Soros DA wants a cold-blooded cop killer to get a light sentence The new Soros-funded LA district attorney George Gascon, a Marxist, ruined San Francisco. He was a police chief turned DA who had never tried a case. Even in San Fran, he wasn’t going to be re-elected, so he went to LA and became the DA. Soros alone gave his campaign $2 million. BACKGROUND Under George Gascon, approximately 61 of the 140 or so attorneys left the San Francisco District Attorney’s Office, 24 in the last 8 months of 2019 alone. More than half of those leaving in those final four years were women, and more than a third were people of color. You can’t prosecute under an inept manager.
