New San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins fired 15 people in her office on Friday, with one in particular prompting an outcry. It comes in the first week after Jenkins was appointed by Mayor London Breed following the recall of Chesa Boudin.

"Today, I made difficult, but important changes to my management team and staff that will help advance my vision to restore a sense of safety in San Francisco by holding serious and repeat offenders accountable and implementing smart criminal justice reforms," Jenkins said in a statement.

Managing Attorney Arcelia Hurtado was the first member of the office to lose her job. She had served as the DA Office's representative on the city's Innocence Commission, which investigates potential wrongful convictions in the city. The commission was established by Boudin in 2020.

"I'll be interested to see what she does there," Cat Brooks, co-founder of the progressive Anti Police-Terror Project said of Jenkins.

If liberals are terrified, that’s a good thing.

Terrifying?

Good! I hope it is terrifying watching their make believe
world crumble.

Those people need to be relegated to the very back of the
line.

Has to be more conservative just looking at her. LOL

Okay, good moves on Friday. Lets see how this plays out.

Is it all talk, or is she sharp enough to pull off what needs
to be done?

I wish her well as long as she toes the line.

"I had every intention to continue working to fight the obscene racial disparities that permeate the San Francisco criminal legal system...

Yeah, I'm not seeing a lot of 'racial disparities' in those who are committing a majority of the crimes.

Racial disparities are there with convicted people, because
people of certain groups seem to want to chance being caught
and placed in prison, more than people from other groups.

Some of these idiots act like we all want to see very Black
person locked up in prison. No, we want every criminal
locked up in prison.

Why would we want an honest productive person of any race
to sit idly in prison? It just doesn’t make sense.

Is it possible that she’s purging these people to replace them with her own,
Loyal set of progressives that are just as bad?

There is absolutely nothing ‘progressive’ about Progressives. Just like there was absolutely nothing progressive or constructive that the Bolsheviks and all the subsequent wannabe Bolsheviks have ever done - or ever will do.

Nothing but misery comes from anything even remotely connected to that lazy, fat, unethical, narcissistic, envious, cruel to his wife, leach with daddy issues - Marx.

Only the stupid and academics (but I repeat myself) think he was anything more than a ‘know it all’ ignoramus.

is currently considering the petition by Mayor London Breed’s brother Napoleon Brown to be granted leniency and released from prison following his conviction for carjacking and manslaughter. I can see no legitimate reason for firing an attorney as rigorous, competent and ethical as Arcelia.”

Maybe Breed doesn't want Napoleon Brown out of jail.

San Francisco used to be a great place, a all American city.
A Navy town with a lot of military folks .
The hippies and Haight Asbury summer of love started the slide towards a leftist heck hole.
Let’s hope it can move back towards sanity.

Probably be a good idea to establish a “YOUR GUILTY COMMISSION”.
