01:36:09,192 --> 01:36:12,192 behavior is by enforcement and 2488 01:36:31,448 --> 01:36:33,917 you'll see this is a moving 2489 01:36:33,917 --> 01:36:34,318 violations and non-moving 2490 01:36:34,318 --> 01:36:36,318 violations. 2491 01:36:37,388 --> 01:36:40,988 Very important for us to enforce 2492 01:36:43,600 --> 01:36:44,994 both of those. 2493 01:36:44,994 --> 01:36:47,394 Here council member benavente 2494 01:36:49,299 --> 01:36:52,669 was asked to show and you see 2495 01:36:52,669 --> 01:36:55,690 we're up almost,000 total 2496 01:36:59,944 --> 01:37:01,978 stops from JANUARY to 2025. 2497 01:37:01,978 --> 01:37:04,715 This is a break down by 2498 01:37:04,715 --> 01:37:07,715 demographics as you'll see the 2499 01:37:18,795 --> 01:37:20,697 numbers. 2500 01:37:20,697 --> 01:37:22,733 Also you see the numbers in 2501 01:37:22,733 --> 01:37:25,235 terms of searches for 2024 even 2502 01:37:25,235 --> 01:37:28,235 though the number has raised 2503 01:37:28,406 --> 01:37:31,406 from 24 to 25, you'll notice the 2504 01:37:31,776 --> 01:37:32,776 percentage is literally almost 2505 01:37:32,776 --> 01:37:33,944 same. 2506 01:37:33,944 --> 01:37:35,944 3.47 percent. 2507 01:37:36,880 --> 01:37:40,480 Exactly the same in terms of 2508 01:37:42,319 --> 01:37:44,319 vehicle searches. 2509 01:37:45,890 --> 01:37:45,422 >> chief just to clarify my 2510 01:37:45,422 --> 01:37:47,422 request. 2511 01:37:47,658 --> 01:37:50,658 The data that's not compared 2512 01:37:51,262 --> 01:37:53,664 appropriately I think you did an 2513 01:37:53,664 --> 01:37:55,866 accurate job on slide 22 when 2514 01:37:55,866 --> 01:37:57,902 you show the disparity between 2515 01:37:57,902 --> 01:37:59,904 white drivers being stopped and 2516 01:37:59,904 --> 01:38:02,139 it being double but the more 2517 01:38:02,139 --> 01:38:03,207 dramatic number is the number of 2518 01:38:03,207 --> 01:38:05,207 searches. 2519 01:38:05,943 --> 01:38:09,543 I think a bar graph showcasing 2520 01:38:17,455 --> 01:38:19,855 the difference between looks 2521 01:38:21,659 --> 01:38:23,600 like 873 is a dramatic 2522 01:38:23,600 --> 01:38:24,395 difference is what's concerning 2523 01:38:24,395 --> 01:38:27,232 to people so that's the graph 2524 01:38:27,232 --> 01:38:30,434 that I feel is not presented 2525 01:38:30,434 --> 01:38:32,434 here. 2526 01:38:32,770 --> 01:38:33,104 It is a dramatically different 2527 01:38:33,104 --> 01:38:34,104 number. 2528 01:38:34,104 --> 01:38:35,473 >> we'll go to the next slide 2529 01:38:35,473 --> 01:38:37,873 that you are seeing. 2530 01:38:38,275 --> 01:38:40,611 You saw that percentage so this 2531 01:38:40,611 --> 01:38:41,112 is the results of these 2532 01:38:41,112 --> 01:38:43,112 searches, as well. 2533 01:38:43,348 --> 01:38:47,548 In terms of what we're able to 2534 01:38:53,124 --> 01:38:56,124 size and drugs and weapons. 2535 01:38:56,528 --> 01:38:58,928 About 40 percent and vehicle 2536 01:38:59,898 --> 01:39:02,298 results rom 24 and 2025 we're 2537 01:39:02,467 --> 01:39:05,467 up 61 percent in terms of 2538 01:39:06,437 --> 01:39:10,370 seizures and also up in weapon 2539 01:39:10,841 --> 01:39:12,841 seizures, as well. 2540 01:39:13,440 --> 01:39:15,444 It's note-worthy for white 2541 01:39:16,748 --> 01:39:17,949 drivers it's 60 percent when it 2542 01:39:17,949 --> 01:39:19,784 comes to drugs. 2543 01:39:19,784 --> 01:39:21,419 >> I'll show you the next slide. 2544 01:39:21,419 --> 01:39:22,887 The vehicle stops you talk about 2545 01:39:22,887 --> 01:39:24,887 the 102. 2546 01:39:28,526 --> 01:39:30,996 We had one point 2% in 2024 we 2547 01:39:30,996 --> 01:39:32,864 end up to 2%. 2548 01:39:32,864 --> 01:39:34,733 In 25 but I'll let you see the 2549 01:39:34,733 --> 01:39:36,100 next slide that shows a little 2550 01:39:36,100 --> 01:39:39,100 correlation of what we're able 2551 01:39:43,908 --> 01:39:46,908 to result so therefore, about 47 2552 01:39:47,790 --> 01:39:49,480 percent and just over 18% of 2553 01:39:49,480 --> 01:39:51,883 weapons among white drivers in 2554 01:39:51,883 --> 01:39:54,553 2024 but if you look to 2025 we 2555 01:39:54,553 --> 01:39:55,820 have 60 percent in drugs and 12 2556 01:39:55,820 --> 01:39:57,689 percent in weapons. 2557 01:39:57,689 --> 01:39:59,691 >> I guess what I'm hoping that 2558 01:39:59,691 --> 01:40:01,759 not only I hope to illustrate 2559 01:40:01,759 --> 01:40:05,130 but in the book I shared with 2560 01:40:05,130 --> 01:40:08,730 you and director john ones the 2561 01:40:10,602 --> 01:40:13,200 research shows that black, 2562 01:40:13,370 --> 01:40:14,706 white, asian, hispanic, once an 2563 01:40:14,706 --> 01:40:17,900 officer says they appropriately 2564 01:40:17,900 --> 01:40:19,430 need to be searched the 2565 01:40:19,430 --> 01:40:21,120 likelihood of being some 2566 01:40:21,120 --> 01:40:22,460 contraband is fairly equal 2567 01:40:22,460 --> 01:40:24,446 across demographic, so the 2568 01:40:25,490 --> 01:40:27,252 question becomes why is it that 2569 01:40:27,252 --> 01:40:29,287 one group ends up being stopped 2570 01:40:29,287 --> 01:40:30,789 so many times more when the 2571 01:40:30,789 --> 01:40:33,892 ratios are fairly equal and I 2572 01:40:33,892 --> 01:40:35,861 think the answer there is not 2573 01:40:35,861 --> 01:40:36,962 necessarily your response built 2574 01:40:36,962 --> 01:40:38,962 to resolve. 2575 01:40:39,297 --> 01:40:40,232 I think you said something a 2576 01:40:40,232 --> 01:40:41,366 moment ago. 2577 01:40:41,366 --> 01:40:43,101 Changing behavior can only 2578 01:40:43,101 --> 01:40:44,903 happen through enforcement and I 2579 01:40:44,903 --> 01:40:47,106 think that's a huge MISS 2580 01:40:47,106 --> 01:40:48,340 Statement because really 2581 01:40:48,340 --> 01:40:50,340 infrastructure changes can 2582 01:40:50,609 --> 01:40:52,678 change how fast someone is going 2583 01:40:52,678 --> 01:40:54,279 down a street without there 2584 01:40:54,279 --> 01:40:54,780 having to be an enforcement 2585 01:40:54,780 --> 01:40:56,381 matter. 2586 01:40:56,381 --> 01:40:58,617 How many times does a person 2587 01:40:58,617 --> 01:40:59,752 have to get a speeding ticket 2588 01:40:59,752 --> 01:41:00,652 before they never speed again in 2589 01:41:00,652 --> 01:41:02,254 their lives. 2590 01:41:02,254 --> 01:41:03,889 I don't think that's a limit. 2591 01:41:03,889 --> 01:41:06,192 >> I'm saying it will never be 2592 01:41:06,192 --> 01:41:07,593 the case that you are on every 2593 01:41:07,593 --> 01:41:09,128 single street every time someone 2594 01:41:09,128 --> 01:41:11,196 is speeding but we have to 2595 01:41:11,196 --> 01:41:11,797 change the infrastructure at 2596 01:41:11,797 --> 01:41:13,498 times. 2597 01:41:13,498 --> 01:41:16,680 It's not just a behavior thing. 2598 01:41:16,680 --> 01:41:17,869 >> sir, you can have an in for 2599 01:41:17,869 --> 01:41:19,338 structure set up but if 2600 01:41:19,338 --> 01:41:21,540 individuals continue to speed 2601 01:41:21,540 --> 01:41:22,941 and feel they can speed without 2602 01:41:22,941 --> 01:41:24,941 penalty they will. 2603 01:41:26,211 --> 01:41:27,179 Doesn't matter infrastructure 2604 01:41:27,179 --> 01:41:29,381 but when individuals believe 2605 01:41:29,381 --> 01:41:31,483 hey, I'm going to get stopped 2606 01:41:31,483 --> 01:41:33,285 and I don't want a fine or my 2607 01:41:33,285 --> 01:41:35,621 insurance to go up or get 2608 01:41:35,621 --> 01:41:35,921 arrested so there's part of that 2609 01:41:35,921 --> 01:41:37,921 also. 2610 01:41:38,624 --> 01:41:39,240 Not just infrastructure but 2611 01:41:39,240 --> 01:41:41,240 enforcement. 2612 01:41:42,610 --> 01:41:44,397 I will say that there s 2613 01:41:44,397 --> 01:41:46,397 is some 2614 01:41:46,799 --> 01:41:49,101 truth in terms of some of the 2615 01:41:49,101 --> 01:41:51,137 locations that we'll have issues 2616 01:41:51,137 --> 01:41:52,905 but I'll also firmly say that 2617 01:41:52,905 --> 01:41:53,272 enforcement is what changes 2618 01:41:53,272 --> 01:41:55,272 behavior. 2619 01:41:57,276 --> 01:41:59,780 >> the last thing I'll ask is, 2620 01:41:59,780 --> 01:42:00,979 and I feel like I get bad 2621 01:42:00,979 --> 01:42:01,346 answers when ask this 2622 01:42:01,346 --> 01:42:03,346 question. 2623 01:42:03,449 --> 01:42:05,217 But when you see the disparity 2624 01:42:05,217 --> 01:42:08,454 in the way that we conduct our 2625 01:42:08,454 --> 01:42:10,422 stops and searches is it all a 2626 01:42:10,422 --> 01:42:12,358 concern for you or do you have 2627 01:42:12,358 --> 01:42:13,960 an interest in looking what 2628 01:42:13,960 --> 01:42:15,795 other departments have done in 2629 01:42:15,795 --> 01:42:17,529 other parts of the country that 2630 01:42:17,529 --> 01:42:20,333 have no reduction in the number 2631 01:42:20,333 --> 01:42:23,933 of guns they have recovered or 2632 01:42:25,771 --> 01:42:28,374 the drugs on a, annual basis but 2633 01:42:28,374 --> 01:42:31,110 have done something the way 2634 01:42:31,110 --> 01:42:31,577 we're stopping disparities of 2635 01:42:31,577 --> 01:42:33,577 stopping people. 2636 01:42:34,130 --> 01:42:36,315 >> sir we have very much the 2637 01:42:36,315 --> 01:42:38,651 interest in trying to do that. 2638 01:42:38,651 --> 01:42:40,153 Unfortunately as I stated last 2639 01:42:40,153 --> 01:42:42,355 we were at a conference last 2640 01:42:42,355 --> 01:42:43,722 week and this is not just a 2641 01:42:43,722 --> 01:42:45,722 fayetteville issue. 2642 01:42:46,580 --> 01:42:46,459 This is north carolina, 2643 01:42:46,459 --> 01:42:48,361 nation-wide. 2644 01:42:48,361 --> 01:42:50,496 This is an issue but one thing I 2645 01:42:50,496 --> 01:42:53,330 would like for you to understand 2646 01:42:53,330 --> 01:42:55,568 and our citizens to understand 2647 01:42:55,568 --> 01:42:56,736 is when we stop a vehicle, it's 2648 01:42:56,736 --> 01:42:57,938 the violation. 2649 01:42:57,938 --> 01:42:59,972 It's not because of the race of 2650 01:42:59,972 --> 01:43:02,409 the person that's in the car 2651 01:43:02,409 --> 01:43:04,877 it's the violation that we stop. 2652 01:43:04,877 --> 01:43:07,413 >> I trust that 100 percent but 2653 01:43:07,413 --> 01:43:09,516 I'm saying when you see other 2654 01:43:09,516 --> 01:43:11,916 industries ike schools that 2655 01:43:12,218 --> 01:43:13,887 have shown that their rates of 2656 01:43:13,887 --> 01:43:16,422 explosion for black students is 2657 01:43:16,422 --> 01:43:19,422 higher and when you see 2658 01:43:19,960 --> 01:43:22,360 hospitals the maternal health 2659 01:43:23,529 --> 01:43:23,896 outcomes for black baders is 2660 01:43:23,896 --> 01:43:25,896 disparate. 2661 01:43:26,266 --> 01:43:27,934 We don't ask if they are racist 2662 01:43:27,934 --> 01:43:29,803 anymore we just say we need to 2663 01:43:29,803 --> 01:43:31,204 stop these outcomes from 2664 01:43:31,204 --> 01:43:32,806 happening so let's ove fast 2665 01:43:32,806 --> 01:43:34,641 first level of discussion. 2666 01:43:34,641 --> 01:43:37,343 I don't care about proving we're 2667 01:43:37,343 --> 01:43:39,343 doing something discriminatory 2668 01:43:39,713 --> 01:43:41,348 or racially bias but the 2669 01:43:41,348 --> 01:43:43,348 outcomes are indisputable. 2670 01:43:43,817 --> 01:43:44,830 What are we going to do about it 2671 01:43:44,830 --> 01:43:46,830 now? 2672 01:43:46,352 --> 01:43:47,988 That doesn't require that you're 2673 01:43:47,988 --> 01:43:50,388 doing something racially bias 2674 01:43:50,757 --> 01:43:54,357 because the outcomes are that so 2675 01:43:55,610 --> 01:43:56,529 what will we do bout it now? 2676 01:43:56,529 --> 01:43:56,997 >> thank you council member 2677 01:43:56,997 --> 01:43:58,798 benavente. 2678 01:43:58,798 --> 01:44:02,360 Every time we get to this point 2679

helpful 2683 01:44:09,760 --> 01:44:13,276 for me, because as we look at 2684 01:44:13,413 --> 01:44:15,820 25,000 stopped black drivers. 2685 01:44:15,820 --> 01:44:16,550 13 thousand white drivers

Like is there a category that 2693 01:44:30,330 --> 01:44:32,330 captures that number? 2694 01:44:33,000 --> 01:44:35,669 Because we all know all the 2695 01:44:35,669 --> 01:44:37,771 things that my colleague named 2696 01:44:37,771 --> 01:44:40,474 are rooted in economics but 2697 01:44:40,474 --> 01:44:41,575 nobody ever wants to get to the 2698 01:44:41,575 --> 01:44:43,544 economic

01:44:47,140 --> 01:44:49,140 Right? 2703 01:44:49,183 --> 01:44:51,318 And so it's easy for people who 2704 01:44:51,318 --> 01:44:53,187 have never walked this path to 2705 01:44:53,187 -->
