Bay Area Cops Lost at Least 944 Guns in The Last Six Year - The Truth About Guns
Here’s the tally:

As the report rightly points out, the losses are the result of a dysfunctional police culture. One Golden State politician – a Democrat no less — wants to change that through legislation.
“This needs to stop,” said state Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, who is sponsoring legislation that would make it illegal in California for a cop to leave a gun in an unattended car unless it is locked inside a hidden compartment or secure case.
I highly doubt his bill will see the light of day. And unless it makes cops personally, legally accountable for a lost or stolen firearm, as non law-enforcement officers are, it won’t do squat to alter the situation.
