Jerry Brown turned in nearly a million signatures on Fri- day backing his bid to ask voters to approve new ways to reduce California's prison population, a spokes- man said. Brown wants voters in November to increase cred- its that allow adult inmates to get out of prison more quickly and to allow earlier parole for non-violent felons. The measure "will give voters a chance to improve public safety by providing incentives for people to turn their lives around," said Dan Newman, campaign spokesman Dan Newman said in an email. The Democratic gover- nor submitted the higher number of signatures to en- sure that he has the more than 585,000 valid signa- tures required for a con- stitutional ballot measure this year. California's district attor- neys say his initiative would increase crime and under- mine laws designed to pro- tect crime victims' rights. "With crime rates rising dramatically across the state of California for the first time in decades we be- lieve the voters will be ex- tremely reluctant to pass a measure that allows vio- lent felons who have com- mitted crimes along the likes of domestic violence, human trafficking, rape of an unconscious person and assault with a deadly weapon to be let back out on the streets before serv- ing the time sentenced by a Judge," California District Attorneys Association chief executive Mark Zahner said in a statement. Zahner said opponents will begin campaigning next week "to oppose this and protect victims and the future safety of Califor- nians." Opponents said previ- ously that they may not be able to financially match the $24 million that Brown has in his campaign account. Brown argues that his initiative is necessary to avert the possibility that federal judges could or- der the release of inmates to avoid crowded condi- tions. He also wants to ce- ment into state law several judges' orders that already help reduce the prison pop- ulation by speeding how quickly felons can be pa- roled. CALIFORNIA Brown turns in signatures for crime ballot initiative By Paul Elias The Associated Press SAN FRANCISCO The new police chief in San Fran- cisco inherits a daunt- ing job in a city divided by race, where black resi- dents' trust in law enforce- ment has been frayed by a series of violent confronta- tions and the perception that officers are hostile to- ward minorities. Deputy Chief Tony Chap- lin, a 26-year veteran of the police force, faces immense pressure to turn the trou- bled department around — and fast. Chaplin, who is black, has already received the support of the NAACP and the police officer's union. He was serving as head of a newly created group to oversee police reforms when Mayor Ed Lee ap- pointed him Thursday, the same day the previous chief stepped down. Chaplin "has the cha- risma, chemistry and courage to lead this de- partment," said Rev. Amos Brown, president of the San Francisco chapter of the NAACP. Lee said Chaplin's ap- pointment was an interim one and that a nationwide search for a permanent chief would be conducted. But the mayor said the de- partment is still expected to plow ahead with an- nounced changes. "I will hold the acting chief and the department to a high standard of ur- gency to implement the reforms we've already an- nounced in the past several months," Lee said. The mayor accepted Greg Suhr's resignation hours after a young black woman driving a stolen car was fatally shot by a sergeant. The unidentified sergeant and another offi- cer were struggling to pull the woman from the mov- ing car, which had sec- onds before slammed into a parked utility truck. It was the third fatal shooting of an unarmed minority suspect since five officers shot to death a young black man carrying a knife in December. That shooting was captured on video and circulated widely online. It appeared to con- tradict Suhr's initial asser- tion that the suspect men- aced officers with the knife before they opened fire. The video and Suhr's ini- tial statement prompted protests and calls for his resignation. Those calls in- tensified in April, when po- lice shot and killed a home- less Latino man who was also carrying a knife. Several days later, tran- scripts that showed three officers exchanging racist and homophobic text mes- sages were released. It was the second such texting scandal to rock the depart- ment since late 2014, when the public learned that eight officers had also ex- changed inappropriate messages ridiculing mi- nority suspects and using slurs. Though those texts were exchanged before Suhr was appointed chief in 2011, he was criticized for failing to discipline the officers quickly enough. A judge overturned Suhr's attempts to fire the men, ruling that he failed to act within a year of discovering the messages. The officers re- main on duty, but the city is appealing the judge's de- cision.
