In 2019, we highlighted a tripling in reported human waste in the public way. Citizens filed 10,644 complaints in 2014 and the number of complaints escalated to 30,996 cases by 2019.
Our auditors mapped 118,352 case reports of human waste on city streets – from 2011 to 2019.
Nuru was charged with one count of alleged public corruption and is innocent until proven guilty. “The complaint describes a web of corruption involving bribery, kickbacks, and side deals by one of San Francisco’s highest-ranking city employees,” said U.S. Attorney David L. Anderson. “The public is entitled to honest work from public officials, free from manipulation for the official’s own personal benefit and profit.”
Nuru was well paid in his futile attempt to keep San Francisco streets clean. His total taxpayer-funded cash compensation in 2019 was $380,120, and his base salary had jumped by $65,000 over eight years. Our auditors at OpenTheBooks.com compiled Nuru’s pay based on Freedom of Information Act requests filed with the City of San Francisco.

Greetings musicismagic...
What a really bizarre news story eh? FBI got involved even...
Imagine how many incidents didn't get reported! Most folks would go, "Oh my God", and hurry away...and not call anybody.
(Unless they got signs on the streets of San Fran; like they have for injured animals here in Australia with emergency call numbers)
Wow, that was a dang good salary he was dragging in too! He didn't have to get his hands dirty, he was the head cheese of the poo patrols. And STILL, had to go to the dark side with corruption... sigh, bloody sad mate.

It sounds like this Nuru guy might be up s#%t creek. If guilty hammer him. Now as far a literally knee deep poo, that is being disingenuous. In other words, a lie. Hey MIM what is the street talk in San Francisco since you seem to know everything everywhere even though you are in Japan? To the OP and MIM, i was in San Francisco last weekend, I'm now back here in Houston but i didn't see any knee deep there. Not even ankle deep.

Greetings again musicismagic.
I moved here to Oz, almost 10 years ago.....from Arizona.
I still have a deep love of my home country of course. I am also quite concerned about friends and family back there as they endure the entire mess going on with everything.
Oz got lucky with covid and the lockdowns, at least in my state of Queensland. State of Victoria and New South Wales are a different story though. Big scandals here over covid stuff.
I am personally pretty flabbergasted, gobsmacked with how insane it has gotten...cartoon style banana republic stuff going down back in my home country.
Biden can't even recall his Secretary of Defense's name, and called the Pentagon, "that place over there".
And people used to go on about Trump having the "nuclear football" and could start WW3 easy peasy.
This dude Biden might push the same button thinking he was ordering coffee at mcDonalds or something...
I mean the irony is mighty heavy, and sorry for all my dark humour mate. Commie news CNN even cut away from him when he went to question and answers at his first news conference, right? The certainty of some senile dementia statement was almost a given I presume?
I didn't mean to sound like deviating from thread topic, but meaning to point out that the wholesale corruption, (like mr Nuru) is at epic levels in the USA now, not to mention bald faced hypocrisy as never witnessed by myself in the USA's history.
It is so bad I reckon, that the banana of the republic is really a dark brown over ripe and rotten to the core with fruit flies in it banana..Ha!
We got corruption here too sometimes, but it is kids stuff compared to stories like this poo patrol czar of San Francisco.
Hang in there mate, summer is right around the corner for you all northern hemisphere type people.
