New/trigger warning: I obtained video of an EGPD death in custody from last year
An unarmed man in a mental health crisis was kept in a constraint device and spit hood for 10 minutes until he lost his pulse
It doesn’t fall under state transparency laws

As part of national corporate cuts, McClatchy yesterday laid off 12 SacBee journalists including 5 @SacBeeGuild members.
This is by far the worst round of layoffs I’ve seen at the Bee since I was hired in Oct 2018.
Absolutely devastating and it’s the public who will suffer most
These are the journalists and the coverage communities are now left without, as told by the publications’ workers: newsguild.org/mcclatchy-laid…

Four homeless moms fear they’ll be sleeping outside due to a change to the city motel shelter program.
They’re staying put, despite being told to leave.
The new program will require payment for some, and have a max stay of 6 months
