Former L.A. D.A.’s Husband Who Pulled A Gun On A BLM Leader Requests Diversion To Avoid Jail

The Los Angeles Times reports, “the husband of former Los Angeles County Dist. Atty. Jackie Lacey is seeking entry into a diversion program that would allow him to avoid jail time after he was caught on video pointing a gun at protesters last year, according to an attorney for one of the protesters.”
