LA DA George Gascon slams victim’s family as they protest sentencing plan

Los Angeles’ controversial new district attorney told the family of a murder victim they should “keep their mouth shut” — unwittingly, he later said — as they protested his office’s kid-gloves handling of the accused killers.

“It’s unfortunate that some people do not have enough education to keep their mouth shut for a moment so we can talk,” George Gascon said in a video obtained by FOX 11 Los Angeles.

“My son can never speak again because he was murdered,” shouts a woman identified as the mother of Joshua Rodriguez, who was kidnapped and killed in 2015.

“My son matters!” she screamed as Gascon walked away. “And you’re going to do nothing about it!”

Another leftist DA.

His slate of planned changes, including an end to bail and to arrests for crimes like trespass, disturbing the peace, and public intoxication, have drawn outrage from victims’ rights groups — but are in line with similar reforms being made by lefty DAs across the country.

Gascon later apologized for his outburst.

“I did not understand what they were yelling about until later, let alone that they were victims,” he said in a statement. “Regardless, it’s not how I should have reacted. Clearly, this family is in pain.”

Liberals have yet to figure out they should be seldom seen and never heard.

Ahh yes. Another California leftist political hack coddling criminal scum while the law abiding citizens under their jurisdiction are treated as second class citizens.

Is anybody really surprised to learn that George Soros contributed $3.6 million to Gascon's election?

Gascon is doing exactly what Soros wants - destroy the U.S. (though it could be argued that Commiefornia isn't really a part of the U.S. any more) a little bit at a time.

The former DA of Los Angeles that gascon defeated was a black female democrat (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackie_Lacey ), but I guess she wasn't woke enough for the left and they had to replace her with an old white man.  So much for the left and their insistence in getting women of color in important political offices.

Not so sure about the "woke" crap -- more likely, Gascon knows exactly who is boss and salutes the Soros flag.

Another thought, FWIW -- Garcetti is decidedly against normal people in small business. How much and how far has he been bought by Soros?
