Jeffrey Fink RE: January 2025 Use of Force Review DATE: February 17, 2025 The Iowa City Police Department policy requires an employee to complete a written report for any reportable use of force. Reportable use of force is defined in the Department's policy 300, which is titled Use of Force and available for public viewing on the department's website. This policy provides employees with guidelines on the use of deadly and non -deadly force. Upon receipt of the report, the supervisor is responsible for completing an administrative critique of the force. This process includes interviews with involved employees, body worn and in -car camera review, review of any additional available video, and review of written reports. The employee's use of force report and the supervisor's critique is then forwarded to the Captain of Field Operations and the Chief of Police for final review and critique. On a monthly basis, the previous month's use of force reports and supervisor critiques are reviewed by an administrative review committee consisting of a minimum of three sworn personnel. This Use of Force Committee consists of two supervisors as designated by the Chief of Police and one officer, typically a certified use of force instructor. The Use of Force Review Committee met on February 17, 2025. It was composed of Lt. Fink, Sgt. Rich, and Officer T. LaKose. For the review of submitted reports in January 2025, the Review Committee documented the following: ■ 34 individual officers were involved in 17 separate incidents requiring use of force. • There were no documented cases of an officer exercising his/her duty to intervene and the review of the incidents did not indicate that an officer failed their duty to intervene. • Out of the 17 use of force incidents, 13 involved force being used against 15 different people. There were 4 animals euthanized by officers. • Out of the 34 officers involved in the 15 uses of force against people, 1 subject sustained a superficial injury. • No violations of policy were noted during this review period. • Out of the 15 uses of force against people, arrests were made 11 times (73.3%). • Mental health was identified by officers as being a factor in 2 of the 13 use of force incidents involving persons (15.4%). • Drugs and/or alcohol was identified by officers as being a factor in 7 of the 13 use of force incidents involving persons (53.8%). ■ Out of the 15 times force was used on persons, 7 were identified as white males (46.7%), 4 were identified as black males (26.7%), 1 was identified as a as a Latino male (6.7%), 1 was identified as an Asian male (6.7%), 1 was identified as a white female, and 1 was identified as a black female (6.7%). • Out of the 13 uses of force incidents involving people, the average number of officers involved in the force was 2.62. • In total during this time, the ICPD had 4,728 calls for service with 13 calls for service resulting in force being used on persons (.27%). The highest level of force in each incident is reflected below along with the year-to-date: Force Used January 2025 Occurrences 2025 Year -to -Date Hands-on 4 4 Taser Display 1 1 Taser Discharge 0 0 OC Spray Deployment 0 0 Firearm(s) Display 10 10 Firearms Discharge 0 0 ASP Striking 0 0 Officer Striking/KickingStriking/Kicking 0 0 Animals Euthanized by Officer 4 4 Special Response Team Callouts 1 1 Vehicle Pursuits 1 0 1 Officer Injuries 0 1 0 Suspect Injuries 1 Reports to U.S. DOJ 0 Total Use of Force incidents to date equal 17.

The subject then faced the officer and pushed them with two extended arms to their chest. The subject then grabbed ahold of the officer's vest, so the officer grabbed his jacket with both hands and began to push him out to the front door of the funeral home.

The officer observed the subject enter a vehicle and sit in the driver's seat facing south. The officer pulled the squad car in behind the subject's vehicle about 6 feet away facing west, and activated rear flashers. The officer approached the subject's driver's side window and tried to speak to him. The officer was about 2 feet from his door. The subject rolled down the window and briefly spoke with the officer, who told him that he had missed a court date and had a failure to appear warrant. The officer tried to speak slowly and calmly, telling him that he would need to appear before a judge. He rolled up his window and drove forward onto the grass. He stopped and backed in an apparent attempt to turn around. The officer moved toward their squad car and had to run to avoid getting hit by the rear of the subject's backing vehicle. The officer returned to the squad car and activated the lights and siren. The subject was still trying to turn around by making several forward and backward motions. While doing this his vehicle backed into the adjacent unoccupied parked vehicle to the left. The officer drew their sidearm and pointed it at him while giving him verbal commands to stop and put his hands up. He then continued moving his vehicle back and forth until he was perpendicular to the parking spot. The officer attempted to open the front passenger door but it was locked. The subject pulled forward, and the officer retreated to the driver's side door of the squad car to gain more distance from his vehicle, approximately 10 feet. The subject then decided to drive over the grass/curb on the west side of the parking lot and pulled out onto the road. He turned right (north) and accelerated. The officer returned their handgun to the holster and pulled onto the road with top lights and sirens on and followed him for several seconds. He appeared to be accelerating, and the officer turned off their top lights and siren. The officer followed him from a distance for a short time with lights off and observed him turn left (west) onto another street. He appeared to be passing vehicles in a no -passing zone and driving excessively fast. A supervisor told the officer to terminate the pursuit. Another officer eventually located the subject in his car and approached him, pulling their pistol out of its holster and pointing it to the ground about 20 feet from him. The officer holstered their gun and drew their Taser when after seeing the subject not holding a knife. The officer told the subject multiple times to get on the ground or he would be tased. The subject ignored those orders and proceeded to walk towards the front door of his house. When the officer was about 10 feet away from the subject, the officer pointed their Taser at the subject, who stopped and turned. The officer noticed the subject was in a fighting stance, with one foot staggered behind the other with his left hand raised as if to throw a punch. The subject walked toward the officer with his left hand raised, and his face bracing for a physical altercation. The officer fired one set of probes at the subject, who continued to charge at the officer, so the officer fired another set of probes. The subject yelled as if the taser was effective, however, he continued toward the officer, swinging his left and right fists. The officer backed up to avoid his attacks until he was close enough, about 2 feet from the officer, who tackled the subject to the ground. The officer threw the Taser away from the vicinity, wrapped both hands around him, and pulled him to the ground. While on the ground the subject was on his side, grabbing at the officer's equipment and trying to punch the officer, who struck him twice in the head with a fist 2 times, while continuing to give orders to stop resisting. The officer eventually was able to fully mount with both legs straddling his body while he was on his back. The officer gained control of both of the subject's arms as they were trying to punch the officer. The subject was still yelling and refusing orders to stop resisting, relax, and put his hands behind his back. The officer held his hands on the ground next to his head and waited until he stopped resisting. The subject eventually calmed down. While still straddling the subject while he was on his back, the officer placed a handcuff on his left wrist. The officer asked him to roll over and he did. The officer then secured the handcuffs on his right wrist. The subject was transported to 'ail.

The officer located the vehicle stopped at a stop sign about to enter a cross -street on which the officer was driving. Rather than drive past the vehicle and turn around, giving the driver a chance to flee, the officer stopped face-to-face with the vehicle and activated emergency lights. Because the vehicle was reported stolen and the intent and armed status of the occupants was unknown, the officer conducted a high -risk traffic stop. The officer pointed their sidearm at the two occupants and held them until Officers 2 and 3 arrived to assist. All three officers displayed their duty pistols during the high risk stop. The Officer 1 called the occupants out one at a time and they were taken into custody without incident. Officer 2 secured the driver in a patrol car and Officer 3 secured the passenger in another patrol car. Officers 2 and 3 cleared the car and found no other occupants.

Officers had observed the subject on video enter the location, but they had not seen him leave. Officer 1 was armed with the shotgun from a squad car. The goal was to search the premises for the subject, starting by clearing the ground floor. One individual was found sitting at a desk in the back area covered up with heavy clothing. Officer 2 was positioned in an offset position where the subject could be observed through an opening in the wall; Officer 2 displayed his pistol in that subject's direction as he was given commands to raise his hands and come forth. Officer 3 approached and was quickly able to determine the subject was not the subject. That subject was asked to leave and was not identified. After clearing the ground floor, all officers amassed at the stairwell to the second floor making plans to go upstairs. Officers 3, 4, and 5 held their pistols in a low -ready position as they moved toward the subject, who was quickly observed by Officer 4 seated at a computer terminal to the east of the stairwell. The subject placed his hands behind his back when told to do so and Officer 3 handcuffed him. Officer 1 was near the back of the group and did not point the shotgun at anyone at any time in this incident.

Jeffrey Fink RE: February 2025 Use of Force Review DATE: March 27, 2025 The Iowa City Police Department policy requires an employee to complete a written report for any reportable use of force. Reportable use of force is defined in the Department's policy 300, which is titled Use of Force and available for public viewing on the department's website.

Upon receipt of the report, the supervisor is responsible for completing an administrative critique of the force. This process includes interviews with involved employees, body worn and in -car camera review, review of any additional available video, and review of written reports. The employee's use of force report and the supervisor's critique is then forwarded to the Captain of Field Operations and the Chief of Police for final review and critique. On a monthly basis, the previous month's use of force reports and supervisor critiques are reviewed by an administrative review committee consisting of a minimum of three sworn personnel. This Use of Force Committee consists of two supervisors as designated by the Chief of Police and one officer, typically a certified use of force instructor. The Use of Force Review Committee met on March 27, 2025. It was composed of Lt. Fink, Sgt. Rich, and Officer Arcenas. For the review of submitted reports in February 2025, the Review Committee documented the following: • 35 individual officers were involved in 17 separate incidents requiring use of force. • There were no documented cases of an officer exercising his/her duty to intervene and the review of the incidents did not indicate that an officer failed their duty to intervene. • Out of the 17 use of force incidents, 14 involved force being used against 15 different people. There were 3 animals euthanized by officers. ■ Out of the 35 officers involved in the 15 uses of force against people, 1 subject sustained a superficial injury. • No violations of policy were noted during this review period. Out of the 15 uses of force against people, arrests were made 14 times (93.3%). Mental health was identified by officers as being a factor in 1 of the 14 use of force incidents involving persons (7.1 %). • Drugs and/or alcohol was identified by officers as being a factor in 10 of the 14 use of force incidents involving persons (71.4%).

Jeffrey Fink RE: March 2025 Use of Force Review DATE: April 18, 2025 The Iowa City Police Department policy requires an employee to complete a written report for any reportable use of force. Reportable use of force is defined in the Department's policy 300, which is titled Use of Force and available for public viewing on the department's website. This policy provides employees with guidelines on the use of deadly and non -deadly force. Upon receipt of the report, the supervisor is responsible for completing an administrative critique of the force. This process includes interviews with involved employees, body worn and in -car camera review, review of any additional available video, and review of written reports. The employee's use of force report and the supervisor's critique is then forwarded to the Captain of Field Operations and the Chief of Police for final review and critique. On a monthly basis, the previous month's use of force reports and supervisor critiques are reviewed by an administrative review committee consisting of a minimum of three sworn personnel. This Use of Force Committee consists of two supervisors as designated by the Chief of Police and one officer, typically a certified use of force instructor. The Use of Force Review Committee met on April 18, 2025. It was composed of Lt. Fink, Sgt. Alke, and Officer LaKose. For the review of submitted reports in March 2025, the Review Committee documented the following: • 52 individual officers were involved in 35 separate incidents requiring use of force. • There were no documented cases of an officer exercising his/her duty to intervene and the review of the incidents did not indicate that an officer failed their duty to intervene. • Out of the 35 use of force incidents, 27 involved force being used against 29 different people. There were 8 animals euthanized by officers. • Out of the 44 officers involved in the 29 uses of force against people, 1 subject sustained a superficial injury, and two officers sustained serious injuries. • No violations of policy were noted during this review period. • Out of the 29 uses of force against people, arrests were made 25 times (86.2%). • Mental health was identified by officers as being a factor in 8 of the 27 use of force incidents involving persons (29.6%). • Drugs and/or alcohol was identified by officers as being a factor in 16 of the 27 use of force incidents involving persons (59.3%). • Out of the 29 times force was used on persons, 10 were identified as white males (34.5%), 13 were identified as black males (44.8%), 2 were identified as a as Latino males (6.9%), 3 were identified as white females (10.3%), and 1 was identified as Other male (3.4%). • Out of the 27 uses of force incidents involving people, the average number of officers involved in the force was 1.93. • In total during this time, the ICPD had 5,195 calls for service with 27 calls for service resulting in force being used on persons (.52%).

The subject repeatedly encroached on the arrest, sticking his phone in the faces of various officers and demanding their badge numbers. This required officers to split their attention between the arresting officer and the arrestee, and the subject. The subject was agitated and encroaching on the lawful arrest. His obstruction caused the cover officers to have to focus their attention on the subject instead of on the arresting officer and the arrestee. The officer stepped toward the subject from behind, reached to his front, and pulled him away from the arrest and held him up against the brick wall east of the bar's entrance. The officer held the subject against the wall by placing both hands on his upper torso. The officer repeatedly told the subject he was not going to get involved in the arrest. The officer simply held the subject against the wall hoping that he would become less agitated, so that the officer could release him without arrest, but he maintained his boisterous, argumentative posturing. The officer told the subject he was under arrest and another officer secured him in handcuffs without incident, force, or resistance.

When he started to resist walking and kept trying to turn back into officers, Officer 1 "goosenecked" his left wrist in an attempt to use pain compliance to get him under control. While officers were patting the subject down against the hood of a patrol car, he started resisting officers and was turning into them. He started kicking officers as they were behind and next to him, and he ignored their orders to stop. Standing at his right side and slightly behind him, Officer 1 laced an arm under his right in order to more easily control him. Officer 1 used that underhook to bend him forward so that he couldn't turn against the officers. When the subject continued to struggle and kick at the officers, Officer 1 told Officer 2 to deploy pepper spray, and Officer 1 ducked behind the subject's back while he was pepper sprayed. When the subject continued to kick and resist, Officer 1 used the underhook to pull him down to the ground.

The officer may, with or without a warrant, transport, or cause the person to be transported, to the nearest hospital or available facility licensed to care for persons with mental illness (Iowa Code § 229.22). 410.3.1 VOLUNTARY EVALUATION If an officer encounters an individual who may qualify for an involuntary commitment, the officer may inquire as to whether the person desires to be voluntarily evaluated at an appropriate facility. If the person so desires, the officer should: (a) Transport the person to an appropriate facility that is able to conduct the evaluation and admit the person. (b) Document the circumstances surrounding the individual's desire to pursue voluntary evaluation and/or admission. If at any point the person changes their mind regarding voluntary evaluation, the officers should proceed with the involuntary commitment, if appropriate. 410.4 CONSIDERATIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES Any officer handling a call involving a person who may qualify for detention for the purpose of an involuntary commitment should consider, as time and circumstances reasonably permit: (a) Available information that might assist in determining the possible cause and nature of the person's action or stated intentions. (b) Conflict resolution and de-escalation techniques (c) Community or other resources that may be readily available to assist with mental health issues. While these steps are encouraged, nothing in this section is intended to dissuade officers from taking reasonable action to ensure the safety of the officers and others. Involuntary commitments should be considered over arrest for people who have mental health issues and are suspected of committing minor crimes or creating other public safety issues.

If the individual is not seeking treatment voluntarily, the officer should remain present to provide clarification of the grounds for detention. Absent exigent circumstances, the transporting officer should not assist facility staff with the admission process, including restraint of the individual. However, if the individual is transported and delivered while restrained, the officer may assist with transferring the individual to facility restraints and will be available to assist during the admission process, if requested. Under normal circumstances, officers will not apply facility -ordered restraints. 410.7 DOCUMENTATION The officer shall describe the circumstances supporting the involuntary commitment action to the examining physician, examining physician assistant or examining psychiatric advanced registered nurse practitioner either in person or by a written report (Iowa Code § 229.22). 410.8 CRIMINAL OFFENSES Officers investigating an individual who is suspected of committing a minor criminal offense and who is being taken into custody through an involuntary commitment should exercise their discretion, as appropriate, in deciding whether to issue a citation or a warning. In the officer's judgment, the individual may instead be transported to the appropriate mental health facility. The officer should consider the seriousness of the offense, the treatment options available, the ability of this department to regain custody of the individual, department resources (e.g., posting a guard) and other relevant factors in making this decision. 410.8.1 NOTIFICATION REQUEST PRIOR TO DISCHARGE Where an arrest warrant has been issued, or charges are pending against the individual, officers should ensure that (Iowa Code § 229.11; Iowa Code § 229.22): (a) Any court order issued regarding the detention of an individual provides an order that notification be made to the Iowa City Police Department about the discharge prior to the discharge from a facility or hospital.

(Ord. 15-4627, 6-16-2015) 8-8-2: INTENT, GOALS AND GUIDING PRINCIPLES: A. Investigations into claims of inappropriate conduct by sworn police officers will be conducted in a manner which is fair, thorough, and accurate. B. An annual reporting system regarding complaints against sworn police officers will be established to give the city council sufficient information to assess the overall performance of the Iowa City police department in these matters. (Ord. 13-4555, 9-17-2013) C. Persons may make a formal written complaint to either the board or the Iowa City police department. In accordance with this chapter the board shall process only those complaints filed with the board but will receive reports from the police chief briefly describing the nature of the allegations made in formal written complaints filed with the police department and the disposition of the same. (Ord. 13-4555, 9-17-2013; amd. Ord. 15-4627, 6-16-2015) D. The board will: https://export.amlegal.com/api/export-requests/e7462bcb-522e-4c01-8280-b50d77d85d63/download/ 1 /9 6/10/25, 4:23 PM export. am legal. com/api/export-requests/e7462bcb-522e-4c01-8280-b50d77d85d63/download/ 1. Oversee a monitoring system for tracking receipt of formal complaints lodged against sworn police officers with either the board or the Iowa City police department. 2. Provide oversight of police investigations through review of such investigations. 3. Provide the opportunity for a hearing to the police officer if the board's findings on the complaint to the board are critical of the police officer, as required by constitutional law, and give the police officer the opportunity to present testimony and evidence. 4. Issue a final public report to the city council on each complaint to the board which sets forth factual findings and a written conclusion which explains why and the extent to which the complaint is either "sustained" or "not sustained". E. The board shall have no authority over police disciplinary matters because only the police chief or city manager may impose discipline under Iowa law. F. No findings in the board's report shall be used in any other legal proceeding. G. The board shall only review the conduct of sworn Iowa City police officers and shall only act in a civil, not criminal, capacity. The board is not intended to be a court of law, a tort claim process or other litigation process. No action of the board shall be deemed to diminish or limit the right of any person to file a claim or a lawsuit against the city. H. A complaint to the board maybe filed by any person with personal knowledge of an incident. "Personal knowledge" means the complainant was directly involved in the incident or witnessed the incident. If the person with personal knowledge is underage or otherwise unable to complete a complaint form, the complaint may be filed by such person's designated representative. The City Manager, the Police Chief, the City Council, or the board may file a complaint to the board based upon a reasonable belief that police misconduct has occurred regardless of personal knowledge. I. In order to assure that people feel confident in the complaint process, nonpolice City staff shall be available at a public location other than the Police Department to receive complaints, although complaints may also be filed at the Police Department. J. The board shall not interfere with or diminish the legal rights of sworn police officers, including those rights protected under the union contract, Civil Service Commission, and State and Federal law. Similarly, the board shall respect the rights of privacy and freedom from defamation shared by complainants and witnesses, as well as those same rights enjoyed by police officers under the law. K. The City Council finds that internal accountability within the Police Department is a valid legislative purpose, and one method of accomplishing such internal accountability is to have the police do their own investigations into claims of inappropriate police conduct. If a complaint is asserted against the Police Chief, the City Manager will investigate the claim and report to the board and the City Council. (Ord. 13-4555, 9-17-2013) L. Investigation of all formal complaints to the board is a mandatory duty of the Police Chief, and a report of each complaint investigation shall be given to the board. Such reports to the board shall include the factual findings of the Police Chief as well as a written conclusion explaining why and the extent to which a complaint is either "sustained" or "not sustained". However, such reports shall not include discipline or other personnel matters. If the Police Chief and the City Manager find the police officer's actions constitute misconduct and discipline is imposed by the Police Chief or City Manager, the internal affairs investigation may become a public record to be released by the City Attorney to the extent provided by law, in which case the City Attorney shall forward a copy of such internal affairs investigation report to the board. (Ord. 13-4555, 9-17-2013; amd. Ord. 19-4783, 3-12-2019) M. In order to assure external accountability of the actions of the Police Department, the Police Chief shall provide the board with a report at least quarterly of all formal complaints filed directly with the Police Department, which report shall state the date and location of the incident and a brief https://export.amlegal. com/api/export-requests/e7462bcb-522e-4c01-8280-b50d77d85d63/download/ 2/9 6/10/25, 4:23 PM export.amlegaI.com/api/export-requests/e7462bcb-522e-4cO1-8280-b50d77d85d63/download/ description of the nature of the allegation and the disposition of the complaint. (Ord. 13-4555, 9-17- 2013) N. External accountability will further be provided by the board's maintenance of a central registry of all formal complaints. In addition to the central registry, the board shall provide an annual report to the City Council, which report shall be public and shall set forth the general types and numbers of complaints, how they were resolved, whether the board's decision differed from that of the Police Chief and/or City Manager, demographic information, and recommendations as to how the Police Department may improve its community relations or be more responsive to community needs. (Ord. 13-4555, 9-17-2013; amd. Ord. 19-4783, 3-12-2019) O. The board shall hold at least one community forum each year for the purpose of hearing views on the policies, practices and procedures of the Iowa City Police Department, review police practices, procedures, and written policies as those practices and procedures relate to the Police Department's performance as a whole, and report their recommendations, if any, to the City Council, City Manager and Police Chief. (Ord. 13-4555, 9-17-2013; amd. Ord. 15-4627, 6-16-2015) 8-8-3: DEFINITION OF COMPLAINT; COMPLAINT PROCESS IN GENERAL: A. A "complaint to the board" is an allegation of misconduct lodged against a sworn police officer ("police officer" or "officer") employed by the Iowa City Police Department, where the complained of activity occurred while the officer was acting in the capacity of a sworn police officer. B. Any person with personal knowledge of the alleged police misconduct may file a complaint with the board. In order to have "personal knowledge", the complainant must have been directly involved in the incident or witnessed the incident. A person who observes an incident solely on social media, television, or other media outlets does not have the requisite "personal knowledge" needed to authorize such person to file a complaint. If the person with personal knowledge is underage or otherwise unable to complete a complaint form, the complaint may be filed by such person's designated representative. The City Manager, the Police Chief, the City Council or the board itself may file a complaint based on a reasonable belief that police misconduct has occurred regardless of personal knowledge. The person or official filing the complaint may hereafter be referred to as the "complainant". C. All complaints to the board shall be in writing and on forms provided by the board. Complaint forms shall be available to the public in easily accessible locations, and nonpolice staff shall be available to receive the complaint forms. Assistance may be available to complete the form as designated by the board. D. All complaints to the board must be filed with the City Clerk within one hundred eighty (180) days of the alleged misconduct. E. Only those complaints to the board which do not involve the conduct of an Iowa City sworn police officer or are not filed within one hundred eighty (180) days of the alleged misconduct may be subject to summary dismissal by the board.

Prior to investigation of any board complaint, the Police Chief shall first give Garrity and Gardner advice to all police officers implicated in the complaint, as required by constitutional law. This means the officer cannot be required to waive the officer's constitutional right against self- incrimination.

A review of the City Manager's involvement under this provision will be done in two (2) years to ensure the practice is producing its intended purpose. 5. Investigators will prepare and forward a report of their investigation to the Police Chief, and shall make detailed findings of fact as to the allegations in the complaint, and shall also set forth a written conclusion which explains why and the extent to which the complaint is either "sustained" or "not sustained". 6.

The board shall review all Police Chiefs reports and City Manager's reports concerning complaints.

Any time after the board selects a level of review, the board may, on a simple majority vote, select any other or additional level of review. 2. The board shall apply a "reasonable basis" standard of review when reviewing the Police Chiefs or City Manager's report. This requires the board to give deference to the Police Chiefs or City Manager's report because of the Police Chiefs and City Manager's respective professional expertise. https://export.amleg aI.com/api/export-requests/e7462bcb-522e-4c01-8280-b50d77d85d63/dawn load/ 519 6/10/25, 4:23 PM export. am legal.com/api/export-requests/e7462bcb-522e-4c01-8280-b50d77d85d63/download/ The board may issue a report that disagrees with the decision set forth in the Police Chiefs or City Manager's report only if: a. The Police Chiefs or City Manager's findings and/or conclusions are not supported by substantial evidence; b. The Police Chiefs or City Manager's findings and/or conclusions are unreasonable, arbitrary or capricious; or c. The Police Chiefs or City Manager's findings and/or conclusions are contrary to a Police Department policy or practice, or any Federal, State, or local law. 3. If, in accordance with said standard, the board affirms the decision of the Police Chief or City Manager with respect to the allegations of misconduct but nonetheless has concern about the officer's conduct or police practices, policies, or procedures, it may so comment in its report to the City Council. If such comments are critical of the officer's conduct the board shall provide the officer a name clearing hearing pursuant to subsection B7 of this section. When collecting and reviewing additional evidence, the board shall rely on evidence which reasonably prudent persons are accustomed to rely upon in the conduct of their serious affairs. 4. If the board disagrees with the decision of the Police Chief or City Manager with respect to the allegations of misconduct, the board and the Police Chief and/or City Manager shall meet in closed session to discuss their disagreement about the complaint. If the board requests the City Manager's presence at its meeting with the Police Chief, the City Manager will also attend. Such meeting shall take place prior to the issuance of the board's public report to the City Council. Within seven (7) days after such meeting, the Police Chief or City Manager may, in the Police Chiefs or City Manager's discretion, issue an amended investigative report for the board's consideration. 5. Any time prior to the issuance of the board's public report to the City Council, any member of the board may make a motion to vote again on whether to sustain or not sustain the complaint. 6. At the conclusion of the board's review, the board shall issue a public report to the City Council concerning the complaint investigation. Such public report shall include detailed findings of fact concerning the complaint, together with a clearly articulated conclusion which explains why and the extent to which the complaint is "sustained" or "not sustained". If the complaint is "not sustained", the public report shall not include the names of the complainant(s) or the police officer(s). If the complaint is "sustained" the board may include the names of the complainant(s) and/or the police officer(s) if it determines that the public interest in such disclosure outweighs the public harm and privacy interests of the complainant(s) and/or police officer(s). Said determination shall be made in writing and shall state, in detail, the board's reasons for such determination. The board shall notify the person(s) whose name(s) it intends to disclose, the City Attorney and the Police Chief (or City Manager if the Police Chief is the subject of the complaint), of its intent to make such disclosure by confidential written communication sent by regular mail or hand delivery at least ten (10) working days prior to such disclosure. In addition, the board's public report shall not include any discipline or personnel matters, although the board may comment generally as to whether the board believes discipline is appropriate without commenting on the extent or form of the discipline. A copy of this public report to the City Council shall be given to the complainant(s), the police officer(s), the Police Chief, Equity Director, anc the City Manager. The public report shall indicate whether the board affirmed or rejected the decision set forth in the report of the Police Chief and/or City Manager. 7. The board shall not issue a report which is critical of the sworn police officer's conduct until after a "name clearing hearing" has been held, consistent with constitutional due process law. The board shall give notice of such hearing to the police officer so that the officer may testify before the board and present additional relevant evidence. The board shall be responsible for protection of all State and Federal rights enjoyed by the officer. The officer may waive the right to this hearing upon written waiver submitted to the board. https://export.amlegal.com/api/export-requests/e7462bcb-522e-4c01-8280-b50d77d85d63/down load/ 6/9 6/10/25, 4:23 PM export. am legal.com/api/export-requests/e7462bcb-522e-4c01-8280-b50d77d85d63/download/ 8. If the board's report is not critical of the officer's conduct, the board is not required by law to offer a hearing to the officer, but the board may hold hearings as deemed appropriate by the board. 9. The board's report to the City Council shall be completed within ninety (90) calendar days of receipt of the Chiefs or City Manager's report. The City Council may grant requests for extensions to this deadline upon good cause shown. 10.

The board's annual report may also include recommended changes in police practices, policies or procedures. The annual report will also include data derived from the exit survey tool developed for the complainant to provide staff and the public with perceptions of the process. 3. In addition to the annual report, the board shall report to the City Council, from time to time, on police practices, procedures and policies, including recommended changes, if appropriate, and hold at least one community forum each year for the purpose of hearing views on the policies, practices and procedures of the Iowa City Police Department. 4.

Hi Everyone, Here are the May 2025 graphs of the JECC Data from some of Johnson County's Law Enforcement Agencies. I gather data from the Joint Emergency Communications Center and graph them into a public interest format. This is the JECC Link to Daily 911 Calls, Police Responses, and Actions. htto:_Ilv�,1���e�.�r�Liecel.�r ��b.R Please bear in mind that I am not paid or supported by any law enforcement agency or branch of government. I do this because I cannot bear the silence that follows public criticism of law enforcement. It is the same reason that I created Truth Download 2020Vision for at riskteens of color. I couldn't bear the hostility they silently faced in their schools. That said, all of Johnson County's Law Enforcement recognizes the fears caused by national news. Still, their focus is on the needs within their community. Heading into work, learning where they are needed each day - their thoughts include a family who's struggling, a car stolen from a driveway, wondering about a young mother's heart attack, a court appearance, and every next call received. Absent from their minds is my Eritrean sister-in-law, who is at risk of deportation even though she was granted asylum in the 199os. Divorces can happen, but a sisterhood is unbreakable. That sorrow belongs to me. I don't want or need Johnson County's peacekeepers to be distracted by my troubles. Likewise, the decision to build a County Jail cannot be based on external voices with one social vision. I would ask you to review every "No Contact Order" that's violated, every domestic abuser arrested then released, every DUI, and so many recidivist crimes. Local law enforcement is clever surprised by who breaks the peace again. They knew who needed a place to stop and think, but there's no available cell for that in Johnson County. The proposed County Jail is intended to last for many decades and scaled to include exceptional health, legal, and practical support systems for people incarcerated there. It is designed to allow safe distances for the vulnerable. 11 is also intended to create spaces for law enforcement training, for recovering and maintaining physical health, and for mitigating the harm the job requires your police to bury within themselves each day. We cannot ask County and local law enforcement be responsive/responsible for masked Federal employees who refuse to seek legal warrants. Are we safe? Are our immigrant family members? We have what's called "Home Rule" in Johnson County. It allows the Board of Supervisors to manage demands made by Federal Agencies. It allows local and County law enforcement to focus on their work -to protect, serve, and maintain the peace in our communities. When I sit with the policing data from each town -it's easy to see through those numbers that each community is unique. Your local Police Departments know who brings that data to life. They know your community organizations, your houses of worship, your schools, your local government, and they know the laws and ordinances that govern your town and Johnson County. So, Deputy Sheriffs and Officers move quickly and quietly around the County - unseen until we need help. That is the work of the smallest minority of people in Johnson County.

I hope to keep sending these graphs to you every month. If you know anyone who would like to gather data for additional jurisdictions, please tell them to contact me.

To: Board Members, ICPRB From: Saul Mekies, Chair Date: 6/10/2025 I had to abruptly travel to Montreal for family matters; my apologies for not being to attend the June 10 meeting. I expect to return in time for the June 17. While I had considered requesting a renewal of my membership to the Board, I will not do so as I expect to be missing more meetings in the future. I would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation for serving with you on the Board. As I leave the Board, I would also ask for your consideration of at least three recurring issues that remain of concern to me and maybe to other Board members. I am not requesting a response. 1. On a number of occasions police officers have had to respond multiple times to calls involving the same individuals (e.g. in one case that amounted to 50 to 100 times by police count). Some of these incidents include "children in the middle," skate -boarders on sidewalks near a senior center, individuals repeatedly involved in fights in multiple venues on the same night, monopolizing police time which may be needed in critical areas. While the inherent problem may be outside the scope of the Board, nevertheless, I urge the Board to voice its concern and forward it to the City Council. Since we are one of the few entities being made aware of these incidents, it behooves us to point to these incidents, and bring them up to the attention of city officials so that they may be more impetus to address the underlying issues properly and professionally. I underscore that these incidents are merely those we hear about; there are far more. Bringing up these concerns is in all our interest: the offender who may need help; the victims and potential victims; the individual police officers who may not be equipped to address these encounters; the police department with limited resources; and especially the defenseless children involved who have no voice. While the City Council may be already aware of these incidents, underscoring them may help. 2. Elections of Board officers: In the past, a nominating committee, appointed by the Board, was charged with nominating officers, although nominations from the floor were also possible. The system, in my opinion, was arcane and cumbersome. As I recall, on each nominating occasion that I witnessed, the nominating committee members reported back by nominating themselves. We have since moved to a more open nomination of officers from the floor at a regularly scheduled meeting. The adjustment to a more open process still allowed for some veiled lobbying; however, I believe there is more daylight in the system. I would urge the Board to keep the new open practice, rather than reverting to the old one. 3. Robert's Rule of order: we are supposed to follow them. They may be cumbersome and may at times impede the flow of a discussion. However, they also put all members on equal footing rather than allow the more aggressive members to interrupt at any time, speak out of turn, and neglect other members' input. The rules also allow for less confusion as to what we are voting for as we experienced at times, including at the last meeting (i.e. following the logic of having a motion on the floor, seconding it, discussing it, and then know what we are voting for). We've somehow managed, but new Board members may need guidance and example so as not to fall into a free-for-all habit. Mistakes can occur (as I have exemplified at times) but interruptions can always take place under Robert's Rules for valid reasons: point of information or clarification, and point of order to bring the assembly to attention. I've shared a two -page summary of those rules (also attached here for your consideration) with our parliamentarian which should suffice to cover the basic needs of the Board. Thanks for your consideration, Saul Hoer D.C.'s faili�to Curb truancy fueled a surge in youth crime District leaders linked school attendance to crime but failure to reduce absenteeism in middle schools vielded the biggest crime surge in a generation. By Robert Samuels, Lauren Lumpkin and John D. Harden Roberts Rules of Order - Simplified Guiding Principles: Everyone has the right to participate in discussion if they wish, before anyone may speak a second time. • Everyone has the right to know what is going on at all times. Only urgent matters may interrupt a speaker. • Only one thing (motion) can be discussed at a time. A motion is the topic under discussion (e.g., "I move that we add a coffee break to this meeting"). After being recognized by the president of the board, any member can introduce a motion when no other motion is on the table. A motion requires a second to be considered. If there is no second, the matter is not considered. Each motion must be disposed of (passed, defeated, tabled, referred to committee, or postponed indefinitely). How to do things: You want to bring up a new idea before the group. After recognition by the president of the board, present your motion. A second is required for the motion to go to the floor for discussion, or consideration. You want to change some of the wording in a motion under discussion. After recognition by the president of the board, move to amend by • adding words, • striking words or • striking and inserting words. You like the idea of a motion being discussed, but you need to reword it beyond simple word changes. Move to substitute your motion for the original motion. If it is seconded, discussion will continue on both motions and eventually the body will vote on which motion they prefer. You want more study and/or investigation given to the idea being discussed. Move to refer to a committee. Try to be specific as to the charge to the committee. You want more time personally to study the proposal being discussed. Move to postpone to a definite time or date. You are tired of the current discussion. Move to limit debate to a set period of time or to a set number of speakers. Requires a 2/3`ds vote. You have heard enough discussion. Move to close the debate. Also referred to as calling the question. This cuts off discussion and brings the assembly to a vote on the pending question only. Requires a 2/3" vote. You want to postpone a motion until some later time. Move to table the motion. The motion may be taken from the table after 1 item of business has been conducted. If the motion is not taken from the table by the end of the next meeting, it is dead. To kill a motion at the time it is tabled requires a 2/3`ds vote. A majority is required to table a motion without killing it. You believe the discussion has drifted away from the agenda and want to bring it back. "Call for orders of the day." You want to take a short break. Move to recess for a set period of time. You want to end the meeting. Move to adjourn. You are unsure the president of the board announced the results of a vote correctly. Without being recognized, call for a "division of the house." A roll call vote will then be taken. You are confused about a procedure being used and want clarification. Without recognition, call for "Point of Information" or "Point of Parliamentary Inquiry." The president of the board will ask you to state your question and will attempt to clarify the situation. You have changed your mind about something that was voted on earlier in the meeting for which you were on the winning side. Move to reconsider. If the majority agrees, the motion comes back on the floor as though the vote had not occurred. You want to change an action voted on at an earlier meeting. Move to rescind. If previous written notice is given, a simple majority is required. If no notice is given, a 2/3rds vote is required. Unanimous Consent: If a matter is considered relatively minor or opposition is not expected, a call for unanimous consent may be requested. If the request is made by others, the president of the board will repeat the request and then pause for objections. If none are heard, the motion passes. • You may INTERRUPT a speaker for these reasons only: o to get information about business —point of information to get information about rules— parliamentary inquiry o if you can't hear, safety reasons, comfort, etc. —question of privilege o if you see a breach of the rules —point of order o if you disagree with the president of the board's ruling —appeal o if you disagree with a call for Unanimous Consent —object Quick Reference Count May Be Must Be Open for Can be Required to Reconsidered or Seconded Discussion Amended Pass Rescinded �I _ �l Majority Majority Main Motion Amend Motion Kill a Motion Majorit Limit Debate 2/3rds Close Discussion 2/3'ds Recess M2jorit Adjourn End meeting) Majority Refer to Committee Majority Postpone to a later time Majority Table Majority Postpone Indefinite) Majority
