Dearest Friends,

Thank you for your tireless effort, generous support and votes this campaign. These past few months have been fun and invigorating, and I am extremely proud of what we were able to accomplish. Last night a reporter described the Fazio campaign as a “Family and Friends affair”, and I wouldn’t have had it any other way.

With deep gratitude,
Bill Fazio

I am deeply honored to have the vote of the Chairman of the California Democratic Party, John Burton.

The Interim “SF District Attorney ‘Forgot About’ Thousand Unsolved Murders”

“What else — aside from 1,151 unsolved homicides and over 900 unsolved rapes — is slipping San Francisco District Attorney George GascÃ³n’s mind?” Read More

Alameda County has far more unsolved rapes and homicides than San Francisco

admin — Thu, 03 Nov 2011 16:53:15 +0000

“According to state Department of Justice statistics from 2009, the most recent year available, San Francisco had 45 homicides, 71 percent of which were cleared. It had 179 forcible rapes, 22.9 percent of which were cleared. In that same year, Alameda County had 138 homicides, 46 percent of which were cleared, and 553 forcible rapes, 44.8 percent of which were cleared.” Read More

Quentin Kopp Endorses Bill Fazio

Former San Francisco Board of Supervisors member, State Senator and Superior Court Judge Quentin Kopp urged readers of his column to vote for Bill in the most recent issue of the Westside Observer.

Here is what he wrote about Bill:

“Six aspirants have filed for the District Attorney’s office, including another unqualified appointed incumbent, who was only admitted to practice law in California two years ago and has never tried an actual case, civil or criminal, in a courtroom. The appointed incumbent wouldn’t know a municipal corruption case if his life depended on it.

I recommend unequivocally your vote for Bill Fazio, who is past-President of the Lakeshore Acres Improvement Club, and served for 15 [sic] years as a Deputy District Attorney trying the most serious and violent felonies in San Francisco Superior Court. He has practiced trial criminal defense law for the past 10 [sic] years. He is the only candidate with actual trial experience of such magnitude.

There are two others with some trial experience, including one who may have violated the California Election Code by promising not to run if the incumbent appointed her his Chief Deputy District Attorney. (The complicit former District Attorney and now Attorney General Kamala Harris unsurprisingly refuses to act.)

Bill Fazio possesses the experience to advise trial deputies in their trial problems and formulate trial strategy with them. He possesses also the requisite experience to establish training and teaching of new and inexperienced deputies in the District Attorney’s office. The appointed incumbent can’t do that; he’s never tried a case and wouldn’t know what to do.

In my strong opinion, there is only one person to vote for as District Attorney and that is our neighbor, Bill Fazio.”
