"Crime trends aren't a consolation to victims, but Contra Costa County crime data show violent crime is lower since Becton has been in office."
"Becton was a well-respected judge in Contra Costa County Superior Court for over 20 years before becoming DA. Her balanced approach has cracked down on violent offenders."
The letter to the editor defends District Attorney Diana Becton against a recall campaign, arguing that crime has decreased during her tenure. The author highlights Becton's experience as a long-serving judge and praises her balanced approach in addressing violent crime, gang activities, and retail theft while promoting initiatives for at-risk youth. The letter urges residents to oppose the recall, noting the $8.5 million cost to taxpayers in a time of reduced federal funding for essential services.
