Now comparing 2020 with 2019.pic.twitter.com/iY3pDIvmmH
I picked the same time period because I think that is the easiest to understand.
As you can see, the number of homicides in different time periods (all 1/1 to 10/31 for each year): 2018 - 40 2019 - 33 2020 - 42 2021 - 44 Where is this supposed 48% increase in homicides?
Rape: 2018 - 384 2019 - 340 2020 - 188 2021 - 164 Now rape is waaaay down here. Not clear Boudin should get the credit but you are going to blame him for crime, at least be consistent here.
Assault: 2018 - 2239 2019 - 2130 2020 - 1816 2021 - 1963 Holy crap! Boudin is doing an awesome job here!
Robbery: 2018 - 2666 2019 - 2526 2020 - 1959 2021 - 1874 Wow, Boudin is a miracle worker!
Burglary is sadly up. I think this can be explained by drug addicts burglarizing homes instead of doing stick up to pay for their habit, but that is just my guess. 2018 - 4856 2019 - 4134 2020 - 6136 2021 - 6031 This is not classified as a violent crime but maybe it should be.
Motor vehicle theft is up quite a bit as is arson. There are very few instances of arson. Supposedly larceny is down, though I admit that is a head scratcher. I don't make these statics up, I just report on them.
Overall crime (according to the SFPD remember, not exactly huge Boudin supporters): 2018 - 49,877 2019 - 47,756 2020 - 36,850 2021 - 39,501 There you have it. Overall crime is down 20%.
