“Beware.” This is the caution we issue nearly every day to San Franciscans to warn them to be alert for those who seek to exploit the current crisis to rob, cheat, and profit. Well, it’s not just street criminals and two-bit hustlers who seek to get over during the COVID-19 pandemic. You can now add so-called “criminal justice reformers” to the list of culprits that should keep your eyes peeled.

Obviously there’s a lot happening in The City that would take priority over this column only, when you think about it, there’s really nothing more important than the number of times members of the SFPD put their lives on the line for the benefit of the citizens they serve.

For instance: Sergeant Sergio Lopez runs a plainclothes officer operation out of Ingleside Station consisting of Officer Bryan Zahn, Officer David Lee, Officer Kevin Burke, and Officer Kevin Downs who managed to arrest several individuals armed with guns within a period of only 3 days.
