Freeway signs slam Los Angeles DA Gascon as snubbed deputies cry foul over his town hall with public defenders

Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon came under renewed fire Thursday for taking pre-screened questions from a group of public defenders and meeting with them – after snubbing his own staff.

"These emails prove that the District Attorney won’t or can’t show up for an event unless he knows ahead of time what questions he’ll be asked," Eric Siddall, vice president of Los Angeles’ Association of Deputy District Attorneys (ADDA), told Fox News Digital Thursday. "They also prove what we’ve long suspected: that getting ahead in Gascon’s District Attorney’s office depends entirely on your willingness to help him politically – if you take care of him, he’ll take care of you." Banners have cropped up around Los Angeles blasting Gascon for allegedly "unleashing crime and death" on the population.
