As a marijuana legalization-supporting, Trump-trolling 2020 Democratic presidential candidate, U.S. Senator Harris portrays her career in law-enforcement as that of a "progressive prosecutor," an empathetic and thoughtful purveyor of help who addressed the root causes of crime rather than merely punishing wrongdoers. But Trulove's case is perhaps the most glaring contradiction in Harris' record, one critics like him say is littered with carceral overkill she declines to acknowledge.

He boxed himself into a demented corner when he said he would pick a black vp.

He picked what he (not he, i’m sure somebody else) thought was the least psychotic and most white looking.

She has a brutal record as a prosecutor and Trump is gonna slam her for it.

Biden is never going to pick her. Why? Because she’s black or looks black although I wish he would pick her. Biden is as racist as it gets and the democraps will nominate him which is ironic as hell being that they played up this “Trump is racist” crap for the past 4 years. Biden WILL pick Fauxcahontas as his running mate.

I believe Joe Biden (or his handlers) picked Kamala Harris as his running mate weeks ago. All the perps wrongfully convicted during her reign as California Attorney General should speak up.

The Harris presidential primary campaign never recovered from when Tulsi Gabbard blasted her in the second debate, July 31, 2019.

TAPPER: I want to bring in Congresswoman Gabbard. Congresswoman Gabbard, you took issue with Senator Harris confronting Vice President Biden at the last debate. You called it a quote, false accusation that Joe Biden is a racist. What's your response?

GABBARD: I want to bring the conversation back to the broken criminal justice system that is disproportionately negatively impacting black and brown people all across this country today. Now Senator Harris says she's proud of her record as a prosecutor and that she'll be a prosecutor president.

But I'm deeply concerned about this record. There are too many examples to cite but she put over 1,500 people in jail for marijuana violations and then laughed about it when she was asked if she ever smoked marijuana.

(APPLAUSE)

She blocked evidence — she blocked evidence that would have freed an innocent man from death row until the courts forced her to do so. She kept people in prison beyond their sentences to use them as cheap labor for the state of California.

(APPLAUSE)

TLDR: Side issue: another biased tech company

Jamal Trulove says that Kamala Harris was present when his guilty verdict was read. She laughed at him when he looked at her after the verdict. He was later able to get a retrial because of prosecutorial misconduct and was found innocent. (Harris was no longer SF Attorney General and was not present for the second trial).

I asked iask.ai why Harris was present for the original verdict when she was not the prosecuting attorney. The AI responded with this nonsensical puff piece claiming that Harris was there to symbolically express her opposition to false convictions. At the time however, Harris publicly praised the woman whose perjury was key to the conviction. She expressed no opposition to the verdict.

Kamala Harris’s Role

Kamala Harris, who served as the Attorney General of California from 2011 to 2017, was involved in various criminal justice reform initiatives during her tenure. Although she was not directly involved in Trulove’s case, her office oversaw many aspects of California’s criminal justice system during the time Trulove was convicted. As a prominent figure in discussions about wrongful convictions and criminal justice reform, her presence in the courtroom when the guilty verdict was delivered could be interpreted as a symbolic gesture supporting justice and accountability within the legal system.

The Verdict Delivery

When Jamal Trulove’s conviction was overturned and he was exonerated, it marked a significant moment not only for him but also for advocates of criminal justice reform. Kamala Harris attended the courtroom during this pivotal moment likely to emphasize her commitment to addressing wrongful convictions and supporting those who have been unjustly imprisoned.

Conclusion

In summary, Kamala Harris was present in the courtroom when Jamal Trulove’s guilty verdict was delivered as part of her ongoing commitment to criminal justice reform and advocacy against wrongful convictions. Her attendance highlighted the importance of ensuring that justice is served fairly and that individuals are held accountable for their actions within the legal system.
