A California teen convicted of plowing a car into a mother and her 8-month-old son will spend just five months behind bars thanks to Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon, according to the woman who survived the crash.

Despite shocking surveillance video of the Aug. 6, 2021 incident, numerous eyewitnesses and initial felony charges, the teen will serve his sentence at a "juvenile probation camp," an alternative sentence less severe than juvenile detention.

According to police sources, the driver, 16 at the time of the crime, initially told investigators the victim popped up out of nowhere, and he struck her by accident.

Multiple videos show the car veering directly at the mother and child while speeding the wrong way down a narrow backstreet with no sidewalks. After mowing them down, the driver attempts to drive away, only to be stopped by another driver who rams the stolen sedan with a pickup truck.

It is incidents like this and the Hannah Tubbs sentencing that are driving the recall, honestly I can't defend either one. I'm not posting the video in this thread because it could bother some people.

1. And of course the little bastard being a juvenile

He'll have no record when he turns 18.

So much for background checks.
It's an area that needs to be addressed.

My goodness!

4. What a garbage article ... all the links are to Faux Newz stories

And then there's nonsensical shit like this:

Another example involves a 26-year-old child molester, who received a sentence of just six months in a juvenile facility for girls after claiming to identify as female following an arrest eight years after the crime.

Some of you may know the story but I don't, and this is just gibberish if you aren't familiar. Makes NO sense.

5. I live in Los Angeles County, and I see these anti-Gascon folks all the time

I know my evidence is purely anecdotal but they all seem to be absolute bat shit crazy MAGAts, I’ve tried asking them what their issue is and just get incoherent babbling.
They also want to recall various lower level politicians in the various towns, all of whom seem to be Democrats.
