Also wondering if it violates any rules for a DA to provide name and contact info of witnesses and victims in an ongoing case to a blogger in Tennessee so they can do a hit piece on a reporter who is tough on him.

That info should only be given to the victim advocate and defense Atty. Defense Atty is entitled to it, but should not hand it over either. The whole thing is one giant unprofessional cluster. Also, victim or witness talking to press before conclusion of case can ruin the case

Isn’t this an inconsistent critique? You say victim in Safeway robbery should not have talked to press but it’s ok in this case? To be clear I support a victim doing what they think is best but you shouldn’t switch depending on the case.

(1/x) The case you’re referring to was concluded and V is saying I was lied to. The case I am talking about is potentially open, which means the witness/victims statements to the diff reporters can be used against him and potentially attack his credibility.

ASI understand a case undergoing mental health diversion is still very much open. But if you’d like to compare to other cases ongoing where victims have spoken to the press ok.

(1/x) Technically yes, but not practically. And victim talking tends to hurt the prosecution. So, the problem ends up being the prosecutors. Here you have a prosecutor who isn’t forthcoming w victims, doesn’t appear to know marsy’s law, and tweets at them.

Well it seems to me that Dion Lim is a problem then in pressuring victims to comment on an ongoing prosecution, no? Since she pushed them in commenting on false information

The reporter is just doing their job. Follow and get the story. It’s the prosecutor who has lost all control of the situation. That’s his responsibility. His job. But he doesn’t know how to do it. So attack Dion all you want, the buck stops

If he cannot comment on a case involving juveniles per Washington Post, then how exactly can that be corrected in the face of an unethical reporter? If she pressured victims, it’s very much on her

He has to have control over his cases. The man has lost all control. He tweets at victims. It’s amateur hour over @SFDAOffice.

And just to be clear, having control over cases, includes talking to your victims, keeping them informed, advising them as to the issues that could arise from talking to the press, ensuring their info doesn’t get out to reporters in Philly etc.
