Jonathan Hatami announces bid to unseat LA DA George Gascon.

Jonathan Hatami, a Los Angeles deputy district attorney known for convicting child killers, has announced his campaign challenge against his boss, George Gascon, who has been accused of soft-on-crime policies that protect criminals and not the public. Hatami promised to roll back dozens of directives initiated by Gascon that critics have cited as coddling criminals and putting crime victims last. If elected, he would charge underage offenders as adults and allow prosecutors to attend parole hearings. Hatami is the latest challenger to Gascon from within the DA's own office.
