A SAN DIEGO COUNTY SUPERVISOR IS CALLING FOR MAJOR CHANGES TO HOW THE COUNTY OVERSEES LAW ENFORCEMENT AND YOUTH DETENTION FACILITIES.

KPBS HEALTH REPORTER HEIDI DeMARCO SAYS THE PROPOSAL IS AIMED AT STRENGTHENING TRANSPARENCY, ACCOUNTABILITY AND DIGNITY IN COUNTY DETENTION FACILITIES.

SUPERVISOR MONICA MONTGOMERY STEP SAYS IT RECENTLY CIRCULATED MEMO FROM THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT REFLECTS LONG-STANDING CHALLENGES IN THE COUNTY'S JUSTICE SYSTEM.

>> WE HAVE LONG KNOWN THAT OUR LAW ENFORCEMENT SYSTEMS, WHILE FILLED WITH INDIVIDUALS THAT SERVED WITH INTEGRITY, HAVE DEEP INSTITUTIONAL CHALLENGES ACCEPTING NECESSARY CHANGE.

>> Reporter: SHE SAYS REFORM IS NOT JUST ABOUT SAFETY INSIDE FACILITIES.

>> THERE'S NO DENYING THE REALITY THAT PEOPLE ARCERATED IN OUR JAILS ARE STILL MEMBERS OF OUR COMMUNITY, PARTICULARLY AS THEY AWAIT TRIAL.

THEY'RE NOT JUST STATISTICS.

THEY ARE NOT DISPOSABLE.

AND THEY ARE NOT BEYOND THE REACH OF JUSTICE OR COMPASSION.

THEY ARE SONS AND DAUGHTERS, NEIGHBORS AND FRIENDS, DESERVING BASIC DIGNITY AND THE FULL PROTECTION OF THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS.

>> Reporter: THE REFORM CALLS FOR EXPANDING THE CITIZEN'S LAW ENFORCEMENT REVIEW BOARD'S AUTHORITY TO NOT ONLY INVESTIGATE DEPUTIES BUT MEDICAL STAFF IN CASE OF IN CUSTODY DEATHS.

BUT SHE SAYS THE MOST URGENT CHANGES ARE NEEDED IN THE JUVENILE SYSTEM, STARTING WITH THE TWO-YEAR PLAN TO PHASE OUT THE USE OF PEPPER SPRAY.

>> NO CHILD SHOULD BE SPRAYED WITH CHEMICAL AGENTS IN THE NAME OF DISCIPLINE OR CONTROL.

>> Reporter: A NATIONAL SURVEY SHOWS TWO THIRDS OF STATES ALREADY BAN PEPPER SPRAY ON DETAINED YOUTH.

CALIFORNIA IS JUST ONE OF SIX STATES WHERE PROBATION OFFICERS ARE STILL ALLOWED TO CARRY IT.

THE PROPOSAL ALSO SEEKS TO REDUCE THE USE OF SOLITARY CONFINEMENT, WHICH RESEARCH SHOWS CAN CAUSE LASTING PSYCHOLOGICAL HARM AND RAISE THE RISK OF SUICIDE AMONG YOUTH.

>> IF WE CANNOT COMMIT TO BUILDING SYSTEMS THAT SUPPORT YOUTH DEVELOPMENT, RATHER THAN DEEPEN THEIR TRAUMA, THEN WHAT ARE WE DOING?

>> Reporter: THE REFORM ALSO CALLS FOR TRAUMA-INFORMED DE-ESCALATION TRAINING, FOR ALL PROBATION OFFICERS.

AND SUB COMMITTEE TO REVIEW JUVENILE FACILITIES WHICH WOULD INCLUDE MONTGOMERY STEP AND SUPERVISOR AND EXPANDED PARTNERSHIPS WITH NATIONAL JUVENILE JUSTICE EXPERTS.

>> REAL PUBLIC SAFETY IS MAKING SURE THAT EVERY PERSON IN OUR CUSTODY HAS ACCESS TO MEDICAL CARE, TO MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES, TO TREATMENT, NOT BECAUSE WE'RE BEING GENEROUS BUT BECAUSE WE ARE BEING JUST.

>> Reporter: A DRAFT ORDNANCE IS EXPECTED TO COME BEFORE THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS SOME TIME NEXT MONTH.

HEIDI DeMARCO, KPBS NEWS.

>>> SAN DIEGO POLICE ACCOUNTABILITY ADVOCATES ARE CALLING FOR THE REMOVAL OF SAN DIEGO POLICE CHIEF SCOTT WALL, KPBS REPORTER SAYS THEY'RE ACCUSING HIM OF MISCONDUCT.

>> Reporter: COMMUNITY ACTIVIST TA SHA WILLIAMSON FILED A COMPLAINT WITH A STATE BOARD, ASKING IT TO DE-CERTIFY SAN DIEGO POLICE CHIEF SCOTT WALL.

SHE IS ACCUSING HIM OF SERIOUS MISCONDUCT, DISHONESTY AND ABUSE OF AUTHORITY.

>> THESE ALLEGATIONS ARE NOT JUST ABOUT PERSONAL CHOICES.

THEY STRIKE AT THE HEART OF ACCOUNTABILITY, INTEGRITY AND PUBLIC TRUST IN OUR CITIES, HIGHEST LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICE.

>> Reporter: WILLIAMSON FILED THE COMPLAINT ON SUNDAY, WITH THE STATE COMMISSION ON PEACE OFFICER STANDARDS AND TRAINING OR POST.

IT HAS AUTHORITY TO SUSPEND AND DE-CERTIFY OFFICERS FOR SERIOUS MISCONDUCT.

DE-CERTIFICATION MEANS AN OFFICER WOULD NO LONGER BE ABLE TO WORK IN LAW ENFORCEMENT IN CALIFORNIA.

THE COMPLAINT ALLEGES, IN PART, WALL HAD AN AFFAIR WITH A SUBORDINATE UNDER INVESTIGATION AND THAT HE HAS INTERFERED WITH DISCIPLINARY PROCEEDINGS.

THE COMPLAINT COMES AFTER THE CITY OF SAN DIEGO HIRED AN OUTSIDE FIRM EARLIER THIS YEAR TO INVESTIGATE WORKPLACE ALLEGATIONS AGAINST WALL.

OUR MEDIA PARTNER 10 NEWS OBTAINED INVOICES SHOWING THE CITY SPENT MORE THAN $37,000 IN TAXPAYER FUNDS FOR THE PROBE.

THE CITY AND POLICE DEPARTMENT HAVE REFUSED TO DISCLOSE WHAT ALLEGATIONS WERE MADE AND WHAT INVESTIGATORS CONCLUDED.

GENEVIEVE IS THE FOUNDER OF COMMUNITY ADVOCATES FOR JUST AND MORAL GOVERNANCE.

SHE IS ASKING THAT THE FINDINGS OF THAT INTERNAL INVESTIGATION BE RELEASED.

>> EVERY SINGLE FAMILY THAT IS BEING ASKED TO PAY MORE FOR TRASH, MORE FOR PARKING, MORE FOR RECREATION IN OUR CITY, WHILE THE CITY CONTINUES TO WRITE BLANK CHECKS FOR THE POLICE.

>> Reporter: CITY AND POLICE OFFICIALS HAVE REPEATEDLY SAID THEY DO NOT COMMENT ON INTERNAL PERSONAL ISSUES.

KPBS CONTACTED THE POLICE DEPARTMENT ABOUT THE COMPLAINT.

IT DID NOT IMMEDIATELY RESPOND.

WE DID HEAR FROM POST, WHICH SAID IT COULD NOT COMMENT ON SPECIFIC COMPLAINTS.

BUT THEY DID SAY ALL COMPLAINTS RECEIVED BY POST ARE FORWARDED TO THE EMPLOYING AGENCY FOR INVESTIGATION.

>>> QUITE THE WEATHER PATTERN WE'VE BEEN HAVING WITH SOME OF THOSE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FOR SOME OF OUR DESERT COMMUNITIES, BUT ALSO PRETTY QUIET ALONG THE COAST.

TONIGHT MAINLY CLEAR.

NOT MUCH IN THE WAY OF A MARINE LAYER, THOUGH THAT WILL BE COMING BACK THIS WEEK.

I'LL HAVE YOUR FULL FORECAST COMING UP.

>>> TWO WEEKS INTO A FEDERAL TAKEOVER OF LAW ENFORCEMENT IN WASHINGTON, D.C., THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS EYEING CHICAGO.

TWO WHITE HOUSE OFFICIALS SAY PRESIDENT TRUMP IS CONSIDERING DEPLOYING NATIONAL GUARD TROOPS TO THE CITY TO EXPAND HIS CRACKDOWN ON CRIME AND ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION.

IT'S UNCLEAR HOW MANY TROOPS HE MIGHT SEND AND WHEN.

DEMOCRATS IN ILLINOIS SAY THERE IS NO CRIME EMERGENCY TO JUSTIFY SUCH A MOVE.

CHICAGO'S MAYOR SAYS THE CITY WILL SUE IF TROOPS ARE SENT.

>>> THE MARYLAND MAN WHO WAS UNLAWFULLY DEPORTED TO EL SALVADOR EARLIER THIS YEAR WAS DETAINED AGAIN TODAY.

KILL MAR O BRAY GOE GARCIA WAS TAKE INTO CUSTODY AT A CHECK-IN IN BALTIMORE.

>> Reporter: ACTIVISTS RALLIED OUTSIDE AN I.C.E.

FACILITY MONDAY MORNING IN SUPPORT OF KILMAR ABREGO GARCIA.

>> GOD WILL BRING JUSTICE TO ALL OF THE INJUSTICE THAT WE ARE SUFFERING.

>> Reporter: HE'S THE MARYLAND FATHER OF THREE, RETURNED TO THE U.S.

IN JUNE TO FACE HUMAN SMUGGLING CHARGES, AFTER THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION DEPORTED HIM TO A MEGA-PRISON IN EL SALVADOR.

>> HE SUFFERED UNIMAGINABLE HARDSHIPS, PHYSICAL HARM WHILE THERE.

>> Reporter: ABREGO GARCIA WAS RELEASED FROM FEDERAL CUSTODY JUST THREE DAYS AGO PENDING TRIAL.

TODAY, HE'S BACK IN I.C.E.

CUSTODY.

>> AS HE WAS LEAVING THE JAIL ON TENNESSEE ON FRIDAY, HE HAD BEEN GIVEN A NOTICE REQUIRING HIM TO CHECK IN AT 8:00 A.M.

THIS MORNING.

THE NOTICE STATED THE REASON WAS INTERVIEW.

CLEARLY THAT WAS FALSE.

>> Reporter: THE U.S. GOVERNMENT THREATENED TO DEPORT ABREGO GARCIA TO U BEGAN DA AFTER HE REJECTED A PLEA DEAL IN EXCHANGE FOR DEPORTATION TO COSTA RICA.

HIS LAWYERS FILED A LAWSUIT CHALLENGING HIS DETENTION AND DEPORTATION.

MONDAY AFTERNOON, A JUDGE ORDERED FEDERAL OFFICIALS TO KEEP HIM IN THE U.S.

WHILE HE CHALLENGES THAT DEPORTATION.

KILL MAR'S STORY REPRESENTS TENS OF THOUSANDS OF STORIES OF THOSE ACROSS THE COUNTRY WHOSE RIGHTS WE ARE FIGHTING TO UPHOLD.

>>> IMMIGRATION AUTHORITIES HAVE MADE AT LEAST FOUR ARRESTS NEAR SAN DIEGO COUNTY SCHOOLS IN RECENT WEEKS.

THE AGGRESSIVE CRACKDOWN BY THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS CAUSING CONCERN AMONG PARENTS AS THE SCHOOL YEAR GETS UNDER WAY.

GUSTAVO JOINS ME NOW.

WELCOME.

>> HELLO, MAYA.

>> SO THESE ARRESTS ARE GETTING SO MUCH ATTENTION, ESPECIALLY BECAUSE THEY ARE NEAR SCHOOLS.

SO, WHAT IS THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION DOING HERE?

>> WELL, WHAT WE ARE SEEING IS MASS DEPORTATIONS PLAY OUT IN ACTION.

RIGHT?

THEY HAPPEN IN COURTHOUSE ARRESTS, WORKPLACE RAIDS AND ARRESTS NEAR SCHOOLS.

WE'RE JUST SEEING THIS MASS ENFORCEMENT.

I.C.E.

HAS BEEN CALLING THIS TARGETED ARRESTS, BUT AS YOU SAY THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF COMMUNITY PUSHBACK OVER THIS SPECIFIC TACTIC.

>> YEAH.

ONE SPECIFIC ARREST, WHICH HAPPENED NEAR AN ENCINITAS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.

TELL US WHAT HAPPENED THERE.

>> THIS WAS IN THE MORNING AROUND DROP-OFF TIME.

TO BE CLEAR, THE GENTLEMAN THEY ARRESTED WAS NOT DROPPING OFF HIS CHILD.

HE JUST HAPPENED TO BE DRIVING BY THE SCHOOL, NEAR THE SCHOOL.

THAT'S WHEN FEDERAL AGENTS PULLED HIM OVER.

HIS WIFE, HOWEVER, WAS DROPPING THEIR CHILD OFF NEARBY.

HE WAS ABLE TO CALL SOMEBODY WHO CALLED HER.

SHE DROVE TO THE SCENE WITH HER CHILD WITH HER, TRYING TO REALLY JUST PLEAD TO THE AGENTS TO NOT ARREST HER HUSBAND, TO NOT FORCE HIM INTO A TRUCK.

AND IN THE VIDEO, YOU CAN SEE THEM CALLING OUT FOR THEIR FATHER, TRYING TO SAY GOOD-BYE.

THE CHILD JUST REALLY SCREAMING.

AND THE SCHOOL DISTRICT WAS -- RESPONDED, RIGHT?

THE PARENTS OF ONE OF THEIR STUDENTS WAS ARRESTED NEAR CAMPUS.

THEY HAD TO ALERT THE WHOLE DISTRICT AND LET THEM KNOW THERE ARE SOME RESOURCES AVAILABLE FOR THIS TYPE OF THING.

>> YOU'RE RIGHT.

THAT WAS VERY DRAMATIC VIDEO THAT WE SAW.

SO WHAT HAS BEEN THE COMMUNITY REACTION TO THIS?

>> WELL, FOR THIS SPECIFIC ONE, I THINK THE COMMUNITY HAS BEEN KIND OF GALVANIZED AND REALLY RALLIED AROUND THIS FAMILY.

THEY SET UP A GOFUNDME REAL QUICKLY.

I THINK WHEN I FIRST STARTED REPORTING ON IT IT WAS UP TO 7,000.

BY THE TIME WE PUBLISHED IT WAS DOUBLE THAT.

YOU CAN JUST SEE THE RESPONSE, RIGHT?

THE COMMUNITY WANTED TO COVER LEGAL EXPENSES, BUT ALSO JUST EMERGENCY FINANCIAL SERVICES BECAUSE THIS FAMILY LOST THEIR BREADWINNER, RIGHT?

HE WAS GOING TO WORK WHEN HE WAS ARRESTED.

YOU'VE SEEN THE POLITICAL CLASS RESPOND TO THIS.

THERE WERE SIMILAR ARRESTS IN CHULA VISTA, LOCAL COUNCIL MEMBER CRITICIZED THE ARREST.

IN ENCINITAS, MEMBER OF CONGRESS CRITICIZED IT, CALLED IT JUST INHUMANE, THE WRONG WAY TO GO ABOUT IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT.

AND SCHOOL DISTRICTS HAVE ALSO RESPONDED.

EVERY SINGLE CASE, ALL FOUR OF THE ONES WE'VE TALKED ABOUT, THE SCHOOL DISTRICT THOUGHT THAT IT WAS IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO SEND OUT DISTRICTWIDE COMMUNICATION TO PARENTS, TELLING THEM WHAT PROTECTIONS THEY HAVE ON CAMPUS BUT ALSO BEING REAL, LOOK, OUTSIDE OF SCHOOL GROUNDS THE SCHOOL CANNOT DO ANYTHING TO STOP THESE THINGS FROM HAPPENING.

>> YES.

THEY HAD SOME QUICK RESPONSES THERE, TOO.

NOW I.C.E.

SAYS THEY'RE NOT TARGETING SCHOOLS, BUT WE KEEP SEEING THESE ARRESTS HAPPENING.

SO WHAT DO WE NEED TO KNOW HERE?

>> THAT'S THEIR BIG TALKING POINT.

THEY'RE PUSHING BACK AGGRESSIVELY AGAINST ANY NARRATIVE THAT THEY'RE TARGETING SCHOOLS.

IN THE SAME WAY THAT BORDER PATROL AGENTS HAVE BEEN TARGETING HOME DEPOT PARKING LOTS IN LOS ANGELES, RIGHT?

SO I.C.E.

'S POSITION THESE ARE TARGETED ARRESTS, TARGETING INDIVIDUAL PEOPLE WHO JUST HAPPEN TO BE NEAR SCHOOLS.

THEY'RE NOT SPECIFICALLY TARGETING THE SCHOOLS DURING PICKUP AND DROP-OFF TIME.

THAT'S A LITTLE SEMANTICS.

I THINK TO THE GENERAL MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC, IT'S AN ARREST NEAR A SCHOOL INVOLVING A PARENT OF A SCHOOL CHILD.

WHETHER YOU'RE TARGETING THE SCHOOL OR THE INDIVIDUAL, IT DOESN'T SEEM TO MATTER BECAUSE THE EFFECT IS THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY IS ALARMED BY THIS.

>> YEAH.

I'VE BEEN SPEAKING TO KPBS REPORTER GU STA VOE, KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK.

THANK YOU.

>> THANK YOU, MAYA.

>>> TONIGHT ON THE NEWS HOUR, IMMIGRATION OFFICIALS ONCE AGAIN ARREST THE MAN THEY MISTAKENLY DEPORTED TO EL SALVADOR.

THAT'S COMING UP AT 7 AFTER "EVENING EDITION" ON KPBS.

>>> WELL, STUDENTS AT SAN DIEGO STATE UNIVERSITY AND CAL STATE SAN MARCOS RETURNED TO CLASS TODAY.

SDSU SAYS THIS YEAR'S FRESHMAN CLASS IS EXPECTED TO BREAK LAST YEAR'S RECORD OF NEARLY 6,600 ENROLLEES.

TOTAL ENROLLMENT IS EXPECTED TO BE MORE THAN 40,000 STUDENTS.

>>> MANY AMERICAN HOUSEHOLDS HAVE FELT UNCERTAIN ABOUT THE ECONOMY FOR THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS DURING TOUGHER ECONOMIC TIMES.

IT'S IMPORTANT TO BE PREPARED FOR ANY POTENTIAL DOWNTURNS.

I VAN RODRIGUEZ EXPLAINS HOW PEOPLE CAN SET THEMSELVES UP FOR SUCCESS FINANCIALLY, EVEN AS INFLATION KEEPS MAKING IT DIFFICULT.

>> Reporter: EXPERTS PROJECT PRICES IN THE LUST CONTINUE TO RISE BECAUSE OF TARIFFS.

FOR SOME HOUSEHOLDS SMALL INCREASES OVER TIME ARE EASIER TO HANDLE, BUT FOR OTHERS WITH LITTLE WIGGLE ROOM IN THEIR BUDGETS THAT SLOW BURN COULD RESEMBLE A SLOW BLEED.

>> MANY AMERICANS CONTINUE TO FEEL DOWN ABOUT THE ECONOMY, THAT'S LARGELY BECAUSE OF AFFORDABILITY CONCERNS.

>> Reporter: SARA FOSTER WITH BANK RATE SAYS NEARLY 1 IN 4 AMERICANS REPORT HAVING NO EMERGENCY SAVINGS, ACCORDING TO THEIR LATEST REPORT.

DESPITE HOUSEHOLDS FACING HIGHER PRICES, SHE SAYS IT'S IMPORTANT TO STILL HAVE A SAVINGS PLAN.

>> YOU'RE REALLY GOING TO NEED TO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE AT LEAST SOME MONEY SET ASIDE TO HELP YOU PAY FOR ANY KIND OF INCOME DISRUPTION.

>> Reporter: SOME KEYS TO GETTING STARTED INCLUDE CREATING A BUDGET YOU CHECK REGULARLY AND CUTTING BACK ON EXPENSES.

ALSO, INSTEAD OF A SIX-MONTH SAVINGS GOAL FOCUSSED ON A SHORTER TERM OBJECTIVE.

>> SAVING THE FIRST $5, THEN $10 AND EVENTUALLY WORKING UP TO SAVING A MONTH'S WORTH OF EXPENSES.

>> Reporter: ABOUT 46% OF U.S.

ADULTS HAVE ENOUGH EMERGENCY SAVINGS TO COVER THREE MONTHS OF EXPENSES, MORE THAN 1 IN 3 AMERICANS NEEDED TO USE THEIR EMERGENCY SAVING IN THE PAST YEAR WITH A MAJORITY USING IT FOR ESSENTIALS FROM MONTH LY BILLS TO EMERGENCY EXPENSES ACCORDING TO BANK RATE.

FOSTER SAYS THE TWO THINGS THAT MATTER THE MOST WHEN TALKING ABOUT EMERGENCY FUNDS INCLUDE THE HABIT OF BUILDING WEALTH FOR YOURSELF AND TAKING ADVANTAGE OF COMPOUND INTEREST.

>> THINKING YOURSELF AS YOUR OWN BEST ADVOCATE, THAT REALLY IS THE BOTTOM LINE HERE.

>> Reporter: IN ATLANTA, I'M I VAN RODRIGUEZ.

>>> MORE THAN 38 MILLION AMERICANS LIVE WITH TYPE II DIABETES AND THE CDC EXPECTS THAT NUMBER TO CONTINUE GROWING.

WHEN IT COMES TO TREATMENTS, ONE SIZE DOES NOT FIT ALL, BUT A RECENT STUDY SUGGESTS A NEW A.I.

TOOL COULD HELP PATIENTS IN REALTIME.

THIS IS THE STUDY'S PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR.

>> WHEN IT COMES TO TYPE II DIABETES, FULL MANAGEMENT OF THE DISEASE CAN BE A STRUGGLE.

>> GET THE BLOOD PRESSURE UNDER CONTROL.

>> Reporter: DR. KEVIN, WITH CLEVELAND CLINIC SAYS MANY OF HIS PATIENTS WANT TO KNOW HOW THEY CAN GET OFF OF THE MEDICATIONS USED TO HELP THEM MANAGE BLOOD SUGAR, THAT'S WHY HE AND A TEAM OF RESEARCHERS ARE STUDYING HOW ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE MAY BE ABLE TO HELP THROUGH AN APP FROM TWIN HEALTH ON A PATIENT'S SMART PHONE HE SAYS THE TECHNOLOGY USES THE PERSON'S DATA FROM BIO SENSORS, INCLUDING THEIR PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AND CONTINUOUS GLUCOSE MONITOR AND IS ABLE TO LEARN A PATIENT'S PREDICTED GLUCOSE RESPONSES TO VARIOUS MEALS THEN PROVIDES PERSONALIZED RECOMMENDATIONS.

>> IN REALTIME IT WILL TELL THE PATIENTS BASED ON THEIR PREDICTED RESPONSE WHAT THEY SHOULD CONSUME FOR THE MEAL, HOW MANY GRAHAMS OF CARBOHYDRATE AS WELL AS THE ORDER IN WHICH THE FOODS ARE CONSUMED.

>> Reporter: AFTER 12 MONTHS OF RESEARCH, THE DOCTOR SAYS 71% OF PATIENTS WERE ABLE TO GET AN AVERAGE BLOOD GLUCOSE LEVEL OF 6.5% WITHOUT ANY GLUCOSE-LOWERING MEDICATIONS, EXCEPT METAPHORMAN A LOW COST DIABETES DRUG, THAT COMPARED TO THE LESS THAN 3% OF THE GROUP OF PARTICIPANTS WHO TRIED TO ACHIEVE THE SAME RESULTS WITH ONLY STANDARD DIABETES CARE FROM THEIR DOCTOR IN THAT TIME.

>> WHEN YOU GIVE PATIENTS THE TOOLS AND THE TECHNOLOGY TO SUCCEED, PATIENTS CAN DO VERY WELL.

>>> AND THE DOCTOR SAYS THAT THESE RESULTS ARE FROM THE FIRST YEAR OF THE STUDY.

HE SAYS RESEARCHERS ARE NOW WORKING TO DETERMINE IF THOSE INITIAL RESULTS CAN BE MAINTAINED IN THE THE LONG TERM.

>>> A DECAYING BUILDING IN THE HEART OF DOWNTOWN IS FACING A COUNTDOWN TO EITHER BE SOLD OR DEMOLISHED.

KPBS REPORTER JACOB SAYS THE NEARLY 100-YEAR-OLD CALIFORNIA THEATER HAS BEEN SHUTTERED SINCE 1990 DUE TO STRUCTURAL SAFETY CONCERNS.

♪ >> Reporter: THE CALIFORNIA THEATER OPENED IN 1927 AS A MOVIE THEATER SO REFINED IT WAS KNOWN AS THE CATHEDRAL OF THE MOTION PICTURE.

IT STAYED A MOVIE PALACE UNTIL THE 1970s WHEN IT BECAME A CONCERT VENUE.

TODAY IT'S DECAYING THE MIDDLE OF DOWNTOWN SAN DIEGO.

FENCED OFF WITH BOARDED WINDOWS AND LOTS OF GRAFFITI.

>> THIS IS NOT SERVING DOWNTOWN, NOT SERVING THE CITY.

IT'S A VACANT BUILDING.

>> Reporter: THE SITE COULD FINALLY SEE SOME CHANGES COMING SOON DUE TO A LEGAL SETTLEMENT REACHED BETWEEN THE OWNERS AND THE CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE.

IT FOLLOWS A LAWSUIT FILED BY THE CITY TWO YEARS AGO.

>> THE END RESULT WILL EITHER BE THEY SUCCESSFULLY SELL THE PROPERTY, HOPEFULLY TO SOMEBODY WHO IS REALLY TO REDEVELOP THE SITE OR THEY HAVE TO DEMOLISH IT.

>> Reporter: THE PROPERTY MUST BE FORMALLY LISTED AND ACTIVELY MARKETED FOR SALE BY AUGUST 30th.

THE OWNER THEN HAS UNTIL THE END OF 2026 TO FINALIZE THE SALE OF THE PROPERTY.

IF THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN, THE OWNERS WILL HAVE 90 DAYS TO OBTAIN PERMITS FOR THE CONTROLLED DEMOLITION OF THE STRUCTURES ON SITE.

>> EITHER WAY, IT WILL END UP FOR A BETTER RESULT FOR THAT LOCATION THAN WHAT'S SITTING THERE NOW JUST CONTINUING TO DETERIORATE.

>> Reporter: KPBS REACHED OUT THE THE NOW BANKRUPT OWNER FOR COMMENT.

THEY DID NOT IMMEDIATELY RESPOND.

KPBS ALSO REACHED OUT TO THE SAVE OUR HERITAGE ORGANIZATION.

THE GROUP LOBBIED SUCCESSFULLY TO GET THE BUILDING'S HISTORIC PROTECTION AND THEY ALSO FILED A LAWSUIT TO STOP A PREVIOUS REDEVELOPMENT EFFORT THAT WOULD HAVE REPLACED THE GROUND FLOORS OF THE BUILDING WITH A PARKING GARAGE.

THEY DECLINED TO COMMENT ON THE LATEST SETTLEMENT.

>> THERE MAY BE WAYS TO APPLY AND MITIGATE HISTORIC RESOURCE REQUIREMENTS AND STILL DEMOLISH THE BUILDING.

WE'VE SEEN IT HAPPEN IN OTHER INSTANCES AS WELL.

IT CAN BE DONE.

>> Reporter: THE SETTLEMENT REQUIREMENTS THE PROPERTY GROUP TO REIMBURSE THE CITY FOR INVESTIGATIVE COSTS AND TO MAINTAIN SITE SECURITY.

IF THE OWNERS FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE TERMS OF THE SETTLEMENT, THEY COULD FACE UP TO $1 MILLION IN CIVIL PENALTIES.

>>> THE SAN DIEGO ZOO IS MOURNING THREE LONG-TIME RESIDENTS.

POLAR BEAR, A GIRAFFE AND A GORILLA.

KPBS ARTS DIRECTOR TALKS HOW THEY ARE HONORING THE MEMBERS WITH A NEW MURAL.

>> Reporter: THE PAST TWO WEEKS HAVE BEEN ONE OF THE MOST CHALLENGING PERIODS IN RECENT MEMORY.

AUGUST 14th, A 24-YEAR-OLD POLAR BEAR AND NIKKI A 28-YEAR-OLD GIRAFFE WERE EUTHANIZED AFTER MOUNTING HEALTH PROBLEMS.

FOUR DAYS LATER, THE ZOO LOST MAKA A 30-YEAR-OLD GORILLA AFTER A CARDIAC EVENT.

PAUL JIMENEZ OF GROUND FLOOR MURALS DECIDED TO HONOR THEM WITH A NEW MURAL.

>> I'VE BEEN GOING TO THE ZOO SINCE I WAS A CHILD, THEY'RE ROUGHLY THE SAME AGE AS I AM.

I PRETTY MUCH GREW UP WITH THESE ANIMALS.

I FELT A CONNECTION.

AND I JUST -- YOU KNOW, I JUST FELT STRONG OBLIGATION TO PAINT THESE MURALS.

>> Reporter: JIMENEZ AND HIS GROUP GROUND FLOOR MURALS ARE BUSY WITH COMMISSIONS FROM LOCAL BUSINESSES, BUT THIS PROJECT WAS PERSONAL.

HE FUNDED IT HIMSELF.

AND THE MURAL CAME TOGETHER JUST DAYS AFTER MAKA DIED.

>> I GOT HERE AT 5:00 P.M.

I LEFT HERE AT 1:30 IN THE MORNING AND IT WAS FINISHED.

BUT THINGS LIKE THIS AND MEMORIAL PIECES, SOMETHING JUST GETS IN ME AND I KIND OF GET IN A TRANCE.

IF I CAN'T REALLY RECALL PAINTING THIS ONE.

I JUST REMEMBER STARTING AND THEN IT'S FINISHED AND THEN I'M GOING HOME AND FALLING ASLEEP AND SLEEPING FOR THE NEXT DAY.

>> Reporter: JIMENEZ PAINTED MURALS FOR OTHER LEGENDARY SAN DIEGANS, LIKE NFL STAR JUNIOR AND PETER SIDE LER.

BOTH OF WHOM LEFT A LASTING IMPACT ON THE COMMUNITY.

HE SAID THE ZOO'S RECENT LOSSES DESERVED THE SAME KIND OF TRIBUTE.

>> THESE ANIMALS IN PARTICULAR HAVE BROUGHT ME A RELATIONSHIP WITH MY MOM.

THEY'VE GIVEN ME, YOU KNOW, MORE REASON TO CARE ABOUT THE PLANET.

THEY GIVEN ME KNOWLEDGE AND EXCITEMENT.

HOPEFULLY THIS IS MY WAY OF PAYING THEM BACK, YOU KNOW.

>> Reporter: THE MURAL IS AT 17th STREET AND MARKET.

ANTHONY WALLACE, KPBS NEWS.

>> WOW, WHAT A TALENTED ARTIST.

♪ >>> REALLY LOT OF MONSOONAL MOISTURE WORKING ITS WAY IN THE DESERT SOUTHWEST.

AND FOR SOME OF OUR LOCATIONS, WE'VE EXPERIENCED THAT STRAY SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM.

AS WE GO THROUGH THE UPCOMING DAYS, THOUGH, THAT MONSOONAL MOISTURE IS GOING TO LESSEN FOR US.

WE'LL HAVE NEAR AVERAGE TEMPERATURES TOO, RETURNING, TOO, AS WE WORK OUR WAY INTO TOMORROW AND THE MARINE LAYER DEEPENING INTO THIS UPCOMING WEEKEND.

SO WE WILL BE GETTING A LITTLE MORE OF THAT.

IT'S BEEN PRETTY LIMITED AS OF RECENTLY.

SO NO SURPRISE TONIGHT, FAIRLY QUIET, MAINLY CLEAR.

67 FOR THE CITY.

FEW MORE CLOUDS TOWARDS OCEANSIDE AT 66.

AS YOU WORK YOUR WAY TOWARDS BA RAY GOE SPRINGS, 65.

TOMORROW THE PATTERN STILL HOLDS.

WE KEEP THIS MONSOONAL MOISTURE INTO ABOUT WEDNESDAY.

THE SHOWERS, THUNDERSTORMS STILL A POSSIBILITY, THOUGH YOU'LL NOTE THAT TOMORROW LESS THAN WHAT WE SAW YESTERDAY -- TODAY AND YESTERDAY AND WEDNESDAY WILL BE A LITTLE LESS SO AS WELL.

SO WE ARE TRIMMING THE MOISTURE BACK.

BUT WE COULD HAVE THAT CHANCE FOR A SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM TOWARDS MOUNT LAGUNA KEPT DOWN A LITTLE BIT.

IN THE CITY, WE'LL MAKE IT TO 77 FOR THE AFTERNOON WITH MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES.

YOU CAN SEE ALL OF THIS MOIST PATTERN HERE STILL HOLDING ON.

VERY ACTIVE ACROSS THE INTERIOR SOUTHWEST.

AND THROUGH OUR DESERT SOUTHWEST REGION, BUT AS WE HEAD INTO TOMORROW MORNING, MOST OF THAT MOISTURE STARTS TO LIFT NORTH.

WE GET A BREAK IN THE ACTION.

WILL WE STILL SEE POPUP SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS, COUPLE OF THEM STAYING OVER SOME OF THE MOUNTAINOUS TERRAIN AND DRIFTING THROUGH A FEW DESERTS.

BUT OVERALL, IT IS GOING TO BE AGAIN A LESSER IMPACT HERE OF THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FOR YOUR TUESDAY.

AND WE'LL SEE THAT DWINDLE THEN INTO WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY.

THE WEEK TO COME, THE NUMBERS DO GO BACK UP FOR US AT THE COAST, BACK INTO THE INTO THE LOWER 80s FOR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.

WE'RE CLOSE TO WHERE WE SHOULD BE THIS TIME OF YEAR FOR INLAND COMMUNITIES.

MID 80s AND THEN WE GO INTO THE UPPER 80s, CLOSE TO 90 DEGREES HEADING INTO THE WEEKEND.

GETS WARM AS WE VENTURE TOWARDS THE END OF THE WORKWEEK AND INTO THE START OF THE WEEKEND.

MOUNTAIN COMMUNITIES, YOU CAN FIND SOME OF THOSE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS, LESS ACTIVITY BY THE TIME WE GET INTO WEDNESDAY AND WE DRY OUT.

IT WILL BE SIMILAR FOR OUR DESERT COMMUNITIES WHERE WE VENTURE BACK TO THE TRIPLE DIGITS BY THURSDAY.

>> PEOPLE SEEM TO BE ISOLATED.

THEY SEEM CLOSE TO EACH OTHER, BUT THEY ARE VERY ISOLATED.

>> TONY YOUNG PLAYS OPPOSITE MRS. CHAN.

THESE TWO STRANGERS SOON DISCOVER THAT THEIR SPOUSES ARE HAVING AN AFFAIR WITH EACH OTHER.

>> EVEN VERY EARLY ON WHEN WE DID THE SCENES IN THE SLOW MOTION THAT WE SEE EACH OTHER IN THE STAIRS OF THE NOODLE STAND, WE WOULD LOOK AT EACH OTHER, BUT JUST KIND OF PASSING.

YOU FEEL THESE TWO ARE VERY LONELY PEOPLE AND WHAT BROUGHT THEM TOGETHER WAS THE BIG CRISIS IN HER LIFE.

AND THAT OTHER PERSON IS THE ONLY PERSON THAT THEY CAN SHARE IT WITH.

FOR ME, SHE IS A DEEPLY WOUNDED PERSON.

THAT'S WHY SHE HAS DEVELOPED INTO SUCH A WOMAN THAT SHE NEEDS ALL THAT DRESSING UP AND THAT PERFECTION IN HOW SHE LOOKS TO KIND OF HIDE HER SADNESS AND PAIN AND TO LOOK STRONG.

BECAUSE SHE IS SO SCARED OF BEING HURT AGAIN THAT SHE'S RESERVING A LOT OF HERSELF AND NOT SHOWING IT TO OTHER PEOPLE.

>> WITH LUNG YOU ONLY NEED HIS EYES TO EXPRESS WHAT'S GOING ON.

>> I THINK IT'S BECAUSE OF MY OWN BACKGROUND THAT CAN EXPRESS SOMETHING THROUGH MY EYES WITHOUT SAYING A WORD.

BECAUSE I CAME FROM A BROKEN FAMILY WHEN I WAS A KID.

I WAS VERY RESTRAINED AND SUPPRESSED, VERY MUCH LIKE THE CHARACTER IN THE "MOOD FOR LOVE".
