Advocates rally for progressive S.F. police commissioner marked for removal by Mayor Lurie
Briefly

Legal experts and community members rallied at San Francisco City Hall to oppose Mayor Lurie's plan to remove Police Commissioner Max Carter-Oberstone, who advocates for police reform. Carter-Oberstone, appointed by Mayor London Breed, has faced challenges due to political tensions with city leadership. The upcoming vote by the Board of Supervisors for his ousting requires six votes, and uncertainty remains about the outcome. Supporters express hope for needed time to mobilize further community advocacy for reform.
Carter-Oberstone's advocacy for police reform clashes with the mayor's vision, as he recalls, 'This has not endeared me to the leadership of our police department.'
Brian Hofer noted that, 'You don't know until you fight the fight' regarding the uncertain vote outcome for Commissioner Carter-Oberstone's position.
