SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A local privacy rights coalition Wednesday heralded the San Diego City Council's consideration of ordinances regulating the use, acquisition and funding of surveillance technology and establishing a Privacy Advisory Board.The council voted unanimously Tuesday to adopt both ordinances, which are intended to increase accountability within city government and law enforcement."My council colleagues joined me in taking the necessary next step to protect the civil rights and civil liberties of all San Diegans," City Councilwoman Monica Montgomery Steppe said.RELATED: Cameras in San Diego's controversial Smart Streetlights turned off — for now"The city of San Diego has a chance to lead here, and I look forward to the continuous collaboration with community organizations, my colleagues on the council and our city departments to ensure that we do."The movement towards an advisory board "started because our government and public officials failed us," said Deputy Public Defender Genevieve Jones-Wright, a member of The Transparent and Responsible Use of Surveillance Technology SD Coalition.Montgomery Steppe and supporters of the two proposed ordinances "changed the direction in which surveillance in San Diego was going -- even in the face of opposition by the very officials who led us into the quagmire," Jones-Wright said.Lilly Irani, an associate professor of communication and science studies at UC San Diego, said that for decades, technology companies "have been given free reign to design and deploy with little democratic oversight. People are saying that democracy also applies to technology that affects your life, not just to budgets or to who you elect."Seth Hall, of TechLead San Diego, said the council's actions will do more to protect the public from the harm of mass surveillance."With the passage of these ordinances, our leaders and our citizens are in unison demanding that the future of mass surveillance be very different from the past," Hall said.The surveillance ordinance will require transparency, accountability and oversight for all surveillance technology proposals and ensures the public can learn about the civil rights and civil liberties impact of surveillance technology before it is acquired by the city.If acquired, the use of surveillance technology must be re-examined each year to ensure any benefits outweigh the potential civil liberties and civil rights costs.The Privacy Advisory Board will provide residents with a public process to evaluate how the city monitors its residents. The creation of such a process is intended to allow the city to respond appropriately to concerns about civil liberties and privacy during a time of rapidly evolving technology.Montgomery Steppe said these ordinances will add the oversight required to build and maintain public trust.San Diego Police Department Chief David Nisleit raised concerns about the way the ordinances were written. He said while he supported oversight, the laws were "drafted with little to no input from law enforcement, victim advocacy groups" and other parties.Nisleit urged a more cautious, measured approach to the ordinances.Tuesday was the first reading. Both ordinances are subject to additional discussion before a second reading later this year or early in 2021. 3305

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A towering palm tree and the tree trimmer strapped to it came toppling down inside the lobby area at a University City-area hotel Thursday. The tree was being cut down at Embassy Suites by Hilton San Diego-La Jolla, 4550 La Jolla Village Drive, when it struck a person shortly before 11 a.m., according to police and the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department. San Diego Police told 10News the injured man was a tree trimmer. Medics took the victim, to Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla. Joe Jaha, a supervisor at Arbor West Tree Surgeons, says a 3-man crew was at the hotel to take down three large palms in the lobby. He says the tree trimmer was 30 feet up the final, 40-foot palm. He had taken off the top and was trying to bring it down when the tree uprooted, with the tree and tree trimmer crashing to the ground. The tree trimmer, a man in his 30s, suffered a broken leg and arm."It had highly unusual, shallow roots, which we couldn't detect until it was too late. OSHA arrived and said we were in total compliance. It was a freak accident," said Jaha.The Hilton sent 10News the following statement: 1131

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - Federal authorities said today that a woman who fled federal custody and ran into a crowd of protesters was later taken to a hospital after she became distressed during the confrontation.The incident occurred Saturday in the 220 block of West C Street near the gate into the Western Region Detention Center. The woman's escape and the following confrontation between federal agents and protesters was captured on video and widely shared on social media, garnering over 15,000 views as of Monday.According to the San Diego office of the FBI, the woman -- who was arrested on suspicion of dealing methamphetamine, heroin, and fentanyl -- opened the rear passenger door of an unmarked car while handcuffed.She then allegedly ran into a nearby crowd that was protesting police brutality. Agents pursued the woman and regained custody, while the crowd of protesters surrounded the agents and the woman, the FBI reported.Protesters then confronted the two agents who pursued the woman, officials said. Video recording shows a crowd of around 50 protesters attempting to separate the woman from the FBI agents by pulling at her and the agents, until the woman becomes distressed and suffers a seizure.Protesters then encircled the woman and blocked the agents from her. A member of the protesting group designated as a medic then assists the woman, according to the video.The two agents, who wore civilian clothes, walked back to their car near the San Diego jail and called for medical assistance, the federal authorities reported.Paramedics responded to the scene along with a large police presence, which separated protesters from the woman. She was then taken to a local hospital, the FBI said.According to federal investigators, the woman's initial arrest was not related to the nearby protest. She had been arrested by the San DiegoCounty Sheriff's Department on suspicion of conspiracy to distribute meth, heroin and fentanyl to a 2019 federal gang and narcotics case. The FBI has opened an investigation into the incident. 2049

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A San Diego businesswoman pleaded guilty Wednesday to conspiracy, securities fraud and obstruction of justice charges for taking hundreds of millions of dollars in investor funds intended as loans for liquor licenses and funneling the money into her companies and for personal purchases.Gina Champion-Cain, founder and former CEO of American National Investments, was charged by the Securities and Exchange Commission last summer with taking millions from investors and telling them the money would be used to support loans for people seeking California liquor licenses. Instead, she used the money for personal expenses, to fund her other businesses or to pay back other investors, prosecutors said.Champion-Cain faces a maximum possible term of 15 years in prison.RELATED: Several popular San Diego restaurants to close after CEO accused in 0 million fraud schemeMore than 0 million from more than 100 investors went into the scheme between 2012 and 2019, according to the plea agreement. Prosecutors said at least one financial institution that invested lost more than million, and that the loss to all investors ranges from between million to 0 million.According to the plea agreement, Champion-Cain used at least million in investor funds to meet expenses at her businesses. In addition, funds were used to pay for residences in Mission Beach and Rancho Mirage, at least million to pay her own salary at American National Investments, and hundreds of thousands of dollars was spent on sporting events, automobiles, credit card bills, jewelry and more.The plea agreement states that the lending program investors were putting funds into "was completely fictitious" and that many of the supposed liquor license applicants had not sought loans through Champion-Cain. Instead, she created fake lists with applicant names pulled from the Department of Alcohol Beverage Control website, according to the plea agreement. 1967

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A long-planned but controversial religious tourism and conference center project in Mission Valley received final approval today from the San Diego City Council.Construction of the 1 million Legacy International Project will be funded by televangelist Morris Cerullo.Slated for the 18-acre site of the former Mission Valley Resort, the project encompasses five buildings, including a new 127-room hotel and restaurant. It will also have a replica of Jerusalem's Wailing Wall and a domed theater featuring biblical films.At a hearing two weeks ago, opponents expressed concerns over the potential for increased traffic in an already congested area.Cerullo's organization plans to add one lane in each direction on Hotel Circle South. Under a permit condition, they plan to maintain a count of vehicles that enter the facility's driveway over the first three years.On its second reading, the item was passed without comment on a 7-2 vote, with Georgette Gomez and Chris Ward dissenting.The council also approved an amendment to council policy that will move up the timeline for receiving ballot submissions from the public.The change does not affect citizens initiatives or referendums that go through the signature collection process.According to City Clerk Elizabeth Maland, the amendment will provide a little more clarity to the public about the process. She said receiving the measures earlier will give city officials more time to provide legal review and analysis, along with help in drafting language.The policy change will also affect submissions from city officials and departments or other public agencies. 1644
