NEW: My colleagues and I spent months tallying up the $ that’s flowed through S.F. Mayor Daniel Lurie since he entered politics in 2023.
Enter the $164 million empire.

In Daniel Lurie’s first full year as SF mayor, donors gave $40.2 million at his request — nearly 12x London Breed’s first full year, per city filings.

170 victims had rape-kit exams in San Francisco in the first six months of 2026.
As of today, police have made just 11 arrests, and only one rape case is being prosecuted.

The SFPD is promising to improve its process for investigating sex crimes.
The department's clearance rate for rape cases is 14 percent, half the national average.

Read my latest: a bizarre battle over who owns a $4 million Sea Cliff home. An owner disappeared to China, notaries say their stamps were forged, 30+ police visits, zero arrests, and a dozen San Francisco agencies pointing at each other. sfstandard.com/2026/09/10/se…
