But Oakland received none of that funding because \u003ca href=\"https://www.ktvu.com/news/emails-texts-help-explain-how-oakland-missed-out-on-millions-to-fight-retail-theft\">it missed the application deadline,\u003c/a> a blunder that Thao later said she, as mayor, took “full responsibility for.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The governor brought that up one, two, three times,” said Robert Harris of the Oakland NAACP, who was also at the January meeting. “He talked about the missed deadline, and then about 10 minutes later, he said the same thing over, ‘We’ve made that available to you, and you didn’t file.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Facing criticism from conservatives over his handling of crime in the state, Newsom has recently toughened his stance on the issue, \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2024/01/09/property-crime-framework/\">last month calling for new legislation \u003c/a>to expand criminal penalties for property crimes — even as he has so far \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/news/2024/01/09/newsoms-property-crime-package-sidesteps-prop-47-00134448#:~:text=The%20governor%20is%20asking%20for,a%20contentious%20voter%2Dpassed%20initiative.\">sidestepped demands to reform Proposition 47\u003c/a>, the 2014 measure that reduced certain drug and theft crimes from felonies to misdemeanors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The governor’s office last year also \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/eastbay/article/california-approves-oakland-bid-for-chp-officers-18274937.php\">sent six CHP officers\u003c/a> and a sergeant to Oakland to help with traffic enforcement and extended a $1.2 million loan to the city to install automated license-plate readers, leading to the arrest of 100 suspected criminals and the recovery of 193 stolen vehicles, it said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Newsom’s Tuesday statement, Thao welcomed the additional help from the state.

The hard thing is that it probably happens so quickly and unexpectedly, that it's probably hard to anticipate that it's going to happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One thing that you can do, too, is send yourself an email with all the details you can remember, because the email will be time and date stamped. That creates a contemporaneous record that then is admissible later in a legal proceeding, because you wrote it at the time that it occurred. Lots of people have phones, so it's very easy to send yourself an email and document everything with as many details as you can remember about what happened. So if you're not ready to report right away, that's one thing you could do.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Can you document the incident or seek immediate care without police involvement?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you go to a rape crisis center — not necessarily because you want to report, but because you want to receive services — and you sit down with a counselor and you go through what happened, that's going to be documented in the therapeutic records.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Camille Cooper, the vice president of public policy at RAINN\"]'I think that we need to trust that even if there's no proof, trust the voice that says, 'Something's not right here.''[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The problem with that is everything in there is part of the record, and if you're trying to have a very confidential open, therapeutic session, then there might be things in there that you also do not want to come out later in a legal proceeding (if you choose to report to law enforcement).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can seek medical care for an assault if you have injuries, and/or if you want prophylactics or STD prophylactics.

Some people listen to that voice, they trust that voice. And some people go and second guess it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most people don't want to be afraid. They don't want to come across as being paranoid or doing things out of fear. So that voice is actually kind of trained in the wrong way in our brains. A lot of times you'll get a tightness in your stomach — or you’ll get like a sense that something is not right here — and I think that we need to trust that even if there's no proof, trust the voice that says, “Something's not right here.

You can do what’s called an “anonymous sexual assault exam,” and that doesn't go to the police, but it stays within the hospital records so that if you want to report at a later time, then you can activate that. But the record is there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's important for survivors to know they can seek medical care, go to a hospital and they can even get a rape kit exam done. They can say, “I want this to be anonymous,” and it will not get reported to the police.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Here is \u003ca href=\"http://www.bawar.org/get-help-for-yourself/\">more information\u003c/a> from Bay Area Women Against Rape about a survivor's choice on whether or not to report to police.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What if you’ve experienced sexual harassment or assault by a police officer, but you’re doubting or rationalizing the situation?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's really important for women to trust their intuition.
