To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the California Public Records Act, I hereby request the following records:
1. the total number of use of force incidents, separated by year, from 2019-2021 (for example, 302 use of force incidents in 2019, 287 use of force incidents in 2020, etc.)
2. the total number of use of force incidents, separated by type of force and year used from 2019-2020 (for example, information that specifies the number of taser incidents in 2019, baton incidents in 2019, etc.)
When available, I would appreciate being sent individualized data for each item in this request in spreadsheet format. If individualized data are unavailable, please send information that includes aggregate statistics for the item instead.
The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.
In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 10 calendar days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
Samuel Sinyangwe

Dear Samuel Sinyangwe,
We are in receipt of your request for the following:
1. the total number of use of force incidents, separated by year, from 2019-2021 (for example, 302 use of force incidents in 2019, 287 use of force incidents in 2020, etc.)
2. the total number of use of force incidents, separated by type of force and year used from 2019-2020 (for example, information that specifies the number of taser incidents in 2019, baton incidents in 2019, etc.)
that was received by the City of Antioch on July 3, 2023. . The City has conducted a diligent search in an effort to locate documents responsive to your request and located documents responsive to your request. Please consider this the City’s determination.
To the extent that your request seeks records relating to (1) the report, investigation, or findings of an incident involving the discharge of a firearm at a person by a peace officer or custodial officer; (2) the report, investigation, or findings of an incident involving the use of force against a person by a peace officer that resulted in death or in great bodily injury; and/or (3) the report, investigation, or findings of an incident that resulted in a sustained finding involving a complaint that alleges unreasonable or excessive force, the City determined that these records are subject to disclosure, subject to certain redactions. These documents are publicly available on the City’s NextRequest website.
To the extent that your request seeks records relating to use of force other than the three categories above, the City has determined that the records are exempt from disclosure pursuant to Government Code section 7927.705 as records “exempted or prohibited pursuant to federal or state law, including, but not limited to, provisions of the Evidence Code relating to privilege,” because the records are privileged pursuant to Penal Code section 832.5, 832.7 and 832.5 and Evidence Code section 1040 et seq. The records are also exempt from disclosure pursuant to Government Code section 7922.000 because the “facts of the particular case the public interest served by not disclosing the record clearly outweighs the public interest served by disclosure of the record.”
This determination was made by AMANDA NELSON, POLICE RECORDS SUPERVISOR
