crimes, especially in oakland. >> as the governor pointed out, we're experiencing a raise in crime. the crime rates here are excessive and they need to be dealt with. >> three attorneys from the judge advocate general, or jag, have been assigned to work with the da's office. the goal is to help investigate, analyze and prosecute felonies. governor newsom saying an arrest isn't enough. justice demands a suspects are appropriately prosecuted. >> it is consistent with the governor's plan to bring the california highway patrol the surge that is coming to alameda county. >> carl chan is part of the campaign to recall da price. he met with governor newsom along with other community leaders, in january to discuss solutions to oakland's rising crime. chan claims da price is soft on crime and told newsom there needs to be more prosecutions. he welcomes the governor's action. >> when our police departments you know, are, you know, doing a good job of apprehending criminals. but unfortunately, you know, the da, you know,

catch and release would not work well, i think it's a terrible idea. >> i think it's an absurd, terrible idea. brandon woods is the alameda county public defender. >> he argues that prosecutions are happening in alameda county and that this will just lead to mass incarcerate, especially of people of color. >> i've got a concern about people who are going to come in and maybe litigate a try case to try to negotiate. cases aren't familiar with our culture, aren't familiar with the history of abuse by the oakland police department, aren't aware of actually what happens in our communities. >> christine soto deberry is executive director of the prosecutor alliance of california. she adds that this should not reflect on da price's ability to do her job. but the governor often steps in to help different counties. >> when we have the opportunity to get support from the governor or the attorney general or the highway patrol, da price is wise. and opening her arms and welcoming that support and those additional resources in oakland, anser hassan abc seven news california attorney general rob bonta spoke with abc seven news

earlier today about the plan to send prosecutors to alameda county. >> that's what we do when there are when the evidence and the data show what exists here in oakland, that there are spikes in crime, uh- uh- much higher than other levels in the state of california. so we need to be responsive to it. we need to hold people accountable, accountable, and we need to work together to deliver the results that the people of oakland and the east bay deserve, and they deserve their leaders working together and we're delivering that. today's announcement comes at a really tumultuous time in oakland. >> so earlier today on getting answers. anchor kristen sze asked abc seven news insider phil matier will this be viewed as a strong statement, a smart move on the governor's part? it's both. >> it's meant as a smart move in that, okay, let's say, he says i'm bringing in prosecutors to help out, whether it's for organized crime or very serious crimes or something like that. in other words, nothing that sort of violates the progressive ideal of we don't want to just lock up everybody, but we're going to go after, as they like

to say, the bad actors. uh, so it's good politics. on the governor's part. and it also makes a statement to the rest of the country that when asked, he says, yes, i am doing this. i am making these moves. this type of stepped up enforcement is not new in the bay area. >> you may remember last april, governor newsom announced a partnership to combat fentanyl trafficking in san francisco. chp officers started patrolling the tenderloin and south of market neighborhoods. abc seven news tracked the numbers and found just in the first three months, officers seized 103 kilos of narcotics. nearly half of that fentanyl, more than 300 suspected drug dealers were arrested at the santa clara county sheriff's office is cracking down on thieves with its new retail theft task force. >> it's already getting results. check out the pictures that they tweeted. officers set up a blitz operation at the target in cupertino, which has been robbed more than 50 times this year. the operation yesterday netted seven suspects caught stealing merchandise. the sheriff's

office says that similar operations will be set up around the county to combat the rise in crime. ten years ago, california voters passed prop 47 to reduce prison overcrowding. it's done that, but the mayors of san francisco and san jose are among those who say it has caused more harm than good. abc seven news south bay reporter dustin dorsey explains the plan to fix what they believe is a mistake. >> it was supposed to make us safer, but a growing number of people believe it's doing the exact opposite. approved in 2014, prop 47 aimed to lower the prison population by reducing most drug possession offenses and thefts of property valued under $950 from felonies to misdemeanors. but san jose mayor matt mehan is worried about the unintended consequence. >> a small number of people brazenly commit crime without fear of accountability. we people are so trapped in addiction that they refuse services and subsist in misery on our streets. >> mehan and san francisco mayor

london breed are among those hoping to see prop 47 reform on the november 2024 ballot. the petition calls to reclassify theft with two or more prior convictions as a felony. mental health and addiction services will be mandated for felony charges, and refusal will lead to up to three years in prison and fentanyl dealers will face felonies. marlene harden lost her 18 year old daughter to drugs. she supports the bill change. >> we will never get ahead of this problem until fentanyl dealers face serious consequences. i urge everyone to sign this measure so we can get it on the ballot. the safety and lives of our loved ones depend on it. the goal of prop 47 was to lower incarceration rates, which are. >> abc seven news data team found to be the case. however, california's homelessness population has gone up. mehan says 47 prevents judges from mandating mental health or addiction treatment. supporters of the reforms say prop 47 has also led to a rise in retail theft, with no true threat of punishment in place. our data found a spike at first, but an overall downward trend in

shoplifting after that, californians for safety and justice executive director christine soto deberry says jail time does not deter crime. the threat of being caught does. those are the most effective solutions we can have currently. >> most property crime only about 10% result in arrests. we can do better than that. and those are the types of solutions that will actually reduce crime. >> deberry says the data needs to drive policy decisions in order to create a safer community in the bay area and beyond. dustin dawsey abc seven news. >> a group of doctors and public health professionals in san francisco is voicing opposition to proposition f on the upcoming city ballot. prop f would cut off public assistance to people on welfare who are suspected of using drugs unless they agree to enter a drug treatment program. opponents are saying that's not only ineffective, but also creates barriers to getting real help for those who need it. >> this measure was not written by any licensed substance use disorder treatment providers, nor were any consultant. this measure was written around a

singular polling question, and has no evidence to prove it will work. to address substance use disorder in any meaningful way. prop f blurs the line between care and punishment. it harms people for their illness and dangerously undermines overdose prevention and recovery. >> voting is already underway for the march 5th primary election. all registered voters in california receive a vote by mail ballot thanks to a post pandemic law signed in 2021. california primary is on march 5th, last day to register to vote is february 20th. >> a muni bus crashed in daly city this afternoon. it went over the sidewalk and stopped between a traffic pole and a tree. this happened along the 14 and 14 are line in the mission, and flournoy streets area. this route runs from the ferry building in san francisco to the daly city bart station. the sfmta says to expect delays as a result. there's no information about what caused this crash or whether anyone was hurt. we're still checking on that. in clayton, a broken water main

an hour ago. sky seven got this video of the single engine two seater nose down just south of poplar beach in half moon bay. this is a couple of miles north of the ritz carlton. if you know that area. the pilot was not there when the san mateo county sheriff's office got to the beach. authorities are still looking for whoever was on board that plane. and meantime, new details on another plane crash. a deadly one also near half moon bay. the preliminary report from the ntsb released today confirms witness statements show that the plane was in distress, with the

engine making a coughing, choking noise immediately after takeoff from the half moon bay airport. their report includes this image showing the plane's flight path. it took off about 7 p.m. on january 14th and climbed to 250ft in the air. that was as high as it got. the last recorded data point was less than a minute after takeoff. debris was found in the ocean nearby. the bodies of three of the four people on board that plane have now been recovered. >> developing news on the progress to restore power to p-g-and-e's customers, here is a look at the outage map. it's down to about 8500 customers without power. check out the progress p-g-and-e's made during sunday's storm. nearly 400,000 customers lost power. a san francisco street has reopened after crews patched a sinkhole that developed yesterday. this is in the mission 14th street between guerrero and valencia. yesterday, a car went through the sinkhole and got two flat tires. took crews more than 12 hours to repair the road. cause of the sinkhole still has not

clearly you can see the storm track is going to start shifting to our north as high pressure will be building in. and that means we have a dry weekend. we also have dry conditions heading into next week. let's talk about rainfall. here are the totals 9600. in ben lomond almost a half an inch san francisco oakland. concord 4100 san jose. just over a half an inch of rain. a third of an inch in santa rosa, 2000/700 in san rafael, napa. picking up 3000/900 of an inch. so not bad for one system. a live view from our oakland airport camera looks pretty good. oakland 50 degrees san francisco 52. along with san mateo, san jose, you're at 53 degrees and a lovely view from our golden gate bridge camera right now. temperatures are falling. you know, this morning there was a frost advisory in the north bay. more areas going under that frost advisory late tonight. it is already in the 40s. petaluma, napa, fairfield, concord, livermore, 50 right now, though in santa rosa. and a live view from sutro tower. camera. here are the headlines through this evening. we're

is different than other money managers. (other money manager) different how? aren't we all just looking for the hottest stocks? (fisher investments) nope. we use diversified strategies to position our clients' portfolios for their long-term goals. (other money manager) but you still sell investments that generate high commissions for you, right? (fisher investments) no, we don't sell commission products. we're a fiduciary, obligated to act in our client's best interest. (other money manager) so when do you make more money, only when your clients make more money? (fisher investments) yep. we do better when our clients do better. at fisher investments, we're clearly different. this ad? typical. politicians... "he's bad. i'm good." blah, blah. let's shake things up. with katie porter. porter refuses corporate pac money. and leads the fight to ban congressional stock trading. katie porter. taking on big banks to make housing more affordable. and drug company ceos to stop their price gouging. most politicians just fight each other. while katie porter fights for you. for senate - democrat katie porter. i'm katie porter and i approve this message.

growing up, my parents wanted me to become a doctor or an engineer. those are good careers! but i chose a different path. first, as mayor and then in the legislature. i enshrined abortion rights in our california constitution. in the face of trump, i strengthened hate crime laws and lowered the costs for the middle class. now i'm running to bring the fight to congress. you were always stubborn. and on that note, i'm evan low, and i approve this message.

55 or 65 miles an hour. >> this plan has been in the works since 2018. why has this taken so long? >> it's a great question. um, one was the need to come up with this new, uh, toll collection and accounting system, the system that we have now is a little over ten years old. bay area commuters have been waiting for it, but it would be better to just go back and forth with out hesitating and stopping, slowing down. >> in 2017, a bay bridge toll worker was killed after a drunk driver crashed into the booth during the pandemic. human toll collectors were removed, but the empty booths have also been a hazard. in october of 2023, a semi truck crashed into a toll booth on the westbound lanes of the richmond-san rafael bridge and the driver was killed. >> this is safer because i'm not stopping and i'm not worried. worried about, uh, a car behind me. according to the bay area

toll authority, the process will take 6 to 8 months at each location. >> the bay bridge will be the last one in march of 2027. commuters like christian santana hope the mtc rethink their priority list in the morning, especially in the bay bridge. >> it will be way better, but for now, a look into the mtc's plan for more open road tolling can be seen on one bay area bridge page. >> you can actually see the future for uh- right now at the benicia-martinez bridge over the far left hand side in san francisco, luz pena, abc seven news. >> the golden gate bridge is not part of this timeline. as we look live there. that's because it's the only bridge in the bay area not owned by the state. but there are also plans to change the toll plaza here by adding an overhead tolling system called a gantry, similar to what will eventually see on other bridges coming up. >> the results of the investigation into classified documents found in president

biden's possession. democrats aren't worried about the results as much as they are about something else. in that report. i'm j.r. stone, we are live in las vegas, inching our way closer to the super bowl. >> you're about to learn about a historic las vegas hotel with ties to the bay area. that'

entresto is the #1 heart failure brand prescribed by cardiologists. it was proven superior at helping people stay alive and out of the hospital. don't take entresto if pregnant; it can cause harm or death to an unborn baby. don't take entresto with an ace inhibitor or aliskiren, or if you've had angioedema with an ace or arb. the most serious side effects are angioedema, low blood pressure, kidney problems,

or high blood potassium. ask your doctor about entresto for heart failure. you want to see who we are as americans? i'm peter dixon and in kenya... or high blood potassium. we built a hospital that provides maternal care. as a marine... we fought against the taliban and their crimes against women. and in hillary clinton's state department... we took on gender-based violence in the congo. now extremists are banning abortion and contraception right here at home. so, i'm running for congress to help stop them. for your family... and mine. i approved this message because this is who we are.

in the bay area. >> farnham was born and raised in central california and moved to the south bay in the 50s. he then spent time moving around northern california before landing in cave junction, oregon . police believe he also spent time in nevada, north dakota, idaho, and alaska. >> we believe there may be other families and other agencies looking for closure in decades old cases, and we have shared information regarding farnham and his mode of operation through official law enforcement databases in the meantime, the families are finding some solace in the solving of these cases. >> i cannot express my gratitude enough for the police department. all of them worked extremely hard to bring closure to our family. >> tara campbell, abc seven news. >> five us marines aboard a helicopter that went down in the mountains near san diego are now confirmed dead. the names of those marines have not been

released. the helicopter left an air force base outside las vegas tuesday night, stopped in imperial county to refuel, but then failed to arrive as scheduled in san diego. wednesday morning, search teams found the helicopter debris field. >> our report released today revealed special counsel robert her will not prosecute president biden for his mishandling of documents. instead, it depicts him as a forgetful old man at the white house about an hour ago. the president snapped back at reporters, asking him about his age and memory issues. >> in his description. you are a well-meaning elderly man with a poor memory. >> i'm well meaning, and i'm an elderly man, and i know what the hell i'm doing. i've been president and i put this country back on its feet. i don't need his recommendation. it's totally out of your memory. >> and can you continue as president? >> if my memory is so bad, i let you speak. >> this all comes after a year long investigation into the president's handling of classified materials that were discovered during a search of

his home. the report finds he willfully retained the notes and that he also viewed them as his own property and as reflections of his career. he will not be charged with a crime. >> we are in the countdown to the super bowl. the 40 niners will play the kansas city chiefs this sunday in las vegas, and while the game is in vegas, there are some familiar things for people from san francisco. that's true. >> abc seven news reporter j.r stone joins us live from las vegas with that story. j.r >> yeah. the music is already playing here. the parties are underway here in las vegas. but i got to be honest sometimes you go to a party and it's popping. other times you go to a party and it is full of kansas city chiefs fans. and that is exactly what happened tonight. but it has been a great week and we got a taste this week of a historic hotel with bay area ties. take a listen. it's not situated anywhere near the golden gate bridge, but the golden gate

hotel and casino las vegas does have bay area ties. >> these are the gentlemen that came down from oakland. >> jeff victor, vice president of the hotel and casino, says this group consisted of eight partners and 23 investors. they renamed the casino operations here the golden gate casino. >> they were from the bay area. and so they wanted a market differentiator. >> at the time, the hotel was named the sal segev, which is las vegas backwards, which was eventually changed. it's the golden gate bridge image that can be seen on all of the old art that's here. the dealers wore these change vests, the old whiskey bottles have the golden gate bridge image ingrained on the side. hotel was actually built in 1905 and is expanded over and over again through the years, but the original ten rooms are still here. the old building is on this end of the hallway, and the newer building is that way. people back then were a lot smaller and that could be seen with my head nearly hitting the top of the doorway. i need coming to the main section of this dresser,

the rat pack was said to have had drinks at this bar. visitors say the history of this golden gate is remarkable. >> well, you know, if you think about vegas and sinatra and sammy davis jr and dean martin, right. you think about that era of vegas and, you know, i mean, we're standing here i mean, and look right down the streets where they filmed the movie casino. >> so certainly a history in vegas with a taste of san francisco. golden gate style. >> you should come by if you're from san francisco, you should come by and see, you know, your touch point here in las vegas and back out here live in las vegas. >> you can see, yes, it may be in the 40s. here we may be bundled up, but they are in the pool because it is nice and warm in the pool at that. now, a fun fact about that historic hotel that you saw there. they were the first hotel in las vegas to have a phone number and it was number one. so you dial number one and you get that hotel. now back to you folks in the studio. wow what a party.

>> all right. thank you jr i know. >> all right good stuff. now even though the super bowl is being played of course in las vegas there's plenty going on in san francisco as well. there are two watch parties to talk about the crossing at east cut and thrive city that will be taking place as watch parties. the crossing at east cut is the site of the former transbay terminal. it's located at howard and main streets. thrive city is outside chase center. as you know, the home of the warriors. now, this is the first time it's hosting a 40 niners watch party. doors open at 2 p.m. will before the super bowl kick off at 330 in the afternoon. the event is free. the game will be streamed on the largest outdoor video board anywhere in san francisco. so if you go, you will be able to see. and if you're heading to san francisco, heads up that the chp is closing some off ramps into the city from both 101 and 280 as well. here's a map of what's affected the mission street devoe street off ramp

two very different visions for california. steve garvey, the leading republican, is too conservative for california. he voted for trump twice and supported republicans for years, including far right conservatives. adam schiff, the leading democrat, defended democracy against trump and the insurrectionists. he helped build affordable housing, lower drug costs, and bring good jobs back home. the choice is clear. i'm adam schiff, and i approve this message. ♪ i have type 2 diabetes, but i manage it well ♪ ♪ jardiance! ♪ ♪ it's a little pill with a big story to tell ♪ ♪ i take once-daily jardiance ♪ ♪ at each day's start! ♪ ♪ as time went on it was easy to see ♪

answers. >> so tonight in this two hour special, we're going to reveal a lot of our new reporting that shows that a former employee was actually warning them about the whole design line, but also about this acoustic warning system that basically would have some sort of sound that would alert you to some sort of crack that's happening. the problem is that these experts were saying, well, wait a minute. if something is happening and you hear it happening, it's now too late. >> truth and lies fatal dive to thy titanic airs tonight at 8:00 here on abc seven and streaming on hulu. >> coming up next, an underground rescue. at first, it looked like a sinkhole. you could say it's actually worse. >> and we'll get a look at the weekend forecast. guess what? finally, a break from the rain

and on that note, i'm evan low, and i approve this message. what that hole actually was, was, oh, he can't get him down. >> there's none of room. there's seven over the scene of a horrifying ordeal. a 40 year old woman plunging 25ft straight

down into the ground. firefighters using rope and pulleys to send someone down to attach a harness to her, before slowly pulling her back up to the surface. so that's a pretty incredible stuff. >> great job by the firefighters and really risky for everybody involved. >> it happened sometime before 10:00 this morning at a mobile home park in fontana on cherry avenue, just south of foothill. the woman's children, hearing their mothers screaming, then telling neighbors i was actually asleep and my mom is her best friend, so she came running towards me and she was like, oh, get up, something happened to me. >> turns out the victim was just walking around outside when the pavement collapsed, the victim plunging into the remnants of an old septic tank that gave way because of all the recent rain. >> she was just in fear. >> she was crying. everyone was saying, oh, she's okay, she's okay. she didn't look okay. >> the 911 caller did everything correctly. they did not attempt to enter the hole or do anything that could potentially create additional victims. >> san bernardino county

firefighter paramedic eric sherwin said. given the situation, they needed to act with extreme caution whenever we're dealing with confined space and or trench rescues, the potential to have debris sloughed from the walls is a very big concern, which is why we have a very measured approach to these situations. what we don't know is how long the victim was at the bottom of the sinkhole. we can't tell you that from the time the call came in to when she was pulled out of there was at least two hours. she's very fortunate that from what it appears, she only suffered minor injuries. robert milan, abc seven news fortunate indeed. >> that is really lucky. >> all right, let's get to one last check on our weather meteorologist, cindy patel is here. >> hi, cindy. >> hi, there. yeah dan. and let's take a look at a live picture from palisades tahoe. where it is just a pretty view. look at the snow on the ground. look at the snow falling right now. i guess they just switched it. there you go. and we take a look at the sierra snowpack statewide, it is at 75% of

average recent storms helping to boost our total. just last friday we were about half of where we should be standing at around 55% of average heading to tahoe. chance of snow tomorrow. other than that, you're good to go. ridge tops will see gusty winds saturday, but it's dry for the weekend and milder the second half. on sunday and on monday. really beautiful weather there. rainfall percent of average. a of r cities are running above erag except oakland right now. san jose 146% of normal 122 in san francisco and our major reservoirs are well above average. new melones 141 uh- shasta 125 san luis is the only one. that's 81% of average el nino advisory was issued today. warmer than average sea surface temperatures continue. there's a 79% chance we transition to neutral. and then la nina develops this summer. so stay tuned on live doppler seven. still have a few showers going through the bay area, and here's a look at your high temperatures in the 50s. your seven day forecast will

but his vision dimmed with age. he had amd. i didn't know it then, but it can progress to ga, an advanced form of the disease. his struggle with vision loss from amd made me want to help you see warning signs of ga. like straight lines that seem wavy, blurry, or missing visual spots that make it hard to see faces like this one, or trouble with low light that makes driving at night a real challenge. if you've been diagnosed with amd and notice vision changes, don't wait. ga is irreversible. it's important to catch it early. talk to your eye doctor about ga and learn more at gawontwait.com

two leading candidates for senate. two very different visions tal for california.ctor about ga steve garvey, the leading republican, is too conservative for california. he voted for trump twice and supported republicans for years, including far right conservatives. adam schiff, the leading democrat, defended democracy against trump and the insurrectionists. he helped build affordable housing, lower drug costs, and bring good jobs back home. the choice is clear. i'm adam schiff, and i approve this message.

larry b live from las vegas as we count down to super bowl 58. look, it's impossible to know what's going to happen in the game between the 49 ers and the chiefs. but i'll tell you this. the 40 niners are going to be an

angry, motivated bunch after the week they've had here in vegas. now we've gone over the practice field situation. niners not happy with the field conditions. but they're just you know grinning and bearing it. then this morning around 6 a.m. the fire alarm went off at the niners team hotel. and that woke everybody up to say the players are irritated would be a mild understatement. >> man, bro, i don't like a fire alarm going off at six in the morning. for what? like i ain't understand that y'all not lying. >> terrible timing for us, so who knows? i don't think it was a coincidence either. >> kind of reminded me of philly when they had these. this construction going on outside through the entire night, and it was early in the morning, and it was like there to demolishing a bridge right outside of our. so we haven't had the best luck. but no excuses. i'm not making excuses. i'm just explaining what happened as soon as the

fire alarm went off, i just laughed. >> i'm like, of course this would happen, you know what i mean? it's part of it, you know. is it random? no, i think there's no way it's random, but it's part of it, you know? i mean, it's just more wood throwing in the fire. >> it's like we got conspiracy theories going on at the super bowl. i'll tell you what i hope. nick bosa is really angry because he turns into the hulk when he's angry. look uh, you know the other thing we've talked about all week long is the 40 niners defense. it has to be much better than what we've seen in the two previous playoff games against the lions and the packers. abc seven's cris alvarez spoke with niners linebacker fred warner, who is anxious to avenge the super bowl loss to the chiefs four years ago. debo called it the hardest, the biggest heartbreak of his life. >> i imagine, at least on the football field, it has to be. how do you overcome that emotion to have maybe the greatest moment of your life? >> yeah, i think you kind of i think football is unique. uh- is

a unique sport in the fact that there has to be some sort of emotion being played with on the field because of how physical of a game it is. you know, when you're you're putting your body on the line every single play and you know. but that being said, i think you got to remove most of the emotion out of it in terms of what happened last time, i don't think that has anything to do with what we got going on this sunday. these are two completely different teams, a lot of different players on both sides, key players, you know, in certain positions. but i think it's about really just taking your group that you have right now. and executing it to the best of your ability. you know, for three hours, three hours, whatever you whatever you can do for three hours, do it to the best of your ability, and i'm sure you'll get the job done. >> do you feel more confident this time around? i mean, you have different guys and there's some key ones like trent, christian, brock. does it feel different this time around, entering the super bowl for you? uh yeah. >> i mean, it's different every year is different. and the team is much different from what it was back in 19. i mean, we still had a ton of confidence going into that game. i think that,

you know, we had the best team that year. but it's never about the team that's the best. it's about the team that plays the best for that. >> that given sunday, congrats on the baby boy. >> yeah appreciate it. thanks it is done kenny lofton nba trade deadline came and went today. >> the warriors made a small move sending cory joseph to indiana for a second round pick. now the dubs played the pacers tonight. so joseph just walked from the visiting locker room to the home team locker room. steph went for 42 and the dubs won big 131 109. we'll tell you who won. brock purdy is a christian mccaffrey patrick willis going to the hall of fame. all of that coming up tonight at 11 abc seven sports sponsored by your northern california honda dealers. dan i'm back to you. all right. >> great stuff larry. thanks. live from las vegas. yeah. all right. >> that's going to do it for this edition of abc seven news. i'm ama day and i'm dan ashley for sandhya patel larry biel and our team in vegas. >> we
