Brother of San Francisco's mayor resentenced to shorter term in death of girlfriend following robbery
Fox News
Napoleon Brown, the brother of San Francisco's mayor, had his prison sentence reduced on July 24, 2023. He was charged in the death of his girlfriend in 2000.
In 2018, Mayor London Breed sent outgoing Gov. Jerry Brown a letter urging him to show leniency and commute her older brother's prison sentence. She referenced her position as mayor in the letter, and the stationery read "Mayor London Breed" at the top. He did not respond.
Marc Zilversmit, Napoleon Brown's attorney, said they are pleased the judge agreed to a reduction but they had asked for an even shorter sentence. Brown has served nearly 22 years in prison, according to Zilversmit.
