Published since 2005. San Francisco is a city that belongs to the people of the world. Hence this blog has a global focus. The name "Sam Spade's San Francisco" refers to an exciting era in the City's history, the time of Dashiell Hammett's fictional gumshoe and San Francisco character, Sam Spade. My name is Tom Dunn and I edit the blog. I'm not as exciting as Sam Spade, but I am definitely a San Francisco character.Contact or on Twitter -- Search blog below.

Dennis Herrera Forces Out Ed Jew - Good Riddance!
Ed Jew, the disgraced San Francisco Supervisor who lied about where he lived in order to run for the Board of Supervisors (he didn't even live in the City and County of San Francisco!) and who is accused by the FBI of trying to con money out of a San Francisco restaurant chain in exchange for political favors - has finally been forced out of office thanks to the good work of San Francisco City Attorney Dennis Herrera!
In the photo: Ed Jew in the days before his arrest and indictment by the City and County of San Francisco and by the FBI.
City Attorney Dennis Herrera scheduled a 1 PM news conference to discuss the Ed Jew case, but Jew rushed to the media to announce his resignation. Ed Jew is still vainly and futilely trying to "save face".
Too late for that, Ed.
You blew it!
Ed Jew might as well forget about saving face. Jew has humiliated the San Francisco Chinese community, embarrassed the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, made complete fools of the people who elected him, accused the people of his district of being liars when they said he didn't live amongst them and (allegedly) perpetrated a serious felony offense against the Quickly Company, from which he (allegedly) tried to squeeze money in exchange for political favors. Ed Jew disgraced himself and his family as thoroughly and completely as anyone has ever done.
