What does it take for @chesaboudin to put someone in prison? Still waiting for the answer to that question, but evidently it does not include homicide.https://twitter.com/SusanDReynolds/status/1436376904337035266 …

Replying to @DavidSacks @chesaboudin
Does the DA's office really not secure custodial sentences for *anyone* at all? That seems hard to believe. Is there an easily-accessible dataset of prison terms for those prosecuted by the SF DA's office? One row per sentence, with date, term and some sort of unique person ID?

Sure, but the reality of the situation fundamentally disagrees with the fear-mongering. The data is available, and reasonable so long as you respect science.https://jkalven.medium.com/dont-believe-the-lie-that-da-boudin-is-not-bringing-charges-4e8a8c2a1fe6 …

If the DA isn't going to prosecute crimes, of course the police won't bring as many cases to the DA, bringing only the ones most likely to be accepted. If police won't/can't help people get justice, of course people won't report most crimes. The stats don't tell the full story.

The Da's prosecuting crimes at a greater rate than his predecessor. Criminal justice reform, not tough on crime policy lead to a safer society.https://mobile.twitter.com/samswey/status/1419664134191284227 …

Samuel SinyangweVerified account @samsweyI analyzed data on fatal and non-fatal police shootings in America’s largest cities. Cities that reduced arrests for low level offenses reduced police shootings - and did not see crime increase relative to other cities. https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/police-arresting-fewer-people-for-minor-offenses-can-help-reduce-police-shootings/ …1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes
What % of felony arrests resulted in felony charges (not misdemeanor charges)? The data published by the DA's office doesn't say: https://www.sfdistrictattorney.org/policy/da-stat/ Looking at charge rate in isolation is meaningless if e.g. a shooter gets charged for 'disturbing the peace'.
