Stop Crime SF is backing a proposed state law by Senator Scott Wiener to close a legal loophole that makes it difficult to prosecute car break-ins. San Francisco is experiencing a car break-in epidemic and this common sense change in the law will give prosecutors the tool they need to put criminals out of business.

Smashed glass on curbs and sidewalks is the new normal in San Francisco with tens of thousands of car break-ins reported annually. Our criminal justice system needs the right incentives for offenders to change their behavior. Lawbreakers need to know they will be held accountable if they violate the terms of probation. And judges need to know citizens are watching. Read our full OpEd published in the San Francisco Chronicle.

District Attorney George Gascon and Stop Crime SF board member Nancy Tung discuss the impact of Prop 47 and San Francisco's property crime problem before a full house in the SHARP community room.

Open letter to Mayor Farrell — San Franciscans need you to address the daily nightmare we face with record-high property crime and car-break ins. As you determine the city's budget, please fund our police department for success. Community policing alone is not the solution. Please remember the need for centralized investigative capability when funding the SFPD.

Stop Crime SF applauds Police Chief Bill Scott’s announcement to assign officers in San Francisco neighborhoods dedicated to car break-ins. Our members spoke at City Hall to express the frustration and fear we feel in the neighborhoods. Stop Crime SF supports a focused strategy to fight property crime that has reached epidemic proportions.

Stop Crime SF was instrumental in the passage of two public safety ordinances at the San Francisco Board of Supervisors in the fall of 2017. We focused on our city's epidemic of burglarized cars and broken windows — the highest in the nation.
