A supervisor in San Mateo County unveiled a sweeping new plan aimed at stopping a wave of retail theft on the Peninsula.
In response to this growing problem, San Mateo County Supervisor David Canepa has taken a stand. On Tuesday, he announced a decisive step to address the issue and seek solutions.
"I've asked to create a task force so, on September 12th, the Board of Supervisors meeting, I want to move forward with legislation to create a task force of the Sheriff's office, as well as the police chiefs here in San Mateo County," added Canepa. "We can't go on like this. In addition…I had supported Proposition 47, which basically said you wouldn't prosecute…the crime is different at the level of up to $950. I thought it was a good idea then because we need to give people an opportunity, we need to give people a chance," Canepa said.
