    Move Over “Hot Felon”, SFPD’s “Hot Cop” Is Taking Over

Move Over “Hot Felon”, SFPD’s “Hot Cop” Is Taking Over

In the past few weeks there's been a lot of talk about Jeremy Meeks, a California bad guy whose well-taken mug shot got him a whole lot of attention.

But now, after an amateur photographer snapped a pic of San Francisco Police Department officer Chris Kohrs, the public has some new eye candy to fawn over- and this "hot cop" is on the right side of the legal system.

It all started when a local resident saw Kohrs while he was guarding a Castro District construction zone.  He took a few pics, uploaded the photos to social media websites and from …

San Francisco Jails To Revisit Guard Gender Policies

In 2006, former San Francisco Sheriff Michael Hennessey came to a decision.  After year-on-year investigations that involved male deputies having illicit (not to mention illegal) relations with female inmates, he changed the rules.

All female inmates would be relocated to one, central facility and it could only be staffed by female deputies.

In theory it was a good idea, but in practicum, well not so much.  Less than a year after the switch, more than 30 deputies challenged that decision in court.

The sex-discrimination lawsuit was brought against both the city and the county and the defendants, most of whom were women, …

    Diversion Programs Cause A Major Drop In San Francisco Jail Population

Diversion Programs Cause A Major Drop In San Francisco Jail Population

Counties throughout California say their jails are feeling the squeeze of realignment-  and most are dealing with the problem of too many inmates and not enough beds.

But that's not the case in San Francisco, whose jails are boasting record-low populations.  At current, they're operating at just 51 percent capacity.

Those numbers are so low, according to the sheriff, that the San Francisco County Jail has one of the lowest inmate populations of anywhere in the country.
On decline since 2009
It all started a few years back when the county started placing more weight on diversion programs and supervised release.  More than …

Bad Beard Bandit Booked Into SF County Jail

A spokesperson for the San Francisco County Jail has confirmed they are detaining the area's latest serial bank robber.

That man, Gerardo Lopez, had been dubbed the Bad Beard Bandid by members of the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) due to the unattractive fake beard he wore during the heists.

The bandit is believed to be responsible for recent holdups in Ripon, Manteca, Sunnyvale, Capitola, Tracy, San Jose and Dublin.  His streak, according to investigators, began in late November and ran through Feb. 25 of this year.

Authorities have not said how much money he got away with during his bank robbery …

Dog Wash To Benefit SFPD K-9 Unit

A weekend dog wash that aims to raise $150,000 will donate all of its proceeds to help benefit canine units, including one within the SFPD.

A 24 year-old San Francisco man who was arrested last month for a naked appearance at the 16th street BART station has been rearrested on unrelated charges.

San Francisco Sheriff’s Department Deputies To Stand Trial

Two San Francisco Sheriff's Department deputies who have been accused of abusing a detainee have been ordered to stand trial.  The incident took place in 2010.  It was at that time that 38 year-old Darrell Hunter was arrested because of some sort of incident with a process server.  Hunter said that one of the deputies punched him in  the head.  Video surveillance at the jail seem to back up his story.  Those tapes show the defendant being struck in the head.  He was later thrown to the ground, handcuffed and dragged to a holding cell.

Hunter said he was never …

San Francisco Police Capture Serial Robbers

Two men who are alleged to be tied to a long list of armed robberies have been captured and detained by members of the San Francisco Police Department.

Authorities say the arrests came to play after an officer was involved in a shooting incident on March 5. A San Francisco Police Department spokesperson said that call began when they received a tip that a suspect was seen in a vehicle that had previously been reported as carjacked.   Attempts to stop the driver were unsuccessful.

Police say the suspect purposefully drove his vehicle into a pair of squad cars after they cornered him …
