Police Chief Hongisto reshapes San Francisco jail reform era
Richard Hongisto, elected sheriff in 1971, became a reformist figure in San Francisco. He opened jail improvements, created a children’s jail playground, hired an ombud, ended prisoner mail censorship, and eased deputy grooming rules. He later resigned to become Cleveland police chief, triggering a mayoral search and debate over his radical approach and fitness for office.
