13. What we found next is one of the most disturbing findings in our investigation into who was funding Sacramento DA Anne Marie Schubert. In 2014, she got the 1st of many HUGE loans, this one for $100,000 from a man named Michael Tsuchida. Guess what? He's a retired cop.

14. In May 2015, Sacramento DA Anne Marie Schubert received $500 from the Peace Officers Research Association of California PAC. It's what happened next that is particularly disturbing and rather unprecedented for a DA - particularly one supported by Democrats in California.

15. Despite still not being in a campaign, DA Schubert received yet another $25,000 from the Sacramento County Deputy Sheriffs’ Association in October 2016. This came in the wake of so many horrible incidents of police violence. What she did with the money is very problematic.

16. Schubert gave $2,500 to No on Prop 62/Yes on Prop 66, the campaign to save the death penalty in California and speed up the death row appeals process. In doing so, Schubert stood in opposition to the consensus of editorial boards across California. What's next is even worse.

17. On Prop 57, Schubert did something out of step w/ voters. She spent $9,223.46 on printing and processing, and $13,970.94 on postage, for a statewide mailer asking voters to oppose Prop 57 — the most popular criminal justice reform initiative ever put before California voters.

18. Designed to speed up parole for nonviolent offenders and to overhaul policies on juveniles in the justice system, voters approved the measure 64 percent to 36 percent, by a margin of nearly 4 million votes. Schubert fought against it tooth and nail - & with money from police.

19. In March 2017, Schubert received $1,500 from the Sacramento Police Officers Association; then another $1,500 from the Sacramento County Probation Association PAC; $3,000 from the Sacramento County Law Enforcement Managers Association.

20. $500 more from the Peace Officers Research Association came in. Then came $3,000 from the Sacramento County Deputy Sheriffs’ Association, which has been the most reliable donor to Schubert’s campaigns — her next large donation from the group was $5,000 in September.
