That's m i ro dot com. 26 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: We have an LA County Deputy DA here in the studio, 27 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 1: Ed Wiley, to explain a case that burst into the 28 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: news today. It's another George Gascone special. It's about Andrew 29 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: Kachu who was seventeen when he shot and killed a 30 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 1: forty one year old man named Lewis Emilia outside a 31 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: Palmdale restaurant. He was sentenced to fifty years to life, 32 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 1: but because he was tried an adult court. But with 33 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 1: Prop fifty seven and George Gascone, he was led out 34 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: at the age of twenty five. Yeah. Prop fifty seven says, 35 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:15,359 Speaker 1: go back and rethink what happened to someone who was 36 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 1: tried an adult court and maybe that wasn't the right decision. 37 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 1: And of course George Gascone believes if you commit a 38 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: crime and you're under the age of eighteen, even if 39 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: by days, you have to be given lighter treatment just 40 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 1: because of that, and he got out in six years. 41 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 1: This week, Kuchu was arrested for felony of aiding, felony 42 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 1: in possession, possession of meth for sale, possession of cocaine 43 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: for sale, duy under the influence of drugs, and drugs 44 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:44,920 Speaker 1: and gun. Those are all six separate charges because he 45 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 1: was a bad guy and he got let out after 46 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: six years instead of fifty. And there's a whole story 47 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 1: behind this, because we have the prosecuting attorney who was 48 00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 1: taken off the case and replaced with a one of 49 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: these public defender people that gascon run into the na's 50 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 1: office named Elsa Blair, And we're gonna talk to Ed 51 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: Wiley now and he's going to tell us the whole 52 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: story because it's quite colorful what happened to him. Ed, 53 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 1: how are you. I'm great, good afternoon, John, and Cannon 54 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: is great to be with both of you. First of all, 55 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 1: I have two things to say. Number One, I'm speaking 56 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 1: as an individual, private person, not on behalf of the 57 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: District Attorney's Office of the or the County of Los Angeles, 58 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,679 Speaker 1: and that all the opinions and views that I express 59 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 1: are my own and not necessarily those of the disc 60 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: attorney's office. That's number one. Number two, I'm not running 61 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: for district attorney. I have no interest in running for 62 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 1: district right That's it's like a common criticism. Let's hope though, 63 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 1: we have a recall and somebody's running, because that's what 64 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 1: we're gonna need to get on the ballot. Okay, tell 65 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: us about this, Andrew kachu Okay, So how is he arrested? 66 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 1: What are the circumstances of the crime. Well, today's arrest was, 67 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: as I'm sorry, your rest two days ago was as 68 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 1: a result of a phone call from a concerned citizen 69 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: that there was a car blocking traffic. And by the way, 70 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: this is a freshly filed case number m AOI three 71 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 1: five five five. He was just arraigned this afternoon in 72 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:20,040 Speaker 1: open public court in Antalope Valley Department A one. Officers responded, 73 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 1: I haven't read any reports, but I know a little 74 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:26,159 Speaker 1: bit about the facts, and it's still an ongoing investigation, 75 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: so I don't want to say too much about it. 76 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: But officers responded, there was someone who appeared to be 77 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: disabled in the car they approached, a gun was flashed, 78 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: a felony pursuit started through the surface streets of Antalope Valley, 79 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:44,040 Speaker 1: lasted about three miles, running through stop signs, running through 80 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: red lights, driving the wrong way against traffic until there 81 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 1: was a crash into a parked car. A foot chase ensued, 82 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 1: and that after that foot chase, mister mister Kachu threw 83 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 1: his gun away while he was being chased a concerned 84 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,360 Speaker 1: city and pointed deputies to where the gun was, and 85 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: he ultimately surrendered and was taken into custody. That's the 86 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,479 Speaker 1: very bare facts of that case. And this is the 87 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 1: end of basically a seven year process that started in 88 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: twenty fifteen when, as you said, he murdered Louis Samila, 89 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: forty one year old innocent civilian, in a gang robbery 90 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 1: murder over a bicycle. Louis Amila was shot multiple times 91 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:33,039 Speaker 1: in the back over a bicycle. At that time, the 92 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 1: Attorney's office had the option to the discretion to review 93 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 1: the case and determine whether or not it should be 94 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 1: a juvenile filing or an adult filing in this case, 95 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: based on the fact that he was a few weeks 96 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 1: shive of his eighteenth birthday, based on the fact that 97 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: it was a heinous crime and execution shot in the back. 98 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,359 Speaker 1: The Hardcore Gang Division filed it in an adult case. 99 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,080 Speaker 1: He was tried by the Hardcore Gang Division in twenty 100 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: sixteen along with one of his other homely friends, and 101 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: they were both sentenced to fifty to life, and then 102 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,279 Speaker 1: Prop fifty seven was passed. Prop fifty seven basically says 103 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 1: the District Attorney's office no longer has that discretion to 104 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 1: decide whether to file an adult court on someone who 105 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 1: was a minor when he committed the crime. So what 106 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: happened was the case came back on remand from the 107 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: California Court of Appeals who affirmed the conviction and affirmed 108 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: the fifty year sentence, but said pursue it to the 109 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: people's vote on Prop fifty seven. The Juvenile Division and 110 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,840 Speaker 1: Annalo Valley is to conduct a transfer hearing. That's where 111 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 1: I came in. I inherited the case as a newly 112 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: assigned Hardcore Gang DA to the Annalop Valley court House. 113 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: Somewhere around the middle of twenty eighteen, I started appearing 114 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: on proceedings in the case. There were some delays. The 115 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 1: defense attorney was having a hard time getting his shrink 116 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: into jail to talk to defend Kuchu, and so it 117 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 1: hung around for about another year, and then COVID struck 118 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 1: and slowed everything down. We were still proceeding forward. Mister 119 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 1: Gascone was sworn in on December seventh, twenty twenty. We 120 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: received the directives. Three minutes after he was sworn in, 121 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: we received the Youth Justice Policy, co authored by Elissa Blair, 122 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: instructing us to withdraw all transfer hearings and to dismiss 123 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: all gang and gun allegations, so at the next possible 124 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: court appearance. The next possible court appearance for mister Kachu 125 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: was January. Late January of twenty twenty one. I filed 126 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: the required motion George gascon Is ordering me to withdraw 127 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 1: this transfer hearing petition in January. The judge kicked it 128 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 1: to a February twenty fifth court date. I appeared again 129 00:07:56,480 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 1: February twenty five, twenty twenty one, and on that fourth date, 130 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 1: Judge Brian yeapp in Department A nine at Anaelope Valley said, 131 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 1: mister Wiley, can you give me any reason why we 132 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: should withdraw this transfer hearing petition? Why the courts should 133 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: withdraw it? And I said, no, your honor, there are 134 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 1: no interests of justice pursuing the Penal Code Section thirteen 135 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: eighty five and withdrawing this transfer hearing. At that point, 136 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: the judge said it for transfer hearing and said we 137 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 1: will proceed forward with the transfer hearing. So as we're 138 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: proceeding forward with the transfer hearing on April first, it 139 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 1: is announced that on April fifteenth of twenty twenty one, 140 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:42,319 Speaker 1: the Hardcore Gang Division will be disbanded. And I'm notified 141 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 1: that the Andrew Cochu case is being taken over by 142 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 1: Deputy District Attorney, former public defender, co author of the 143 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: Youth Justice Policy, Alyssa Blair, and she first appears on 144 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 1: the case on May tenth of twenty twenty one. There 145 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: was kind of an infamous jail call that came out 146 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: between Bertha Kachu and her son Andrew Kuchu on that date, 147 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 1: where Bertha Kuchu was exclaiming, this is the person I've 148 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 1: been talking to emailing with, this is Gasgon's new special assistant. 149 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:22,559 Speaker 1: Don't worry, Miho, She's got you. You're going to be free. Essentially, 150 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: in that jail call on that date, Elissa Blair told 151 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: the court, Yeah, the people aren't going to be going 152 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: forward with a transfer hearing. So then there was some 153 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 1: intervening dates where that the new defense attorney for mister 154 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: Kachu went to the California Court of Appeals who ordered 155 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: Judge Yepp to conduct the transfer hearing. The people have 156 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 1: the power to file it, the people have the I'm sorry. 157 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 1: They ordered judgeep to withdraw the transfer petition, asserting that 158 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:58,559 Speaker 1: only the people have the power to file and only 159 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:02,320 Speaker 1: the people have the to withdraw the transfer hearing and 160 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 1: because George Yepp ordered it withdrawn it, George Gasgone ordered 161 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: it withdrawn. Brian Yepp withdrew it. Then it was set 162 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 1: for a juvenile adjudication, which is essentially a juvenile trial. 163 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 1: Judge Yepp found, based on the adult conviction that he 164 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:26,359 Speaker 1: was liable for the murder and the robbery. He sustained 165 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: the petition and on November first of twenty twenty one, 166 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: in court, he asked the two attorneys to consider what 167 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:41,199 Speaker 1: the appropriate sentence was. Deputy District Attorney Alyssa Blair rested 168 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: her case on the three page probation report.

Stop there and we will continue listening to story. 201 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 1: Ed is a La County Deputy DA. He is not 202 00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 1: here representing the DA's office. He is here on his 203 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: own accord, and he had one point had a case 204 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 1: involving a man by the name of Kutchu. He was 205 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 1: apparently a juvenile just short of his eighteenth birthday when 206 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 1: he murdered another man, and he was tried as an adult. 207 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: He got a long prison sentence, but thanks to Prop 208 00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 1: fifty seven and George Gascone, he only served six years 209 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,599 Speaker 1: and as you just heard Ed say, was released. And 210 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: the reason he's back in the news. He's just been 211 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 1: picked up on new charges. More coming up, Johnny ken 212 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 1: caf i'd talking about the case of Andrew Kuchu. When 213 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 1: he was seventeen years old and twenty fifteen, he shot 214 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:15,719 Speaker 1: and killed a forty one year old and palm lean 215 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 1: named Lewis Amila. He got fifty years to life. Prop 216 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 1: fifty seven was passed George Gascon got into office and 217 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 1: that was reduced to about five years six years. He 218 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: came out at the age of twenty four and a 219 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: half and he has been free since last fall. Today 220 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 1: he got arrested and arraigned for felony evading, felonine, possession 221 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 1: of meth amphetamine, cocaine, d y under drugs, possession of 222 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 1: a gun, whole ream of crimes. And our guest years 223 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 1: Ed Wiley. He was the original prosecutor on the case 224 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: until Gascone took him off and put a former public defender, yeah, 225 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 1: named Alyssa Blair. Blair right, one of those people that 226 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:06,200 Speaker 1: tweeted out after the whole George Floyd Uprising basically burn 227 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: it down. That's background. So she's an extreme radical. Now 228 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:14,679 Speaker 1: ed if this guy Kachu was involved in a shooting 229 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 1: just a few weeks ago. Yes, apparently according to the reports, 230 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 1: and I don't have a lot of information, no case 231 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: has been filed. There was a gang shooting outside of 232 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 1: liquor store in Palmdale, and shortly after the gangs shooting, 233 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 1: Andrew Kachu walked into the Palmdale Regional Medical shooting Palmdale 234 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 1: Regional Medical Hospital with a gunshot wound. His arm. Officers 235 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 1: were called, they responded, he talked to them and absolutely 236 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: refused to cooperate. So nothing happened. There's been no case filing. 237 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: That's just three weeks ago. Prior to him being caught 238 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 1: with a gun two days ago on the nineteenth, driving 239 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 1: around the neighborhood with an awful lot of drugs and 240 00:14:55,840 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: guns together. You see an active gang member. Well to 241 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 1: George Gasgone, who released a press statement earlier today, he says, 242 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 1: we are disappointed to learn that mister Kuchu has not 243 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 1: availed himself of the support that he so clearly needs, 244 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 1: and there's no support. Jurisdiction was terminated when when he 245 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 1: walked free from the NLP Valley Courthouse on November fourth 246 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty one, no programs were ordered, there was 247 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: no you gotta report to this, you gotta do that. 248 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:31,359 Speaker 1: You gotta go get anger management classes, nothing, no programs. 249 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 1: He was turned loose on the community. Is he an 250 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 1: active gang member? While he has a big D tattooed 251 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 1: on his neck, on the front of his neck. His 252 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 1: gang that the twenty fifteen murder occurred in support of 253 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 1: is a gang called down DAF down as I'll let 254 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 1: everybody imagine what the last word is in the DAF 255 00:15:55,360 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 1: so gascone put him out on the street, knowing all this, 256 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 1: knowing all these things. And further on in the statement 257 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 1: he released today, he cites to California law and he 258 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 1: says in his statement that there have been questions about 259 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 1: a prior case involving mister Kachu where he was sentenced 260 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 1: as a juvenile will First of all, he was sentenced 261 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 1: as an adult. He was sentenced as an adult for 262 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,160 Speaker 1: the murder in twenty fifteen. Then he came back to 263 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 1: juvenile court. And when he got sentenced in juvenile court, 264 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 1: he got sentenced to freedom. He got sentenced to walk 265 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 1: out on the street. He'd already served about four and 266 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 1: a half five years in custody. He was twenty four 267 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 1: and a half years old. When Judge Bryan Yep released him. 268 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 1: He goes on to say, based upon the facts of 269 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 1: this case and the individual characteristics of mister Kachu, we 270 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 1: determined that we would not likely prevail in a transfer 271 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 1: hearing because we could not prove that he would not 272 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: have benefited from juvenile resources at the time of the 273 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 1: original offense. Okay, that, at best is a misstatement of 274 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 1: the law, and at worst, some might call it dissembling. 275 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,640 Speaker 1: I was the assigned DA on the transfer hearing. I 276 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 1: was fully prepared to go forward prove up the two 277 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 1: fifteen murder in juvenile court. And I know it's a 278 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 1: little bit into the weeds, but the court considers five factors. 279 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:28,239 Speaker 1: They don't just consider whether or not he would be 280 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:32,360 Speaker 1: amenable to juvenile programs at the time of the original murder. 281 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 1: They consider the criminal sophistication of the crime. The court 282 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 1: considers whether or not he can be rehabilitated in the 283 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 1: juvenile justice system. The court looks at his prior delinquent history. 284 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 1: The court looks at any prior efforts to rehabilitate him. 285 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 1: And finally, the court looks at the gravity and circumstances 286 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,919 Speaker 1: of the effect the event. The event being the two 287 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,119 Speaker 1: fifteen murder, and as I was and said, that's a 288 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,680 Speaker 1: pretty heinous murder. And when the court looks at all 289 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 1: those factors, I have no doubt that he would have 290 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,919 Speaker 1: been returned to the adult court after I put on 291 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:14,159 Speaker 1: all the evidence, and his sentence of fifty to life 292 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 1: would have been reinstituted. Well, after sitting with you for 293 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 1: half an hour, I have no doubt that you would 294 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 1: have convinced the judge put him away for like a 295 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:27,760 Speaker 1: thousand light years. I don't think he would he would 296 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:30,520 Speaker 1: come out. Did I make one final point? Yes, if 297 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 1: we fly on up to Withe hundred thousand feet and 298 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 1: looked down. Elissa Blair appeared on at least eight juvenile 299 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 1: murder cases. Two of those eight remained in custody because 300 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:49,159 Speaker 1: they committed further crimes in custody. Six were released. Six 301 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,400 Speaker 1: murderers were released. Of the six that have been released, 302 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 1: three have been rearrested. Victor Bibiano for murder in San 303 00:18:56,359 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 1: Fernando just a few weeks back, Jose Serlano for felon 304 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:03,560 Speaker 1: in possession of a firearm, also a murderer, and now 305 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:07,720 Speaker 1: Andrew Kuchu for all the charges you've previously outlined. So 306 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 1: mister Descon likes to point to the data and science 307 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 1: and that the juvenile brains aren't formed when they're seventeen 308 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 1: years old, and therefore they must be given every opportunity 309 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:23,880 Speaker 1: to be rehabilitated. Well, how's the events of a couple 310 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: of days ago for rehabilitation, mister George Gascone.

There was a police chase drug possession. 339 00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 1: The only Gascone can saves not at least nobody was 340 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,439 Speaker 1: hurt in this arrest. We're just said he didn't get 341 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,639 Speaker 1: the help. Eat it now, Gascon really is a case. 342 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:14,159 Speaker 1: These are the people he's unleashing on. It was really sick. 343 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 1: I mean, there's people actually getting murdered. There's all kinds 344 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:20,760 Speaker 1: of mayhem going on. Two Monty police officer, the two 345 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 1: Monti police officers murdered because George Gascon's illegal policies. And 346 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:28,120 Speaker 1: who I thought of this Tubs character? Yeah, because even 347 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:31,399 Speaker 1: though even though Gascon came late to the case, but 348 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 1: clearly he didn't want to do anything with Tubs. And 349 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 1: this is the person who claims that he's Hannah Tubs. 350 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:40,920 Speaker 1: It's a transgender case. But this is a child molester 351 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:45,239 Speaker 1: who's now being charged on murder in current County. All right, 352 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 1: so you think about it, it's another person that Gascone says, 353 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 1: you know, they were young, Let's give them the benefit. 354 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 1: Let's see if they can't be changed. The brain is 355 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 1: not fully formed till the twenty five. Well this one 356 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 1: turned into a murderer. How do you like that? Yeah? No, 357 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,639 Speaker 1: maybe he's charged with murder. He's no. Gascon is a 358 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 1: sick f you know what I mean? He is, This 359 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 1: is this is this era is going to be looked at. 360 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 1: But people hears from now and people are going to 361 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 1: look back in shock. It's like, what the hell was happening? Everything? 362 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 1: We're even hearing matter all the cases. I don't think 363 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: we are, no, because not everything is getting getting reported 364 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 1: because so many, so many in the media agree with 365 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 1: Gascon's policies. Gascon, of course, does not want to charge 366 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 1: enhancements like gang membership gun guns. So what's probably happening, 367 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 1: since he's been DA for a year and a half now, 368 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 1: is that people are running through the system without the enhancements, 369 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 1: are getting shorter prison terms. They're probably had their community 370 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 1: more crimes because they didn't kill two cops. We're not 371 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:44,800 Speaker 1: getting a lot of focus on, but it's happening. Tell 372 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:46,879 Speaker 1: me how you could be angry at the number of 373 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 1: guns we have and be against charging gun enhancements. Yeah, 374 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 1: together that that is so blatantly inconsistent. It's so random. 375 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 1: They're they're set up, and he keeps putting out these 376 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 1: stupid press releases. We've got to stuff the ghost guns. Yet, 377 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 1: you and he get a guy that's possessing a guy 378 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:07,680 Speaker 1: that's got a strike on his record. He's a felon 379 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: about you're gonna say no, no gun enhancement, all right? 380 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:15,359 Speaker 1: He wants MasterCard and Visa American Express not to process 381 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 1: ghost gun purchase. The the implement right because you've got 382 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,640 Speaker 1: to order the parts from various companies. But when he's 383 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:26,640 Speaker 1: presented with somebody who used the ghost gun in a murder, 384 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 1: he doesn't want to charge the gun enhancement. He does not. 385 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 1: He wants a credit card companies to block the sale, 386 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 1: but after the murder happened, he doesn't want to punish 387 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:40,120 Speaker 1: the criminal for using the gun. All right, I ampletely 388 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,919 Speaker 1: makes no sense. And when you pick up a felon 389 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:46,440 Speaker 1: and the eel monkey police officer killed two cops. Obviously 390 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 1: he had a strike on his record. He was holding 391 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 1: a gun. But to Gascone, that's no big deal. Oh yeah, 392 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 1: I'm sure he's changed. He didn't hurt anybody, did he? 393 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 1: How can we predict this man would be violent? It's 394 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:00,880 Speaker 1: the most And then he puts up pressure releases, puts 395 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 1: out press releases, saying with with Andrew Kachu, We're disappointed 396 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:08,359 Speaker 1: Kachu has not availed himself of the support he needs. 397 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 1: As Ed Wiley pointed out, the deputy Da Katchu was 398 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 1: never ordered to go seek any treatment, any rehabilitation. He wasn't. 399 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,680 Speaker 1: He was just let go. What do you mean he didn't? 400 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: So the gang member with the big D tattooed on 401 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,920 Speaker 1: his neck in honor of the gang, is going to 402 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 1: go seek out some kind of therapy. Well you, how 403 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:40,960 Speaker 1: out of your mind can you be? That's what he 404 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 1: puts in his press release. And he's got this nutty 405 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 1: radical woman that was a public definitive. All this a Blair. Yeah, 406 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 1: who's taken over these cases and unleasing these people on us. 407 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 1: She wants she wants to burn it all down. That's 408 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 1: what she wrote after the George Floyd situation. It's burn 409 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 1: it all down. She an extreme radical like they used 410 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 1: to have in the nineteen seventies, like like the group's 411 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 1: chests Aboutin's parents were involved in. That's who's running the 412 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 1: DA's office. Yeah right, I'm fine with them being public defenders. 413 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 1: They can do all that all day long if they want. 414 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:18,120 Speaker 1: But they're taking over the prosecutor's offices. How it's a cool, 415 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 1: freaking upside down as that No wonder Ed was just 416 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 1: so passionate, you could tell that all of this is 417 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:27,360 Speaker 1: ways and these these deputy DA's minds, they they've done 418 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: this work for years. They try real hard to put 419 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 1: the bad guys, the evil guys away, and they got 420 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: gascon now and and and then Deputy Public defenders who 421 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:37,640 Speaker 1: they have a deputy DA we had in John Lewin. 422 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 1: Was that his name, John Lewin. Yeah, he looked the 423 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 1: same way too, the two of them, And yeah, and 424 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:46,479 Speaker 1: both of them, this has been their life's work. No, no, 425 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 1: it looks it looks like their heads are gonna Listen 426 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 1: to Steve Cooley too. I mean, we had him on 427 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:51,639 Speaker 1: the phone, but I can hear it his voice. He's like, 428 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 1: he told him we've gone down some weird rabbit hole. 429 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 1: I can't believe the stories that are coming out. No, 430 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 1: I know, it's it's some sort of reverse universe we're 431 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 1: all living in now, but it's real. And people were drying. Yeah, 432 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 1: this guy, at least when he was running from the police, 433 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 1: didn't kill anybody. But it's pisses me off. Is the 434 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,679 Speaker 1: public voted for a lot of this crap. They voted 435 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 1: for Gascon, They voted for Prop forty seven and fifty seven, 436 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,440 Speaker 1: and Gascon will be like, well, these are just exceptions. 437 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 1: People will go wrong, and Gascon rope Prop forty seven 438 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 1: and people willingly voted because they weren't paying any attention 439 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:29,200 Speaker 1: and they were misled by all the lies of everyone 440 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:32,199 Speaker 1: in power, and they state, I keep thinking back to 441 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:36,440 Speaker 1: the Milwaukee DA that's in Wisconsin, who's just like Gascon. 442 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:38,960 Speaker 1: At least he admitted people will die because of my 443 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:40,880 Speaker 1: policies and I can live with that, which is hard 444 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:42,440 Speaker 1: to believe, but he said that. I know, I know 445 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 1: he understands people will die. Yeah, because he's thinking, oh, 446 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 1: if I go light with ten guys and one of 447 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 1: them may kill somebody, but the other nine, you know, 448 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 1: I did the right thing. I think that's the logic here. 449 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 1: That's scary. We can't afford that. And two police officers died. 450 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 1: I think the death toll from Gascon at least up 451 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 1: to three or four people that have died. Let me 452 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 1: tell you, probably sixty five seventy percent of this state 453 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:10,399 Speaker 1: is going to vote for the man who introduced George 454 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:14,960 Speaker 1: Gascone to a District Attorney's office, and that's Gavin Newsom. 455 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom agrees with everything Gascon does, and he gave 456 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:21,120 Speaker 1: Gascone his start as a DA up in San Francisco. 457 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 1: He appointed him, so you know you're gonna see he's 458 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 1: gonna win like three to one as governor. But everybody's 459 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:30,440 Speaker 1: going to be lamenting all the terrible crime and they're 460 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:33,119 Speaker 1: going to vote for that whack job Attorney General Rob Banta, 461 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 1: who's another gascone friend. They're all the same person, they 462 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 1: all believe in the same thing. No, you're not big 463 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:42,199 Speaker 1: on prayer, but we hope come in the middle of 464 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:45,120 Speaker 1: August we do have a recall that qualifies for the ballot, 465 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 1: because that's about the only way we can fight back. 466 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:50,440 Speaker 1: Right now, John and Ken show, all right, the big 467 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:54,040 Speaker 1: story this morning is that old Joe Biden has gotten COVID. 468 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:59,159 Speaker 1: Many believe probably his trip to the Middle East, Israel, 469 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,639 Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia, Saudi's gave it to him. That's John's theory 470 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:06,920 Speaker 1: that he was passed. He's been He said he wanted 471 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:11,120 Speaker 1: to turn them into parias for murdering that journalist. Did 472 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 1: he say that or oh yeah, oh he said that. 473 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 1: You remember that that guy Kashagi who got to murder 474 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,159 Speaker 1: oh the journalists, right, But I think Biden said, I 475 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,359 Speaker 1: only spoke to the to the prince privately. Well some 476 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,720 Speaker 1: months ago he said they should be parias, and then 477 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 1: he changed his mind and started sucking up to try 478 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:32,160 Speaker 1: to get them to drill for more or produce more oil. Yeah, well, 479 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:33,880 Speaker 1: maybe this is the beginning of the end and he's 480 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 1: not going to end up running. There's a poll that 481 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 1: came out from Quinnipiac University. His support among Hispanics is 482 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 1: just nineteen percent. That is not good for a Democrat. 483 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 1: Can you imagine this could foretell something big happening in 484 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 1: the American electorate if suddenly Latinos turning away from the 485 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: standard Democratic vote that they usually are. And this is 486 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 1: after he let two million immigrants over the border. Yeah, 487 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 1: you would think that would help the cause, or maybe 488 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 1: not for people who are here already. And that's why 489 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 1: help my lot in life. It's what I always said. 490 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 1: They don't want new workers coming over the border to 491 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 1: undercut their wages. That's not a good thing if you're 492 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 1: a working class Hispanic laborer is to have newer guys, 493 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 1: younger guys willing to work much cheaper. The poll also found, 494 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 1: and this is everybody who was questioned, seventy one percent 495 00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 1: don't want him to seek reelection Democrats only forty percent 496 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 1: I think he should run again.
