La conduttrice di Fox News Shannon Bream ha chiesto allo sceriffo Alex Villanueva di reagire ai recenti commenti del procuratore distrettuale di San Francisco Chesa Boudin, who criticized calls for crackdowns on recent crimine spikes as “knee-jerk reactions,” and claimed that “smash-and-grab” thefts in California erano “not new.”
“There’s nothing ‘knee-jerk’ about it. It’s just common sense,” Villanueva said. “This person just does not get it and I’m sorry to hear that. Young ha fatto il passaggio di 40 yard alla Williams nel secondo quarto con circa? He has a responsibility to have – if you want to do reform, è fantastico. No one argues about reforming any system of government.
“But when you fly in the face of common sense, the fact that we have in our county, LA. County … I have a 92 percent increase in omicidi in two years. Ho un 16 percent increase in grand-theft auto. I have a ‘zero bail’ schedule, which means every person I catch with a stolen car gets a ticket, walks out of jail … in fact, they’re out of jail before they’re even done writing the report, the deputies.
“And this person [Boudin] claims it’s a ‘knee-jerk reaction’ to go back to holding people accountable? I think the old-fashioned ‘having people suffer the consequences for engaging in crime’ means something.

“And it’s people … They live in this ‘woke palace’ where they’re not affected by the policies, but the average person IS impacted by them.”
Villanueva claimed that in Los Angeles County there have been more than 12,000 cases in which liberal District Attorney George Gascon has declined to prosecute suspects apprehended by county deputies after alleged crimes.
“So that is disheartening for any cop to think all their work is being undone by a careless and irresponsible district attorney. But they’re not going to stop doing their job. The deputies … keep doing your job, don’t use the excuse of someone else not doing their job to avoid it – and it’s working.

“So we’re making the effort out there. What we need now is, we need responsible district attorneys who are going to file their cases. And if they want to play the role of public defender, they should just quit their job and go over to the public defenders – and everything they say makes perfect sense for a public defender, not a district attorney.”
