Let's take a look at her record. As
@HamasakiLaw points out in his excellent thread & as the piece itself reveals, she wanted to re-prosecute a clearly insane convicted man so he could go to prison instead of a mental hospital. This was after she got her shot and the jury hung.1 reply 3 retweets 65 likesShow this thread -

What "progressive prosecutor" teams up with Republican tech bros to recall her former boss after she doesn't get her carceral wishes met? Reporters, please. Do better. Be journalists, not stenographers.
