DA 2020

Actually - despite the picture - the district attorney of LA County is a woman, perhaps a concept that would have surprised the producers of the old radio show and comic book.

The 2020 election is coming up and most of the attention at present is on the presidential race and not so much on local offices. But, as it happens, the current DA is up for re-election. We were reminded of that fact by a recent op ed in the Bruin.*

Apart from the complaints in the Bruin, the relation between the current DA and UCLA has not always been one of friendly accord. We have noted some issues on this blog regarding her (mis)handling of a case involving a UCLA faculty member. You can find a link to our earlier coverage at:

Yours truly suggests checking out the story before voting for DA.
