“Price said that she’s working with police to better track gun violence restraining orders and ensure that firearms are removed from the hands of dangerous people — something law enforcement across the state often struggles to do.”
Interesting. That makes it sound like they don’t even track orders to remove guns let alone enforce them.
Nevertheless, Cloird managed to secure a “senior program specialist” job title and salary of $115,502. He is paid $10,500 a year more than another new hire working in his same unit, even though that person has a background in social work and a master’s degree, records show. Cloird lacks a four-year college degree listed as a qualification for the position he filled, but the county allows applicants to substitute real-world experience in the place of education.

It also found Cloird drew the attention of the FBI in 2015 amid allegations that he extorted Richmond business owners for tens of thousands of dollars, though no criminal charges were ever filed.

Oakland really needs a strong, experienced mayor but of course the people will not vote for one…
This could be powerful and good for communities if they take a stance promoting public safety.
