Sadly, even if you make an arrest the DA will not rebook it. I know. I did it and had plenty of evidence to prove my charges beyond a reasonable doubt. The rebooking was kicked up the chain of command in the DAs office and then declined. The public defender resigned shortly thereafter and went to LA. Hmmmmm
Wow…well said from one the best investigators at SFPD….The whole system is corrupt. If the Chief isn’t corrupt, the district attorney is corrupt. If the those aren’t corrupt, the public defender is. If all these aren’t, the judge is. No wonder there is rampant crime in San Francisco.
Lou - Doing what Lou does. Extremely thorough, worth editing down 50%. Editing is a hard task!
As I began to read your article, I could swear I knew about this case from a prior report you made on it, but it seemed to me that had happened one or more years previously, not just a few weeks ago?
I must have been a lot busier than I've realized?
Well - this is total nonsense on the part of the Commissioner, his wife the ADA, and the SFPD. Wherever corruption starts is less important than where it stops! The Q in San Francisco, is does it ever stop? All of the good people's reputations get trashed by these events, yet they don't seem to want to risk banding together to drive the frauds out of their office, out of their agency, out of their department.
It's never been about if Chief Scott is a good guy personally, it's always been about him being a commuting from SoCal Chief of Police, and a political mouthpiece for the Mayor's office, rather than hard ass dedicated to protecting the residents, workers, and tourists in San Francisco. None of this is news to me.

Lenny, wasn't that under Harris, Loftus, or Boudin?
It was Gascon
i forgot him (how could I?).
Jenkins is a normal DA, Len. You would have liked her.

So who oversees the overseers? And what about the buzz word transparency? This stinks real bad. I hope Scott clears some of this mess up real soon.
