New Los Angeles DA announces end to cash bail, the death penalty and trying children as adults
So even as the police are neutered, now the Prosecutors will create situation where bad guys with no money and no incentive to behave are returned to the Street. He will also ignore the will of the people and end the DP on his own. Finally, now 17 year old gang bangers will get a free pass via the juvenile court system no matter how bad their crime.
He is also going to scour police records and try to set up some cops for falls via retroactive accusations of misbehavior.

Gascón defeated 8-year incumbent Jackie Lacey. As he assumed the head of the largest prosecutor's office in the nation Monday, he said his new agenda for Los Angeles -- which includes ending cash bail for certain minor offenses, the death penalty and the practice of charging juveniles as adults -- will differ from his predecessor's in order to better prevent crime, reduce recidivism, and restore victims.
