BREAKING: Former LA County District Attorney Jackey Lacey Endorses Nathan Hochman for DA

Nathan Hochman has been endorsed by two prior LA County District Attorneys!

The momentum is building for him to remove George Gascon.

YES!

FIRE GASCON!

Dear Friend,

Jackie Lacey, the first woman and first African-American to serve as District Attorney of Los Angeles County, announced today that she is endorsing Nathan Hochman for District Attorney. 

Lacey made the announcement outside of her childhood home in South Los Angeles, the location where her father was shot and wounded many years ago – an incident that inspired her to pursue a career in criminal justice.

She said D.A. George Gascon has emboldened criminals and caused an increase in crime by failing to properly enforce the law.  

“We must have leadership at the District Attorney’s Office that understands its mission is to seek justice by, among other things, sending a message that criminal behavior is unacceptable in our county. We don’t have that with the current District Attorney,” Lacey said. “Criminals are more brazen because they know they have allies embedded in that office. They know the office policies better than we do. It is time to elect someone who will be proactive at making us safer.”
Lacey, a lifelong Democrat who served as Los Angeles County District Attorney from 2012 to 2020, said she supports Hochman because of his decades of criminal justice experience, as both a prosecutor and defense attorney, and the fact that he will strive every day to improve public safety.

“I am endorsing Nathan Hochman for District Attorney because I feel a lot less safe than I did four years ago,” Lacey said. “It’s time to thank and excuse the current district attorney and elect someone with a conscience. Please join me and vote for Nathan Hochman for District Attorney.”

Lacey is just the latest in a growing list of prominent Democratic leaders who have rejected Gascon and called on Angelenos to unite behind Hochman. Last month, he received endorsements from former Democratic D.A. candidates John McKinney and Maria Ramirez as well as Rory and Max Kennedy (daughter and son of the late Senator Robert F. Kennedy). Nathan is building the broad, bi-partisan coalition that is needed to defeat Gascon this November.
