Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon dropped charges against an election software company’s CEO despite strong evidence of wrongdoing because he was worried about politics, according to a prosecutor who works in Mr. Gascon’s office.

Eric Neff, the prosecutor, who was helping with the case against Konnech CEO Eugene Yu, alleges in a new tort claim that the charges were dropped in 2022 because Mr. Gascon, a Democrat, became concerned after receiving praise from former President Donald Trump.
