Ask anyone who has lived there long enough and they will tell you SFPOA pins their ineptitude and laziness on every successive DA. Every time we try to force them to do their job they fight it with great success (for them). They regularly make $400k/yr, they can do their job.
The DA is doing nothing it would literally be the same if his office was empty. Police are understaffed for our size city and also not bothering to arrest as many as they should because of Prop 47. I’m no Police booster but ignoring Chesa’s little experiment is willfully blind.

This article is from 10yrs ago and nothing has changed. Police Chief asked for more money to hire more officers, city said okay but stop abusing overtime. Guess what they did. Hired zero officers and used funds to pay overtime to existing officers.https://www.sfexaminer.com/news/sfs-new-police-chief-defends-soaring-overtime-spending/ …
