Data shows that violent \u200bcrime in the county skyrocketed by 188% in 2023 compared to the previous year, with a staggering 237% rise in Oakland specifically. This surge in crime has created fears for public safety, prompting some offices to warn employees about the risks of\u200b leaving the workplace \u2062for\u2063 meals and leading to the closure of profitable fast food \u200doutlets.<\/p>\n<p>The situation has been exacerbated by delays from Alameda County District Attorney Pamela Price, who has not effectively utilized the assistance\u2063 offered by the Governor\u2019s office since February. Following ongoing outreach from\u2062 Newsom\u2019s\u200b team, a formal letter was sent on July 10, indicating frustration over the lack of\u2064 cooperation and response from Price\u2019s office regarding the deployment of CalGuard resources.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">California sends military prosecutors to Alameda County as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/violent-crime-doubles-in-areas-run-by-soros-backed-das\/\" title=\"Violent Crime Doubles in Areas Run by Soros-Backed DAs\">violent crime doubles<\/a><\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_1722153\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>(The Center Square) &ndash; California Gov.

His office pointed out that District Attorney Pamela Price has caused significant delays in utilizing these resources, shedding light on the challenges facing her office. Violent crime in Alameda County surged by 188% in 2023 compared to the previous year, with Oakland accounting for 74% of this increase and experiencing a staggering 237% rise in violent crime. In February, Newsom offered assistance from CalGuard and the California Department of Justice to help Price&#8217;s office. The escalating crime rates have led some businesses to close their doors and employees are being advised not to leave their offices during lunch breaks due to safety concerns. On July 10, Newsom&#8217;s office sent a letter expressing frustration over Price\u2019s lack of action regarding these resources despite ongoing communication since February about initiating operations and deputizing CalGuard lawyers. Following this correspondence, an agreement was reached between Newsom and Price based on a successful model used in San Francisco. In his statement about the finalized agreement, Newsom emphasized that it aims to enhance accountability and justice for East Bay communities by providing additional prosecutorial resources against criminal activities. Recently, he also urged Oakland officials to rethink their restrictive policies on police pursuits of suspects<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2318576,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/gavin-newsom-oakland.webp","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[37080,4045,37079,37081,32076],"class_list":["post-2318575","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-alameda-county","tag-california","tag-military-prosecutors","tag-violent-crime","tag-washington-examiner"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/gavin-newsom-oakland.webp","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2318575","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2318575"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2318575\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2318576"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2318575"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2318575"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2318575"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
