LA’s DA, backed by Soros, has 10k cases pending.

Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón Faces Backlog of 10,000 Cases

According to sources who have worked for him, Los Angeles County district attorney George Gascón is sitting on a backlog of 10,000 cases due to his “toxic” management style and woke ideology. The sources claim that Gascón is an “authoritarian” who fights with anyone that disagrees with his leftist politics, resulting in an enormous backlog of cases for Los Angeles prosecutors. More than 120 prosecutors have left since Gascón took office, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Gascón’s Controversial Policies

Gascón, who took office in Los Angeles in 2020 after years as the district attorney in San Francisco, has faced several recall attempts. He is one of several progressive prosecutors funded by liberal billionaire George Soros and was elected on a promise to reduce “mass incarceration.” However, his policies have overseen an increase in crimes as prosecutions have fallen.

Victims’ Families Speak Out

A former deputy district attorney under Gascón said, “In my career as a prosecutor, I’ve never had victims’ families actually hate us until I came into this office.” The source added that families’ anger comes from “lack of prosecution” and “low sentences because of his policies.” The source also said that Gascón’s obsession with lenient punishments for minority offenders is hypocritical, as victims and their families are also black and brown.

Scrutiny of Soros-Backed Prosecutors

Soros-backed prosecutors across the country are facing scrutiny. Kim Gardner, the former top prosecutor in St. Louis, quit her job earlier this month amid a legal battle with Missouri’s attorney general Andrew Bailey, who sought to remove her for neglecting her duties. Chesa Boudin, the former prosecutor in San Francisco, was removed in a June 2022 recall election amid soaring crime in the city. House Republicans are also investigating Alvin Bragg, the Manhattan district attorney, who they claim is politically prosecuting former president Donald Trump and ignoring rising crime. A U.S. attorney backed by Soros resigned last week right before a Department of Justice investigation revealed she violated campaign finance laws and lied under oath.

Conclusion

Gascón’s controversial policies and management style have led to a backlog of 10,000 cases and a loss of reputation for his office. Victims’ families are speaking out against his lenient punishments for minority offenders, and Soros-backed prosecutors across the country are facing scrutiny. It remains to be seen how Gascón will address these issues and whether he will be able to regain the trust of his constituents.
