And how does that trickle down to communities that are being impacted?
Michael Gerber
2:14:18
Right.
2:14:19
So the the idea the idea is that COs are taking this back to their cops, are learning from this learning from this because they're they're seeing what's appropriate and what's not.
2:14:28
They're getting feedback from executives on what works and what's not.
2:14:30
And that's they're taking it back to their teams, and they they wanna do this right.
2:14:34
They wanna in the same way they wanna succeed in ComStat, they wanna succeed in compliance debt.
2:14:39
I think I think it does have an effect.
2:14:41
And, frankly, is is compliance debt is a great example of the monitor raising concerns, some of the same concerns that you're talking about right now, and the department being proactive, being responsive.
2:14:53
I should say there are many things that we do because the monitor requires some of us, a 100%.
2:14:58
Compliance ad was something that we came up with.
2:15:00
We said, we wanna do this.
2:15:01
We came to the monitor with it.
2:15:03
We said, hey.
2:15:03
We think this would be really important, really helpful.
2:15:06
The monitor comes to every meeting or the monitor or a member of her team.
2:15:09
She's come to some herself.
2:15:10
Sometimes it's members of her team.
2:15:12
But they're they're at every single one of these meetings.
2:15:14
They are they are giving us feedback, and it's a very important step.
2:15:19
On the discipline piece, as I said earlier, we have a new police commissioner.
2:15:22
She is looking at this issue, this issue.
2:15:26
And I and I don't wanna get ahead of her, but what you are gonna see under under commissioner Tisch is a disciplinary system that is fair and that is effective.
2:15:36
And that is what you are going to see.
Rita Joseph
2:15:38
And we will hold you to that.
2:15:40
Chair, I'll come on the second round.
