It has never recommended charges against an officer who shot and killed an unarmed person. CalMatters originally looked at this program after its first year, and returned to investigate the program in its fifth.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s what we found:\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<h2>Investigations take longer<\/h2>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Attorney General Rob Bonta originally pledged to close shooting investigations within one year. That still hasn\u2019t happened.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>The average investigation takes nearly two years and five months. Eight investigations, including a cluster of cases in rural Northern California, stretched past three years.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>The Department of Justice has argued that it is underfunded. The police shooting program got just $13 million annually, despite asking for $26 million. On its first investigation, program investigators were already complaining that they were undermanned.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<h2>Some exceed statutes of limitations<\/h2>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>When anyone is accused of a crime, police officer or not, the state has a set limit of time to file charges. For 92% of crimes in California, that time limit is three years. For certain crimes, like murder, there is no statute of limitations.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>When the Department of Justice investigations stretch past three years, that means that an officer can\u2019t be charged with certain crimes potentially involved in the case &#8211; crimes that have previously been leveled at officers who shot and killed people. Some of the crimes that the Justice Department can\u2019t charge after three years include involuntary manslaughter and aggravated assault.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<h2>Blowing past decertification deadline<\/h2>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>One year after Califoirnia established its police shooting investigation program, the Legislature passed a law that would allow police departments to decertify officers for serious misconduct, stripping their license to work in law enforcement.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>But decertification has a time limit, too: three years.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>So when investigations stretch past three years, the Department of Justice can no longer recommend any officer lose their certification.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/sandiegorelocationnews.com\/index.php\/2026\/06\/23\/gavin-newsoms-office-mandate-breaks-trust-with-california-state-workers-opinion\/\">Gavin Newsom\u2019s office mandate breaks trust with California state workers | Opinion<\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>The certification program is run by a state agency, the California Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training, or POST. POST told us that it can start investigations on its own if an officer is accused of serious misconduct.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<h2>Was local accountability better?<\/h2>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Before the police shooting investigation program went into effect, many law enforcement leaders and district attorneys predictably opposed it.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>But some liberal, reform-minded prosecutors also had their doubts about its potential. Specifically, they worried that taking the investigations out of the hands of locals would dilute the pressure that people could put on their district attorney.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Now, the cases go to Sacramento. A county district attorney never has to answer for the decision to charge or not charge a police officer.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>\u201cLocal concern, local protests, local interest is felt by local prosecutors,\u201d said Cristine Soto DeBerry, who created a unit investigating police officers at the San Francisco District Attorney\u2019s Office, where she was chief of staff.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<h2>Local investigators back off<\/h2>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Local police and sheriff\u2019s departments are still supposed to do their own investigations into police shootings.
