We are finally seeing real urgency and change in the TL. Over 500 people brought overwhelmingly into hotels over last 3 weeks. This is what we wanted and envisioned when we all worked so hard to pass our hotel legislation, for the TL and entire city.https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/SF-cleans-up-Tenderloin-dramatic-65-15383753.php …

Thank you! And now please get
@chesaboudin & DA office to deal with open drug dealings next. Yes, addiction is not a crime, but they don’t commute to Palo Alto to buy drugs! The dealings are right there, OPENLY, in the TL. Please make it stop

Fact: approximately 20% of my general felony team's caseload are drug sales. We do prosecute these cases, everyday, for better or worse. As we've learned from the war on drugs after all these decades of failure: this is not a problem we can police or prosecute our way out of.

Many of the drug dealers in SF are organized and cartel backed. They themselves may have been victims of exploitation in coming here, but now, they are exploiting others selling one of the deadliest drugs in history. Fentanyl. Does that change anything in your approach?

What I'm trying to understand is why don't we have SFPD going after the kingpins? Doesn't NYPD do this...? Seems like we could use the street dealers for information to get to the top? Is the issue that they are in Oakland? cc

Kingpins obviously do not live in the united states, and can offer transport to, for both drugs and personnel whoever they wish. The ones they choose are young with few other options, and many times locals from their foreign country. border is a government concept not real thing.
