Jan Scully pay lip-service to "limited" review of officer-involved shootings

The shocking 2012-13 surge in shootings and in-custody deaths at the hands of Sacramento County Law Enforcement – 13 shootings in the first eight months of the year, eight of which were fatal, and many against unarmed Sac County residents – began after DA Jan Scully disbanded her office's officer-involved shootings protocol.

While Scully made clear that she still has no plans to "conduct a full, separate investigation, either at the shooting sites or in cases of in-custody deaths," she said that in "special circumstances," an investigator will be available "by telephone" to "consider" a response.
