A woman emotional over her domestic violence case urged the judge for trial, highlighting the deep impact and desire for justice among victims.
Anastacio White expressed his outrage towards the dismissals, stating, 'It could be a bank robber, rapist, child molester, no matter what, you're just dismissed. That's not right.'
The court's application of the Mendoza ruling means cases past their trial deadlines, including severe crimes, face potential dismissal, compromising accountability for victims.
District Attorney Brooke Jenkins acknowledged the failures of the system regarding victim justice, assuring ongoing efforts for cases not affected by the Mendoza ruling.
