Soledad read notes submitted by Bill (panel member) outlining the outreach group’s decision: “One of the main decisions we made, was that we are not going to create a formal process for community engagement work on the panel right now. Instead, we agreed to put together a proposal template that anyone on the panel can use if they have an idea for an event the panel might support.” The template will capture contact information, event details, needs and whether a budget is required.

Upcoming events listed in the discussion included an invitation for panel members to join the Community Connectors in Residence on Thursday, Aug. 21; possible tabling opportunities at University of Colorado events on Aug. 26–27 (panel on a wait list); a Naropa tabling event on Sept. 3; and the annual What’s Up Boulder event at Scott Carpenter Park on Sept. 7, where organizers expect roughly 400 attendees and the panel will be included on an event scavenger list.

Sherry (independent police monitor) said the engagement subgroup had also raised budget questions and the group agreed to ask panel co-chairs to add a fuller budget conversation to a future full-panel agenda so members can learn whether there is a line item for engagement in the Independent Police Monitor budget. “Celena also offer to help us track down the budget for the independent police monitor, which, is where our engagement funds come from,” Bill’s notes said.

The monitor reminded members to schedule ride‑alongs if they had not done so in the last 12 months. Sherry told members ride‑along briefings (comparable to roll calls) are available at 6 a.m., 2 p.m. and 9 p.m. and are recommended but not strictly required before a ride‑along. She said completing ride‑alongs is a requirement to maintain voting eligibility as a panel member.

Sherry and staff also asked members to respond to a Doodle poll to schedule legal training; panel staff will correct one date in the poll (Sept. 22) because the chief-of-police Q3 meeting happens that afternoon.

Why it matters: outreach touches how the panel connects with community groups, potential complainants and students; clarifying the budget and a simple template is intended to lower administrative burden for members who want to engage.

Next steps: Bill will draft and share the proposal template; co-chairs will place the budget conversation on a future agenda; panel members should accept or decline calendar invitations to the listed events and complete the ride‑along scheduling and legal-training poll.

Sherry summarized findings and department dispositions for the closed files by case number, including recommendations and whether BPD agreed. Examples she cited:

- MI2024-084: Officers cleared people from private property; the monitor recommended unfounded findings for race profiling allegations against two officers, and the department agreed; one allegation that an officer searched a complainant’s possessions was sustained and will result in verbal counseling for the officer.

- MI2025-021: A complainant alleged stalking; BPD investigated, interviewed involved parties and the monitor recommended the allegation that Detective 1 failed to conduct a sufficient investigation be unfounded; the department agreed.

- MI2025-022, MI2025-025, MI2025-026, MI2025-027, MI2025-029, MI2025-031: Sherry summarized each case’s core facts, the monitored allegations, and recommended dispositions; the department agreed with the monitor’s recommendations in the listed items.

Sherry gave the panel a snapshot of caseload and classification numbers current as of Aug. 5: 42 open cases, of which 21 had been classified, 9 were pending monitor classification, and 12 were in preliminary investigation by the Professional Standards Unit (PSU). For the month of July Sherry classified six complaints: four as misconduct, one as a community inquiry and one as community feedback; she reported zero serious misconduct classifications for July.

Sherry also noted administrative outcomes where coaching or verbal counseling was recommended, and she identified two completed investigations that she deemed thorough and complete by PSU. She invited questions from panel members about reporting redactions and sealed materials; she told members sealed matters and redacted materials would be discussed in closed session where appropriate.

Why it matters: the monitor’s report provides an independent, panel-level accounting of complaint intake, dispositions and whether departmental outcomes align with monitor recommendations.

Next steps: Sherry will continue to track and report open caseload status; panel members asked about classification categories for sealed cases and Sherry said she would address that in closed session or when appropriate to the case confidentiality rules.

The panel’s independent police monitor, Sherry (independent police monitor), told members the panel will be able to review the evidence but that review is likely to take place only after the conclusion of the related criminal matter. “We are going to be able to review the the evidence, but it's going to be after the conclusion of the felony criminal trial or criminal matter. I don't know if it's going to go to trial or not,” Sherry said.

Why it matters: the case was flagged to the panel after a public report by the district attorney’s office. Panel review can result in findings or recommendations about policy or training; timing and access to evidence can be affected while a separate criminal prosecution proceeds.

At the meeting, a former panel co-chair, Victor King, had earlier asked whether the panel would look into the December incident. Panel members discussed procedural questions about whether the event qualified as a “critical incident” under the panel’s ordinance and the practical limits on evidence access while criminal charges are pending. Sherry said BPD does not control most of the evidence in this matter because criminal charges have been filed against one of the paramedics involved.

After that discussion the panel moved to a formal vote to accept the case for review. The roll-call vote recorded the following votes: Chico (panel member) — yes; Alan (panel member) — yes; Turner (panel member) — yes; Soledad (panel member) — yes; Milan (panel member) — yes; Lizzie (panel member) — yes; Jason (panel member) — yes.

The panel also voted to enter a closed session to discuss this and related matters; Soledad moved to go into closed session and Chico seconded the motion.

Next steps: with the panel having accepted the case for review, staff and the independent police monitor will schedule the formal review process. Sherry indicated the panel’s ability to review will be constrained until the conclusion of the criminal proceeding; the panel may choose to defer certain votes or take other scheduling steps if members request more time or if membership changes before a public review.

The panel announced no specific public timeline for the release of its review materials.

","The Boulder Police Oversight Panel voted unanimously to accept case EBT0001234 — a December 2024 in-custody death that involved CUPD and AMR paramedics — for panel review but the Independent Police Monitor said the evidence review will occur after resolution of the related criminal matter.","actionData","errors"]
