Fox News
Embattled Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón is backpedaling on a number of hardline progressive directives he issued upon taking office in late 2020, according to a series of memos he sent to his office Friday regarding how to handle serious crimes.
Soon after taking office, he had banned deputy DAs from seeking the death penalty, life without parole, enhanced charges for particularly heinous crimes and trying juveniles in adult court in grievous cases.
