Reporting by WAPO shows #GilgoBeach serial killer investigation riddled with infighting between prosecutors & detectives. Pivotal lead, ignored for 10+ years, could have cracked the case! How many MORE women died as a result of police negligence & utter disregard for sex workers?

#GilgoBeach In 2011, Chief of Detectives for serial murder case, referred to victims' status as sex workers, calling it a "consolation" that the murderer wasn't "selecting citizens at large--he's selecting from a pool." (WAPO) Police contempt for sex workers prejudiced the case!

Stop criminalizing sex work in San Francisco! The City's prostitution Task Force recommended decriminalization nearly 30 years ago! Instead, barricades on Capp Street and more police harassment push women, trying to feed families, into more danger. sfstandard.com/2024/02/15/sho…
