Wow, that’s a terrible article on a big issue in Santa Rosa. Here’s a better article:

BTW, IMHO this proposed oversight panel is a good start, but it has no teeth and will ultimately be worthless. It would not be able to subpoena or indict. If the proposed panel made a recommendation to the DA that an officer be charged, it’s likely (with our current cast of players) that it would be utterly ignored. DA Jill Ravitch actually campaigned for her “bestie” Sheriff Steve Freitas, and has made it abundantly clear she will do nothing to go against him in any way.

We need an independent oversight body with teeth. To get it, we’re going to have to get that proposal on a local ballot. That’s going to be a hard sell, even though we need it desperately.
