Polly Klaas' father calls Gov. Newsom 'a pig' for death penalty moratorium
Fox News
Marc Klaas, father of murdered 12-year-old Polly Klaas, called California Gov. Gavin Newsom "a pig" for his 2019 moratorium on the state's death penalty.
"Newsom is a pig," Marc Klaas, who runs a nonprofit to prevent crimes against children called Klaas Kids, told Fox News Digital. "In 2019, he declared a death penalty moratorium in California. He told me, among other things, that he didn’t want to be the governor who executes an innocent person." Audrey Conklin is a digital reporter for Fox News Digital and FOX Business.

Under Newsom's moratorium, no one in California can be executed while he is in the governor's office. Klaas said Newsom's order displays "advocacy for the worst and most dangerous people in our society."
