The formal minutes aren't ready to publish yet, but the bulk of the scheduled June 11 meeting was the very interesting presentation by Dr. Holly Joshi, Chief of the Department of Violence Prevention in the city of Oakland. She was so interesting that the NCPC has decided to share the video of her presentation from our hybrid Zoom meeting: Joshi DVP Presentation
Your secretary will eventually produce the formal minutes of the meeting, but the video covers over 90% of what was discussed. The entire video takes 1 hour and 8 minutes.

April 2026 (revised): https://tinyurl.com/bdd4545p
May 2026: https://tinyurl.com/pe4mtj8u
April’s revised report for 12Y, taken June 5, was almost twice the size of the original report taken on May 5 – 83 crime reports as opposed to 42. As usual, auto-related property crimes were the largest category, 49 reports. In fact, across the first 5 months of 2026, auto-related property crimes in 12Y ranged from 41 to 49 per month. The second and third largest groups of crimes in 12Y were general property crimes (burglaries and various other thefts) and quality of life crimes (largely vandalism). I’m relieved to see that there were only 2 crimes against the person in 12Y in April, and none in May. Unusually, the April revision had no cases where a single report charged multiple crimes at the same time and location.
Beat 13X as usual had much smaller numbers – 8 reports in the revised April report and 10 in the May report. Of the reports in 13X, 2 in April and 4 in May were general property crimes, and 3 in April and 1 in May were auto-related property crimes. In May, 12Y and 13X each had 1 case where a single incident had 2 charges at the same time and location.
12Y had one unexplained death report in April and 2 in May. 13X had no unexplained death reports in April and 1 in May.

April 2026 https://tinyurl.com/yvrun6h7
March was an active month. The first time I ran the March numbers, on April 6, 12Y had 56 entries and 13X had 3. When I ran them on May 5, 12Y had 109 and 13X had 7! It won’t surprise anyone that the bulk of the crimes in revised March were basic property and auto-related property crimes; 13X mostly had that type of crime as well but in much smaller numbers. March also had a dozen crimes against the person, and there were several reports of crimes involving firearms. March had multiple crime charges of various sorts, all on the same crime report number. The biggest one had 7 crime reports under the same report number; there were 2 crime reports with 4 charges each, and 3 crime reports with 2 charges each. The oddest one was the report charging both battery and vehicle theft, the others were more related.
April only had 41 crime reports in 12Y and 7 in 13X, mostly auto-related property crimes. There were no unexplained deaths in 12Y in either month, but one in each month in 13X.
