Instead they ruled Kisela should have been granted qualified immunity since, under all these circumstances, Kisela’s actions did not violate any clearly established law. The majority of the Supreme Court did not rule on whether Kisela violated Hughes’ Fourth Amendment rights. Hughes survived her injuries and sued the department and the officers. Believing Hughes to be a threat to Chadwick, Officer Kisela fired at Hughes four times. They commanded Hughes at least two times to drop the knife, but she kept it in her hand. The officers had their guns out and were separated from the women by a chain-link fence. Hughes stopped no more than six feet from Chadwick. Hughes then came out of the house carrying a large kitchen knife down at her side, with the blade facing to the rear, and walked toward Chadwick. Upon arrival, officers saw Sharon Chadwick standing next to a car in a driveway. Officers responded to a call of a woman, Amy Hughes, acting erratically and hacking at a tree with a knife. For purposes of this article, I will revisit the Kisela case and stick to the facts cited within it. 1148 (2018)), to include the impact of video. In my last article, I modified the facts of a 2018 decision of the United States Supreme Court, Kisela v. This article originally appeared in The Chief’s Chronicle New York State Association of Chiefs of Police. Result of the Stop: Potential results of a stop include Warning, No Action, Citation for Infraction, Psychiatric Hold, Noncriminal/Car Transport, In-Field Cite and Release, Field Interview Card Completed or Custodial Arrest without Warrant.Editor’s note: This article builds on concepts introduced in Chief Ranalli’s previous article on the limitations of video evidence in police use of force investigations.Reason for Stop - Traffic Violation: When the reason for a stop is categorized as "traffic violation," then the officer also selects from these sub-categories: moving violation, equipment violation and non-moving violation.Reason for Stop - Reasonable Suspicion: When the reason for a stop is categorized as “reasonable suspicion of a person involved in criminal activity,” then the officer also selects from several sub-categories: Actions indicative of casing, Carrying suspicious object, Indicative of engaging in violent crime, Matched suspect description, Officer witness (officer witnessed commission of a crime), Other (other reasonable suspicion), or Witness identification (witness or victim identification of suspect at scene).Circumstance of the Stop: Was the stop a result of a call for service? If no, then the stop is deemed "officer initiated.".The officer reports their perception of people they stop in these categories: White, Hispanic/Latino, Black/African American, Asian, Middle Eastern or South Asian, or Pacific Islander. Race or Ethnicity (Perceived): These race and ethnicity categories are defined by RIPA.UC Davis Affiliation: Whether the person involved in the stop is affiliated with UC Davis as a student or employee, or else not affiliated with UC Davis.
Stops: A stop is any interaction between someone and a police officer, in which the officer detains the person or conducts a search - including pedestrian and vehicle stops.Please note that changes to RIPA categories are anticipated to take effect for law enforcement agencies throughout California in January 2022, which will be reflected in the data below too. Both UC Davis campuses (in Davis and in Sacramento) attract visitors from outside of the region, so drawing correlations to local communities may be difficult. The visualizations below are based on reports from the officer who made the stop, using categories of “perceived race or ethnicity” defined by RIPA standards. RIPA requires that California law enforcement agencies collect information from officers about the "perceived race or ethnicity" of the people they detain. We do not profile or discriminate against any individual or group because of their race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, gender, sexual orientation or disability. The UC Davis Police Department strives to enforce the law equally and fairly. The UC Davis Police Department reports officer perceptions of community member identities during police stops, per California’s Racial and Identity Profiling Act (RIPA).
