Twenty-First Quarterly Report of the Independent Monitor
for the Oakland Police Department

Conclusion
This is our twenty-first quarterly report. The status of compliance with the 22 active
requirements of the Negotiated Settlement Agreement is shown for all of our quarterly reports in
the graph below. It shows that 19, or 86%, of the Tasks are in Phase 2 compliance; and three, or
14%, of the Tasks are in partial compliance.
We do not doubt that the agency has come a long way in its attempts to come into full
compliance. We recognize that – and the Department is to be credited for its efforts. Recent
reports and Orders that have been issued point out that for the Department to fulfill its mandate
to the community, and of course, to the Court, that persons and institutions outside of the Police
Department, but part of the city structure, must also discharge their duties and obligations, as
such might pertain to oversight and support of this undertaking. The Oakland Police Department
is part of a larger local government: a government that has legal and ethical responsibilities to be
an integral part of this process. We look for recent revelations and developments to serve as an
impetus for the requisite changes throughout the system so that the ultimate reforms the Parties
seek, and the Court demands, are sustainable and everlasting.
