. >> commissioner kingsley? >> thank you for your report. >> commissioner kingsley: my questions may be a little premature. do we have any information, percentages? >> approximately 1800 clients accessed either language line or an interpretation service from either an officer or a professional. >> of the 1800, is it broken down in terms of what percentage are officers and what is the language line? >> yeah. 1739 times language line was used. 90 percent is language line. >> what is the reaction to the use of language line? is it reliable? they have a sense that getting quality interpretation? >> by the very nature of using the phone and passing the phone three ways it slows the process. there is no doubt about it. when we dig down into the nuances, language line is what we have, they are professional. we trust them. they can testify as well in court. there is three-ways to say something. by the very nature of trying to hand the phone back and forth. >> how long does it take once a call is initiated? >> immediate.

so let you know that happened. >> thank you very much, commissioner kingsley. commissioner loftus. >> yes, i just had a couple things. i think we talked a lot about the bravery and heroism and the crying, especially on my part, around officer gritch and cloud and thanks, commissioner mazzucco. i think it's important, i said it then, we often talk about what's wrong with the department and that's definitely a role we have and something we have to do, but it's important to talk just as much about what's right with the department and to be present when the officers were recounting finding this baby that wasn't raining and it was raining at 2:00 am and going under a muni stop, i'm sure you all have stories like this, all the 2,000 officers that we don't see, have these stories where you are called for this service. a lot of being a police officer is going into harm's way when there's a shooter and a lot of it is being the only person that can save a life. i was really proud of these officers. they are like celebrities to me, i was taking pictures with my i phone. i

commissioner kingsley. commissioner loftus, i'm sorry. >> go ahead. lieutenant, thank you very much. just your few minutes here are very informative. i'm wondering what exactly will be done with the $200,000. >> what we're looking to do is increase the investigations. it's very time-consuming. the elements to discover human trafficking, it can come in different forms. it can be a deaf domestic violence call that results in us finding human trafficking. we have some stats for you regarding what was investigated and at this point last year we had 107 cases that were investigated. we had 74 identified victims of human trafficking. that was just law enforcement based, a total of 369 victims were identified through services provided through agency-specific legal outreach or other services. what we're trying to do is work in cooperation with them so the police department and the asian pacific islander outreach, we want to work with them providing available assistance to them for crime victims of human trafficking residing in san francisco. we will do the in

commissioner kingsley. >> i just wanted to thank you for coming here this evening and speaking to us and letting us know about this and being the mass -- messenger for the letter from officer martin. please if you would convey our thanks to both officers and our best wishes for a wonderful retirement life. >> thank you. would you please call line item no. 2. >> line item 3? >> 3, excuse me. thank you. >> no problem. >> been a long week. >> line item 3, reports and announcements. chief's, discussion, review of recent activities. >> commissioners, occ, public, as far as crime statistics go, total violent crime in the city remains relatively flat. our property crime is up about 9 percent, arrests are up, which is understandable, about 9 percent in addressing that. with regard to statistics, though, we did uncover yet another gap as we get better technologically, captain flaherty in preparation for our last meeting with the commission on status of women saw that the stats for db numbers, she felt they were a bit low. she discovered the reporting was for the fiscal year, she got with dire

. >> commissioner kingsley. >> commissioner kingsley: not that this is necessarily the forum but i thought that in today's paper the attorney general indicated that it was optional whether or not a jurisdiction wanted to turn over this data, and that we aren't under an obligation to forward data when low-level crimes. >> i spoke to the attorney general myself. i told her that we would continue to do, and that she understood that. but the notification is compulsory. >> i did not read the article that you're referencing. i understand that the issue was at california says it's optional. the federal government says it is not. in the meantime, this is what i am addressing. >> commissioners i want to be really clear because this is on television. for anybody the lives in san francisco, we are a sanctuary city. your status living in the united states is not an issue. we will not report. please. trust your san francisco police department. call us. we are here to help. >> commissioner turman: thank you chief for pointing that out. we already had a constitutional law here, i'm not sure that it is ho

. >> commissioner kingsley? >> ms. young, thank you very much for your report. it is very interesting. some of the questions i had have been addressed by commissioner schwatz's comments. i wanted more clarity around the timing and history of this. is 2012 the first compilation of the statistics? is the system established for data collection, is that a permanent part of our system of data collection going forward that we will improve upon? i wanted it a sense of the permanency of this, the development of it, and not just the project that is done every 10 years or something of that nature. >> this is a very historic thing for me. and sitting down with doctor -- we talked about what is the definition of domestic violence and we really do need to go down the list of statutes and say is this in or not. the district attorneys office is tracking domestic violence cases, the police department also. we are using the management system but as the systems hoping we will be able to show different sets of information to you. this is just the first touch of prototype reports.
