One of the groups behind this in LA was released during the pandemic and continued their work... They know they won't be put back. The group caught in San Diego (caught with a house full of catalytic converters) were only charged for having a slide they'd stolen from a local park. Slap on the wrist. A lot of non violent crime is not being pursued at this time, besides these thefts. It's a broader trend. Taxes go up, services go down. Why? Just never enough money to govern somehow in California... Clearly, it's an impoverished state. (If we measured by more than money in common thinking, that isn't even sarcasm)

This case had a stolen slide, discovered while police were looking for stolen cats. Also they were not charged with the theft of the stolen goods found. It happened in Burbank WA though.
