Palo Alto Independent Police Auditor,
Attorney Michael Gennaco, aided the Palo Alto Police Department and Attorney Don Larkin's cover up of the falsified videos and taser gun activation data. |

Mr. Gennaco was first informed that Temores' MAV video had been edited on May 13, 2008 approximately two weeks after I had first viewed the video. At this time I had not viewed Burger's MAV video or the Taser videos because they had not been provided. Thus my complaint was about Temores' MAV video not the Taser Videos. In Mr. Gennao's official report he conspicuously leaves out my complaint abut the Temores' MAV video being edited and falsified.
I first learned of the watermark on the MAV videos approximately March of 2009. I emailed Mr. Gennaco on April 19, 2009 and asked him why he, like the Santa Clara District Attorney and Crime Lab, had not analyzed the watermark. Mr. Gennaco responded on April 27, 2009 by stating that he could not provide much detail regarding his review of the incident, yet Mr. Gennaco had already completed his thorough analysis using independent experts and submitted it to the City of Palo Alto on April 13, 2009. Mr. Gennaco intentionally lied to me. |

On August 5, 2008 I informed Mr. Gennaco that the Palo Alto Police had violated Palo Alto Use of Force Policy 308.96 by not providing the Taser Guns Activation reports with the original police report. Mr. Gennaco refused to investigate at that time, but would look into it after current proceeding had been resolved. Mr. Gennaco never addressed the blatant violation and left it out of his official report.
In Mr. Gennaco's official report regarding my incident, he states the Taser had no effect on me. That is a bold face lie. Officer Burger shocked me for a minimum of 20 seconds and probably closer to 30 seconds during the incident. Click here for further evidence on this false statement made by attorney Michael Gennaco. In Mr. Gennaco's March 7, 2010 report, he notes in another Taser incident that the Palo Alto Police had problems downloading the taser data and getting an accurate time stamp on it. It appears that the cover-ups continue, for the individual was subjected to two taser guns and went into seizures. |
Mr. Gennaco asserted in his official report regarding my incident that the videos comported with the account of the incident documented in the written reports. Tjhat is another false statement made by Mr. Gennaco, for Officer Wagner's statement differs significantly from that in the videos and both Officers Temores and Burger make statements during the Pre-Trial Examination that contradicts the videos and taser gun activation data. In fact based upon Ofc. Wagner's statement in the police report that I went down to the ground two separate times getting up off the ground in between and Ofc. Temores testifying under oath to the same, both Officers Wagner and Temores have essentially testified and verified that the video footage of me getting up off the ground has been removed from Temores' MAV video.
Lastly, Mr. Gennaco asserted in his official report that the "gaps" in the video tape of the taser videos was the result of the officers activating and deactivating the taser guns while switching modes. First, this act of switching modes would make it impossible for officers to comply with the Use of Force Policy 308.94 which states that the audio/video function shall be activated at all times that the taser is pulled from the holster. Furthermore, Temores' own MAV video verifies that Burger's Taser Camera should be recording audio/video footage when in fact it is not according to the PAPD. |
At the above moment in time electricity is being discharged through Officer Burger's Taser Gun verified by the illuminated Taser Wire. A Taser Camera records at all times that the Taser Gun's safety switch is in the "Armed" position, thus the Taser Camera Records at all times that electricity is being discharged. Thus, Burger's Taser Camera should be recording audio/video footage during the above moment and time as recorded on Temores' MAV video.
Mr. Gennaco's analysis is contradicted by Temores' MAV video and the Palo Alto Use of Force Policy. Mr. Gennaco has submitted a fraudulent report to the City of Palo Alto in order to conceal the crimes of the Palo Alto Police. MORE INFORMATION, CLICK HERE: TASER INTERNATIONAL AND ANDREW HINZ
I think it completely improbable that the Palo Alto Police were capable of editing and tampering with the Data Ports inside the taser guns prior to Mr. Gennaco analyzing the evidence during the months of April and May. Given that three separate Santa Clara County Crime Lab Analysts failed to document the activation data in their official reports corroborates this assertion. As such I believe that Mr. Gennaco viewed or new that the activation data retained on the Data Ports completely contradicted the edited videos. Thus, there was and is no way that Mr. Gennaco does not know that the videos have been falsified. To this day, Mr. Gennaco refuses to address my complaint, my allegations and my evidence.
