LA mom mowed down by teen driver blasts DA Gascon over soft sentence

A furious Los Angeles mom who was mowed down with her baby by a hit-and-run teen driver has lashed out at soft-on-crime District Attorney George Gascon after the perp was given just five months probation.

The mother, only identified as Rachel, took aim at LA’s top prosecutor in a scathing victim impact statement after the 16-year-old driver was ordered to participate in a diversionary program over the August 2021 incident, Fox News reported Friday.

“George Gascon doesn’t value my life or the life of my child, or any other victim out there, and would rather reward the monsters like [the juvenile suspect] by demonstrating to them that their actions have no consequences,” Rachel wrote.

“DA Gascon is telling him and every other thug in LA County that it doesn’t matter if you try to murder people. Why are Gascon’s policies prioritizing the livelihood of rotten monsters when my child, my baby, who is incapable of protecting himself, is left to fend for himself, and is essentially being told his life doesn’t matter?”

Shocking surveillance video of the incident showed the teen plowing directly into Rachel as she pushed her 8-month-old son in his stroller down a Venice street the morning of August 6.

“Teen”, pretty sure if he was white and she not, race would be mentioned. Of course, it does not matter, but they write the narrative, so just playing along.

"...ordered to participate in a diversionary program..."

"...PLUS he STOLE the vehicle! ..."

Good.
Maybe in the 'diversionary program' the perp can learn
that whenever he has the urge to steal a car, drive recklessly,
and mow down bystanders, he should pause - and divert his attention
to doing something else - like playing a video game.

A nice 'wholesome' one, like Grand Theft Auto.

LOL
/S

>>Mowed…

They keep using that word.

I don’t think it means what they think it means.

Based on the way she risked almost certain death to protect her infant, I think I can hazard a guess.

I’m surprised with all those killers in LA that none has gone after Gascon.

All the people in California should remember they voted to keep Gavin Nobrain in office and could vote to recall Gascon but didn’t so enjoy what you voted for.

Kill the guy that’s letting you commit crime and keeping you out of jail? Brilliant!

So a felon who should have been charged with attempted murder gets five months probation? ... oh, and they won't reveal his (its) name because the attempted murderer is a "teen"? Well, it is the Democrat/Communist hell-hole of LA, so there's that.

This type of sentence gives voice to those who retaliate on behalf of the victims. Gascon is all gas and all con.

Are you saying the Newsom recall election was fixed? If that is the case, I’ll bet you think the 2020 Presidential Election was stolen.
