Two factors: a) They cut officers and drive them away. They had 2,160 officers and needed them. They are down to 1,651 officers (Sept 2022) Source: abc7news.com b) The San Francisco DA allows many arrested to allowed to go free. They elected a special DA to allow people to go free. Not for all crimes, but many. This emboldens people because they see so many people released without trial or sentencing for their crimes, so they are emboldened to commit crimes. The number of murders is very sad to see increased to such high levels. |

Why just make things up? The absolute number of murders is basically flat over the last decade and per-capita it's decreased[1].
