The feud between two of San Francisco’s top law enforcement officials continued Tuesday – this time with District Attorney Chesa Boudin accusing police Chief Bill Scott of violating an agreement between the offices that is at the center of a swirling controversy around police reform and use of force.

"At the outset, I want to be clear: your decision to walk away from this agreement will not stop the District Attorney’s Office from working to protect the residents of San Francisco harmed by police violence," Boudin wrote.

"Based on sworn testimony and evidence…it is clear to the chief of police — as it should be to any reasonable observer — that the San Francisco District Attorney’s office has breached its agreement and betrayed a public trust both our departments owe to the San Franciscans we serve," Dorsey said in a statement.

At the time, the district attorney was not required to share the information, under the agreement – or memorandum of understanding, Boudin said. The swirling controversy will take center stage at Wednesday’s police commission meeting, where the commission is expected to address the accusations on both sides, while attempting to preserve the vital agreement between the two offices.

Boudin all this high crime is all your fault , no more catch and release for thieves . See what happened during the holidays, Noone wanted to go out shopping or see the tree ... enough is enough

I vote for the Chief.

chesaboudin is liar.

Boudin's office should be investigated by the Bar Association for major ethics violations.

A privileged white man attacking the actions of a black man. It's sad that in 2022, this is going on but I'm not surprised.
