John,

Fifteen of San Francisco's brightest attorneys were fired by the HORRIBLE
new DA Brooke Jenkins — the leader of the recall campaign who was just
appointed by Mayor London Breed.

Right away Brooke began firing ANYBODY in the office who was there to hold
police accountable, free innocent people, or even hold the Mayor’s own
family accountable. ⁣

Brooke literally fired the staff that prosecuted the Mayor’s brother for
killing someone. ⁣

I’m furious because these aren’t Republicans but sellout Democrats that
are making decisions that will set back meaningful reforms in San
Francisco for generations.

This is NOT about safety. Not at all.

This is what happens when we can't protect our progressive DAs — and
conservative mega-donors are already targeting our leaders like Larry
Krasner in Philadelphia and George Gascón in Los Angeles.



[ [link removed] ]We need to act IMMEDIATELY and put up the defenses before they even
have a chance to set up the kind of campaign they did in San Francisco.
Please, I’m begging you, make a donation right now to our DA Defense Fund
so we can protect our pro-choice and pro-justice DAs.

I want you to see some of the names and work that DA Brooke Jenkins
SACKED. These were staff members and attorneys, dedicated folks helping
the people of San Francisco:

* Kate Chatfield, Chief of Staff
* Rachel Marshall, Communications Director
* Arcella Hurtado, Head of the Post-conviction Review Unit who also
worked on the Innocence Commission. She was also the highest ranking
Latina and LGBTQ+ member of the office
* Lateef Grey and Rebecca Young from the Independent Investigations
Bureau who held police and other public officials accountable
* Kasie Lee, the first Cantonese-speaking assistant DA and head of
Victim Services
* Dana Dru and Stephanie Lacambra, who were in the Post-conviction Unit
and helped release 70 people who were in prison for decades and showed
growth and rehabilitation
* Seth Meisels, who oversaw the investigation into fencing operations
responsible for many car break-ins and fought to protect the rights of
women seeking abortions and their doctors
* Tal Klement, the Assistant Chief of General Crimes who fought for the
rights of victims and the disabled. He and Seth sounded the alarm when
they found out that SFPD illegally used the DNA of rape victims
* Renowned data scientists including Mikaela Rabinowitz, who was the
Director of Data, Analytics and Research and Dylan Yep, who was
working to fight racial disparities in the system
* Ryan Khotjasteh, who fought to preserve juvenile justice reforms so
that kids aren’t charged as adults

Let me be clear: There were UNJUST terminations.

It’s disgusting and one of the single most shameful things I’ve seen in my
life as a leader.

When London Breed appointed Brooke Jenkins to be the new DA, they didn’t
have to do all of this. 

They are DESTROYING all reform and firing GOOD people for no reason. 

Conservative billionaires and the police union made this possible by
spending MILLIONS to get Chesa’s recall on the ballot and spread lies to
voters all across San Francisco.

We need to make sure this never happens again and the only way to do that
is by working NOW to protect our DAs and the incredible folks they bring
into their office to work towards reform. 

[ [link removed] ]Chip in to our DA Defense fund now to make sure we have the resources
to fight back and defend our DAs.

Love and appreciate you,

Shaun
