Outstanding analysis and article. I guess common sense is so common until you pointed out the obvious… shoplifting decreased…not a chance

As usual Lou, you are spot on! Please continue speaking the only truth I have read in years written about what goes on behind closed doors in the criminal justice system.

Lou, any chance you can address the elephant in the room regarding staffing at the SFPD?

I just read an article in the examiner which emphasized the lack of staffing in the fire department and it supplied some scary numbers regarding their understaffing. I believe the staffing emergency at the SFPD is at least 3 times worse!

Keep up the great work!

Lou, your report is very accurate. I noted that the crime rate is much higher than what is actually reported. And although the SFDA bares some of the responsibility, I would say the overall accountability falls on SFPD. They are the first responders, they (police) need to do their job, irrespective of what SFDA does. Too many SFPD officers use the DA as excuse not to do their job. Find the victims who been turned off by SF officers who lack empathy. Let’s put all facts out.
