n Nov. 25, the Rialto City Council approved a nine-year, $14.3 million contract with Axon Enterprise Inc., formerly TASER International, expanding the police department’s surveillance, software, and AI-driven technology through the company’s Officer Safety Plan 10 (OSP 10). The agreement was adopted as part of a 2025-26 budget amendment allowing the

city to lock in contract pricing, service continuity and reduce administrative costs. The Rialto Police Department, the first department in the nation to implement body-worn cameras and participate in a controlled study, adopted the use of body cameras in 2012, initiating the department’s use of Axon’s AI-driven assistance suite. Rialto Police Captain Lamont Quarker, a 22-year veteran of the department, said the investment positions officers to work with modern tools designed to improve investi-

gations and response times. “We’re going to be arming our officers with the best technology that we have available right now that is going to really help officers do the job, which is ultimately going to help serve our community better,” he said. The Axon package includes upgraded body-worn and in-car cameras, digital evidence platforms, automated video analysis, license-plate readers and Rialto’s first Drone-as-First-Repsonder (DFR) program Drone Policing, cont. on next pg.

to retire at all.

“Now you see a very small percentage of workers that can actually retire,” Korgan said. “More than 80% of workers in the workforce do not have a retirement vehicle upon retiring at this given point right now. It is a shocking, absolutely shocking statistic.”

tanding in a union hall filled with families lining up for free photos with Santa on Dec. 3, Teamsters Local 1932 Principal Officer Randy Korgan said the most urgent issue facing Inland Empire workers isn’t holiday spending — it’s whether they will be able

Korgan said too many people who spend decades on the job are being pushed out just when they should be able to slow down. “People get into their 50s or early 60s and inevitably what happens is you run into a health issue that then forces you to retire Teamsters Local 1932, cont. on next pg.

Drone Policing (cont.) - through Axon Air. The drones can reach scenes in under 90 seconds, Quarker said, providing critical information before ground units arrive. He noted that the Ontario Police Department—one of the first Inland Empire agencies to use the DFR program—now routinely sees drones reach calls ahead of officers. “Having a drone in the air provides so much intelligence,” he said, especially when officers lack visibility on the ground as incidents unfold. Quarker also highlighted Rialto’s experience with FUSUS, an Axon system that links police to participating businesses’ security cameras with owner permission. The system, he said, reduces delays in obtaining footage and can generate more investigative leads. “These investments . . . are all about being able to serve our community better when, unfortunately, crime is a reality of our society,” he said, adding that as a long-time Rialto resident, unsolved crimes have long frustrated him as an investigator. Even so, the use of artificial intelligence raises questions about data ownership, surveillance and compliance. In a follow-up email, Quarker said that “No outside Teamsters Local 1932 (cont.) - workers to have what they need at that time.” “When they get to that older age and they can’t do the job anymore, they just turn them out and get a younger person in,” Korgan said. “It’s almost like discarding workers. We’re seeing this attitude from employers and it has to change.” He said the consequences are severe. “Usually what happens is they end up on some form of public assistance,” Korgan said. “They may be disabled in a way where they’re not completely unable to work, but they clearly can’t keep doing the job they’ve done for 30 or 40 years. That leads to housing insecurity and dramatically changes their life.” Korgan was especially critical of how 401(k) plans have replaced traditional pensions. “Here’s a shocking statistic, the way I understand it,” he said. “More than 85% of workers who have a 401(k) available to them use it as a retirement vehicle. First off, it shouldn’t be a retirement vehicle — it’s a savings plan. But it has now become the primary retirement vehicle in America, and that’s a mistake.” He said that for most workers, those savings are wiped out before they ever retire. “When those workers get to the point of retirement, more than 80% of them have to draw it down to zero,” Korgan said. “In other words, they have to completely empty the bucket of their 401(k) before retirement because of one of three reasons: a death in the family, a job loss, or health care expenses.” “How is it a retirement vehicle if it’s my own money and I’m working for an employer? That’s a savings plan,” he said. “There absolutely needs to be a commitment from employers to take care of their workers up until the day they retire, and to make sure that once they do retire, they’re in a good place.” Korgan pointed to defined benefit

agency, including Axon may access or use Rialto’s data unless access is authorized by the Rialto Police Department,” in compliance with the “law, policy, and applicable court orders,” adding that “all access to video or intelligence systems is logged and subject to audit.” He added that “Public privacy, transparency, and civilliberties protections are central to how the department deploys all technologies,” noting that strict limits in compliance with Surveillance Use Policy will be in place before the DFR program begins. While artificial intelligence may provide benefits, such as reducing officers’ workload to write incident reports, for example, civil-liberties advocates argue AIassisted policing tools pose serious risks. According to a 2024 American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) analysis, the use of generative AI to write reports raises bias and transparency concerns. “Because police reports play such an important role in criminal investigations and prosecutions, introducing novel AI language-generating technology into the criminal justice system raises significant civil liberties and civil rights concerns,” the ACLU analysis said. “These concerns include the unreliability and biased nature of AI, evidentiary and memory issues when officers resort to this technology, and issues around transparency. In the end, we do not think police departments should use this technology.”

pensions and meaningful employerfunded retirement plans as models that “have proven to be beneficial to the working class upon the point of retirement.” Against that backdrop, the union’s recent work with young people, he said, is about building a different future from the one many older workers are facing now. Earlier this school year, on Nov. 6, Teamsters Local 1932 hosted a career day at its training center that brought in more than 1,200 students from over 40 Inland Empire schools across 13 school districts. “There were more than 50 jobs that they were introduced to, Teamster union jobs in the region, jobs that you could buy a home with, you know, the good-paying jobs,” Korgan said. He said the event was designed with the reality in mind that most Inland Empire students will not immediately head to college. “A lot of high schoolers think, what am I going to do as soon as I graduate?” he said. “From what I understand, 82% of kids in the Inland Empire are not going to college and therefore they’re going to get in the job market. There’s nothing wrong with that. We just have to get them connected to good jobs.” Employers at the event included UPS and public-sector agencies. “We had UPS here,” Korgan said. “You had the county here with a number of positions — professional positions, public works positions, jobs working for the water department.” For many public agencies — cities and the county — representatives were on hand to explain what it takes to get into those careers, he said, citing Stater Brothers’ warehouse and its operation as another example. Students’ reactions, Korgan added, showed how little exposure many have had to stable, family-supporting work. “Hearing a high school student say, ‘I

Dr. Zachary Powell, a sociologist at Cal State University San Bernardino (CSUSB) who studies police reform, echoed these concerns and elaborated on the mixed-bag of AI-assisted police tools, emphasizing caution, competence and prudence. For example, he said that while body-camera tools have value, they have not been shown to consistently reduce statistically rare events, such as excessive force. “It’s hard to reduce rare incidents like that because the base rate is so low,” Powell said, adding that as AI becomes more embedded in policing the public is going to have to wrestle with legal issues we’re not yet fully aware of. Given the complicated nature of disruptive technologies, he noted that no technology substitutes for “knowing how to use your brain,” to analyze information and evaluate potential errors. Inland Empire Community News reached out to the Ontario Police Department and Axon Enterprise Inc. for additional comments and clarification. They have not responded. This article will be updated to include their comments if and when they provide them.

didn’t realize there were this many good jobs that we could connect to,’” he said. “They were really blown away that there were other opportunities that they had not been exposed to. Hearing that multiple times from multiple high school students was very impactful. It meant we hit a home run with our event.” School districts represented at the career day included San Bernardino, Redlands, Fontana, Colton and Rancho Cucamonga. Districts or schools interested in future events can contact the Teamsters Local 1932 Training Center. While the career day looks toward students’ futures, the union’s Holiday Open House — where the interview took place — reflects the present-day struggles and solidarity of working families. “If you look around, you see the kids getting a picture with Santa and Mrs. Claus instead of having to go to the mall and pay for a picture, you can get one here for free if you’re a member,” Korgan said. “They’re definitely not cheap.” He said the gathering is as much about connection as it is about celebration. “It also builds camaraderie and brings our members and their families to a common space where we have common issues to face,” he said. “It gives families a day to celebrate, knowing that the holidays are here, and a day where the kids get in the jumper or the maze or play the games and just enjoy themselves for a bit. It turns into a nice little family event.” Those “common issues,” he said, include health care costs and keeping wages ahead of inflation. “Affordable health care, or access to health care, is always an issue — something that we’re always striving to make sure our members have the best access available,” Korgan said. “We consistently work on that, as well as making sure that their jobs, and the jobs

we represent them in, can sustain an economic future where they can afford to buy homes and goods and services in the area and keep up with inflation and the economic conditions of the region.” He also urged caution around automation and AI, particularly in logistics. “You’ve got to be very careful, number one, about getting rid of your own job, and number two, most importantly, about the safety factor of eliminating who would be overseeing a safe environment,” he said. “You put a big rig full of products going down the freeway and you have a driverless vehicle — I don’t know, I don’t want my family on the road next to that.” “Some people would say it’s safer than human beings. I’m sorry, but I’m going to trust a human being behind the wheel,” he added. “Sometimes you don’t realize what you’ve got until you’ve lost it — then who’s there to pick up the pieces? Computer.” Looking into 2026, Korgan said the union will continue pushing for better health care, safer workplaces and real retirement paths, while maintaining events that reflect its role in the broader community. “Our annual event that’s massive here, which we get four or five thousand people attending, is the car show on April 11th,” he said. “Looking forward to seeing everybody here. The general public, not just our members, are all welcome to attend.” Korgan said the car show also serves as a major fundraiser for the union’s charity fund, which primarily supports Youth Helpers. The nonprofit uses the money to send kids to camp in Big Bear and to run programs for teens and younger students that, he said, “bring good awareness not just on unions, but on becoming a responsible adult when they get there.” From sounding the alarm on a retirement crisis to guiding students toward union careers and investing in local youth, Korgan said Teamsters Local 1932 intends to keep its San Bernardino hall a place where working people in the Inland Empire can gather, be heard and fight for a more secure future.

CSUSB Professor Leads Breakthrough Study That Solves Martian Mystery

By CSUSB

atteo Crismani, associate professor of physics and astronomy and director of the Murillo Family Observatory at Cal State San Bernardino, and a team of independent scientists have solved a decade-old Martian mystery that baffled planetary scientists worldwide. The study, published online in Icarus in September ahead of its appearance in the scientific journal’s January 2026 issue, reexamines a 2015 report that claimed to show massive “plumes” of material extending more than 150 miles above Martian surface — far beyond the planet’s lower atmosphere. In planetary terms, a plume is a broad, feather-shaped cloud of gas, dust, or other material that extends outward from its source. The paper, titled “High-altitude Martian plume is likely an ordinary twilight cloud,” offers a new explanation for the phenomenon. Crismani is the paper’s lead author,

joined by co-authors Michael Chaffin, Kyle Connour, Nicholas Schneider, Shannon Curry, Justin Deighan and Sonal Jain, all from the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics at the University of Colorado Boulder; Reed Fitzpatrick from the University of California, Riverside; Giuliano Luizzi from the University of Basilicata; Marek Slipski from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory; and Geronimo Villanueva from NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center. Together, the team collaborated on the new analysis that overturns earlier interpretations of the phenomenon. “This research brought together scientists from multiple NASA and ESA (European Space Agency) Mars missions, senior and junior researchers, and even an undergraduate contributor,” said Crismani. “It exemplifies the scientific process, where new evidence sparks mystery and debate, yet through collaboration and communication, understanding of complex phenomena can be achieved within our lifetimes.” The original 2015 telescopic observa-

tions showed patches of light that appeared to rise above the edge of the planet, effectively into space. Since clouds are unlikely to form so high, scientists proposed other possibilities — such as a new type of dust storm or even a daytime aurora. For nearly a decade, the phenomenon remained an unsolved mystery. Crismani and his colleagues recently reanalyzed the published images of Mars and discovered that it was literally a matter of perspective. The original report had not fully accounted for Earth, Mars and the Sun not being in a straight line. In the new study, careful analysis of the viewing geometry revealed that a small but significant dark crescent was in view, much like Earth’s moon when it is not quite full. This meant that part of Mars' nightside was in view behind the bright patches, but too dark for the telescopes to detect. “When you notice a pair of eyes gleaming at you out of the darkness, the simplest explanation is that there’s an

Op-Ed Colton’s Failure to Rezone Jeopardizes 5,434 Homes and Our Say in Future Development By Josiel Perez, Colton resident

he City of Colton is falling behind on one of the biggest issues in our region: housing.

Concerningly, the city has been out of compliance with California’s housing laws since October 2022, when it missed the state’s required rezoning deadline under AB 1398. Since then, the state has contacted Colton multiple times, most recently issuing a formal inquiry this April from the Department of Housing and Community Development. Despite these notices, the city still has not completed the zoning updates required for compliance. This ongoing noncompliance has real consequences. Without a compliant Housing Element, Colton risks losing local control over new develop-

ment through the state’s “builder’s remedy,” which allows certain housing projects to bypass local zoning. The city could also face financial penalties or legal action, and become less competitive for state funding. Most importantly, this noncompliance is worsening our local housing shortage. Colton was allocated 5,434 new homes for the 2021–2029 cycle, but many of the sites identified for these units cannot move forward without the required rezoning. Meanwhile, home prices and rents continue to rise, and homelessness has increased. Colton’s ongoing noncompliance puts the city in a difficult position at a time when housing pressures continue to grow. It is important for residents to understand how these unresolved zoning obligations could bring challenges by shaping future developments and the city's ability to respond to local housing demand.

animal behind them that’s just too shadowy for you to make out, not that there’s a ghost or apparition standing there in defiance of known physics,” said Chaffin. “The same is true of Mars: rather than exotic plumes, simple geometry and ordinary clouds seem to be the cause of these phenomena.” Once the geometry was verified with computer models, the patches of light were much easier to explain — they were just normal clouds over Mars at sunrise or sunset. When viewed from Earth, the clouds lined up against Mars' dark crescent, creating the illusion that they were impossibly high. But such twilight clouds are relatively common on Mars and have been observed by orbiters and rovers. The team’s analysis confirmed that no new types of clouds, dust storms or auroras are needed to explain the event. What once appeared to be clouds in space turned out to be a simple matter of perspective. Mystery solved. .

Redlands Unified Vote Dec. 9 on Banning Black-Authored ‘Push,’ ‘The Bluest Eye’ Despite Review By IECN Staff

n Tuesday, December 9, 2025, at 6:00 p.m., the Redlands Unified School District Board of Education will vote on whether to ban two critically acclaimed books, Push by Sapphire and The Bluest Eye by Nobel Laureate Toni Morrison. Both titles, written by Black authors, were selected by credentialed district librarians. They have been subsequently challenged under the district’s newly revised Board Policy 1312.2. While RUSD previously maintained a long-standing policy for reviewing challenged instructional materials, the policy was revised following a shift to a conservative majority on the Board.

PHOTO REDLANDS USD/MANNY SANDOVAL

Redlands Unified School District leaders Michele Rendler (board president), Patty Holohan (vice president), Jeannette Wilson (clerk), trustees Melissa Ayala-Quintero and Candy Olson, and Superintendent Juan Cabral.

The district invested resources to assemble these committees, ensuring that the review process was thorough, balanced, and aligned with policy. “These committees required both time and district funds to complete their work, and they recommended that these books remain available to students,” said a representative of Together for Redlands. “We urge the Board to respect the integrity of that process. Ignoring the committees’ findings would undermine the policy the Board adopted and waste valuable district resources.” The meeting will take place in the RUSD Board Room at 25 West Lugonia Avenue in Redlands. Members of the public and press are encouraged to attend.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an "eligible tenant buyer," you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an "eligible bidder," you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 877-237-7878, or visit w w w. p e a k f o r e c l o s u r e . c o m using file number assigned to this case: CA-MLC-25021237 to find the date on which the trustee's sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee's sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee's sale. If you think you may qualify as an "eligible tenant buyer" or "eligible bidder," you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.
