California is one of only four states in the country without such power. As a result, a number of high-profile cases have been reported over the years where an officer involved in a questionable shooting was allowed to remain on the streets, only to kill again. Officers also have been fired for wrongdoing in one department, then quietly moved on to another agency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“California is able to revoke the certification or license of bad doctors, bad lawyers, even bad barbers and cosmetologists — you can even recall an elected official — but is unable to decertify police officers who have broken the law and violated public trust,” state Sen. Steven Bradford said at a committee hearing earlier this year. Bradford, a Gardena Democrat who chairs the public safety committee and lives near where the shooting took place, introduced the bill along with state Senate President Pro Tem Toni Atkins.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the Gardena shooting, local law enforcement — as it typically does in such cases — investigated the shooting. The \u003ca href=\"https://da.lacounty.gov/sites/default/files/pdf/JSID-OIS-05-2019-Ross.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">district attorney’s office cleared Robbins\u003c/a> of wrongdoing because it said the officer believed the man running away from him was armed and might reasonably have feared for his life\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But criminal justice reform advocates say for too long police accountability has been solely in the hands of local agencies — police policing themselves. They question if the man Robbins shot in the back was truly a threat running away and point out it was the officer’s fourth shooting, suggesting he was too quick to use deadly force. [pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"State Sen. Steven Bradford\"]'This nation has cried out — especially in Black and brown communities — for change. [/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bradford’s bill is the latest effort to break through the wall of legal protections built up over the years that critics say shield California law enforcement officers from accountability. CalMatters was only able to obtain internal police reports and videos regarding the Gardena shooting because a 2018 law for the first time \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180SB1421\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">opened certain law enforcement records\u003c/a>, including files pertaining to use of deadly force and some misconduct.

A nine-member advisory board would consider the evidence and recommend whether to strip an officer of certification. The majority of that board would be civilians without policing experience, including four members who would be experts on “police accountability” and two who either personally suffered from an officer’s use of force or lost a loved one to such an incident. The commission would have final say on decertification, but language in the bill suggests they’d be expected to adopt the advisory board’s recommendations when reasonably supported by evidence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for what constitutes wrongdoing that could cost an officer their career, it’s unclear. The bill includes categories such as sexual assault and dishonesty but would leave it to the commission to develop a full definition of “serious misconduct” that also includes broader areas such as “abuse of power” and “physical abuse.” [aside tag=\"police, violence\" label=\"More Related Stories\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We all want to see a fair and transparent decertification system put in place that permanently removes officers for serious misconduct, but even with recent amendments (the bill) fails to create a balanced and even process,” said Abdul Pridgen, president of the California Police Chiefs Association, in an email to CalMatters. “However, we remain committed to continuing our work with the Governor’s office, legislative leaders, and Senator Bradford to address our remaining concerns and establish a decertification process we can all have faith in.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among the sticking points for the association is the makeup of the advisory board, the degree to which that board’s recommendations are binding and what will happen if a local department exonerates an officer but the state commission finds wrongdoing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billHistoryClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200SB731\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">decertification bill\u003c/a> failed \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/justice/2020/09/california-lawmakers-failed-to-enact-police-reform/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">last session\u003c/a>.

Bradford’s spokesperson said those changes were made after working with the governor’s office and key lawmakers. The original bill gave the advisory board the power to direct the commission to investigate certain officers. The new version, however, simply says the board can recommend investigations.

California is one of only four states in the country without such power. As a result, a number of high-profile cases have been reported over the years where an officer involved in a questionable shooting was allowed to remain on the streets, only to kill again. Officers also have been fired for wrongdoing in one department, then quietly moved on to another agency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“California is able to revoke the certification or license of bad doctors, bad lawyers, even bad barbers and cosmetologists — you can even recall an elected official — but is unable to decertify police officers who have broken the law and violated public trust,” state Sen. Steven Bradford said at a committee hearing earlier this year. Bradford, a Gardena Democrat who chairs the public safety committee and lives near where the shooting took place, introduced the bill along with state Senate President Pro Tem Toni Atkins.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the Gardena shooting, local law enforcement — as it typically does in such cases — investigated the shooting.
