I don't have anything empirical but in my experience the frequency and brazenness of the shoplifting (in SF) increased in a very noticeable way soon after the passage of Prop 47.

The one place you do see a dramatic impact is car break ins. But even that is a result of a broken relationship between the DA's office and the SFPD.
