Here’s the thing. Elected prosecutors will pick the politically advantageous option over the ethical/moral option, every time. Real change doesn’t come by electing “progressive” prosecutors. It comes from changing what we as a society demand of a system labeled “justice.”

Changing what they demand of the justice system is exactly what voters did in LA by electing @GeorgeGascon as DA of Los Angeles County. Same in SF with @chesaboudin. The changes Gascon has made on his first day are breathtaking. The suffering they will eliminate is undeniable.
