There has been no action from either the Santa Cruz City Council or its Public Safety Committee regarding any change in the “shoot to kill” and “withhold from the community the documentation” policies of Vogel. <\/span><\/p>\n

Nor has the Board of Supervisors made any attempt to rein in the Sheriff’s department or to investigate Smith’s killing. <\/span><\/p>\n

The D.A.’s office is still supposedly “investigating” the Arlt and Smith killings. <\/span><\/p>\n
