Kpix 5s Sandra Osborne is live outside the Police Station with a look at a new report reporter the big problem here is that in the review it talks about the lack of information for auditors to actually comb through to get the details they need and according to these auditors they say they have no authority to review some of the use of force cases if a complaint hasnt been filed by somebody in the public. So literally somebody has to go file a formal complaint for these auditors to be able to go through the details of that case. Now, this is just one of the big topics in the annual review up for discussion at todays city council meeting. The independent auditor also raised concerns for the departments tendency to give officers the benefit of the doubt in use of force cases. Overall though the number of complaints has fallen. They went from 303 in 2015 to 292 in 2016. According to san joseinside.
