      It’s true that many in prison are over-sentenced; that needs reform. But California has more crime than Canada (eg 3.5x homicide rate). In SF, melting down started in earnest after https://www.sfchronicle.com/crime/article/SF-driver-accused-of-killing-two-women-is-15840271.php …, “prolific offenders” aren’t getting punished: https://twitter.com/sfpdtenderloin/status/1340877753743118338 …. HTH

      Tonight, for the fifteenth (15th) time in 18 months, and the 3rd time in 20 days, we are booking the same suspect at county jail for felony motor vehicle theft. This motorcycle, stolen yesterday, recovered by TL cops and returned to its very grateful owner tonight.

      violent crime is down, including in the tenderloin, and homicides are not as up as the US average. property crimes are a factor of the pandemic (they’re also way up here). it just seems strange to me that people who say they’re for prison reform are against, well, prison reform

      like, it’s not actually less safe in SF going by Compstat, and you’d have to free 75% of prisoners to get down to the incarceration rate i live with. incarceration is clearly not linked to crime rate, so why is this the DA’s fault?

      1 complaint against @chesaboudin is releasing repeat offenders. Reasonable for proponents of CJ reform to insist on competence of those in charge. Btw, tourists (25 mln/yr in 875k city) were targets of many pre-covid crimes. Would be interesting to see crime trends against locals

      just walking thru this on first principles; if they were repeat offenders it’s because they committed a crime during the earlier, more punitive approach. if that’s the case, then is it fair to say that prison isn’t acting as a deterrent? again, SF afaik is technically safer rn

      Maksim Ioffe Retweeted SFPD Tenderloin

      There’s all sorts of examples to draw on, including repeat offenders whose priors should be disregarded for reasons you alluded to. Also cases where it’s clear the system isn’t working (eg https://twitter.com/sfpdtenderloin/status/1340877753743118338 …) Details matter, and it’s fair to scrutinize every system failure

      right to be clear the proposal here is that more people should go to jail because property crimes have gone up, right? that’s what’s at stake

      I’d say that person who keeps stealing cars from above tweet needs to go to jail.

      Anecdotally, I’m not seeing much opposition to CJ reform locally, maybe some knee jerk “is this progressive DA gonna be another @chesaboudin”. (Guilty of it myself). That’s why this occurred to me:https://twitter.com/maksim_ioffe/status/1352774570227322886 …

      P.S. It's possible that @chesaboudin's legacy will be that voters will assume criminal justice reform cannot be done without undermining public safety. DA candidates running on better criminal justice reform platforms will be compared to him for years to come.

      Btw, in the US, various forms of criminal justice reform have bipartisan support. Even Trump supported and signed into law a significant overhaulhttps://www.vox.com/future-perfect/2018/12/18/18140973/state-of-the-union-trump-first-step-act-criminal-justice-reform …

          Anecdotally, it is, and it’s what’s driving the backlash. Hard to compare pre and post covid numbers, because of lack of tourists and other effects of lockdowns. If you’re a local, many people report feeling much less safe. Add to this @SFDAOffice stonewalling of info requestshttps://twitter.com/TheMarinaTimes/status/1352387553941307393 …
