Praise for a Prosecutor
No, you didn't misread the title of this post. We are praising newly elected San Francisco District Attorney Kamala Harris who was sworn in today. From her remarks to the people of San Francisco:
We also need to reject simplistic, reactive public policies. It takes more than building prisons and locking away prisoners to keep our city safe. As district attorney, I will not use three-strikes enhancements unless the third strike is a violent or serious felony; nor will I ever ask for the death penalty. (emphasis our's.)
