thanks very much, miss deberry, good to see you. next we're going to hear from a representative of the police department. >> good morning, supervisor breed, cohen, tang, my name is commander robert mosier, i am here to present on prop situation -- 47 on behalf of the chief. i want to talk just a little bit more in depth about the particular crimes that were reduced from felonies to misdemeanors. drug crimes, simple possession or personal use drug crimes under three specific sections of the health and safety code were reduced. that included heroin possession, cocaine possession, concentrated marijuana or cannabis, and methamphetamine along with other controlled substances. basically there was no limitation on the amount possessed as long as it could be indicated for personal use. stolen property, a theft or receiving a stolen property if it is less than $950, that would be reduced to a misdemeanor. commercial burglary, if the theft is under $950 if it occurs during normal business hours that would be under 950 and any theft related c

>> i believe -- miss deberry, the 3 year time frame? >> (inaudible) trying to contact the woman that's been doing the reviews. i think we've done approximately 300. the drug cases were obvious because based on the charge we can tell they are eligible, it's the theft cases we need to go through. >> the qu

>> i believe -- miss deberry, the 3 year time frame? >> (inaudible) trying to contact the woman that's been doing the reviews. i think we've done approximately 300. the drug cases were obvious because based on the charge we can tell they are eligible, it's the theft cases we need to go through. >> the question i was trying to get to is what's the timeline and how long will it take. >> i was trying to get to that. i anticipate we would finish by the summer, we've done about 300, there's another 300 or so left where we're going through the review. there may be somewhere our office and the public defender will have a different idea and will require a hearing in a court room. >> when you guys are in disagreement you go before the court, you said? >> yes. >> can you briefly explain that process? that's unclear. >> if we felt somebody was ineligible to be resentenced on a misdemeanor and the public defender's office felt they were eligible, we could have a hearing in the court where they could argue why they felt the conduct or the charge qua

. >> miss deberry >> car thefts do not qualify for prop 47 so you can tell your constituents they are not eligible for prop 47. it will be treated just the same. >> thanks very much. >> to date, 102 of all of our active clients have been granted relief under prop 47. of these, about half remain on formal probation. this final slide shows the break down. these are actual court decisions that have occurred since the implementation of prop 47. as you can see the numbers are actually very small. the adult probation department has 53 people fewer on our case load, which represents 1 percent of our clients that did not prior to the passage of prop 47. the impact of prop 47 on our clientele and our services has been negligable. this may change but at this point we do not believe our needs will change drastickally. thank you for the opportunity to address you this morning and i'll be happy to answer any questions. >> i want to know what will be the budget impact of prop 47? >> like i indicated, i think it's negligable. based on our recommendations, if those individuals go to court it would be

i completely agree with miss deberry, if money money could be funded to substantial abuse issues to help people with their relocative issues and mental health issues, what happens to these people when they are opposite probation when they are off parole, for example? we need to have services available to them. i know we have this city-wide case management program in san francisco with a forensics unit that provides significant mental health structured assistance and we have many people that need that assistance upon finishing probation or adult parole. and i can tell you, i work specifically in the parole court department and i can tell you right now one of the biggest problems we are facing in san francisco and the adult parole department is facing and they are trying their very best to address is what to do with registered section offenders who are on their case load and many of them are sex offenders because of misdemeanor exposure cases, not necessarily rape or battery. many of these are old sex offender convictions. we can't place them in programs because programs in san francisco w
