Los Angeles DA George Gascon ‘overstates his authority,’ can’t ignore California law, court rules


"On the merits, we conclude the voters and the Legislature created a duty, enforceable in mandamus, that requires prosecutors to plead prior serious or violent felony convictions to ensure the alternative sentencing scheme created by the three strikes law applies to repeat offenders," the ruling said. "The district attorney overstates his authority. He is an elected official who must comply with the law, not a sovereign with absolute, unreviewable discretion."

Gascon should be recalled.

This ruling could be a precedent for other states where far left Democrat DA’s are not prosecuting criminals.
