Thank you @DeanPreston for your partnership in 2020 as we piloted this program in D5 to support small businesses impacted by vandalism. Victim services shouldn't depend on police successfully making an arrest. Great to see our pilot expand city wide.https://www.sfchronicle.com/crime/article/S-F-store-owners-in-desperate-time-after-16462347.php …

Here we go again, blaming the police.

Check the SFPD clearance rates. They're as low as 3%. That means they close three cases in one hundred. Do you think that is acceptable?

Well this is telling me that there are not enough resources.

Or that the POA is deflecting attention for their own mismanagement. Look at the data and tell me that the SFPD a major contributor to increased crime in the city.https://www.sanfranciscopolice.org/stay-safe/crime-data/clearance-rates-dashboard …

DA's refusal to charge criminals is directly affecting clearance rates.pic.twitter.com/byIRDHZ6uy

The DA can't charge when the cops fail to deliver sufficcient evidence. In America you're innocent until proven guilty; not when deemed guilty by law enforcement. The onus is on law enforcement to provide sufficient evidence to charge an alleged criminal.

True except that
@chesaboudin chooses not to charge even when there is enough evidence.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -
That's not correct in the slightest Linda. Charges are based on a standard; not a choice. https://sfbos.org/section-14-das-standard-charging-cases …

Replying to @batman_vc @ponilinda and
The standards are clear, as they should be. SFPD needs to deliver cases with sufficient evidence to press charges. That's their job. They are highly paid professionals that should deliver high quality work; anything less is an affront to our civil liberties.

Interesting how before Chesa SFDA filed twice as many cases but sure you can continue blaming SFPD for not delivering cases with sufficient evidence. No doubt that once Chesa is recalled the SFPD clearance rate will go up.pic.twitter.com/KCk38tvI4x
