A communication transmitted from Yi-An Huang, City Manager, relative to the Police Review and Advisory Board quarterly reports. REFERRED TO PUBLIC SAFETY IN COUNCIL 2.6.2023

POLICE REVIEW & ADVISORY BOARD A Department of the City of Cambridge, Massachusetts 51 Inman St. • Cambridge, Mass. 02139 • [phone removed] • www.cambridgema.gov/PRAB MEMO To: Yi-An Huang, City Manager From: Brian Corr, Executive Director, Police Review & Advisory Board Date: February 2, 2023 Re: Police Review & Advisory Board Quarterly Report for January 2023 Pursuant to Cambridge Municipal Code Chapter 2.74.040(E), the Police Review & Advisory Board “shall make quarterly reports to the City Manager, the Mayor, the City Council and to the public, of the Department’s activities during the previous year, including the handling of complaints, and of future plans.” In fulfillment of that requirement, I am submitting this memo as well as the complete set of minutes from the calendar year 2022 and the public docket of complaints. When a complainant files a complaint with the Board, the Board notifies the complainant that the Board received the complaint and explains the process of investigation and the Board’s determination. Once a complaint is filed, the Executive Director sends the complaint to the Professional Standards Unit (PSU) of the Cambridge Police Department for investigation on behalf of the Board. An investigation includes interviewing the complainant, involved police officer(s), and any other relevant individuals and reviewing police reports, witness statements, and other pertinent information. The Executive Director submits the investigative report from PSU to the Board, which reviews the report and may accept the report or order additional investigation into the complaint. After the investigation process is complete, the Board deliberates and makes a determination whether or not there was a violation of policy or procedures, or whether it is inconclusive. That finding is provided to the complainant and the PSU. Depending on the finding, any party to the complaint may request that the Board order a hearing. The Board decides whether to order a hearing based on the evidence it receives. If the Board holds a hearing, it will render a final decision. In addition, even if the Board finds no violation of policy or procedures, it may make recommendations to the City Manager and the Police Commissioner about changes the City can make to avoid similar situations in the future. In the calendar year 2022, the Board held eight public meetings, including five executive sessions under Section 21(a)(1) of the Massachusetts Open Meeting Law to consider complaints pending before the Board. During the executive sessions, the Board reviewed both the complaints and the investigations of those complaints conducted on its behalf by the PSU, and then made findings on the complaints. The Board also reviewed in executive session the one complaint received by CPD and the subsequent investigation of the complaint by PSU. In 2022, three complaints were filed with the Board. They are summarized as follows:

Complaint # Date Filed Type of Complaint Status Date Closed Outcome PR-2022-002 07/07/2022 Improper or Inadequate Investigation/Reporting Closed 10/26/2022 Cleared PR-2022-001-II 07/18/2022 Improper or Inadequate Investigation/Reporting; Rude or Discourteous Behavior; Discrimination/Bias-based Policing Closed 12/06/2022 Not Founded PR-2022-001 06/14/2022 Improper or Inadequate Investigation/Reporting; Discrimination/Bias-based policing Closed 10/26/2022 Cleared A significant impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Board has been the difficulty of providing training for the Board and the inability of Board members to conduct outreach to the community through community meetings and public events. The Board received training from CPD on the PSU policy and procedure for conducting complaint investigations, and Board members attended training webinars provided by the National Association for Civilian Oversight of Law Enforcement (NACOLE). For 2023, Board Chair Alexandra Fallon has proposed the following goals, which were reviewed with the full Board at its December 2022 meeting: • Board members and staff to participate in two CPD trainings - including “Integrating Communications, Assessment, and Tactics” (ICAT), a training on responding to situations where individuals that the police encounter are behaving erratically and perhaps dangerously but do not have a firearm. • CPD Commissioner Elow to attend two Board meetings to discuss key topics with the Board. • Improve access to filing complaints by launching an online complaint form. • Revise the Board’s Rules and Regulations to extend the deadline for complaints to be filed more than 60 days after the incident. • The Board will conduct a review of a minimum of two CPD policies. • Board members will participate in a minimum of three community outreach efforts. • The Board will have a quorum for all scheduled meetings. I look forward to providing these reports on a quarterly basis, and by the end of March 2023, I plan to prepare an annual public report on the work of the Board in 2022.

Executive Director’s Report • Exec. Dir. Corr reported on a meeting he attended in December of the “City Manager’s Task Force to Examine the Future of Public Safety in Cambridge.” The City will establish a new Cambridge Department of Community Safety (CDCS), which will be separate from the Cambridge Police Department (CPD) and staffed by trained civilians who will provide community services and programs focused on some of the most vulnerable individuals and groups in Cambridge. CDCS will implement a trauma-informed “Cambridge Alternative Public Safety Response Program” to respond to non-violent calls involving behavioral health, substance use, and homelessness with a harm-reduction approach. The program will include a crisis response specialist and a peer support specialist who will be the primary responders to those types of calls received by 911. The foundation of the program will be that all people deserve respect, autonomy, dignity, and opportunity. The City Manager plans to propose a budget of approximately $3,000,000 to support the CDCS. • Exec. Dir. Corr discussed his participation in the interview process for CPD hiring its first Informatics Analyst for their Procedural Justice Unit. This position is part of implementing a “Procedural Justice Dashboard” and a strategic research plan that advances the work of procedural justice and legitimacy-based policing. • The longest-serving member of the Board — Lucy Murray-Brown — will finish her second five-year term on April 30, 2022, and she is not eligible for reappointment, and her last meeting as a board member will be on April 27, 2022. • The 2022 NACOLE Annual Conference will take place in Fort Worth, TX from September 11 to 15, 2022. The location was chosen in part because it is home to one of the newer civilian oversight offices, the Fort Worth Office of the Police Oversight Monitor.

Commissioner Christine Elow has worked with the Cambridge Police Department for 27 years and believes in connecting with the most vulnerable people and diverting them away from the criminal justice system whenever possible. • Director Mulcahy suggested the Board would benefit from CPD’s Integrated Communications and Tactics (ICAT) training, developed by the Police Executive Research Forum based on research and on the principles of 21st Century policing. Chair Fallon discussed the possibility of setting up a date for the Board to receive training in ICAT, and all Board members agreed it was a good idea.

CPD is rewriting all their rules and regulations as a first step for accreditation, and to ensure that all their policies are in a consistent format, in one voice, and in alignment with CPD’s mission and values. They have been working on it for 11 months and hope to soon have them drafted. This is part of the process that the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, Inc. (CALEA) has established, and CPD expects to put in a formal application for the advanced CALEA accreditation that usually takes two to three years and involves

He noted that in the last month, he had fielded calls from people wishing to make complaints against the police departments in Boston, Lynn, Saugus, Melrose, Ashland, Pittsfield, Oxford, Sturbridge, and Weymouth, Mass. CPD Professional Standards, Training and Certification Unit Report • Dir. Mulcahy noted that the Professional Standards Unit (PSU) also receives calls and emails from individuals from across the state wishing to file complaints against other police departments and they also do their best to assist those individuals. • Dir. Mulcahy reported that PSU is working through the hiring process for two police cadets and two provisional officers, and anticipate that they will soon join the department. • Regarding the joint Cambridge/Northeastern University Training Academy, Dir. Mulcahy explained that as other departments are choosing to send their cadets to the academy, the incoming class will consist of 40 to 50 cadets from approximately ten police departments, and they anticipate that Cambridge will have about 10 student officer recruits among them. The academy will run from January to June, and he hopes that with COVID rates declining over time, Board members will be able to observe either the classroom or physical training, and that he can provide the Board a tentative training schedule to help Board member identify what they would be interested in observing. • Dir. Mulcahy updated the Board on the CALEA accreditation process, noting that the CPD Command Staff has been meeting weekly to review the revised policy manual section by section, which will be followed by a review by the Cambridge Police unions.
