Livermore PD responds to inquiry re UOC stop, provides stop/search/UOC policies
All,

After reading here about the recent Livermore PD UOC incident allegedly related to Mr. Walter Stanley, I began an inquiry with the Livermore Police Department to determine their department's policy as relates to UOC response and the search of pedestrians openly carrying unloaded firearms.

As a response to my request, I received the attached correspondence and associated department policies; namely, Livermore PD's policy no. 322 concerning "Search and Seizure" and policy no. 441, "Unloaded Open Carry (UOC) Movement".

Note that I have not yet received the electronic footage responsive to my request but will update this post with a link to the file as soon as it's available. Also, their response has triggered further inquiries with the department which I'll also provide updates to here.

I'm pleased to report that much follow-up work is in progress. With this in mind, I'd ask that folks refrain from contact with the City and PD regarding this incident until we can work through to resolution.

I look forward to keeping everyone updated.

I will second this request, PLEASE do not contact LPD on this issue. Walter is a very smart man, and not new to this. He knows what to do, when to do it and how to do it. Rest assured, he WILL get it done.
