OAKLAND, Calif.—After Alameda County District Attorney Pamela Price—whose jurisdiction includes Oakland—failed to use state prosecutors made available by California Gov. Gavin Newsom since February, the governor rescinded his offer on July 10 and redeployed the attorneys back to the state’s Department of Justice.
“It was clear to me that there wasn’t a sincere commitment to follow through on the offer,” Mr. Newsom said in response to a question from The Epoch Times at a July 11 press conference held in the city’s downtown area at a tow yard where recovered stolen vehicles are stored.
