@EskSF is now asking@chesaboudin about the Troy McAllister case https://www.sfexaminer.com/news/da-court-filing-says-office-missed-parolees-out-of-control-spiral/ … and then pivots to his management experience.

#SF is now filing its own parole revocations, and that's a big change,@chesaboudin says. On how he's running the office, "the biggest challenge has not been management or working with@SFPDChief Scott, it's keeping wheel of justice turning" amid a pandemic.Show this thread -

A correction:
@SFPDChief Scott's apology was aimed at folks who say they're dissuaded from reaching out to police and filling a report because of claims that DA@chesaboudin won't follow up.Show this thread - End of conversation
