Embattled Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón's staffers say he was shamed into changing his stance on 'outlier' juvenile sentencing because of a bombshell report that suggested one of the criminals he advocated for had little remorse.
He flip-flopped on his famously reformative approach to justice last week after jailhouse audio recordings obtained by Fox News captured transgender pedophile Hannah Tubbs bragging about her light sentence in a juvenile facility.
Tubbs was sentenced to two years in jail for molesting a 10-year-old girl inside a restaurant bathroom.
After the top prosecutor became aware of troubling comments Tubbs made in jail - including that she wouldn't have to register as a sex offender and that 'nothing' would be done to punish her - Gascón said he's rethinking his approach.
'It's unfortunate that she gamed the system,' Gascón told the Los Angeles Times. 'If I had to do it all over again, she would be prosecuted in adult court.'
However, his critics say his apparent remorse is just a public stunt as recall efforts against him grow.
'He knew Fox was going to run with those tapes. It was damage-control time,' Eric Siddall, a deputy district attorney and outspoken critic of the DA, told the Times.
Amid growing frustration with the progressive prosecutor, more than 600 deputy district attorneys throughout LA county endorsed his recall Tuesday during an Association of Deputy District Attorneys meeting.
Gascón was sworn in as LA County's 43rd district attorney in December 2020, and critics have blamed him for a spike in violent crime in the region.
Los Angeles has seen a 54 percent increase in murders since 2019, a rise in the number of street shootings since 2020, and an increase in the number of armed holdups.

Anybody with a pulse can be paid to do nothing 🤪
‘If I had to do it all over again, she would be prosecuted in adult court.’ What a wonderful admission from this piece of dung.
Soros henchman.
Sorry I got caught being the a-hole that I am…
There are more than 600 deputy DAs in LA county?
Holy moley.
Woke Soros puppet, Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón, should be serving the rest of the sentence he failed to give to the pedophile. It’s clear cut aiding and abetting.
*He
In nearly every mention of Tubbs, they call him female, which is simply inexcusable, but hey, hate crime laws in the UK probably force this issue.
And that poor young lady. Tubbs fvcked up any chance of the victim having a functional sexual relationahip with a potential future husband, and that is so sad.
I hope he sees fit to walk in front of a train. One which is movong just quickly enough.
.
The judge is lying when he says he regrets it and he is lying when he says he would do it differently - he is going to do the same in future cases.
Gascan was the real juvenile in this case. He should be locked up down at juvie.
Headline is now 60% shorter and 100% clearer / more honest!
Regards,
He;s a HE....NOT a she!
All that is a lie. He cares nothing about remorse, lack of remorse, etc.
He got caught. He's a scumbag commie and should be in gitmo ....... forever.
He's whining because he's been outed as a scumbag.
The left are reprobates.
