But she I IT AS A CCRB.
1:16:06
AM I correct THAT WHEN SHE WENT TO THE PRESS ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR QUALSKY CASE,
Crystal Hudson
1:16:13
SHE WAS SHE WAS CRITICIZING AN INVESTIGATION THAT WAS NOT A CCRB MATTER.
Dr. Mohammad Khalid
1:16:18
What I read in the paper I'm I'm sorry.
1:16:21
Maybe I misunderstood, but I read in the paper that she went public about this particular case.
Crystal Hudson
1:16:27
I I don't believe that's that's our understanding.
Dr. Mohammad Khalid
1:16:30
Maybe I I misunderstood.
1:16:32
And but, again, I I I'm not saying that every matter should be going to the press that if you can't get your results, but you should exhaust all other avenues before you you go and and the whole world has to know about which if can be solved internally, then I think we should first try that.
1:16:52
And if it doesn't work, then as an agency has to make a decision, what is the next step we should do?
1:17:00
TO GET
Crystal Hudson
1:17:02
I THINK THAT I WOULDN'T NECESSARILY DISAGREE.
1:17:07
I THINK EVERYBODY ALWAYS PROBABLY, I MEAN, I WOULD SAY FOR PUBLIC SERVANTS AND COMMISSIONERS, CERTAINLY WE WOULD TRUST AS NEW YORKERS that they are going through every option internally before taking maybe more risky, you know, attempts at at solving particular issues.
1:17:28
So I don't think it's it should be assumed that internal solutions haven't been sought out, but thank you for your your answers.
Dr. Mohammad Khalid
1:17:39
Thank you.
1:17:40
Thank you very much.
