George Gascon emphasized that correcting the injustices of the past concerning long prison sentences is a key focus of his tenure as a progressive prosecutor.
At a press conference, Gascon announced his intention to ask for a resentencing of Lyle and Erik Menendez, challenging previous life sentences without parole.
Gascon's re-election campaign is fraught with challenges, as he faces criticism from voters who support more punitive measures against crime in Los Angeles.
This move to potentially free the Menendez brothers, who gained national attention in their infamous trial, marks a significant moment in Gascon's prosecutorial legacy.
