lazar mentioned several of those already. and second thing when somebody is a crime, and my office is committed to doing as much as we can to provide victim services to help make you whole, to help you get back on your feet. and the harm and crimes and this past year we launched a pilot project in district five and supervisor preston where small businesses in district five suffer from vandalism or broken windows can submit a claim to our office which we can process for reimbursement up to per calendar year. it may not cover all the expenses but is a step in the right direction. we would love to expand the program and make it citywide. we love to expand the program and make it a higher deductible amount that people are eligible for. when the police show up and document vandalism or broken window, submit the police report to my staff and help fix the window through city victim compensation fund. >> and when you make that police report, please report crimes. if you don't report them, we can't do anything about them. when you rep

lazar's comments. prevention and deterrence are critical and from the auto burglary cases we prosecute about 30%, but it is not clear and never will be possible for police to make arrests in auto burglars and they are crimes of opportunity. people commit them when they think they can get away with them. sadly, sometimes they are right. but i also want to be clear about what happens in all the cases and where we do file charges. for better or worse and the constitution of the united states prohibits us from punishing people and being convicted of a crime. and what that means in cases that are nonviolent that are property crimes, for example, and will not mean we don't get them to prosecute and hold people accountable. and violence and weapons are not involved, judges and anywhere in the state of california and are required by law to release people who are presumed innocent. that is not always the case if they are on probation or parole and we have a little more leverage and numerous prior open cases, we

so deputy chief lazar is going to present our presentation. and i just want to say this before deputy chief lazar goes on: as the chief of police of the san francisco police department, i know that my colleagues, the district attorney, adult probation, and juvenile probation for that matter, we all are committed to make things better. it is not going to be an easy lift. there are systemic issues that we'll have to put a lot of thought into to move forward on. but there are things we can do right now. the mayor announced some of those things yesterday, and we'll continue to put our collective energy into this to try to make our criminal justice system here in san francisco the best that it can be. and, more importantly, to keep our residents and visitors of this city safe. with that, i want to turn it over to deputy chief lazar, and i'll be available to questions afterwards. >> thank you very much, chief scott. and supervisor mar, supervisor safai, supervisor haney and supervisor stefani, and i think supervisor ronan may be on us. i'm deputy ch

i'm just wondering if we could hear from chief scott or deputy chief lazar about the mlu and what you think about it and when you plan to respond. >> yeah, that sounds good. chief -- >> i'll answer that. sorry. let me -- hang on a second. i apologize. push we have the mlu from the da and i have reviewed it and my staff. there's a couple of things we'll send back with recommendations for revisions or at least a discussion for that. in principle, i think it's a step in the right direction. we are happy to do our part to -- i don't think it's anything -- as far as significant though we do have some suggestions we would like to discuss with the da. >> i could ask -- i would ask the sheriff's office and adult probation to also answer that question when they present. and there's two follow up hearings i can see from this hearing. the second is really getting deep with the mlu and understanding after you've had an opportunity to finalize it, a report back publicly to the board of supervisors and the city what changes are being implemented. i think that these communication problems which by t

but as reporter kristine lazar shows us, people are still abusing the system. >> i was texted this code from a friend of mine who received it from a coworker. >> reporter: this man who asked us not to reveal his identity shared with us and access code generated by the state that was meant for community groups to get more people of color in hard-hit communities vaccinated. >> the french knew that they were not supposed to be using the code, and it wasn't meant for them but it was a way to get access to the vaccine immediately. >> reporter: sure enough i was able to use the code to gain access. even though i don't get qualified. on tuesday, state officials told me after it was determined by the state that a code was being used by those beyond the intended audience, all the appointments enabled by the code were canceled, and the community group was issued a new code to use with its constituents. and a news conference, the same day, governor newsom promised that the state was correcting the problem. so why are they still working for those who want to jump the line? that is still unclear. >>

that sounds good and you mentioned nancy lazar.cornerstone macro report that taiwan's exports were up more than 36% year over year in january and that china's vehicle sales are up 30%, but the euro zone is not doing as well. it could see a double-dip recession, vaccination is slowing down. investor sentiment falls. steve, what about steve. this is an important component for the global economy, do you too have concerns about europe? steve: well, first off, why am i not invited to the 80's party? [laughter] ryan: you're in. steve: thanks. europe, it's a concern and opposed to what's happening in asia and you're seeing the growth and the economy picking up and the u.s. certainly looks like 7% growth. every year we have the same conversation. is this the year that europe finally recovers? the u.s. economy beat them 11, 12 years straight now. every year we are disappointed. investors confidence is down. outside of germany, they just can't get it together. they can't organize things together to make it work. deficits are way too high rig

and i also think that david lazar for his attempt to give a letter and i'm also thinking thanking chiefstoddard for the letter that he has to give to the city attorney but my problem is and we've said this is taking a long time so my son was in again this would have been proven once he was murdered but no, nobody's doing anything. the only reason why this is coming up is because i made a complaint against the state attorney accused my son of the office ofprofessional responsibility . that's my right to do that. as my right and my son has never been in again. and it's been proven by the investigators, the police , the homicides. why doi have to go through this, whatam i still going through this ? i've been coming to the commission for 15 years now . nobody has ever said anything about this to me though i get some notes from the attorneys, all i'm asking for is support my son was in one, let me know and he was not so i'm just asking for support for everybody to recap this story about my son beingin again. i don't want to protect the attorneys, i'm not worried aboutliability . my son was n

general orders are going to be updated and that is something that we'll follow up with, deputy chief lazar and the department -- and the police department. and then we will follow up with the district attorney and his team on the m.o.u., and coordinating with the other different departments. i appreciate it, supervisor haney, calling out the issue on fentanyl. and something also that our office has been very focused on. more fentanyl deaths in san francisco over the last year than covid. and so interested to hear how the fentanyl conversation moves forward and just, again, fentanyl misdemeanor possessions can turn into larger possessions and turn into felonies and then the worst scenario, turn into violent crime and/or death of those individuals. and so i really appreciate this opportunity and all of the information. it was very informative to me. and thank you, colleagues, for your questions and, chair mar, i appreciate, again, the leeway to have a very in-depth conversation with all of these different departments. so if you would not mind, i would appreciate a motion to continue this ite

lazar and the d.a. are not here because i feel like i am preaching to the choir a little bit. i wanted to repeat some of the things that some others have said regarding prevention more than what can count on from the police. we have heard the same thing in our neighborhood. i am in hays valley and head of the merchants association with autumn. people don't want to report crimes and don't feel it will go anywhere and is a cumbersome process and my daughter lives in the neighborhood and she has given up and if you look next door and from that neighborhood and we have one out of every three businesses that were vacant. and nobody wants to be in the neighborhood and step over drug addicts and dirty streets all the time. and privately fund this enormous undertaking and throw out there and there is a safe city camera program that is chris larson's program. and i smoke to him several months ago because his program is active in the b.i.d. and civic center and is not in the right area here in hays valley, we don't qualify. one of the things to find private financing for this. and as a

alex lazar who was on sabbatical from m.d. anderson, jordan wilson with us from rob witness p.a.n.'s office -- wittman's office, and shannon, emergency management, to help with that part of what we did. security is always the foremost consideration for an inauguration. it's a time of great exposure, frankly, for our democracy and our nation's leaders. as i said earlier, just two weeks earlier the inaugural platform itself had been stormed and damaged. the officers who fought valiantly that day to protect the capitol were also in charge two weeks later with keeping the inauguration safe. and while carrying the burden of the events of january 6, the united states capitol police officers with the assistance of the national guard ensured that inauguration -- the inauguration was secure and that the events of the day would occur without interruption. our committees, capitol police liaison lieutenant jeffers seamlessly coordinated the work of jccic and the department's inaugural task force. i want to thank lieutenant jeffers, the united states capitol police and the inaugural task force a
