To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the California Public Records Act, I hereby request the following records:
For the period from January 1, 2019 through December 31, 2019 and the period from January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020, data on the each use of force by representatives of this agency, including but not limited to:
1. the total number of use of force incidents, separated by year and by type of force used from 2019-2020 (for example, "27 taser incidents in 2019, 3 baton incidents in 2020, etc.)
2. the total number of civilian complaints alleging any form of law enforcement misconduct that were reported and the total number sustained, separated by year (for example, 8 complaints in 2016, 2 complaints sustained in 2017, 4 complaints in 2018, 1 complaint sustained in 2019, etc.)
3. the total number of civilian complaints alleging law enforcement use of excessive force that were reported and the total number sustained from 2016-2020, separated by year
4. the total number of civilian complaints alleging biased policing or racial profiling that were reported and the total number sustained from 2016-2020, separated by year
5. the total number of civilian complaints alleging criminal conduct that were reported and the total number sustained from 2016-2020, separated by year
Note that my requests for civilian complaints are specifically for civilian complaints alleging police misconduct, please do not include complaints filed by one officer/the department against another officer.
These records may include, but are not limited to:
1. Annual Use of Force Reports created by the Pleasanton Police Department
2. Monthly Uniform Crime Reports submitted by the Pleasanton Police Department to the Department of Justice
If documents are denied in part or in whole, please specify which exemption(s) is (are) claimed for each passage or whole document denied. Please provide a complete itemized inventory and a detailed factual justification of total or partial denial of documents. Specify the number of pages in each document and the total number of pages pertaining to this request. In excising material, please “black out” the material rather than “white out” or “cut out.” I expect, as provided by the California Public Records Act, that the remaining non-exempt portions of documents will be released.
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,
Bryan Tor
