Ex-NYPD and LAPD boss Bill Bratton: George Soros and aligned prosecutors 'destroying criminal justice system'
Fox News
Left-wing billionaire George Soros and his Open Society foundation are “destroying the criminal justice system in America”, former NYPD Commissioner and ex-LAPD Chief William Bratton told Fox News on Wednesday.
In San Francisco, Democratic Mayor London Breed criticized the ongoing rash of smash-and-grab robberies that critics claim are due in part to a California law that largely decriminalizes most thefts above a certain monetary threshold.
Bratton told "The Story" that police look "with some degree of doubt" on the change in narrative from mayors like Breed.
"In the situation in San Francisco, like many other cities around the country, the mayor does not control the crime problem. The district attorneys are more significant in that situation," he said, pointing to Soros-funded district attorney Chesa Boudin, who is facing a popular recall in 2022.
