San Francisco DA Brooke Jenkins fires 15 of Chesa Boudin's staffers
2022-07-17
The times, they are a-changing.
[NY Post] San Francisco’s no-nonsense new district attorney is cleaning house — as she reportedly laid off 15 staffers inherited from her booted, woke predecessor.
Whoa!
The firings Friday by Brooke Jenkins come nearly two weeks after she was appointed district attorney by Mayor London Breed following the recall of her much-maligned predecessor Chesa Boudin, according to SFGATE.com.
The wise politicians tracks and responds to changes in the mood of the public. The technical term is keeping a finger on the pulse...
"Today, I made difficult, but important changes to my management team and staff that will help advance my vision to restore a sense of safety in San Francisco by holding serious and repeat offenders accountable and implementing smart criminal justice reforms," Jenkins said in a statement.

Jenkins dropped the firing ax on most the 25 staffers who worked for Boudin, days after holding a 20-minute introductory meeting with them that some attendees described as "uncomfortable" and "icy," SFGATE.com also reported.

The staffers fired include Arcelia Hurtado, who had worked as managing attorney and served as the DA Office’s representative on the city’s Innocence Commission, which investigates potential wrongful convictions.

Boudin established the commission in 2020. Jenkins told KQED Thursday she intends to continue it.

Why politicians and some businessmen always have to pretend certain decisions are 'difficult'? Just come out and say 'Fuckin' no-brainer, guys - you're all shitcanned!'

#1  She probably suffices as a conservative in San Francisco (aka "The City"). That said I really have no problem with reviewing convictions. There is no place in the justice system for wrongful convictions.
