Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva blasted leftist Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón, snapping, “He brought down his 10 Commandments, the tablets from the mountain, his special directives, and expects the entire world to go with it, somehow it’s going to work. Well, it’s not working.” He added that he had only spoken to Gascón once since Gascón was sworn in as DA last December, adding, “We want him to be successful, but it can’t come at the expense of public safety and at the expense of victims of crime. That’s where I have to draw that firm line in the sand.”
Fox 11’s Bill Melugin, speaking of possible imminent rioting after the verdict is delivered in the case of Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin in the death of George Floyd, asked Villanueva, “What are your marching orders going to be to your deputies out there on the street? You indicated on Monday that you’re concerned about how our new District Attorney might or might not prosecute looting, vandalism, that sort of a thing. What are you telling your street deputies, if they do make an arrest, are you worried there might not be a prosecutorial fist behind it?”
