Carjacking attempt at UC president's home in Berkeley


https://www.berkeleyscanner.com/2023/09/28/uc-berkeley-crime/berkeley-carjacking-attempt-uc-presidents-home/


Quote:

These security breaches prompted the Board of Regents to consider moving Drake out of his $6.5 million Julia Morgan-designed home in one of Berkeley's most upscale neighborhoods to a $13 million home in Piedmont.

The regents voted earlier this month not to move Drake, even though the money would have come from private donors and not the public, according to the Los Angeles Times.

I don't think any private donor had moving the UC president to a bigger mansion as a high priority in making their donation...


Move to our neighborhood in Bay Point. Early on , 32 years ago, the sheriff told us our houses would be safe because there is only one entrance/exit to it. When they are called they block that exit point and "mass"/wait there. Criminals want no part of that. He was right. 32 years...no problems. Plus, it's Bay Point...nothing good to steal.

Berkeley isn't safe so they are moving him to Oakland?

(Yes, I realize Piedmont is technically not Oakland but it is more Oakland than Berkeley is.)

I am all for reduced sentences for petty crime but this woman has been arrested many times. You don't get a free pass every single time you get arrested. What is up with the DA?'

Moved out of that apartment in June, 1982 to buy a house with a buddy. Price: $137,000. Estimated market value by Zillow today: $1.7M. He got married before I did and we sold it in 1984 for $143,000.

I haven't seen the evidence.

A case to keep your eye on is the DA's prosecution of OPD Phong Tran. Does the case derail before trial? If not, does he get acquitted? What will Tran's legal move be if those scenarios occur? Defamation and/or malicious prosecution action against DA and county?


The cookie is starting to crumble:

Now that Rita has become a prison because the prisons are over full I wonder where all these new criminals and homeless will end up.

If you want them arrested you must provide for them because 90% will be released at some point.

I wonder how many of those cars were stolen for takeover/robbery bs.

How many of those thefts are inside and or insurance jobs(behind on payments) ?
How many of the thefts were intended to be thefts from inception(for parts)

How many vehicles were driven elsewhere or south of the border?

Side point I have hard time seeing OPD writing up that many stolen vehicle reports over the past two years whenever I call them I get a busy signal or voice mail

Read an article today about the 25 year old male that crashed a stolen Lexus at high speed killing a man and woman in their 60's in Oakland on 9/24.

The man's record: 8 prior felony convictions since 2019 including robbery, possessing a stolen car and assault with a firearm.

Something is a miss in the 80's and 90's unless he was super wealthy or related to a high ranking individual he would have been washed ā€¦

Do you know what demographic group he belongs to? I saw this on IG right after it happened and my initial thought was the news report shows no face/mug shot no name and from my experience that tells me they most likely are not Black. Sad for the victims but which policies produced this result?

This "soft on crime" stuff is a thing after most of the Black population has been locked up. The criminal just system was build to produce that result. And now the demographics have changed so the get out of jail free cards are the thing smh .

IMHO Reparations would have virtually eliminated the prison complex. Americas criminal justice system would never lock up whites or white hispanics in the same way.

Lol. He is likely black. Your "ability" to turn this into a conspiracy against black people is pretty funny and sad.

Violent crime went down in 2022 and is on track for a record decrease of ~10% in 2023. The Trump violent crime boom is at an end. Petty theft still a problem.
