San Diego County District Attorney Summer Stephan’s decision to lift all 20 injunctions against street gangs in six cities around the county is long overdue. Allowing city or district attorneys to obtain lifetime lifetime! restrictions on the movement and activities of individuals who allegedly belong to gangs even if they’ve never been convicted of a crime is a staggering intrusion into people’s lives. It is amazing that such laws have persisted to this day despite sharp criticism of their vagueness by U.S. Supreme Court majorities in 1983 (involving a San Diego case) and in 1999 (a Chicago case).

SAN DIEGO
In a move some view as a win for criminal justice reform, San Diego County Dist. Atty. Summer Stephan said this week that her office has filed petitions in court to lift all 20 injunctions against street gangs in cities throughout the county.
Seven of the 20 gang injunctions court-approved orders that restrict the movements of alleged gang members were dissolved as of Tuesday, with approval from judges in San Diego Superior Court.
