‘Hey, where are you?” Hannah Ege texted her husband, Sheria Musyoka. He’d left on a morning jog and had been gone for an hour and a half. Hannah was home, taking care of their three-year-old son. She began to freak out. She called and texted and called again. He never answered.

Speeding and drunk — at just shy of eight in the morning — Jerry Lyons barreled through a red light at an intersection in a stolen Ford Explorer. Lyons struck and killed Musyoka, a 26-year-old Dartmouth grad who had moved to San Francisco only ten days earlier with his wife and their son. After clipping Musyoka, Lyons collided with another car, causing an eight-car pileup that sent several other people to the hospital.

The San Francisco police arrested Lyons on multiple charges that morning in February, but this was not the first time he’d been arrested for drunk driving in a stolen car. On December 3, he had been arrested for driving under the influence, driving a stolen vehicle, and driving without a license. Before that, he’d been released from prison after serving time for a grand-theft conviction; in fact, Lyons had been arrested at least seven times in the Bay Area since his release from prison, and his rap sheet goes back a decade. Still, San Francisco’s district attorney, Chesa Boudin, delayed pressing charges against Lyons until a toxicology report confirmed that he had been inebriated, which, more than a month and a half later in January, it did. Lyons then had 14 days to turn himself in to the DA’s office. On the 13th day, he killed Musyoka. While COVID-era difficulties might have accounted for the medical examiner’s slow speed in returning test results, a different DA could have chosen to move forward sooner — taking necessary precautions — and charged Lyons with a DUI based on observable factors alone, such as the results of Lyons’s field sobriety test, his erratic driving in a stolen vehicle, and close scrutiny of his behavior.

Hannah Ege expressed her grief and pain to a local TV news station, railing at the district attorney’s reluctance to lock up repeat offenders. Whom does she blame for her husband’s death? “The DA,” she said. “This freak accident was no freak accident. It was someone who was out in the public who should not have been out in public.”

The Lyons mayhem is not an isolated case in the city by the bay. On New Year’s Eve, a parolee on the run from a robbery — also in a stolen car — sped through a red light, striking and killing two women, 60-year-old Elizabeth Platt and 27-year-old Hanako Abe, who were in the crosswalk. The driver, Troy McAlister, had been released twice by the district attorney in the previous year: the first time because Boudin refuses to pursue three-strike cases, of which McAlister’s was one; the second — as recently as December 20, when the SFPD arrested McAlister for driving a stolen car — because Boudin kicked the case to the state parole officers, who did nothing.

Welcome to San Francisco’s latest idiocy, a new experiment in governance where everything is allowed but nothing is permitted. A paradox, you might say, but take a walk down Market Street, down that great avenue in a great city in a great nation, and note the desolation of the empty streets, the used needles tossed on the sidewalks, and the boarded-up windows on storefronts. Consider that, at various unpredictable times in the last year, it has been illegal — for the sake of public safety during COVID — to run a mom-and-pop corner shop or to serve food at sidewalk cafés. Reflect for a moment that, since time immemorial, it has been illegal to build any new housing, because of the most onerous and confusing zoning laws in the known universe. Mark Zuckerberg can apparently influence national elections by tweaking algorithms, but he is powerless before the planning commission when it comes to building apartments for his employees. The city has banned plastic straws, plastic bags, and McDonald’s Happy Meals with toys. And yet, all the while, drug dealers sell their wares — COVID or no COVID — openly and freely at all hours of the day and night, users shoot up or pop fentanyl in public and defecate on the street, robbers pillage cars and homes with the ease of Visigoth raiders, and the district attorney frees repeat offenders who go on to sow disorder, pain, devastation, and grief. A profound melancholy hangs in the air of this city, punctuated only by the shrieks of a junkie dreaming of demons or by the rat-tat-tat-bam of the occasional firework. (Or was that a gun?) ...

How did it come to this? On January 8, 2020, Mayor London Breed swore in Chesa Boudin as the new district attorney of San Francisco in front of a packed house at the Herbst Theater. Boudin won the election by a nose in a runoff, with oily promises to feel the pain of all parties to a crime, both victims and perpetrators. He made pledges to enact “restorative justice” and prison reform through “decarceration.” U.S. Supreme Court justice Sonia Sotomayor recorded a congratulatory video message, which was played at the swearing-in ceremony for Boudin and the crowd. “Chesa, you have undertaken a remarkable challenge today,” the justice said. “The hope you reflect is a great beacon to many.”

The task before Boudin was already monumental. Before he assumed his office, San Francisco ranked No. 1 in the nation in property crime. On average, thieves broke 60 car windows per day, with impunity. In 2014, California voters approved Proposition 47, a reform measure that reduced many felonies to ticketed misdemeanors, such as theft of less than $950 and hard-drug possession. There were more drug addicts on the streets than there were students in the schools. Tent encampments of homeless people had sprouted in every nook and alley and under every highway overpass. Commuters faced a daily gauntlet in the form of an appalling humanitarian crisis in the streets.

But Boudin immediately refused to take any responsibility for these issues. Among his first acts was to fire seven veteran prosecutors who were not on board with his radical views. (Over 30 prosecutors have left during his tenure because they don’t want to work for him.) Next, Boudin abolished the cash-bail system, so offenders are able to walk free after arrest. He rarely brings a case to trial: Out of the 6,333 cases to land on his desk since taking office, he has gone to trial only 23 times. This is one-tenth the rate of his predecessor, George Gascón, who was hardly tough on crime. Since the killing of George Floyd, there has been a shortage of cops, as officers retire in record numbers. San Francisco has also moved to defund the police, with plans to shift $120 million in law-enforcement funding to restorative-justice programs, housing support, and a guaranteed-income pilot, among other ideas.

To where does Boudin’s “great beacon” point? Over the last year, there have been more deaths from drug overdoses in San Francisco than from COVID-19. Walgreens has closed ten of its drugstores in the city because its shelves were being pillaged freely by shoplifters. According to SFPD’s CompStat, compared with last year, arson has increased 52 percent, motor-vehicle theft is up 21 percent, and burglaries have seen a 59 percent increase. One largely Asian neighborhood, the Richmond district, has reported a 342 percent spike in burglaries this year compared with last. Admittedly, some numbers are down, such as those for larceny and robbery. But police attribute these declines to the pandemic, since there are fewer opportunities for would-be criminals to commit such crimes as people shelter in place. One neighborhood association sent a letter in February to Boudin and Mayor Breed, begging them to restore public safety. The association also posted it on the Internet. “Our neighborhood can’t wait another day,” they wrote. “Our homes are repeatedly broken into and robbed. Our merchants suffer unsustainable losses from theft and smashed windows. Employees are threatened with guns. Residents are robbed at gunpoint on our own streets. The sound of gunshots is no longer unusual.” ...

Now, what rough beast slouches its way towards San Francisco? With a district attorney who won’t prosecute crimes, how long will it be until an anxious Google engineer defends himself from being harassed by a madman? Will envious arsonists light the Salesforce Tower on fire as a jacked-up mob courses through the streets burning and looting the Painted Ladies?

A desperate sun struggles through the fog. There may be one ray of hope. The city has recently approved the effort to recall Chesa Boudin from office. Locals could begin downloading signature-gathering petitions on March 12. If 10 percent of registered voters sign the petition, all voters may get the chance to vote the bum out. But even if they do, it will remain tragic for Musyoka, Platt, Abe, and others like them that the day did not come soon enough.

Business leaders sound the alarm over San Francisco’s post-pandemic fate
Mark Calvey Jun 21, 2022

Business leaders are increasingly concerned about San Francisco's fate as more workers and companies embrace remote work.

San Francisco must take dramatic action to stem the outflow of residents and businesses, as remote work has cut deeply and permanently into the workforce who used to flood into downtown every day, according to a new report.

Advance SF, working with the Bay Area Council Economic Institute, is calling on San Francisco to pause new taxes and regulations as the city seeks to recover from the pandemic’s economic fallout. The group also wants the city to conduct exit interviews with companies that have left San Francisco to learn what factors went into their decisions to leave.

“We are working to get a discussion going about the cost of living and working in San Francisco, because the cost has become so high,” Wade Rose, president of Advance SF, told me Tuesday. “If you’re a tech startup and you can hire an excellent engineer in Columbus, Pittsburgh or Salt Lake City for $70,000 a year, and you have trouble finding similar high level of talent for $300,000 a year in the Bay Area, you’re gonna think long and hard about Columbus, Pittsburgh or Salt Lake City.”

Construction of more workforce housing is also a priority for Advance SF, a business-backed group that was formerly known as the Committee on Jobs. Advance SF is placing a greater focus on safety and quality of life issues in San Francisco, given that problems tied to those issues hurt tourism and spur workers and companies to avoid coming into the city. Advance SF is also looking beyond the traditional downtown area of the Financial District to include the South of Market Area and along Market Street to the Castro neighborhood.

San Francisco is Another Portugal -- Worst Covid Wave Ever
Never-ending Chronic Covid grips city

Igor Chudov
8 hr ago
The icon of liberalism, as well as a bastion of “support for science” San Francisco, believes in vaccines. It is over 90% vaccinated. ...

San Francisco's COVID situation is replicated in thousands of highly vaccinated places. I wrote about Portugal, showing how the country with “no one left to vaccinate” is gripped by endless waves of Covid. ...

Ba.5 is just starting to become predominant in San Francisco, unlike in Portugal where it dominated since a month ago, and that is not a good sign for a beautiful coastal city whose residents keep catching endless cases of Covid.

Do you feel sorry for San Franciscans, who get ill so often? I do.


I don't. They should have known not to take the dangerous and ineffective vaxx. The fraud signals were and are off the charts.

That works well in many counties even in the bay area. However I'm 99% sure in SF judges do not look at any evidence or paperwork, unless the case gets media attention they rubberstamp everyone guilty as the corrupt city is always on the verge of BK so they take all the money they can possibly get.

https://spectatorworld.com/topic/cost-decarceration-criminal-justice-reform/


One of the most frustrating aspects of America’s necessary and important criminal justice reform debate is the cavalier attitude with which (usually, though not always) well-off advocates living in posh suburban enclaves or luxury city high-rises push policies whose downside risks will be borne by a tiny slice of our most vulnerable citizens, who live in places most of those advocates wouldn’t dare walk through by themselves on a summer night.

... while emptying prisons and cutting back on policing may not change a whole lot in neighborhoods like DC’s Georgetown, New York’s Scarsdale or LA’s Beverly Hills, they could wreak havoc in Brooklyn’s Brownsville, Chicago’s Austin or Baltimore’s Belair-Edison neighborhoods. Yet the troubling disparities illustrated by the drastically unequal distribution of violent crime in America are largely ignored by activists and the media.

In fact, those who do call for more attention to be given to the violence in America’s most dangerous neighborhoods in cities like Detroit, Chicago, Baltimore, New Orleans, Philadelphia and St. Louis are often chastised for doing so. We’re often accused of fearmongering and distracting from the fact that nationally crime is quite low, relative to modern peaks.

https://www.bizjournals.com/sanfrancisco/news/2022/07/27/prologis-ceo-hamid-moghadam-armed-robbery-crime.html


Jul 27, 2022, 5:00pm PDT
Prologis CEO Hamid Moghadam feels no one is safe in the company’s hometown of San Francisco after he was robbed at gunpoint by several men.

The June 26 incident, until now not publicly reported, highlights rising concerns over crime and other challenges facing the Bay Area and adds to worries more residents and companies will opt to leave the region.

In a wide-ranging interview this week, Moghadam shared with me how the experience has made him more vocal in urging San Francisco’s leadership to make public safety their top priority. Moghadam founded Prologis (NYSE: PLD), the world's largest industrial landlord, in the city in 1983.

The robbery occurred as he pulled his car up in front of his house in tony Pacific Heights, a neighborhood that is home to Sen. Dianne Feinstein, Rep. Nancy Pelosi and other luminaries. ...

The possibility of the company’s departure also came up in the letter he sent shortly after the robbery to San Francisco Mayor London Breed, the city’s Board of Supervisors and Gov. Gavin Newsom about his robbery and urging them to place a higher priority on public safety.

“I recognize we live in an urban environment, but the level of crime, including violent behavior, has become absolutely unacceptable,” Moghadam wrote. “Obviously, the majority of voters feel this way, which is why they voted to recall our district attorney.
“Ten years ago, we acquired a larger company that was headquartered in Denver, but I insisted we keep our headquarters in San Francisco. Today, I am not sure I would make the same decision,” Moghadam wrote. “It is now difficult for me to tell potential candidates that they should move to San Francisco. We pay some of the highest taxes, local and state, in the nation yet we have no sense of security. Protecting public safety should be the government’s top priority — that is the foundation to a successful city.
“I am deeply concerned that our city may be so far down the path toward decline that we may never recover — or at least not for a long, long time,” Moghadam wrote. ...

“If you're paying so much for housing and paying such high level of taxes, you expect some basic government services, like public safety and being able to walk down the street without being accosted by homeless people or having to walk over human excrement to get to your office, which I do every day,” Moghadam said. “When a community develops a reputation for being unsafe or just a really awful environment to go to a meeting, it loses business and it’s hard to bring back.”

“You walk around the streets of San Francisco and it looks literally like a third world country. It’s just terrible,” said Moghadam, who the Business Times honored last year with its Most Admired CEO Lifetime Achievement Award. “We're spending a ton of money, so it’s not a money issue.”

Prior to the robbery, Moghadam said his involvement with civic issues focused on slowing the migration of businesses out of San Francisco, specifically citing the loss of Charles Schwab headquarters to the Dallas-Fort Worth area. The Bay Area also saw Tesla, McKesson and Oracle move their headquarters to Texas in recent years.


It would be wonderful if Pelosi also gets to experience the direct result of her Democrat soft-on-crime policies in her exclusive neighborhood.

Seattle business owners are installing 1-ton concrete blocks on city streets to prevent some of the 13,300 homeless people in the Dem-led city from camping out on the sidewalks
One-ton concrete blocks have been installed on Seattle's sideways in a bid to stop RVs and homeless tents being put up
The blocks are so heavy that they can't be moved without specialized equipment - making them burdensome for the city to remove
Despite it being illegal to place ecology blocks, sidewalks or parking spaces, anonymous residents continue to plant them in the city

... But now, parents say they have had to resort to conducting 'sweeps' of public parks to make sure there are no needles on the ground before allowing their kids to play on swing sets as the encampments continue to grow.

'How do we get to a place where we think that's normal and a part of life in Seattle?' one resident asked Fox News.

The downtown areas of San Francisco; Cleveland; and Portland, Oregon, have all had slow recoveries from pre-pandemic levels of activity, according to a new study.

The once-popular neighborhoods have seen a sharp decline in recent years, researchers at the University of California, Berkeley found using GPS location data from 18 million cellphones, then comparing activity from before 2019 to activity from March through May of this year.

San Francisco only has 31% of the activity downtown compared to its pre-pandemic levels, putting the city in last place of the 62 cities measured, the study found.

The Castro Merchants Association sent a letter to San Francisco city officials telling them they plan to stop paying taxes if San Francisco doesn’t do more to address burglaries, vandalism, people with behavioral health problems, and the homeless camping wherever they want.

Police resources will not be used to address these issues but will instead be used to arrest owners and shut down businesses of those who do not pay the taxes.

A man wakes up in San Francisco, has breakfast, showers, and gets ready for work. As he opens his front door he discovers a fresh deuce on the stoop of his seven-million-dollar row home. In a previous time, he would have noticed it earlier in the morning when he went to fetch the San Francisco Chronicle and The New York Times or Wall Street Journal newspapers.

Today he stumbles past the yellow greasy and red foul-smelling excrement (a sign of poor diet or intestinal bleeding) on his way to see if his Range Rover is still where he left it the previous night. He notices the depositor of the morning gift two stoops down curled up in an unwashed mess, his pants around his ankles and his buttcheeks smeared with evidence of his offering. Completely out in heroin dreamland, the perp’s right hand limply grasps a clear and orange syringe with black etched lettering along the side that reads: Courtesy of the law-abiding tax-paying citizens of San Francisco.

Last year this man paid $59,000 to the state of California for the privilege of this morning’s experience, and another $122,000 to the federal government which is in the process of funding thousands more armed IRS enforcers to make sure this man or any other working citizen doesn’t get any funny ideas about keeping one dollar more than they’re allowed from the fruits of their own labor, by a government that offers them nothing in return and openly detests them. ...

This man will again soon vote for the people responsible for this soft anarcho-tyranny that blesses his days and exploits his labor earnings while refusing to provide a modicum of protection of property or liberty. This man like millions of others in failing Democrat-controlled urban hellscapes is not a fast learner.

So there are perhaps a few sane people in San Francisco.
