The article highlights a troubling instance of alleged misconduct by District Attorney Brook Jenkins, who admitted to improperly accessing confidential law enforcement data and leaking it to the press. This incident is juxtaposed against the outrage that would ensue if a progressive leader like Chesa Boudin had committed similar actions, raising questions about accountability in the criminal justice system. Despite Jenkins' actions being a potential crime, which include accessing confidential records illegally, there appears to be little to no repercussions, highlighting a perceived double standard in how such matters are handled based on political affiliations.
So what happens when District Attorney Brook Jenkins does it? Nothing.
In this case, Jenkins had given her resignation notice but was still working in the DA's Office under Boudin.
That's a firing offense, even to look at those records if you aren't involved in a case is forbidden.
Improperly accessing confidential criminal justice records is a crime.
