The State of California is changing its 30 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: mental health diversion program next year. 31 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 4: The mental Health Diversion blaw that was passed many years 32 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 4: ago which allowed criminal defense attorneys and public defenders to 33 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 4: make up an illness as to the reason that you 34 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 4: robbed the seven eleven, even if you didn't have a diagnosis, 35 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 4: and instead of going to jail, you would get mental 36 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 4: health treatment and any mental illness would do You could 37 00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 4: say the reason that you drove a Kia into a 38 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 4: jewelry store was because you had ADHD. I'm not even 39 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:13,399 Speaker 4: like exaggerating, that's what was happening. Well, a new law 40 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 4: was just passed to hopefully crack down on all of 41 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 4: those abuses. For more on this, we go to ABC 42 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 4: ten in Sacramento. 43 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:27,359 Speaker 5: At the start of next year, California's mental health diversion 44 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:28,639 Speaker 5: program will change. 45 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 6: Now. 46 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 7: The program was established in twenty eighteen, but there's a 47 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 7: new push at the capitol to narrow down who qualifies 48 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 7: for it. 49 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 5: ABC ten State Matters political reporter Jenny Huh breaks down 50 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,679 Speaker 5: the year's long debate on incarceration versus treatment. 51 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 4: Well, we did incarceration for a while, then we've done 52 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 4: treatment for a while. I think we can compare and 53 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 4: contrast at this point. 54 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: And when they go well, putting them in jail doesn't 55 00:02:56,360 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: necessarily fix their underlying problem. My response is who cares? 56 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 1: It keeps them for robbing the target. 57 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,359 Speaker 8: You may have heard of California's mental health diversion program. 58 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 8: It's focused on rehabilitation and treatment rather than incarceration, but 59 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 8: some lawmakers say there are dangerous loopholes and that reforms 60 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:17,359 Speaker 8: are needed. 61 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 9: We believe that the mental diversion program is a good program, 62 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 9: but it needs to be good for the right individual. 63 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 8: Democratic Assembly Member Stephanie Wynn has been pushing for an 64 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 8: update to the mental health diversion program. Win and public 65 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 8: safety advocates say currently judges are not given enough authority 66 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 8: to deny diversion even when the defendants should not be eligible. 67 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 4: And law enforcement and district attorneys have been sounding the 68 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 4: alarm on this. This went nowhere in the legislature last year, 69 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 4: but thanks to the advocacy of das in Sacramento like Tinhoe, 70 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 4: and das like Brooke Jenkins in San Francisco, and sheriffs 71 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 4: like Jim Cooper, who has become quite an important voice 72 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 4: in all these issues. This time it finally past the 73 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 4: finish line. 74 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 1: Well, it's like what was going on in San Francisco 75 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: where you had people who were dealing fetanyl and they 76 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: were told, okay, just say you were human trafficked here, 77 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 1: and then you're going to get out all the punishment. 78 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,479 Speaker 4: Gravity reks and I suggest behavioral health, change the aim 79 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:20,839 Speaker 4: to the Department of Safety and Happiness, just so we 80 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 4: have another fun show down the road as originally written 81 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 4: the lost strip Judge that guy ran for Congress and 82 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 4: there were note takers.

And tin Hoe 90 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 4: was so offended by the caller that he canceled the interview. 91 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: Well, if you're a candidate for Congress and you're not 92 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 1: doing interviews on radio stations at service your district, you 93 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 1: might not win the election. 94 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 4: Less, Siegel had to text me he canceled.

If the defense attorney or 110 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 4: the criminal or the public defender straight up said mental illness, 111 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 4: you get your diversion. 112 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: Great, We This. 113 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 8: Mental health diversion program allows those with qualifying mental health 114 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 8: disorders to receive treatment instead of having to serve time. 115 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 8: Upon completion of treatment, the chargers are typically dismissed and 116 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 8: records wiped clean. 117 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,280 Speaker 9: It's the public's safety, right, It's the community safety that 118 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 9: is at risk here, and I think everybody understood. 119 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 4: That, but also preservedly well, they didn't understand it last year. 120 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: But things have changed, I'm telling you, and we talk 121 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 1: about this in the Accountability podcast. When it comes to 122 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: the Whippets, it seems like things work in waves. And 123 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: for a long time we were decriminalizing everything, and we 124 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: were allowing all the bad behavior because we didn't want 125 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:58,479 Speaker 1: over incarceration. And now, even though it's baby steps, we 126 00:06:58,600 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 1: are starting to correct it. 127 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 9: Ran the mental diversion program was important as. 128 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,679 Speaker 8: Well, but opponents say the bill will likely deny treatment 129 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 8: for those who need it, ultimately reducing public safety. 130 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 4: Okay, the changes in the law are pretty simple. A 131 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 4: judge can say no, and you have to have an 132 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 4: actual diagnosis within five years of your mental illness. That 133 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 4: doesn't sound like a big ask. It's like going to 134 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 4: sixth grade math class. They're just asking for you to 135 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 4: show your work. 136 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 11: People funneled into jail rather than into treatment. 137 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 4: What the hell kind of filter does she have on 138 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 4: her zoom? 139 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: I don't know, but she looks like she just got 140 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: shot with a tranquilizer gun. 141 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 4: She's got her pronouns in There. 142 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 11: Have higher rates of recidivism, they don't get the treatment 143 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 11: they need. 144 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 4: Well, does it count as recidivism if the person never 145 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 4: even goes into jail or prison because they went to 146 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 4: an outpatient mental health program. We have so many documented 147 00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 4: stories of people that were on mental health to de 148 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 4: version that went on to commit other crimes. We've done 149 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 4: them in the crime blodder over and over and over again. 150 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 4: Because there is so many loopholes when it comes to 151 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 4: this law. 152 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 1: I think that's what they them wants. 153 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 8: Meantime, there's another diversion reform being pushed by Republican state 154 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 8: Senator Shannon Grove. When and the district attorneys say they 155 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 8: support this bill too. It seeks to mandate evidentiary hearings 156 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,559 Speaker 8: when diversion is being considered, though Grove wanted to add 157 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 8: more exclusions like human trafficking and child abuse. 158 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, shouldn't there be specific categories of crimes where? Oh? 159 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,200 Speaker 4: I don't care. If you're crazy, you're going away. 160 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 1: You'd think, she. 161 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 8: Says she had to heavily amend the bill for it 162 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 8: to pass the Assembly Public Safety Committee. 163 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:43,559 Speaker 11: I find it difficult. 164 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 4: This is the same Public Safety committee where she went 165 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,200 Speaker 4: to war with them last year over them trying to 166 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 4: stop from becoming a felony if someone picked up a 167 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 4: sixteen or a seventeen year old for the purposes of sex. 168 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: That year, it was like every article that came out 169 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,079 Speaker 1: of that committee was from the onion. 170 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 4: YEP. I understand something happened that doesn't usually happen in California. 171 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 4: The locals paid attention, the locals spoke up, and the 172 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 4: Assembly Public Safety Committee was shamed into doing their job, 173 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 4: and that law did get passed well. 174 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 1: And also, don't forget the guy that was the chairman 175 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,199 Speaker 1: of that committee, Reggie Jones Sawyer, who comes from Los 176 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 1: Angeles and was so awful at killing so many of 177 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 1: those bills, termed out of office and he was replaced 178 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 1: with someone else. 179 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 4: He ran for La City Council because that's what you 180 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 4: do on the musical chairs, that is term limits, and 181 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 4: I think he came in fourth or fifth. 182 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 1: Good Why it's. 183 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 2: So hard to protect victims and women and children in 184 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 2: this state. 185 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 8: We spoke to a former state senator, one of the 186 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 8: creators of the diversion program. He emphasizes the goal was 187 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 8: to reduce crime and state prison population. 188 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 6: If we did treat a large number of people through 189 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:00,959 Speaker 6: the court system where they could be identified needing treatment, 190 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 6: it would reduce recidivism and reduce crime. 191 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 4: How exactly does saying you have ADHD does make you 192 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,599 Speaker 4: someone that does not fallow under the same levels of 193 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 4: accountability as the rest of us. You notice he's still 194 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 4: talking about this in terms of theory and not in 195 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 4: terms of what we know to be true now that 196 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 4: we've been doing it for some time. Well, and you've 197 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,840 Speaker 4: talked about this before. Look at specifically, one of the 198 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 4: big proponents of these reforms was Jim Cooper, who's been 199 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 4: the sheriff of Sacramento for a very long time. But John, 200 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 4: he used to be in the legislature and he was 201 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 4: singing a very different tune. 202 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: And now that he's the sheriff of Sacramento County, he 203 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: found Jesus real fast. 204 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 4: As soon as you go from the theory which you 205 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 4: have to talk about in the legislature, to the reality 206 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,840 Speaker 4: of what these laws do. You become a very different 207 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 4: kind of person. 208 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: What's the old saying where you stand depends on where 209 00:10:58,040 --> 00:10:58,440 Speaker 1: you sit. 210 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 8: The Senator says it was non intended for violent offenders 211 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 8: and that he supports both Grove and Win's reforms. 212 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 6: If you commit those kinds of crime, you're more and 213 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 6: welcome to stay there for the rest of their life. 214 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 8: Win's bill will take effect at the start of next year, 215 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 8: and Groves buil. 216 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:15,840 Speaker 4: You hear that crazy is you've got six months to 217 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 4: commit all the crimes you want. 218 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 1: Don't tell them. 219 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,959 Speaker 8: Well, we'll continue to move through the legislative process at 220 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 8: the state capitol. Jenny Huh, ABC ten. 221 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 4: So there you go. That's what's going on with the 222 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 4: changes to California's mental health diversion law and Randy. 223 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: We also have an update on California's nine to one 224 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: one system, which has been under fire for quite some 225 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 1: time for not working the way it's supposed to. 226 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 4: They called it next gen nine to one one, but 227 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 4: of course nothing about it was truly next gen because 228 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:54,080 Speaker 4: Gavin Newsom put one of his buddies in charge who 229 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 4: ignored every single red flag. The engineer said, this program 230 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 4: is not ready for prime time. They implemented it anyway, 231 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 4: and it was a disaster. Well, because next Gen nine 232 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 4: one one has been such a disaster, we are currently 233 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 4: still spending thirty three million dollars a month to keep 234 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 4: the old nine one one system going while we still 235 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 4: work out the kinks on the new nine one one system, 236 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:20,559 Speaker 4: so it doesn't. 237 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 1: Work and it's costing a fortune yep, for. 238 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 4: More in the next Gen nine one one nightmare. There's 239 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 4: some alliteration for you. Here is NBC in the Bay, 240 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 4: who has been all over this story for years. 241 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 12: Three million dollars a month. 242 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 13: That's how much Californians are paying for new digital nine 243 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 13: one one services that the state says. 244 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 12: We're not even using. 245 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 13: A lot of the time, California is moving away from. 246 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 4: That tex We could really use some real auditing in 247 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 4: the state and a lot of these things. We actually 248 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 4: have state audits that show how much money we waste, 249 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 4: but the governor and the legislature ignore the auditsnology. 250 00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 13: Because they haven't been able to make it work reliably, 251 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 13: So why are we still paying millions for it monthly? 252 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 13: Senior Investigator Candice Win follow the money to find the 253 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 13: answers for over a year. 254 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 12: The state has been in an expensive. 255 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 14: Transition, pivoting to a different approach to digitizing our nine 256 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 14: one one network. The high priced project called Next Generation 257 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 14: nine one one has had a lot of problems back 258 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 14: in twenty you know. 259 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 4: I have a feeling that when Gavin Newsom runs for president, 260 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 4: he's not going to be touting his book Citizenville, which 261 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 4: was supposed to be his roadmap to modernizing local government, 262 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 4: because it didn't work. 263 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 1: And here's the thing. If you are going to give 264 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 1: your buddies the contracts and you are going to give 265 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 1: your unqualified friends jobs, don't do it with something important. 266 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: Don't do it with the nine to one one system. 267 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: Do it with other things. It can't kill anyone, but 268 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:52,199 Speaker 1: the nine one one system is actually important. 269 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 14: Nineteen, the California Office of Emergency Services signed contracts with 270 00:13:56,559 --> 00:14:00,040 Speaker 14: three regional vendors to create a statewide. 271 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 12: Next Gen nine one and when network. 272 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 14: The vendors were supposed to create systems in their own 273 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 14: regions that work together, but some of the first nine 274 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 14: one one centers that use the new tech had problems 275 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 14: like misrouted and dropped calls. 276 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 4: Of course, and one of those areas was Rancho Mirage. 277 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 14: To internal records we obtained, Californians have paid nearly a 278 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 14: half a billion dollars. After our investigative unit exposed those issues, 279 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 14: cal Oees announced in November it's switching from the regional 280 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 14: approach to a single statewide network. 281 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 4: But the only check on the government that we have 282 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 4: in California is the local news. So I hope that 283 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 4: you subscribe to all of these channels because they do 284 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 4: incredible work up and down the state. 285 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 1: It is, and I'll tell you having local people answer 286 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 1: the phones is probably the best way to do it. 287 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,240 Speaker 1: I think I've told the story on the air before, 288 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 1: but I'll tell it again because I think it applies here. 289 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 1: I was coming back from Las Vegas the back way. 290 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 1: If you come back the back way from Las Vegas, 291 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 1: you go through the middle of nowhere, and there's an 292 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 1: area on the way called Sema Cima that is about 293 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: as remote as you can get in the state of California. 294 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 1: And I saw an overturned car that was there and 295 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 1: the person was stuck in the car. Well, it's not 296 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 1: like there's a seven eleven down the road where you 297 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 1: can go get help. You're in the middle of nowhere. 298 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 1: So someone stopped to render aid. I continued driving until 299 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: I found a payphone, which was just outside of Kelso, 300 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 1: which is also the middle of nowhere. But there's a 301 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,720 Speaker 1: train station there and you call nine to one one, 302 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 1: and when you get a call center in some other 303 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 1: part of the state, they don't have any idea where 304 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: SEEMA is, and your cell phone doesn't work, you don't 305 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 1: have service out there, so you can't give them the coordinates. 306 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 1: So trying to explain to someone in a call center 307 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 1: in some other part of the state where this overturned 308 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: call car was was very, very difficult. Finally, they transferred 309 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 1: me to someone in Barstow who took out their cell 310 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: phone and we could explain just exactly or describe where 311 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 1: the person was. And it was the agent in Barstow 312 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 1: that had the knowledge of that area who finally was 313 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 1: able to send emergency responders out and they saved the 314 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 1: person's life. But nine to one one is something you 315 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 1: can't fool with because frequently it is a matter of 316 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 1: life and death. 317 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 14: While that transition happens, cal Oees says, we are all 318 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 14: paying for an overlap in services that comes out to 319 00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 14: roughly a million dollars a month per contractor. Three million total, 320 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 14: and because the state doesn't want any nine to one 321 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 14: one disruptions during the process, we could keep paying that 322 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 14: extra money until next summer. 323 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: And this is why your taxes only go one way, 324 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:04,680 Speaker 1: and that's on. 325 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 4: The projections that this thing will be up and running 326 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:08,880 Speaker 4: next year. It won't, which. 327 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:12,160 Speaker 14: Would bring the total to more than fifty million dollars. 328 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 12: State lawmakers tell me they're shocked. 329 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:16,400 Speaker 2: It's so crazy. 330 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 15: We need complete transparency about where we went wrong and 331 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 15: what problems still exists, period, and we need to know 332 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 15: how much money was spent and where it was spent 333 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:30,400 Speaker 15: and get some accountability for the contractors and the state agencies. 334 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:33,880 Speaker 1: Hey, that's the name of our podcast.

Let's see 383 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:01,400 Speaker 4: who is it right now? 384 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 1: Is it you?

So I'm going to go to 386 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,360 Speaker 4: john doing a Fielding law read. 387 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 1: Here we go, all right. You know, when people think 388 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 1: about serious injuries, they usually think of broken bones, you know, 389 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 1: something obvious. But one of the most serious injuries people 390 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:22,160 Speaker 1: deal with after an accident is actually vision laws. After 391 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 1: a car crash, a fall, or a head injury, your 392 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 1: eyesight can change, sometimes right away, sometimes weeks or months later. 393 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 1: Glory vision, double vision, headaches, trouble focusing, and a lot 394 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 1: of times the eyes look fine, but the brain it 395 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 1: isn't processing what it's seeing correctly. That kind of injury 396 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 1: impacts everything, your work, you're driving, your independence, and if 397 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:46,640 Speaker 1: someone else's negligence caused it, that's not just an inconvenience, 398 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 1: it's a real long term issue. That's why I trust 399 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: and recommend Fielding Law. They don't just look at what's obvious. 400 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,640 Speaker 1: They understand brain and vision injuries and how deeply they 401 00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,680 Speaker 1: affect your life.
