George Gascón has failed us. As a violent crimes prosecutor, I’ve put a cop killer, serial rapists and members of MS-13 behind bars. Now I’m running for L.A. District Attorney to turn the tide on violent crime.

California has some of the toughest gun laws in the nation, but those laws don’t matter if people like @GeorgeGascon and Pamela Price @AlamedaCountyDA don’t care enough to use them.

California Could Further Reduce Gun Violence. If Only We’d Do It.

By Eric W. Siddall For as long as he’s been our governor, Gavin Newsom has advocated for stronger gun laws. On the national level, he has condemned lax enforcement in Florida, Texas, and Missouri,…

And, as this story makes clear, he still believes he is above the law and beyond question. That may be how you do things when you’ve afraid of political backlash. It may be how George likes it. But it’s not how we do it under our system of justice.

Every defendant, every victim, and every fact pattern is unique. Our approach to each case should reflect those variations. That’s why I’m committed to violence reduction, reserving the harshest punishments for the most violent criminals.

“The office is in crisis,” said Siddall, who presented himself as part of “a new generation of prosecutors” who neither embraces Gascón’s more liberal policies nor wants to “to turn back the clock” to policies that fuel mass incarceration.

I am wondering why @GeorgeGascon refused to disclose to the public and the press that he was not filing two police related shootings until late today. Why did he wait a week? What happened to transparency? Pathetic. @JamesQueallyLAT @anblanx @LeonardFiles @StoltzeFrankly

For the record: The guy @GeorgeGascon who says everything is someone else's fault - and who claims policy flip-flops are just "clarifications" - is going to educate the public on "misinformation"?!

No amount of electioneering or outside campaign spending will erase the failures and incompetency of @GeorgeGascon 's first — and only — term as LA DA. The Jewish Journal explains why.

The Heat Is On

With multiple lawsuits pending over allegations of workplace retaliation, and continued criticism that he’s too soft on crime, L.A. District Attorney George Gascón is facing his toughest challenge.

Had the pleasure of speaking with @DanaPerino this morning about the absurd results of @GeorgeGascon ’s policies. When prosecutorial decision making is purely political, we get terrible results.

Gascón has made clear that lessening any punishment defendants face, and reversing punishment for already in state prison, are his priorities. Abandonment of victims targeted for their membership in a racial minority is a result of these policies.

Los Angeles needs a DA with both prosecution and leadership experience who can be a reliable partner to everyone in the justice system - not just those who commit violent crimes. @GeorgeGascon has shown little interest in working with anyone other than his political cronies.
