San Francisco’s district attorney says the biggest impediment to cleaning up the fentanyl and crime crisis in the city are the courts letting dealers off the hook.
San Francisco's district attorney said Thursday that the biggest impediment to cleaning up the fentanyl and crime crisis in the city are the courts letting dealers off the hook.
They were sentiments echoed by others in a packed meeting inside the St. Anthony Foundation, and they came about two weeks after a man was shot nearby in broad daylight. “This situation is becoming more and more violent. We have several shootings and stabbings and killings here literally over one week,” said St. Anthony Foundation CEO Nils Behnke. “The problem that we have here is that organized criminals work with impunity and without apparent consequences.”
