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."

SF DISTRICT ATTORNEY @SFDAOfficeCheck out this new report from@SFDAOffice on our use of data to drive decision making around rapid decarceration.

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.

Correction: it's now his 15th time caught in 18 months. Can we actually lock him up? This guy is flagrantly and unapologetically laughing in our faces and exposing what a joke the "justice system" in San Francisco is.https://twitter.com/SFPDTenderloin/status/1340877753743118338 …

SFPD TenderloinVerified account @SFPDTenderloinTonight, 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.

Unless he poses a risk to the lives of constituents, incarcerating him in this moment of pandemic is of greater risk, specifically epemiologically so, as the recognized epicenter of this crisis our mass incarceration system poses existential risks.https://twitter.com/davidminpdx/status/1272362171796647936 …

On some level I disagree. He has individually and repeatedly shown a lack of respect for EVERYONE in the community (who are most all dealing with uncertainty, fear, and anxiety from covid). Maybe we need to reduce prison time further but this individual should be in there.

Maybe normally, although the costs of incarceration are real and still significant. But in this moment, our mass incarceration poses such significant existential risks, our media calls to release even the violent.https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2020/04/10/prison-violent-offender-jail-coronavirus/?arc404=true …
