In conjunction with Sonoma County Supervisor Valerie Brown, Sonoma County Sheriff Bill Cogbill will host a community meeting next week to discuss law enforcement issues in Sonoma Valley. To be addressed at the public meeting are crime rates in general, gangs, a recent sexual assault in Boyes Hot Springs, as well as the deputy-involved shooting death of Craig Von Dohlen on Dec. 6, 2008.
Cogbill makes note of a “fair amount of misinformation and speculation” surrounding the shooting, which led to this meeting. He plans to discuss police practices, use of force and the investigative and review process.
The meeting will begin at 6 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 15, 2009 at the Sonoma Valley Grange, located at 18627 Sonoma Hwy in Boyes Hot Springs, across from Mary’s Pizza Shack.
The public is encouraged to attend.
