Two former prosecutors, Brooke Jenkins and Don du Bain, want to recall their former boss, District Attorney Chesa Boudin. The two lawyers appeared live on NBC Bay Area on Monday as they debated with current Assistant District Attorney Demarris Evans. Anchor Raj Mathai moderated the conversation, which was split into two segments in the broadcast. Here is part two.
During a heated exchange Monday evening, Assistant District Attorney Demarris Evans defended her office and her boss, DA Chesa Boudin, during a live segment on NBC Bay Area Tonight with anchor Raj Mathai. Evans debated her former colleagues, prosecutors Brooke Jenkins and Don du Bain, who recently quit and joined the effort to recall Boudin. Both Jenkins and du Bain accuse their former boss of making San Francisco more dangerous by regularly lessening charges for violent offenders and, at times, dropping them completely. Evans denied the accusations, calling them politically motivated.
