“He just like looked at me with some pretty hateful eyes,” said Glass, who thought the man was about to hit the car she was standing near. Instead, the man flung a metal pipe that struck her in the face. Stitches were required to close the wound over her eye, she said. Bystanders came and held the man down until police arrived at the intersection of South Olive and West 8th streets and took him into custody. Glass said she had no previous interaction with the man and warned others to be ready for anything when out in public. “There’s...

Representatives for George Soros no longer want to be associated with disgraced prosecutor Chesa Boudin now that he's been rebuked by the liberal voters of San Francisco, the Washington Free Beacon has learned. Hours after Boudin was recalled by double-digits on Tuesday, representatives for the liberal billionaire contacted the Free Beacon to reject its characterization of Boudin as a "George Soros darling." The Soros representatives from public relations firm BerlinRosen say he never contributed to Boudin, and that it is wrong to label Boudin a "Soros prosecutor." "We disagree with any analysis that labels any prosecutor as a ‘Soros prosecutor'—each...

A teen who plowed over a mother and her 8-month-old infant was sentenced to “juvenile probation camp” thanks to Marxist Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon. Venice, California – In August 2021, a driver, who was 16 at the time, plowed over a mother and her infant. The mother, identified as “Rachel,” was pushing her infant in a stroller down an alleyway when the teen sped up in a stolen vehicle and ran over her. “I thought those were the last moments of our lives; we were dead,” the mother, who asked to be identified only as Rachel, wrote in...

"I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."Justice in a free country is an important concept. Around the globe, there are countries that still carry-on atrocities to this day – China being one of them with Uyghur concentration camps – and there is no punishment brought down on the ones responsible. In America, when we think about justice, we think about an individual who commits a crime and is later arrested by the authorities. Eventually, they go...

A transgender woman who bragged about her light sentence on a kiddie-molestation rap has now been charged with murder in connection with a 2019 robbery, authorities said Tuesday. Hannah Tubbs, 26, hit the headlines in January when she pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl in the bathroom of a Palmdale, Calif., Denny’s in 2014 when she was 17. A judge in the case said he was compelled to sentence Tubbs to two years at a youth treatment facility because Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón declined to move the case out of the juvenile court where it...

LA's woke DA George Gascon will not pursue felony charges against the attacker who stormed Dave Chappelle's Hollywood Bowl concert with a bayonet, reducing the charges to misdemeanor instead. Isaiah Lee, 23, ran on stage at the show on Wednesday yielding the knife that was hidden inside a gun. Chappelle, 48, was able to sidestep him and was unharmed. The attacker was then arrested at the scene, and taken to hospital with a broken arm. There were immediate questions over security at the event and how the man could have smuggled in the weapon. But Gascon's office - which is...

Santa Monica police arrested the man suspected of assaulting or harassing three letter carriers in a three-month period - but he is back on the street because authorities say his crimes aren't enough to keep him behind bars. Residents of the 1300 block of 14th Street haven't gotten their mail for half a week because of three attacks by Davon Ray Morgan, 38, on postal workers since January, according to the United States Postal Service. 'Delivery is temp suspended; this is an unusual, but a necessary step to protect our employees,' USPS spokeswoman Natasha Garvin tweeted on Monday. **SNIP** Jim...

On Tuesday, an overwhelming 97.9 percent of the prosecutors in the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office union (ADDA) voted YES to endorse the recall of Soros-funded L.A. District Attorney George Gascón. These people are “front-line prosecutors tasked with implementing George Gascón’s policies,” ADDA noted in a press release about the vote. The vote occurred after more than 30 cities within the County of Los Angeles issued votes of no confidence in the District Attorney amid a skyrocketing crime wave in the city. L.A.-based Fox News reporter Bill Melugin reported on Twitter that the union had a record turnout rate...

Embattled Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón's staffers say he was shamed into changing his stance on 'outlier' juvenile sentencing because of a bombshell report that suggested one of the criminals he advocated for had little remorse. He flip-flopped on his famously reformative approach to justice last week after jailhouse audio recordings obtained by Fox News captured transgender pedophile Hannah Tubbs bragging about her light sentence in a juvenile facility. Tubbs was sentenced to two years in jail for molesting a 10-year-old girl inside a restaurant bathroom. After the top prosecutor became aware of troubling comments Tubbs made in...

A transgender woman who admitted to choking and sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl in a bathroom stall reportedly laughed at the light sentence she received. When the incident occurred, Tubbs was a 17-year-old male two weeks shy of his 18th birthday called James. Tubbs only began identifying as a female after being arrested for assault eight years later.

Has Bill Melugin at Fox News has lost his marbles? While reporting on a gruesome story in which child rapist James Tubbs (who calls himself “Hannah”) has been caught on tape bragging about the light sentence he got after sexually assaulting a ten-year-old in a bathroom, Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin went out of his way to call Tubbs “she” and “her” multiple times on America’s Newsroom. It’s not only wrong but confusing to the audience. Why would Fox News join the woke gender bullies who demand that everyone gets their preferred pronouns no matter what our eyes tell us...

Hollywood Democratic heavyweights have thrown their weight behind a campaign to recall the 'woke' district attorney of Los Angeles, with Joe Biden's nominee to be ambassador to Norway and George Clooney's producing partner among those demanding George Gascon step down. Gascon, a 67-year-old former assistant chief of Los Angeles Police Department, took over as district attorney in the heavily-Democrat city in December 2020 and immediately embarked on a progressive justice reform agenda - eliminating the use of sentencing enhancements for gang membership, certain uses of guns, and for prior convictions. As LA battles rising crime, critics are blaming Gascon's 'soft'...

Los Angeles County's top prosecutor called Tuesday on three credit card companies to stop online payments for the purchase of kits to make untraceable "ghost guns." "American Express, Mastercard and Visa have the ability to go beyond what any law enforcement agency, legislature or city council can accomplish," District Attorney George Gascón said in a written statement. "We are asking these companies to join us in stemming the flow of ghost guns into our communities by preventing a ghost gun kit from being sold with a few mere clicks on a smartphone or computer." So-called ghost guns are typically assembled...

After getting arrested for sexually molesting children is a good time to declare yourself transsexual — and make sure to do it in a jurisdiction run by liberals. Just ask James “Hannah” Tubbs: A Los Angeles County judge on Thursday ordered Hannah Tubbs, a transgender California woman, to serve two years in a juvenile facility after [he] pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl in 2014. Two years in juvie is pretty mild for molesting a 10-year-old — especially when a guy gets to serve it in a female facility. Before doing so, the judge criticized far-left District Attorney...

A group of bold thieves, two of whom didn't even bother covering their faces, were caught on camera filling trash bags with cosmetics at an Ulta Beauty salon in Los Angeles County as a security alarm blared and fed-up shoppers groaned. 'When are people gonna say enough?' an exasperated bystander can be heard saying as the group of at least six shoplifters fled the store and piled into a white Dodge Challenger in the parking lot of the Azalea shopping center in South Gate. A witness to Thursday's Ulta robbery said the thieves 'knew exactly what they were doing.' 'They...

LOS ANGELES - It happened on New Year’s Day 2014. James Tubbs walked into a woman’s restroom at Denny’s in Palmdale and hid in a stall. When a 10-year-old girl walked in by herself, he grabbed her and sexually molested her. "The assault went on until someone walked into the restroom and scared him off. He fled from the restaurant, and he went unidentified for several years until a cold DNA hit identified him as someone who was arrested in the state of Idaho," said LA County Deputy District Attorney John McKinney. During his time on the run, McKinney says...

Joseph Iniguez, the chief of staff for Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón, allegedly threatened to place a policeman on a list of dishonest officers after the staffer’s fiancée was stopped Dec. 11 for an illegal U-turn in her Tesla. The UK Daily Mail reports: Iniguez, according to a prosecutor, called the officer a ‘f—up’ and said he’d ‘put him in the Brady system,’ the outlet reported. The Brady list, established by a 1963 Supreme Court ruling, adds officers who have a record of knowingly lying in a professional capacity to said list. If an officer gets put on...

Kiddie criminals in Los Angeles accused of serious crimes are set to get a pass under new rules from District Attorney George Gascon. The Los Angeles County District Attorney will expand its “restorative justice” diversion programs for youths to include those facing charges like burglary, arson, robber and even sexual battery, among other crimes, according to a leaked memo from the DA’s office. Diversion programs are a form of pre-trial intervention which allows alleged juveniles to avoid prosecution, conviction — and serious jail time — in favor of more rehabilitative approaches. The DA’s office launched a pilot for the Restorative...

Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascón is expanding a program to drop criminal proceedings against juveniles charged with a range of felonies, according to a leaked memo. The Restorative Enhanced Diversion for Youth (REDY) program was launched as a pilot basis last month, and Gascón is expanding it to cover a range of felony charges, according to the memo obtained by KTTV reporter Bill Melugin. Under the expansion, youth would be eligible for 'diversion' after being charged with burglary, assault, vehicle theft, robbery, grand theft person, sexual battery, and arson, according to the memo.
