San Francisco's Tenderloin district has been the focus of a crackdown on drug dealing, with four individuals charged in connection to suspected drug dealing. The alleged drug dealers were arrested in unrelated incidents by the San Francisco Police Department. A federal judge criticized prosecutors for not seeking harsher penalties, rejecting plea deals in two cases because the defendants would not spend any time in prison before being deported to Honduras.
