California: New attempt on Los Angeles District Attorney recall

The murder of Jacqueline Avant, the wife of a famed music executive, by a parolee, seems to have helped give a push to a new effort to a recall of Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascon. Gascon has faced recall efforts led by victims' rights groups and others over Gascon's criminal justice reform plans, including freeing bail; ending cash bail and other efforts. A previous effort failed to get 579,062 signatures.
