![]() ![]() In my town, he would have gotten help immediately. THAT is a sign of a community in devolution. Second, as horrible as the death was, I thought one of the frightening things was Lee trying to wave down passersby for help and getting none. If you think crime is down go over to SF General Emergency Room on Friday or Saturday, it’s what’s called “The Knife & Gun Club”įirst, always thought there was more to this homicide given the circumstances. It’s coded as “GOA” Gone on Arrival when police arrive at a location with no complaint.Īre you waiting 3-5 hours for the police to show up for your broken car window? Vandalism? Residential burglary? Doubtful. If things slow down and they actually show up and you the victim and/or reporting party aren’t present there is no crime. You guessed correctly if you sensed that anything other than a felony in progress is coded green. Dispatch codes the calls as red/yellow/green and the MCT (mobile computer terminal) in the police cars just keep pushing the highest priority calls. On an 8 hour shift police are pretty much just going from one felony to the next. If you call 911 and report a crime in progress it will only get an immediate response if it is a felony. It’s how law enforcement agencies track and report crime statistics. If you truly believe crime is down and at historic lows you might want to research “CompStat”.

Of note, police sources say that a series of homeless people had previously been pepper-sprayed in the Marina District prior to this instance. But the lawyer for his alleged attacker claims that the former fire commissioner first pepper-sprayed the homeless man accused of beating him - which certainly would color this incident. Carmignani, for instance, was brutally struck in the head with a metal rod and hospitalized. It also omits potentially mitigating details of the individual events. This manner of coverage, however, does not capture the actual lived experience of the vast majority of San Franciscans. Lee’s death, however, was packaged in the media and on social media into a highlight reel of recent San Francisco misfortunes and crimes: large groups of young people brawling at Stonestown the abrupt closure of the mid-market Whole Foods, leaving San Franciscans just eight other Whole Foods within city limits the severe beating of former fire commissioner Don Carmignani in the Marina District, allegedly by belligerent homeless people - it all adds up to a feeling of a city coming undone.
