Insider pick? A former police commissioner is unhappy with Mayor Breed's D.A. appointment SanFrancisco
Jenkins is a former prosecutor for Boudin's office, but resigned last year to join the campaign that called for his removal."She sacrificed her career to fight for people in this city to fight for victims who needed a voice in this city," said Breed. Breed held a news conference on Thursday where she formally introduced Jenkins as the city's new district attorney.
"As a Black and Latina woman, I have seen the imbalances and disproportionate impacts of our criminal justice firsthand. I have had family members on both sides of the courtroom," she said. "My family has seen and felt the impacts of police violence. The inequity in the criminal justice system is not theoretical to me—it is part of my lived experience."
"Our Asian community can no longer live in fear of being attacked simply because of who they are," she said. "She has kind of aligned herself with the police union and the Republicans in the recall and it also calls for a return to policies of mass incarceration," said Hamasaki. In an interview with KTVU back in April Jenkins said Boudin was too lax on crime and failed to protect San Franciscans.
