Remington #1043, HBPD Officer Damian Velasco #2045, HBPD Officer Christopher Simpson #3013, and
HBPD Officer Nicholas Koehler #2263. As part of the OIS investigation, I requested the most recent range
qualification records for all of the involved shooters.
After the OIS, the above listed officers were each processed by the Orange County Crime Lab (OCCL) and
the weapons they used were collected (See report by Investigator D. Womack for further and OCCL FR #21-

# (REMINGTON), Glock Model 17 # (VELASCO), Glock Model 17 #
(SIMPSON), and GLOCK MODEL 17 # (KOEHLER).
On Friday, October 8, 2021 HBPD Profession Standards Unit Sergeant B. Jones #1018 emailed a PDF
attachment titled, "HBPD OIS Officers Range Quals". On Friday, October 15, 2021 I downloaded and
reviewed the PDF document. The document was a copy of a form titled, "Huntington Beach Police
Department - Firearms Training and Qualifications. The sheet showed the records were for August 2021 and
for, "Primary Duty Handguns, Back-Up, and Off Duty." There were five sheets in total. The names of
uninvolved officers had been blacked out / redacted. For additional details, see the attached qualification
record.
For Officers Parker, Velasco, and Koehler the record reflected that all three officers qualified in August 2021

On Monday, October 18, 2021 at about 09:00 hours, I spoke to HBPD Sergeant Jerry Goodspeed at, (714)

sworn officers are required to qualify every even month of the year (February, April, June, August, October,
December). Sergeant J. Godspeed later confirmed the Glock Model 19 issued to Detective Remington had

Simpson may have qualified with the weapon in question during a weapons mounted sight course in June
2021. Sergeant Goodspeed stated he would attempt to locate the record and contact me with the correct
information.
On Wednesday, October 20, 2021 at about 15:40 hours, left me a voicemail message. Sergeant Goodspeed
