How a House of Prime Rib cocktail waitress kicked up a political storm in S.F. City Hall
San Francisco Supervisor Beya Alcaraz, appointed by Mayor Daniel Lurie, was resigning after just seven days on the job. Baran was floored.
“Wow,” she texted a reporter. “I did that.”
The 26-year-old was behind a series of revelations, aired in the media and to the mayor’s office, about Alcaraz, a 29-year-old former pet shop owner with no political experience appointed by Lurie to represent the Sunset District. The information Baran brought to light probably catalyzed Alcaraz’s resignation, which political experts have called a major embarrassment for Lurie’s administration.
