Police killings of Black people have sparked nationwide calls this
year for more independent oversight of police departments. In the
Bay Area alone, at least five ballot measures seek to strengthen or
expand the power of police commissions, independent investigations
and other oversight. KQED reporter Alex Emslie joins us to review
what’s being proposed, including the creation of a new agency to
investigate the San Francisco sheriff’s department, and a Sonoma
County effort to compel the sheriff to cooperate with independent
investigations and audits.
