Abuse of power and law enforcement in San Diego

San Diego 92105
Keynote Speakers
Brandon Duncan and Aaron Harvey



 Brandon (Tiny Doo) Duncan and Aaron Harvey were two of many young black men recently arrested and charged with "conspiring" with gang members under CA Penal Code Sec. 182.5.  This law makes a person who has been identified as a gang member by police (even if not a gang member, but falsely listed) or supports gangs (rap lyrics) responsible for any crime committed by a gang member.  The injustice was so obvious that a San Diego judge dismissed the charges against Brandon and Aaron on March 15, but many others remain charged and in jail for crimes the D.A. knows they did not commit.
              
Other topics include:
  • Citizen oversight of the police in San Diego

  • Stolen lives (police killings in San Diego)
  • A people's history of the police
