the disciplinary matrix doesn't really impact the number of investigators we need because we have to investigate the complaints that we receive.
3:38:21
And only after we make determinations are we able to determine to to figure out where on the matrix what level of discipline is required.
3:38:35
What we have seen is that the number of members of service against who the board substantiates misconduct and receive charges has gone way up since the imposition of the disciplinary matrix.

And so we believe we need 20 prosecutors to conduct prosecutions based on the current disciplinary matrix.
