This past Tuesday, April 27, Deputy DA and prosecutor Jonathan Hatami announced city leaders from La Mirada and Whittier voted for “no confidence” in DA George Cason’s policies.
These cities join Beverly Hills, Pico Rivera and Santa Clarita who have already voted no confidence in Gascon’s reform policies.
The cities of Norwalk and Santa Fe Springs are said to be considering the same vote at their next council meetings.
Gascon began pushing to eliminate all ‘special allegations‘ making approximately 20,000 inmates eligible for re-sentencing.
On his first day of the job, Gascon issued a number of directives stating that these special enhancements lead to mass incarceration.
