        Here's some more of that fascinating story. Here's hoping that 2021 doesn't fascinate us into oblivionhttps://twitter.com/LuigiCPA/status/1345025232080261122 …

        Is Boudin responsible for the two women killed by parole? Troy M was booked last night for stealing a car, second degree burglary, felon in possession of a firearm, large capacity magazine, meth, and voluntary manslaughter. Boudin let the parole go as recently as Dec 23 (1/3)

        Bluoz, I made a mistake. It wasn't possession of meth, there was a large enough quantity that Troy was booked "possession for sale." But Chesa only files on "kilos, not crumbs."

        Thank you @JamesClayton5 for covering @chesaboudin's efforts to reform a murderously brutal police state and for profit prison complex. As a fellow neighbor san Franciscan, I appreciate bringing unbiased journalism to cover this vital issue, America needs reform and youre helping

        Reporters and the media should be asking tough questions and holding city leaders accountable.

        Did you ask him about the fentanyl deaths, and if he feels responsible to stop those deaths? Did you ask him if he hopes to win the hearts and minds of the cops or if he’s happier being adversarial with them?
