Huh. Have you considered these two possibilities:
1) You're not seeing a full feed of all video that gets shot; you're seeing what various media outlets choose to share.
2) Humans being humans, we're more primed to grab video when we're seeing other videos, so you'd expect the distribution not to reflect the ground truth.
I am aware that I won't convince you, but I also need to point out that at least one of the articles I linked to shows stats from adjacent jurisdictions with different laws and charging protocols which don't support the "more crime in SF" thesis.

So it goes.
