And what I can say is there is an association with the two folks um yesterday and um TDA. I hesitated to even share this information initially because I'm very aware of the historic um injustice of victim blaming um oftent times portrayed by law enforcement including this very agency that I've represented so proudly for so many years. And historically we have um not um been uh quick to disclose the potential criminal history of others. But I felt it was imperative because I was asked yesterday in the news conference what information we have. This is information we have. Um this in no way draws a through line to the actions or the behaviors that occurred yesterday. I want to speak for just a moment specifically to my Latino community. It it saddens it saddens me that we even have to qualify um these remarks because I understand or at least have attempted to understand through your voices your concern, your fear, your anger. Uh this information uh in no way is meant to to disparage or to condone or support or agree with any of the actions that occurred yesterday. But it is important that we stay committed to the rule of law, that we stay committed to the facts, that we stay um a trustworthy and legitimate uh police department for all of Portlanders.
