Well, despite two stints in prison from 2010-2011, it looks like Debbie hasn't learned her
lesson to STFU. Witness the minutes of the Eugene Police Commission meetings for April

Public Comments:
Deb Frisch directed her remarks to Lt. Fellman as Chief Kerns’ designee. She commended
the Eugene Police Department (EPD) for using what she considered the optimal levels of police
presence during the evacuation of the Occupy Eugene encampment and the State of the City event.
She suggested it was evidence of increased quality in the department’s strategic thinking. Referring
to media reports that no charges would be filed in the death of Rick Youngblood at the Occupy
Eugene site, Ms. Frisch compared Mr. Youngblood to Trayvon Martin in that both were marginalized
by society and objected that no one had been charged in the Youngblood case. She considered it a
black eye on the department after an otherwise stellar department performance at Occupy Eugene.

Public Comments:
Deb Frisch – She relayed that the
Commission provides a voice of the public to the Police Department. She
believes that the Commission should be taking action, rather than just
having informational items. Perhaps there should be more public
hearings, so more people
would be encouraged to attend. Also, the
formality of the Commission meeting sometimes
discourages participation.
