Boudin opponent named to replace him as San Francisco district attorney
CNN
Brooke Jenkins, a former prosecutor in the San Francisco District Attorney's Office and a vocal opponent of Chesa Boudin, has been named as the new district attorney to replace him.
Boudin was recalled during California's June 7 primary election with 55% of voters choosing to remove him amid claims that his progressive agenda was leading to uninhibited crime levels.
San Francisco Mayor London Breed announced Jenkins' appointment at a Thursday evening news conference. Jenkins will serve as the district attorney until November, when she will run as a candidate in a special election to decide who will fill Boudin's term through 2023, the mayor's office said.
