SAN FRANCISCO (LifeSiteNews) – The District Attorney for San Francisco has been recalled.
D.A. Chesa Boudin was recalled after over 60 percent of the city’s residents voiced their dissatisfaction with his soft-on-crime approach by voting for his removal.
Richie Greenberg, who helped lead the recall initiative, called its success “bittersweet.” He mourned the loss of businesses and lives due to increased crime in San Francisco under Boudin.
“We shouldn’t be popping champagne bottles,” he said. “People have died under Chesa Boudin’s watch. Lives have been ruined, families broken, businesses shuttered.”
One of the leaders of Black Lives Matter in Los Angeles, Melina Abdullah, praised Boudin as “one of the most committed, visionary DAs in the nation.” He vowed not to let a similar recall take place in LA.
