Advisory: Los Angeles County Sheriff Deputies to be equipped with Nalxon, to combat opioid overdoses.

Great story from KPCC:

http://www.scpr.org/news/2017/06/07/72625/la-sheriff-equips-deputies-to-stop-opioid-ods/

LA Sheriff's Commander Judy Gerhardt, whose nephew died of an opioid overdose in Dec. 2016, helped spearhead the department's plan to equip deputies with naloxone.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department is poised to become one of the largest law enforcement agencies in the country to equip its patrol deputies with naloxone, a drug that can stop an opioid overdose.

The agency is expected to hand out naloxone nasal spray kits to 600 deputies this week, with an eye toward getting the drug to more than 3,000 of its street cops by the end of the year, according to Commander Judy Gerhardt.

It was Gerhardt who spearheaded the department’s initiative after the growing opioid epidemic touched her personally.

"Six months ago, my 23-year-old nephew passed away from an opioid overdose," Gerhardt told KPCC. "I’ve watched firsthand the devastation."

Her nephew, Maxwell Baker, died Dec. 28 at his Boston area home. Much of the epidemic has been concentrated in New England states, but health and law enforcement officials fear the problem may soon be just as bad in Southern California.

(In April, NPR interviewed Baker’s father and Gerhardt’s brother – a physician – about how to address the nation’s opioid problem.)

Coincidentally, Gerhardt’s daughter already was working on the issue. Unbeknownst to Gerhardt, Sheriff Jim McDonnell had asked her daughter, who works as a civilian in his office, to research naloxone.

"Life works in mysterious ways," Gerhardt said.

When Gerhardt told McDonnell about her nephew’s death and desire to prevent more, the sheriff gave her the green light to work on a plan to get naloxone into the hands of deputies.

"That’s when I realized we really had a chance to make a difference," she said.

Naloxone is a medication that reverses the respiratory depression resulting from an opiate overdose caused by drugs like heroin, oxycodone and methadone, according to the Drug Policy Alliance. After a simple training, naloxone can be safely administered by laypeople, including police officers and family members. The drug is delivered by injection or with a nasal spray.

Until 2015, it was available only by prescription from a medical provider or from a handful of distribution programs. Now, many pharmacies carry it as an over-the-counter drug thanks to a law passed by the California legislature and signed by Governor Brown.

Under the sheriff’s plan, deputies will carry Narcan in their patrol cars. Narcan is the brand name for a device that delivers naloxone through a nasal spray. The first two-dose kits will go to deputies in places where OD's are more likely – community colleges, county parks, East L.A. and Santa Clarita, where Henry Mayo Hospital reported 8 opioid OD’s in one recent 24-hour-period, Gerhardt said.

The kits cost about $75 apiece. The money is coming from a state grant distributed through the county health department.

No longer will deputies have to wait for paramedics as they watch someone struggle for life in the midst of an opioid overdose.

"I don’t want my nephew’s death to be in vain," said Gerhardt.

"Maybe those people who are struggling with the disease of addiction can live another day to at least have the choice to seek treatment and get help" thanks to a deputy who carries naloxone, she said.

Other law enforcement agencies in California already carry naloxone, including the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department. Its deputies started carrying the spray back in 2014.

The LAPD is expected to start handing out naloxone to about 100 officers who deal directly with homeless people on Skid Row and elsewhere in a smaller pilot program later this summer.

Community: Two hikers descend from Switzer Falls onto Sloan Saddle, Altadena Mountain Rescue Team finds hikers & leads to safety.

Last night at 7:55pm Altadena Mountain Rescue Team was called for the search for two hikers in the area of Switzer Falls, in the Angeles National Forest. Two hikers had called the Altadena Sheriff's Station and said they were on a three hour hike and become lost. The hikers, 23 y/o male residing in West Hills and 24 y/o male residing in Winnetka were able to send a text message with their location. Altadena rescue team members plotted the hikers location on a mapped the hikers appeared to be on Tom Sloan Saddle, approximately 3/4 of a mile off the Mt. Lowe Fire Road. The hikers had run out of water and becoming cold as nightfall set. We had two teams of rescuers drive as far as they could on the rough mountain road, and then set off hiking almost a mile on the ridge-line to reach the hikers. The pair was relieved to see the rescuers lights getting closer, but it took over an hour to reach them.
When rescuers reached the hikers they said they were part of a four person hiking group, and had become separated from their two friends they were hiking with, and the location of the friends was not known. We had additional rescuers start searching for the additional hikers believed to be lost.
The two hikers were given water, and were able to hike out to the rescue vehicles on their own. The rescued hiker were medically cleared by rescue team members and were driven to Altadena Sheriff’s Station. Within thirty minutes of locating the first two hikers, cell phone contact was made the the remaining two hikers, 25 y/o male and 20 y/o female both residing in El Monte. The second pair of hikers were not lost and able to hike out of Switzer Falls on their own.
Thankfully none of the hikers were injured. They did have small packs with flashlights and equipment with them, but the temperature quickly dipped into the 50's after it became dark.

Neighborhood watch programs in Altadena.

Community: Neighborhood watch programs in Altadena.

Neighborhood Watch vs Association
You have probably seen a Neighborhood Watch street sign , notifying visitors that suspicious people and activities are reported to law enforcement. The term refers to a nationwide crime prevention initiative where citizen volunteers actively patrol their neighborhood for illegal activity.
The program, managed nationally by the National Sheriffs’ Association with help from the Department of Justice and local law enforcement, focuses on “eyes-and-ears” training for neighborhoods. Plus, signs posted around the neighborhood help deter would-be criminals. Communities involved in these programs work with our Sheriff's Stations, but we do not regulate or manage the program. We are there to provide assistance and can educate on how to recognize criminal activity, providing clear information to our station over the phone, and crime trends.
Neighborhood watch programs are created mainly around the concept of getting to know one’s neighbors. This helps in sharing information and become better equipped to look for signs of suspicious activity. They vary from one community to the next, but typically use one of two main approaches:
Opportunity Reduction: Use of observation to spot and eliminate potential opportunities for criminal activity and restore sense of community ownership
Social Problems: Use of educational programs and other activities to raise awareness and target the root causes of crime (such as drug awareness programs, tutoring, sports clubs, etc.)
For details on starting a program in your community, visit the National Sheriffs’ Association’s USAonwatch.org website.
Interactions with Law Enforcement
Neighborhood Watch programs typically have a leader or point of contact person who recruits volunteers; maintains a neighborhood map with addresses and landmarks; holds meetings; maintains files; and serves as the liaison with the Sheriff's Department. Going beyond being the eyes and ears of the community, however, can lead to conflicts and potentially lawsuits (stopping and questioning someone against their will, for example, can be considered false arrest). Indeed, taking someone into custody, even for just a moment, can be considered false imprisonment. Please call our station to report any criminal or suspicious activity, (626) 798-1131. Therefore, volunteers should not act as police and are limited to observing and reporting criminal activity or suspicious behavior.
Volunteers in neighborhoods known for violent crime or gang activity are often advised to keep a low profile and report incidents anonymously. Keeping a log of vehicles and persons can be helpful, but since neighborhood watch volunteers often are the first witnesses to a crime, they may be asked to testify in court.
Neighborhood watch programs are prevalent in the U.S. and, if implemented properly, can be a valuable tool in crime prevention.
A neighborhood association is a group of residents or property owners who advocate for or organize activities within a neighborhood. An association may have elected leaders and voluntary dues.
The term neighborhood association is sometimes incorrectly used instead of homeowners association (HOA). But neighborhood associations are not homeowners associations (HOA). An HOA is a group of property owners with the legal authority to enforce rules and regulations that focus on restrictions and building and safety issues. On the other hand, a neighborhood association is a group of neighbors and business owners who work together for changes and improvements such as neighborhood safety, beautification and social activities. They reinforce rules and regulations through education, peer pressure and by looking out for each other.

Community: Thefts from unlock vehicles in Altadena
 
 
Thefts from unlocked vehicles have continued in Altadena, it is not an epidemic however it is horrible if your car has items stolen from it. Please make sure that you are remove all valuable items from your vehicle. Most of these crimes could be avoided if everyone locked their car doors and keeps valuables out of sight. Unfortunately it is common to see GPS units, wallets, purses even cash in plain sight inside a vehicle, please help us protect your property.
You want to make your car less appealing to the thief, even hiding valuable items under a towel or jacket does not prevent someone from wanting to go inside your vehicle. By far it is best to lock items in your trunk or remove them entirely. 

Don’t have the time to wait for a deputy to show up to your house and take a report?

https://judiciary.house.gov/hearing/challenges-facing-law-enforcement-21st-century/



***************************************************************************


On Wednesday, May 17, 2017, Los Angeles County Sheriff Jim McDonnell will testify in Washington D.C. before the House of Representatives Judiciary Committee on the “Challenges Law Enforcement Faces in the 21st Century”.

Sheriff McDonnell is representing the Major County Sheriff’s Association (MCSA) and the National Sheriff’s Association (NSA) in a joint effort to share the complex challenges that sheriff's departments around the nation are facing today.  These challenges include the fight against emerging crimes such as homegrown violent extremism, cyber terrorism and the Opioid and Heroin epidemic.  Sheriff McDonnell is expected to emphasize the growing prevalence of mental illness, not only in Los Angeles County but across the nation and the need for federal, state and local partnerships to focus on diversion, treatment options and investment in jail systems that can provide constitutional care of an exploding population of individuals suffering from mental illness.  One-Third of the inmate population in the Los Angeles County Jails suffers from mental illness. Seventy percent (70%) of the inmates processed into our jails report a medical or mental illness.

The MCSA and the NSA collectively represent more than 100 million Americans who are served by Sheriff's Departments.   Sheriff McDonnell is joined by Police Chief Alonzo Thompson of Spartanburg, South Carolina; Chief Art Acevedo of Houston, Texas; and Mr. Chuck Canterbury who is the National President of the Fraternal Order of Police.

Sheriff McDonnell will be testifying Wednesday, May 17, 2017 at 10:00 A.M. EST/ 7:00 A.M. PST in Washington D.C. at the House of Representatives Judiciary Committee.
