Los Angeles' DA Gascon still silent on crime wave, prosecutor says
Fox News
The head of the union that represents nearly 1,000 prosecutors within Los Angeles County accused District Attorney George Gascon on Monday of keeping silent amid a surge in brazen smash-and-grab burglaries and robberies that have become increasingly violent.
Last week, 14 suspects allegedly involved in 11 smash-and-grab robberies last month were arrested and back on the street hours later because of zero-bail policies. They remain free while awaiting their cases to play out in court.
"If you look at the 14 people arrested, they could have been charged, there could have been bail amounts set, but none of that was done because the district attorney refuses to take a leadership position on this issue," Siddall told Fox News. "He's created an atmosphere devoid of accountability."
In a statement to Fox News, Alex Bastian, special advisor to Gascon, said the DA's office was working with law enforcement and will review the cases to determine what criminal charges are appropriate.
