Funny thing about banning 3 Strikes. It's illegal for @chesaboudin & @GeorgeGascon to do so
Pen Code sec 667 (g) "The prosecution shall plead & prove all known prior felony serious or violent convictions ..." The word "shall" makes it mandatory.

CA’s 1994 3 Strikes Law has been a disaster.
In 1980 CA had a prison pop of ~23,000.
In 1990, that number grew to ~94,000.
And In 1999, 5 years after passage of 3 Strikes, CA‘s prison population ballooned to 160,000 souls.
3 strikes ends in my office beginning today.
