** L.A.’s Pro-Crime DA Gascon Challenged by Child Murder Prosecutor
------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------
Jonathan Hatami, the Los Angeles deputy district attorney known for convicting child killers in high-profile cases, including those of Gabriel Fernandez and Anthony Avalos, announced on Wednesday ([link removed]) a campaign challenge against his boss, George Gascon ([link removed]) .
Gascon, a controversial progressive Democrat who has been accused of soft-on-crime policies that protect criminals and not the public, has faced sharp criticism from his own office and is involved in several lawsuits against his own deputies, including more than a dozen for allegations of unlawful retaliation.
“Because of George, L.A. is the hate crime capital of America,” Hatami said at a rally in the Los Angeles suburb of Whittier, where he initially pledged to stand up to Gascon two years ago. “Fentanyl deaths are skyrocketing ([link removed]) and killing our children, crime on public transportation has dramatically increased, and gun violence in our streets has affected so many of the most vulnerable in our communities. These aren’t just statistics – they are real people!”
Hatami gained prominence in 2017 as the lead prosecutor in the Gabriel Fernandez case – an 8-year-old boy who was abused and murdered by his own parents. And earlier this month, he secured convictions against 10-year-old Anthony Avalos’ mother and her boyfriend ([link removed]) , who had tortured and killed him in 2018.
If elected, he promised to roll back dozens of directives initiated by Gascon that critics have cited as coddling criminals and putting crime victims last.
“The victims feel like they’re abandoned,” Hatami told Fox News Digital. “They feel like George Gascon cares more about the criminal… and his actions say that.”
He made his campaign announcement flanked by the parents of crime victims and families who have lost loved ones to what he called “fentanyl poisoning and street takeovers,” as well as the relatives of fallen police officers.

** Gascón’s Insensitivity to the Mother of a Murder Victim
------------------------------------------------------------
When Gascón made an appearance ([link removed]) in Pomona, California on December 18, 2020, the family of the late Joshua Rodriguez, a 21-year-old Californian who had been murdered in 2015, confronted ([link removed]) Gascón to protest his intention to eliminate any chance that the young man’s killers could receive no-parole life sentences in prison. When Rodriguez’s mother shouted at Gascón, the latter said: “It’s unfortunate that we have people who do not have enough education so they can keep their mouth shut for a moment so we can talk.” In response, the mother said: “My son can never speak again because he was murdered — kidnapped, tortured, and murdered. My son matters.” “They killed my son, tortured him!” the woman screamed as Gascón subsequently walked away.
“And what are you gonna do about it? Nothing!”
