Seriously, this is how this woman intends to deal with some hardened criminals and gang bangers? I know that kids make mistakes — I have seen it in my own family. But many of these 16 and 17 year-olds are in need of some long-term time behind bars — and there are plenty of statistics to prove it.

This is nothing more that the statewide version of the progressive DAs — think Boudin and Gascon.
