According to the state bar letters, Jenkins has less than a year to comply with the conditions of her diversion program, although it’s not clear when that process began.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Angela Chan, an assistant chief attorney at the Public Defender’s Office, said Jenkins’ behavior also puts pressure on judges to rule in her favor “even if the cases don’t merit that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve noticed that judges are more cautious of what they say and definitely feel more pressure to keep people in jail, especially pre-trial,” Chan said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cordell, a Santa Clara County Judge from 1982 to 2001, and the first Black female jurist to sit on a superior court in Northern California, was also \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12037502/embattled-san-mateo-sheriff-brings-back-former-aide-alleged-romantic-partner\">the investigator\u003c/a> behind a scathing 408-page report into San Mateo County Sheriff Christina Corpus and her former chief of staff — and alleged boyfriend — Victor Aenlle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorneys at the State Bar have up to 60 days to review Cordell’s complaint against Jenkins and decide whether to pursue a formal investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The place for a prosecutor to respectfully disagree with a judge’s ruling is in the courtroom, not on social media and not in the streets, pandering to voters,” Cordell wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

"content": "\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/san-francisco\">San Francisco\u003c/a> jury acquitted a man of felony drug charges last month after he was found to have been coerced into selling drugs in the Tenderloin, marking a first for the Bay Area, Public Defender Mano Raju announced Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The verdict comes as Raju’s office is calling on District Attorney Brooke Jenkins, who faces a tight reelection bid this fall, to reconsider her office’s approach to drug dealing that the public defender says is being orchestrated by human traffickers. Local and federal law enforcement agencies have ramped up efforts to disrupt the sale of fentanyl through increased arrests, citations and deportations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There are a great number of cases being charged by the prosecution against our clients for very low-level drug dealing. Oftentimes, our clients are victims of human trafficking or labor trafficking,” Raju said at a rally outside the Hall of Justice. “And oftentimes they are selling drugs to avoid further violence being done to them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The defendant who was acquitted last month is a 27-year-old Honduran man whose name was not provided by attorneys. Raju said the district attorney’s office should treat such labor trafficking cases as it does sex trafficking cases and sign a certification stating that the acquitted defendant was a victim of a crime, which would qualify them for what’s known as a T-visa or U-visa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The district attorney’s office, meanwhile, has filed more criminal charges against alleged drug dealers and users since Jenkins was elected in 2022, totaling nearly 1800, and her office reports that it has secured 314 felony narcotics convictions during that time. Attorneys with the public defender’s office said their caseloads have ballooned in recent years as prosecutors’ filings ticked up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My office has been filing pre-trial detention motions in the most egregious narcotics dealing cases and those involving repeat offenders because of the extreme public safety risk posed by these drug dealers,” Jenkins said in a previous statement to KQED. “We are making slow progress and need to continue our efforts to see more improvement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, federal law enforcement agencies also stepped up drug-related arrests and deportation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although San Francisco’s sanctuary city policy bars most cooperation between local law enforcement and immigration agents, federal authorities, since last fall, have started prosecuting more drug dealing cases. Immigrants charged with federal crimes for low-level drug dealing have been offered plea deals that often end with credit for time served plus a one-day sentence — and because federal prosecutors are not barred from working directly with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, those plea deals can be a fast track to deportation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_12005687 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/240830-SFSideshowLegislation-28-BL_qed-1020x680.jpg']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ismail Ramsey, the U.S. attorney for the Northern District of California, did not respond to requests for comment for this story.

Local and federal law enforcement agencies have ramped up efforts to disrupt the sale of fentanyl through increased arrests, citations and deportations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There are a great number of cases being charged by the prosecution against our clients for very low-level drug dealing. Oftentimes, our clients are victims of human trafficking or labor trafficking,” Raju said at a rally outside the Hall of Justice. “And oftentimes they are selling drugs to avoid further violence being done to them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The defendant who was acquitted last month is a 27-year-old Honduran man whose name was not provided by attorneys. Raju said the district attorney’s office should treat such labor trafficking cases as it does sex trafficking cases and sign a certification stating that the acquitted defendant was a victim of a crime, which would qualify them for what’s known as a T-visa or U-visa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Attorneys with the public defender’s office said their caseloads have ballooned in recent years as prosecutors’ filings ticked up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My office has been filing pre-trial detention motions in the most egregious narcotics dealing cases and those involving repeat offenders because of the extreme public safety risk posed by these drug dealers,” Jenkins said in a previous statement to KQED. “We are making slow progress and need to continue our efforts to see more improvement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, federal law enforcement agencies also stepped up drug-related arrests and deportation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although San Francisco’s sanctuary city policy bars most cooperation between local law enforcement and immigration agents, federal authorities, since last fall, have started prosecuting more drug dealing cases. Immigrants charged with federal crimes for low-level drug dealing have been offered plea deals that often end with credit for time served plus a one-day sentence — and because federal prosecutors are not barred from working directly with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, those plea deals can be a fast track to deportation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
