LA County DA Gascón's progressive policies draw 'no confidence' votes from 17 cities
Fox News
An effort to recall Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón appears to be gaining some momentum with at least 17 cities in the county issuing "no confidence" votes over his progressive criminal justice policies, according to a report.
Some of the families of crime victims have accused Gascón of siding with defendants -- and around 20,000 inmates could be resentenced under his policies. "The sad truth … is that he has revictimized me and my family," Desiree Andrade, whose 20-year-old son was beaten and stabbed and thrown off a cliff to his death, said at a news conference supporting the recall last month. "He has total, utter disregard for us victims. You, George Gascón, have put criminals before victims." Prosecutors removed the special circumstance charges for her son's alleged killers, meaning they won't face the possibility of life without parole.More Related News
