will be kept until that person is 99 years old. Information on a person without a criminal record will be purged when he or she turns 75.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FBI's guidelines for keeping biometric data on individuals, regardless of whether they have criminal records, “amounts to an indefinite retention period,” said Peter Bibring, a senior staff attorney with the Southern California ACLU. If the Next Generation Identification database simply were an update to the FBI’s existing fingerprint database, Bibring said the project wouldn't be problematic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, he said the biometric database “significantly expands the type of data law enforcement collects and creates a more invasive system” that may encourage police officers to make more stops in the field to gather photographs and biometric data for the new database.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts say the collection and storage of biometric information creates challenges for the legal system and personal privacy – challenges that have not been adequately considered in the planning and implementation of Next Generation Identification.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bibring said the new database, if paired with facial recognition-enabled surveillance cameras, could drastically increase law enforcement's ability to track a person’s movements just as license-plate readers track vehicles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The federal government is creating an architecture that will make it easy to identify where people are and were,” Bibring said. “It threatens people's anonymity and ability to move about without being monitored.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scott, of the Electronic Privacy Information Center, said FBI documents obtained by the center make it clear that uncertainty lingers about who has access to the biometric data that will be stored in the new federal database, and he has doubts regarding the security of such information.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dozens of Southern California law enforcement agencies have been using mobile fingerprinting devices in the field for roughly a decade. Gang officers routinely submit fingerprints, mug shots and photographs of tattoos and unique scars of suspected gang members to the statewide CalGang database, which contains information on over 13o,000 individuals statewide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The national biometric database also has come under fire from privacy advocates and civil libertarians because it is being implemented without a thorough study of its impact on privacy – which is required by federal law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They need to do this before any pilot programs, of which they've done two for facial recognition and iris recognition,” Scott said. “They're not meeting their legal obligations, which is now being followed up by state and local authorities.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Khan, of the Stop LAPD Spying Coalition, said such sensitive information in the hands of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department raises further questions about oversight and information security.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When we look at the multiple contractors and subcontractors and who will have access to this information,” he said, “the whole issue of identity theft comes to mind.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story was edited by Robert Salladay and copy edited by Nikki Frick and Christine Lee.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This story was produced by The Center for Investigative Reporting, an independent, nonprofit newsroom based in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Bush required the Defense, Homeland Security and Justice departments to establish common standards for collecting and sharing biometric information like iris scans and photos optimized for facial recognition. Law enforcement agencies have been testing mobile systems for documenting biometric information, including a facial recognition program uncovered in San Diego County last fall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Authorities in California already collect DNA swabs from arrestees booked into county jails, a practice upheld last year by the U.S. Supreme Court and this year by a federal appeals court in California. Dozens of other states also collect DNA samples from arrestees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Documents from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department show its database will house information on up to 15 million subjects, giving the department a major stake in the Next Generation Identification program, a billion-dollar update to the FBI’s national fingerprint database and the largest information technology project in the history of the U.S. Department of Justice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For privacy advocates, the development of the Los Angeles biometric system without any public oversight or debate and an indefinite data retention policy are causes for concern.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jeramie Scott, national security counsel for the Electronic Privacy Information Center, said it’s critical for the public to be aware that this new technology is being rolled out, because the information held by law enforcement poses unique threats to privacy and anonymity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Biometric data is something you cannot change if it is compromised,” Scott said. “There are privacy and civil liberties implications that come from law enforcement having multiple ways to identify someone without their consent.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scott, whose organization has sued the FBI to release information related to Next General Identification, added: “It becomes a one-sided debate when law enforcement alone is making that decision to use new technologies on the public.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hamid Khan, an organizer with the Stop LAPD Spying Coalition who studies police surveillance, said the arrival of Next Generation Identification means Los Angeles is now a frontier in the battle for privacy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Now our whole bodies are up for grabs,” Khan said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The multimodal biometric system under development by the sheriff’s department will collect four out of the five “inputs” used by the Next Generation Identification program – fingerprints, mug shots, iris scans and palm prints. Voice recordings are the fifth input.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The L.A. system is designed to transmit and receive data to and from the FBI and the California Department of Justice, which has its own biometric database.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Originally announced in 2008, Next Generation Identification is being rolled out across the country this year after pilot projects were carried out in Michigan, Maryland, Texas, Maine and New Mexico. About 17 million facial records already were integrated into Next Generation Identification as of January.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this year, residents and city officials in Compton were outraged that Los Angeles County sheriff’s officials had experimented with a cutting-edge aerial surveillance tool known as wide-area surveillance without any prior public notice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of people do have a problem with the eye in the sky, the Big Brother, so in order to mitigate any of those kinds of complaints, we basically kept it pretty hush-hush,” sheriff’s Sgt. Douglas Iketani told CIR earlier this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sheriff’s Lt. Joshua Thai, who is in charge of implementing the county’s new biometric database, said the department currently is collecting only fingerprints and has used mobile devices since 2006 to check the fingerprints of people stopped on the street against the county’s records.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thai said biometric information would be collected from people only when they are arrested and booked, but the mobile devices would be used to verify individuals’ identities in the field.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It could be somebody gets pulled over for a traffic violation and he or she does not have a driver’s license on him or her, and the officer is just trying to identify this person,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thai said the goal of the project is to help law enforcement officers better identify the people they contact and avoid wrongful arrests.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> “What we’re hoping is that based on the mug shot is that that will compensate some of the biometrics to maybe better identify this person,” Thai said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sheriff’s department declined to release information on which companies were already bidding to install the new system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to federal guidelines for the storage of biometric data in Next Generation Identification, information on an individual with a criminal record will be kept until that person is 99 years old. Information on a person without a criminal record will be purged when he or she turns 75.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FBI's guidelines for keeping biometric data on individuals, regardless of whether they have criminal records, “amounts to an indefinite retention period,” said Peter Bibring, a senior staff attorney with the Southern California ACLU. If the Next Generation Identification database simply were an update to the FBI’s existing fingerprint database, Bibring said the project wouldn't be problematic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, he said the biometric database “significantly expands the type of data law enforcement collects and creates a more invasive system” that may encourage police officers to make more stops in the field to gather photographs and biometric data for the new database.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts say the collection and storage of biometric information creates challenges for the legal system and personal privacy – challenges that have not been adequately considered in the planning and implementation of Next Generation Identification.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bibring said the new database, if paired with facial recognition-enabled surveillance cameras, could drastically increase law enforcement's ability to track a person’s movements just as license-plate readers track vehicles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The federal government is creating an architecture that will make it easy to identify where people are and were,” Bibring said. “It threatens people's anonymity and ability to move about without being monitored.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scott, of the Electronic Privacy Information Center, said FBI documents obtained by the center make it clear that uncertainty lingers about who has access to the biometric data that will be stored in the new federal database, and he has doubts regarding the security of such information.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dozens of Southern California law enforcement agencies have been using mobile fingerprinting devices in the field for roughly a decade. Gang officers routinely submit fingerprints, mug shots and photographs of tattoos and unique scars of suspected gang members to the statewide CalGang database, which contains information on over 13o,000 individuals statewide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The national biometric database also has come under fire from privacy advocates and civil libertarians because it is being implemented without a thorough study of its impact on privacy – which is required by federal law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They need to do this before any pilot programs, of which they've done two for facial recognition and iris recognition,” Scott said. “They're not meeting their legal obligations, which is now being followed up by state and local authorities.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Khan, of the Stop LAPD Spying Coalition, said such sensitive information in the hands of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department raises further questions about oversight and information security.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When we look at the multiple contractors and subcontractors and who will have access to this information,” he said, “the whole issue of identity theft comes to mind.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story was edited by Robert Salladay and copy edited by Nikki Frick and Christine Lee.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This story was produced by The Center for Investigative Reporting, an independent, nonprofit newsroom based in the San Francisco Bay Area.

In an instant, the system matches images taken in the field with databases of about 348,000 San Diego County arrestees. The system itself has nearly 1.4 million booking photos because many people have multiple mug shots on record.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The little-known program could become the largest expansion of facial recognition technology by U.S. law enforcement. Amid an international debate over collecting huge amounts of data on the public and sharing the information, the pilot program is putting that metadata to use in the field in real time.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">'What we're seeing now is much more surveillance-oriented, and it's in the guise of preventative policing.'\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>The use of this technology was rolled out without any public hearings or notice.

The project is coordinated by the San Diego Association of Governments and relies on a vast data-sharing program called the Automated Regional Justice Information System, or ARJIS.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For some, the use of biometric technology by police represents a radical milestone in the militarization of American law enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For years, technology that was developed on the battlefield has been migrating into domestic law enforcement. Since 9/11, America's wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have sped up that transfer. Facial recognition technology, which has been widely used by the military, is the next frontier.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we're seeing now is much more surveillance-oriented, and it's in the guise of preventative policing,” said Kevin Keenan, former executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of San Diego & Imperial Counties. “It's really this aspiration of prevention and social control through the monitoring of everyone's every action and storage in perpetuity.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Is this practice legal?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The legality of law enforcement using facial recognition technology has not been tested in the courts. But a Privacy Impact Assessment, which the Automated Regional Justice Information System helped write, claims that photos of everyday people can be taken during \"traditional police-civilian encounters.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Diego-area law enforcement agencies have used the facial recognition system since the beginning of this year, when 133 Galaxy tablets and smartphones were distributed to 25 law enforcement agencies around the region, according to documents obtained through a public records request by the \u003ca href=\"https://www.eff.org/\">Electronic Frontier Foundation\u003c/a>, a San Francisco nonprofit that studies surveillance and privacy issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Compared with the number of arrests throughout the San Diego region, which has about 3.2 million residents, the system is rolling out with relatively modest numbers. In the first 10 months of 2013, officers ran 5,629 queries through the database.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officials with the sheriff’s department and San Diego Association of Governments declined requests for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Law enforcement officials said the pilot program is a valuable tool to help them identify people who refuse to give their names or use fake identification. Immigration officials said they have used the system to help them when they encounter immigrants who don’t have authorization to be in the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Photographs are neutral – you can't say it's racist when a camera is taking a neutral picture of someone,” said Halverson, the Chula Vista officer. “It’s hitting on certain points of contact. It's doing a neutral analysis of a person.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The software works by capturing a freeze frame of a live video feed, which then focuses on the face and uses the distance between the eyes as a baseline. An algorithm then analyzes unique textures and patterns on the face, cross-referencing the freeze frame at the rate of a million comparisons per second against the police mug-shot database that also has been processed by the software.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\"> 'Photographs are neutral – you can't say it's racist when a camera is taking a neutral picture of someone.'\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Law enforcement officials said the facial recognition software has built-in privacy safeguards. After an image taken in the field is run through the system, it is discarded by the central database, they said. They say it does not create a database of photos of people who are stopped by police and questioned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, during field tests with Chula Vista police, images taken by field officers were stored within individual tablets. It’s up to officers to delete those photos on their own.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>This technology is not infallible\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officers who have used the system rave about its precision in identifying people. But facial recognition technology remains imperfect. Documents obtained by the Electronic Privacy Information Center, a Washington, D.C., nonprofit, show that the FBI’s facial recognition program could fail to identify the right person in 1 out of 5 encounters – potentially ensnaring innocent people in investigations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Development of the San Diego program goes as far back as 2007, according to documents obtained by the Electronic Frontier Foundation. That’s when the federal government’s National Institute of Justice awarded a $418,000 information-led policing grant to ARJIS.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2012, the San Diego Association of Governments selected \u003ca href=\"http://www.facefirst.com/\">FaceFirst LLC\u003c/a>, a privately held facial recognition firm in Camarillo, as the technology vendor.

Before taking her away, Officer Rob Halverson paused in the front yard, held a Samsung Galaxy tablet up to the woman’s face and snapped a photo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Halverson fiddled with the tablet with his index finger a few times, and – without needing to ask the woman’s name or check her identification – her mug shot from a previous arrest, address, criminal history and other personal information appeared on the screen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Halverson had run the woman's photograph through the \u003ca href=\"http://www.scribd.com/collections/4379389/San-Diego-Tactical-Identification-System\" target=\"_blank\">Tactical Identification System\u003c/a>, a new mobile facial recognition technology now in the hands of San Diego-area law enforcement. In an instant, the system matches images taken in the field with databases of about 348,000 San Diego County arrestees. The system itself has nearly 1.4 million booking photos because many people have multiple mug shots on record.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The little-known program could become the largest expansion of facial recognition technology by U.S. law enforcement. Amid an international debate over collecting huge amounts of data on the public and sharing the information, the pilot program is putting that metadata to use in the field in real time.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">'What we're seeing now is much more surveillance-oriented, and it's in the guise of preventative policing.'\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>The use of this technology was rolled out without any public hearings or notice. The secrecy of the program has alarmed privacy experts and raised questions about whether San Diego is the leading edge of an alarming future – one in which few people escape cataloging in a government database.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Twenty-five local, state and federal law enforcement agencies — including U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the Border Patrol, the San Diego County Sheriff's Department and San Diego State University police — participate in the system. The project is coordinated by the San Diego Association of Governments and relies on a vast data-sharing program called the Automated Regional Justice Information System, or ARJIS.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For some, the use of biometric technology by police represents a radical milestone in the militarization of American law enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For years, technology that was developed on the battlefield has been migrating into domestic law enforcement. Since 9/11, America's wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have sped up that transfer. Facial recognition technology, which has been widely used by the military, is the next frontier.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we're seeing now is much more surveillance-oriented, and it's in the guise of preventative policing,” said Kevin Keenan, former executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of San Diego & Imperial Counties. “It's really this aspiration of prevention and social control through the monitoring of everyone's every action and storage in perpetuity.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Is this practice legal?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The legality of law enforcement using facial recognition technology has not been tested in the courts. But a Privacy Impact Assessment, which the Automated Regional Justice Information System helped write, claims that photos of everyday people can be taken during \"traditional police-civilian encounters.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Diego-area law enforcement agencies have used the facial recognition system since the beginning of this year, when 133 Galaxy tablets and smartphones were distributed to 25 law enforcement agencies around the region, according to documents obtained through a public records request by the \u003ca href=\"https://www.eff.org/\">Electronic Frontier Foundation\u003c/a>, a San Francisco nonprofit that studies surveillance and privacy issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Compared with the number of arrests throughout the San Diego region, which has about 3.2 million residents, the system is rolling out with relatively modest numbers. In the first 10 months of 2013, officers ran 5,629 queries through the database.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officials with the sheriff’s department and San Diego Association of Governments declined requests for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Law enforcement officials said the pilot program is a valuable tool to help them identify people who refuse to give their names or use fake identification. Immigration officials said they have used the system to help them when they encounter immigrants who don’t have authorization to be in the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Photographs are neutral – you can't say it's racist when a camera is taking a neutral picture of someone,” said Halverson, the Chula Vista officer. “It’s hitting on certain points of contact. It's doing a neutral analysis of a person.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The software works by capturing a freeze frame of a live video feed, which then focuses on the face and uses the distance between the eyes as a baseline. An algorithm then analyzes unique textures and patterns on the face, cross-referencing the freeze frame at the rate of a million comparisons per second against the police mug-shot database that also has been processed by the software.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\"> 'Photographs are neutral – you can't say it's racist when a camera is taking a neutral picture of someone.'\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Law enforcement officials said the facial recognition software has built-in privacy safeguards. After an image taken in the field is run through the system, it is discarded by the central database, they said. They say it does not create a database of photos of people who are stopped by police and questioned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, during field tests with Chula Vista police, images taken by field officers were stored within individual tablets. It’s up to officers to delete those photos on their own.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>This technology is not infallible\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officers who have used the system rave about its precision in identifying people. But facial recognition technology remains imperfect. Documents obtained by the Electronic Privacy Information Center, a Washington, D.C., nonprofit, show that the FBI’s facial recognition program could fail to identify the right person in 1 out of 5 encounters – potentially ensnaring innocent people in investigations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Development of the San Diego program goes as far back as 2007, according to documents obtained by the Electronic Frontier Foundation. That’s when the federal government’s National Institute of Justice awarded a $418,000 information-led policing grant to ARJIS.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2012, the San Diego Association of Governments selected \u003ca href=\"http://www.facefirst.com/\">FaceFirst LLC\u003c/a>, a privately held facial recognition firm in Camarillo, as the technology vendor.

Physically aching and psychologically wrecked after hundreds of combat missions, he left the military a few years short of the retirement requirement with no pension and no job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Navy SEALs go through a highly demanding selection process. They are selected for physical, mental and psychological qualities that are exceptional. The fact that this hero, with these qualities, cannot find employment is shocking to me,\" said retired Gen. Anthony Zinni, former commander in chief of U.S. Central Command.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like 820,000 other veterans, the Shooter has a disability claim that is stuck in a seemingly interminable backlog at the VA, where the average wait time currently exceeds nine months, based on the \u003ca href=\"http://cironline.org/reports/map-where-veterans-backlog-worst-3792\">agency’s own data\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The speedier special track for Special Forces veterans appears to have eluded him, and so his neck, back and eye injuries remain uncompensated, removing a chance for a modicum of financial stability.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since a required medical exam in August, which he said he attended in full dress uniform including his gold SEAL Trident and combat awards, the Shooter’s only communication from the VA has been computer-generated form letters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is our sincere desire to decide your case promptly. However, as we have a great number of claims, action on yours may be delayed,” reads one letter dated Dec. 10. “If we need anything else from you, we will contact you, so there is no need to contact us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fact that even bin Laden’s killer has to wait for his benefits “just underscores how much you’re squandering the talents of the generation,” said Paul Rieckhoff, founder and CEO of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is a widespread frustration with the inability of veterans to get their benefits when they come home, and that includes SEALS,” he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The VA did not immediately return calls seeking comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Calls and emails to the Pentagon, Naval Special Warfare Command and Special Forces were not immediately returned either. In a statement to NBC News, the Navy declined to either confirm or dispute the Shooter’s account.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We take seriously the safety and security of our people as well as our responsibility to assist sailors making the transition to civilian life,” the statement reads. “Without more information about this particular case, it would be difficult to determine the degree to which our transition programs succeeded.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the Shooter’s account of the May 2011 mission, bin Laden stood in front of him, an AK-47 within reach. The terrorist, he said, pushed his youngest wife, Amal, in front of him in the pitch-black room. The Navy SEAL, wearing night-vision goggles, had to raise his gun higher than he expected before shooting three bullets into bin Laden’s forehead at close range.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He looked confused. And way taller than I was expecting,” the Shooter said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In that moment, the Shooter said he felt a deep inner conflict, about whether he had done the right thing by killing the world’s most wanted man.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I remember as I watched him breathe out the last part of air, I thought: Is this the best thing I’ve done, or the worst thing I’ve ever done?” he said. “His forehead was gruesome. It was split open in a shape of a V. I could see his brains spilling out over his face. The American public doesn’t want to know what that looks like.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Shooter’s account differs from other descriptions of bin Laden’s death and contradicts some statements by Matt Bissonnette, another member of Navy SEAL Team 6. In his book, “No Easy Day,” Bissonnette said he stood directly behind the SEAL team’s point man when the point man shot bin Laden.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the Shooter, the point man took a shot or two at bin Laden when bin Laden peeked around a curtain in the hallway a floor above them, but even after that the terrorist leader was still standing and moving. The point man was not in the room when bin Laden was killed, the Shooter said, because he had tackled two women into the hallway, believing they were wearing suicide vests.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was the most heroic thing I’ve ever seen,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Addressing the differences, CIR Executive Director Robert J. Rosenthal said: “The Shooter’s version of events is not the only one out there. But we believe his version of events is the most credible.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Shooter does not dispute Bissonnette’s account that Bissonnette entered the third-floor room after bin Laden already was fatally wounded, and along with another SEAL, continued to fire shots into the al-Qaida leader until his body was torn apart.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Together with Bronstein, the Shooter saw “Zero Dark Thirty,” the Oscar-nominated film by Kathryn Bigelow about the killing of bin Laden. While Bigelow “Hollywooded it up some,” most of the Shooter’s criticisms of the film were minor. The stairs inside bin Laden’s compound were not properly configured, he said, and none of the SEALs uttered the al-Qaida leader’s name.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The mission in the damn movie took way too long,” the Shooter said. But the portrayal of “Maya,” the CIA operative who identified the complex where bin Laden was hiding, was right on target, he said, adding, “They made her a tough woman, which she is.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Shooter said the CIA operative broke down in tears at the sight of bin Laden’s body back at the Afghanistan base and that he gave her his magazine, which still contained 27 shots, as a souvenir.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We looked down and I asked, ‘Is that your guy?’ ” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the raid in Abbottabad, Pakistan, the Shooter served one more deployment in Afghanistan and then left the military, a few years shy of his pension.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I wanted to see my children graduate and get married,” he said. He hoped to sleep through the night for the first time in years. “I was burned out,” he said. “And I realized that when I stopped getting an adrenaline rush from gunfights, it was time to go.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now out of the military, the Shooter has separated from his wife, but the two still live together for financial reasons. Since the raid in Abbottabad, the story says, “he has trained his children to hide in their bathtub at the first sign of a problem as the safest, most fortified place in their house.” He keeps a shotgun on the armoire and a knife on the dresser. The military provides no protection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He says his disability claim is less about the money it would provide than the right to free health care it would bring. While the VA now provides five years of virtually free health care to all honorably discharged Iraq and Afghanistan veterans, they can face bureaucratic nightmares later on if their conditions are not deemed service-connected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite 16 years serving his country, the Shooter says he has never accessed – or been informed of – unique services available to Special Forces veterans, including an effort called the Care Coalition launched by Special Operations Command in 2005.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Shooter also says he has seen no evidence that he has been routed through a special track for disability claims that the Department of Veterans Affairs set up for Special Forces veterans in 2009.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under this policy, if a veteran files a disability claim based on involvement in a secret mission, VA claims examiners are supposed to turn files over to a special liaison at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, Fla., where Special Operations Command is located.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The move was meant to speed processing of claims by Special Forces veterans, who had difficulty proving their injuries were caused by military service because of the classified nature of their work.\u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":null,"status":"publish","parent":0,"modified":1360616030,"stats":{"hasAudio":false,"hasVideo":true,"hasChartOrMap":false,"iframeSrcs":[],"hasGoogleForm":false,"hasGallery":false,"hasHearkenModule":false,"hasPolis":false,"paragraphCount":40,"wordCount":1580},"headData":{"title":"Navy Seal Who Killed Osama bin Laden Unemployed, Waiting For Disability Benefits | KQED","description":"By Aaron Glantz, Center for Investigative Reporting The Navy SEAL who says he killed Osama bin Laden is unemployed and waiting for disability benefits from the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Physically aching and psychologically wrecked after hundreds of combat missions, he left the military a few years short of the retirement requirement with no pension and no job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Navy SEALs go through a highly demanding selection process. They are selected for physical, mental and psychological qualities that are exceptional. The fact that this hero, with these qualities, cannot find employment is shocking to me,\" said retired Gen. Anthony Zinni, former commander in chief of U.S. Central Command.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like 820,000 other veterans, the Shooter has a disability claim that is stuck in a seemingly interminable backlog at the VA, where the average wait time currently exceeds nine months, based on the \u003ca href=\"http://cironline.org/reports/map-where-veterans-backlog-worst-3792\">agency’s own data\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The speedier special track for Special Forces veterans appears to have eluded him, and so his neck, back and eye injuries remain uncompensated, removing a chance for a modicum of financial stability.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since a required medical exam in August, which he said he attended in full dress uniform including his gold SEAL Trident and combat awards, the Shooter’s only communication from the VA has been computer-generated form letters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is our sincere desire to decide your case promptly. However, as we have a great number of claims, action on yours may be delayed,” reads one letter dated Dec. 10. “If we need anything else from you, we will contact you, so there is no need to contact us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fact that even bin Laden’s killer has to wait for his benefits “just underscores how much you’re squandering the talents of the generation,” said Paul Rieckhoff, founder and CEO of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is a widespread frustration with the inability of veterans to get their benefits when they come home, and that includes SEALS,” he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The VA did not immediately return calls seeking comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Calls and emails to the Pentagon, Naval Special Warfare Command and Special Forces were not immediately returned either. In a statement to NBC News, the Navy declined to either confirm or dispute the Shooter’s account.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We take seriously the safety and security of our people as well as our responsibility to assist sailors making the transition to civilian life,” the statement reads. “Without more information about this particular case, it would be difficult to determine the degree to which our transition programs succeeded.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the Shooter’s account of the May 2011 mission, bin Laden stood in front of him, an AK-47 within reach. The terrorist, he said, pushed his youngest wife, Amal, in front of him in the pitch-black room. The Navy SEAL, wearing night-vision goggles, had to raise his gun higher than he expected before shooting three bullets into bin Laden’s forehead at close range.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He looked confused. And way taller than I was expecting,” the Shooter said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In that moment, the Shooter said he felt a deep inner conflict, about whether he had done the right thing by killing the world’s most wanted man.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I remember as I watched him breathe out the last part of air, I thought: Is this the best thing I’ve done, or the worst thing I’ve ever done?” he said. “His forehead was gruesome. It was split open in a shape of a V. I could see his brains spilling out over his face. The American public doesn’t want to know what that looks like.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Shooter’s account differs from other descriptions of bin Laden’s death and contradicts some statements by Matt Bissonnette, another member of Navy SEAL Team 6. In his book, “No Easy Day,” Bissonnette said he stood directly behind the SEAL team’s point man when the point man shot bin Laden.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the Shooter, the point man took a shot or two at bin Laden when bin Laden peeked around a curtain in the hallway a floor above them, but even after that the terrorist leader was still standing and moving. The point man was not in the room when bin Laden was killed, the Shooter said, because he had tackled two women into the hallway, believing they were wearing suicide vests.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was the most heroic thing I’ve ever seen,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Addressing the differences, CIR Executive Director Robert J. Rosenthal said: “The Shooter’s version of events is not the only one out there. But we believe his version of events is the most credible.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Shooter does not dispute Bissonnette’s account that Bissonnette entered the third-floor room after bin Laden already was fatally wounded, and along with another SEAL, continued to fire shots into the al-Qaida leader until his body was torn apart.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Together with Bronstein, the Shooter saw “Zero Dark Thirty,” the Oscar-nominated film by Kathryn Bigelow about the killing of bin Laden. While Bigelow “Hollywooded it up some,” most of the Shooter’s criticisms of the film were minor. The stairs inside bin Laden’s compound were not properly configured, he said, and none of the SEALs uttered the al-Qaida leader’s name.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The mission in the damn movie took way too long,” the Shooter said. But the portrayal of “Maya,” the CIA operative who identified the complex where bin Laden was hiding, was right on target, he said, adding, “They made her a tough woman, which she is.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Shooter said the CIA operative broke down in tears at the sight of bin Laden’s body back at the Afghanistan base and that he gave her his magazine, which still contained 27 shots, as a souvenir.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We looked down and I asked, ‘Is that your guy?’ ” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the raid in Abbottabad, Pakistan, the Shooter served one more deployment in Afghanistan and then left the military, a few years shy of his pension.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I wanted to see my children graduate and get married,” he said. He hoped to sleep through the night for the first time in years. “I was burned out,” he said. “And I realized that when I stopped getting an adrenaline rush from gunfights, it was time to go.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now out of the military, the Shooter has separated from his wife, but the two still live together for financial reasons. Since the raid in Abbottabad, the story says, “he has trained his children to hide in their bathtub at the first sign of a problem as the safest, most fortified place in their house.” He keeps a shotgun on the armoire and a knife on the dresser. The military provides no protection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He says his disability claim is less about the money it would provide than the right to free health care it would bring. While the VA now provides five years of virtually free health care to all honorably discharged Iraq and Afghanistan veterans, they can face bureaucratic nightmares later on if their conditions are not deemed service-connected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite 16 years serving his country, the Shooter says he has never accessed – or been informed of – unique services available to Special Forces veterans, including an effort called the Care Coalition launched by Special Operations Command in 2005.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Shooter also says he has seen no evidence that he has been routed through a special track for disability claims that the Department of Veterans Affairs set up for Special Forces veterans in 2009.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under this policy, if a veteran files a disability claim based on involvement in a secret mission, VA claims examiners are supposed to turn files over to a special liaison at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, Fla., where Special Operations Command is located.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The move was meant to speed processing of claims by Special Forces veterans, who had difficulty proving their injuries were caused by military service because of the classified nature of their work.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/news/88709/phil-bronstein-profiles-navy-seal-who-killed-bin-laden","authors":["1367"],"programs":["news_6944"],"tags":["news_18544","news_740","news_205","news_80","news_3871","news_1324","news_3872"],"label":"news_6944"},"news_33488":{"type":"posts","id":"news_33488","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"news","id":"33488","score":null,"sort":[1310155916000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"video-watch-republic-of-cannabis-about-calif-pot-growing-boom-and-federal-pushback","title":"Video: Watch \"Republic of Cannabis,\" About Calif.
