Just spoke briefly with a cop from @SFPDNorthern.
Incredibly thoughtful man.
He said some burglars have been caught 8+ times yet are back on the street. Said, "what are we waiting for? Somebody to get hurt?"
Neighbors - get video cameras. PD needs footage to solve crime.
"We must act with urgency to ensure that detention is used only when the risk of great bodily harm to another person outweighs the community public health consequences. Public health and public safety depend on it." @chesaboudin @SFDAOfficehttps://twitter.com/SFDAOffice/status/1333825561144147970 …

@michelletandler , Of our 835 prisoners, our@SF_DPH has called for@chesaboudin to release another 235 do you have opinions on which? To do otherwise is a existential epidemiological threat with our California ICU capacity approaching critical.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

1) its not permanently this way. 2) its not because these crimes no longer matter. 3) We should find some other way to address this than incarceration, incarceration is always a expensive, unhealthy, and dangerous injustice.

Here's the problem - outside of prison time, the consequences aren't deterring crime. We can't accept the constant public looting of pharmacies or car burglaries as normal - there has to be a deterrence. Right now there clearly isn't, and it's unfair to those who are burglurized.

What consequences do you propose for the man who was just caught for the 14th time this year in a stolen vehicle? Clearly whatever "consequences" he's faced haven't deterred him, and he's probably gotten away with a number of heists as well.
