Episode Summary: On February 13th I attended a hearing entitled Problems with Immigration and Customs Enforcement Interrogation, Detention and Removal Proceedings. The hearing was to address concerns regarding American citizens and permanent residents who might be inappropriately detained and even deported by ICE officials. What was inadvertently emphasized was the number of individuals with mental disabilities, some immigrants and some not, who are getting caught in enforcement efforts and without appropriate supports are having very negative outcomes while in ICE custody.

The conference generally provides information about the latest legislative issues pending at the federal and state levels, as well as compliance and regulatory issues that affect how organizations conduct day-to-day HR business. On their list of issues this year was the ADA Restoration Act. The disability community has very clearly stated its perspective, as has the Chamber of Commerce and SHRM.

Episode Summary: In May 2007, I blogged about an interesting article about suicide bombers with disabilities. In July, I turned it into a podcast discussing the assertion by an Afghani doctor that 90% of suicide bombers have a disability. NPR covered this issue in October and just this month, it made front page news again when two women with disabilities blew up a market in Iraq. Is this some terrible trend and what does this mean for people with disabilities in Iraq and Afghanistan?

    Day in Washington Podcast #20 (Law Enforcement and Disability – The Bigger Picture of the “Wheelchair Dumping” Controversy) Feb 19, 2008
    Show notes

    Day in Washington- The Disability Policy Podcast explores and discusses various aspects of disability policy. Each episode will cover a specific issue within disability, and/or a disability-related news article. These 5-10 minute podcasts offer an easy to understand introduction to disability policy and resources for those interested in further study. You can find the text of each podcast in the comments. If you have difficulty downloading the podcast, please right-click and save it to your computer for playback. Episode Summary: On February 12th a story was running across the AP wires about how Charlette Marshall-Jones, of the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office, tipped Brian Sterner out of his wheelchair and searched him on the floor. What happened was a terrible event. Perhaps not so publicized yet just as heinous, if not more so is what happened to Bill Trask, a developmentally disabled man who, after his time in the local jail has been left so traumatized that he is no longer independent at all. The same week, Jason Swift, a man with a mental health condition who was in crisis, was shot dead by law enforcement officers who responded with force rather than make attempts to de-escalate the situation and reassure the terrified man. His mother had called 911 for assistance in getting her son taken to a nearby psychiatric facility. The lack of knowledge of disability and the callous disregard for people with disabilities is more than just a single event of wheelchair dumping and as a community we should be more than just outraged because of a single incident. We should be advocating for a broad solution to deal with what is a pervasive, and (in the case of Jason Swift and many other individuals with mental illness) potentially life-threatening problem.

Jason Swift Story They Didn't Need to Kill Him From the Providence Journal. Bill Sterner Story Police Suspended for Wheelchair Dumping From Associated Press on Google News Washington State Bill S.B. 5473 - Requiring the criminal justice training commission to train officers on interacting with developmentally disabled and mentally ill persons. - Never Funded Criminal Justice/Mental Health - Consensus Project The Criminal Justice/Mental Health Consensus Project, is a national effort to help local, state, and federal policymakers and criminal justice and mental health professionals improve the response to people with mental illnesses who come into contact with the criminal justice system. Memphis Plan - In the late 1980s, the Memphis Police Department created its Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) concept. It involved a 40 hour training program for selected officers. The program was presented by a blend of professionals involved with the mentally ill community and police experts in verbalization, confrontational diffusing techniques, and subject control and restraint techniques. It has not eliminated all adverse consequences in the Memphis police encounters with emotionally disturbed persons, but the agency has significantly decreased this outcome and the Memphis Plan has been the model upon which many other law enforcement officers have based their own "mental illness" response and intervention programs.
