The Oregonian, 5/31/14, excerpt from “Oregon rural police: Sheriffs, district attorneys speak out on their challenges” If you have spent the last 7 1/2 years chained to the floor of a concrete bunker, underground, in Antarctica, while comatose, and worse yet, it caused you to miss the film Alien Boy – see it immediately.  Then you’ll […]

Audio no longer recorded at Multnomah County jail booking area

The Portland Mercury, April 23, 2014 “WE TACKLED HIM.” The words are indistinct—sort of blurred at the edges, bleeding into one another. They are surrounded by other hazy noises, and followed by the laughter of jail deputies engaging in a bit of collegial bonhomie on a September evening. But less than an hour later, the […]

Guest column by Jenny Westberg, published in The Oregonian, July 18, 2012 An arbitrator’s decision last week to overturn 80-hour suspensions against Portland police officers involved in the 2006 death of James Chasse will further erode community confidence in the police, particularly among those affected by mental illness.

unsigned opinion by the editors of The Oregonian, July 17, 2012 No doubt, Chris Humphreys and Kyle Nice were pleased with an arbitrator’s decision this month related to the 2006 death of James Chasse.
