>> bill: now we find empty robot cars filling the streets of san francisco. some people said to be confused and annoyed by all the cars being tested. they never exceed the speed limit. come to a full stop at stop signs and hit the brakes the slightest hint of a problem but also get confused, freeze and crash when they encounter a scenario not pre-programmed. all part of the learning process, i would imagine. >> dana: it is annoying. a weird thing to have this be happening while other people are out and about. >> bill: had some friends in phoenix. they called an uber and a way mo showed up. what is this? they got in and it was driverless and they had a woman at some sort of central command speak to them in the car to let them know everything is cool. do you need anything, is everything in order? it was at night. they were driving a big street and out of nowhere the car stops.
hear saying, you know, stomp his ass and uses the taser. tha that is someone in the crosshairs of the district attorney and we could potentially see charges. a total of about seven or so officers are under criminal investigation. so we will see if more. also the department of justice investigation and whether or not they are going to bring criminal charges against these officers for civil rights violations. there is a lot. also the other thing that's happening, this community really besieged by crime. crime is a significant issue in this community and they are asking for police to do more, but last night the city council, there is a new ordinance now in place as a result of this where unmarked police vehicles can no longer do crime -- do car stops. >> beyond the scorpion unit? >> right. so if you are an unmarked car in the city of memphis, you are no longer allowed to pull over vehicles unless there is some kind of exigent circumstance. it is going to change policing
certainly not by any means, is it any worse than what we've already been seeing. >> that's what i'm thinking. is this worse than their clients? >> i am puzzled by this. >> there was only one attorney that did this. i've asked him for an explanation, so far i don't have it. so i don't know. this is really puzzling, because it's also the city's property. there's a duty to inform the public. and this case is, you know, a high-interest case. and it took so long now to get this video, because they've been saying they were going to release it for weeks, but they were waiting until they were finished with these administrative hearings. it's done. i don't know. it's very puzzling, and you know, i think you just made a really good point. >> i would imagine there's not much surprise in hearing that the doj has now launched an investigation into the memphis police department. >> no, and i think we're going to see similar to what we see in louisville, will be happening in memphis. in talking to people in that community, these pretextural car stops, the way the police have treated some of them. and i know that there are
our suspect here who's charged in this case declared a nine-mile radius around his house as the nation of new israel and that that was his sovereign nation. and you know, they sue everybody in court. they drive around, they don't recognize the dmv. don't you wish you could do that? they don't have plates on their cars. the police pull them over, but it's no game. we've had sovereign citizen members, you know, kill police officers in car stops. it's a growing disturbing movement. >> there you have it because, kyle, i'd say this guy sounds crazy but he's not alone, so obviously he's part of something that may be growing that lots of people have known about, and so why is michigan a hot bed of this? >> you know, it's interesting because we've seen a lot of these groups in michigan, and i have -- you know, i think that we see these groups in michigan right now, these growing gruoup
police chief, that less technology-driven on the a.i. said and more clinical. and the atlas model says, if the police department is the patient, where are your problems? is it on domestic violence? is it pedestrian stops? are you getting civilian complaints from car stops? and they pull the incidents and they sit with the officer and play them the tapes with the department policy alongside it. and they say, this is you. this is the policy. are you doing it right? are you doing it wrong? and then, you learn two important things. number one, if lots of them are doing it outside of the policy, you have to ask yourself, what is wrong with the training that the officers don't get the policy? do we need to fix something on our end, as managers? or a smaller number of officers, we need to get them retrained. these cools tools are finding t way to police departments, using the technology for more than just recording the past.
and the atlas model, it says, if the police department is the patient, wear your problems? is it on domestic violence incident, is it on pedestrian stops? are you getting most of your civilian complaints from car stops? and the pull those incidents and they'll sit with the officer and play them their tapes with the department policy alongside. it and will say that this is, you this is the policy, are you doing right? are you doing it wrong? and, then there are two important things, laura. number one, if lots of them are doing it outside of the policy that you have to ask yourself what is wrong with the training if the officers don't get the policy. do we need to fix something on our end as managers or if it's a small number of officers we need to get them retrained. >> and also, yeah -- >> so these tools are finding their way to improve police departments, for more than just reporting in the past. >> and you're right about also identifying essentially what we talk about the culture of policing in that department may ultimately be.
you want to make sure that you are getting the best of the best that society has to offer and try to do away with those who might have some sort of situation where they can't control themselves. whether you are talking about increased de-escalation training perhaps, if you are talking about screening people better, if you are talking about increased training on how to respond to high-pressure situations like this, you know, they are doing a car stop at night, which is one of the most dangerous jobs a police officer can do. that's where most police officers get injured or killed every year, so doing car stops, particularly at night where your vision a hampered. increased training. that's what we need, is to have higher and more intense and more training done more often to lessen the chance that something like this happens. >> that's a great point. and i think, you know, it probably goes deeper than that, too, right because it comes down to policing culture. we are out of time.
