A local professor calls Hillside Church minister’s use of the pulpit (albeit it a virtual one) opportunistic, insensitive and alarming.

Keith Crosby, the pastor of Hillside Church in San Jose, urges Santa Clara County to ease public health rules on places of worship.

Councilman Lan Diep, who represents the project area, said extending Charcot Avenue over I-880 is essential for the city’s growth.

More than a week has passed since SJPD responded to protests with alarming force. How many people were hurt in the fray is still unclear.

San Jose isn’t alone in having a police force shirk the burden of masking up. NYPD has come under fire for the same reason.

Dozens of community members phoned in to express their anger with city leaders and demand that they slash funding to SJPD.

When stakeholders can more easily participate in public meetings, governments get better results and our collective trust in institutions grows.

The chief also pledged to prevent cops fired for misconduct from being hired elsewhere, and affirmed his own willingness to do better.

The San Jose Police Department has a roughly $450 million budget, the vast majority of which (about $442 million) covers personnel costs.

The council also wants to hear from the top brass about whether the city could simply ban the use of rubber bullets and beanbag rounds.

We caught up with IPA Shivaun Nurre to learn more about her oversight powers and how the public can use them to hold cops accountable.

While weed stores in some parts of the U.S. have been hard hit by looting this week, only two of San Jose’s 16 dispensaries reported break-ins.

The main difference between the city’s law and the county’s is that San Jose also requires masks for anyone standing in line at the store. 

After his first brush with the law, the Assembly hopeful said he’s even more motivated to bring “deep reform of our policing” to Sacramento. 

At least that’s the verdict from city officials, who say a mea culpa that appeared to be from the infamous protester-taunting cop is fake. 

San Jose deploys curfews, tear gas and rubber bullets to quell protests. Perhaps it's time for a fundamental rethink of American policing.
