Scott and Marisa talk to Megan Cassidy, San Francisco Chronicle crime reporter, and Gabrielle Lurie, San Francisco Chronicle staff photographer, about their investigation into Honduran migrants selling drugs in San Francisco. They talk about the genesis and findings of the investigation, respond to criticisms of their story and analyze the political fallout in San Francisco.
Three thousand miles from San Francisco, a cluster of rural villages in Honduras is buzzing with the sounds of construction as new mansions spring up — many adorned with Bay Area iconography. The region shares a surprising connection to San Francisco: It is the birthplace of many of the city's drug dealers. For the past 18 months, reporter Megan Cassidy and photographer Gabrielle Lurie have been investigating that link and how the open-air drug trade in San Francisco operates. They join Cecilia Lei to share what they learned. | Unlimited Chronicle access: sfchronicle.com/pod Got a tip, comment, question? Email us: fifth@sfchronicle.com Learn more about your ad choices.

The San Francisco police commission has proposed a policy that would stop officers from pulling over motorists for minor infractions like littering or driving without registration tags. It's an effort to reduce racial profiling, but some critics say it would make the city less safe.

Photo taken outside San Quentin State Prison by Zack Haber on Twitter On this show: 0:08 – Mitch Jeserich is the host of Letters and Politics, weekdays at 10AM. He joins hosts Brian Edwards-Tiekert and Cat Brooks to talk about the passing of lifelong activist and independent media stalwart Margy Wilkinson, and the House passing a bill to advance statehood for Washington, D.C. 0:34 – As Covid-19 cases surge again across the United States, we take listener questions with John Swartzberg, clinical professor emeritus of infectious diseases at UC Berkeley's School of Public Health. Dr. Swartzberg says public health officials warned that a loosening of shelter in place restrictions would lead to a spike in cases. The lack of masks and social distancing created more spread, Swartzberg says — and he emphasizes it's important to understand asymptomatic and pre-symptomatic spread are possible, and discusses the early failures by the CDC and FDA that have contributed to making this crisis worse. Swartzberg also warns against obtaining expensive, fast-tracked antibody tests from unreliable private companies that don't use reputable laboratories. 1:08 – San Quentin's Covid-19 outbreak is now more than 1,000 cases, after California's Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation transferred incarcerated men between facilities without testing them for the virus first. San Quentin houses many medically vulnerable prisoners. Family members cannot reach loved ones inside, and they're deeply concerned. Ann Jackson is the mother whose son in San Quentin. The last time she spoke to him, he had a temperature of 106 degrees. Megan Cassidy (@meganrcassidy) is a crime reporter for the San Francisco Chronicle, who's been covering the Covid-19 outbreak at San Quentin. You can read her reporting here. 1:34 – The Supreme Court just ruled 5-4 in June Medical Services v. Russo to strike down a Louisiana law that forced abortion clinics to obtain “admitting privileges” to local hospitals. Marjorie Cohn joins us to quickly respond to the decision — she is professor emerita at Thomas Jefferson School of Law and former president of the National Lawyers Guild.

After SFPD officers fatally shot Mario Woods in 2015, authorities promised reforms. But more than half of the changes recommended by the Department of Justice have yet to be fulfilled, and while use-of-force incidents are down overall, police still disproportionately use violence against black people and Latinos.
