Podcast appearances and mentions of george gasc

(March 26, 2025)Chris Merril is in for Bill while he is out on vacation.  Dist. Atty. Nathan Hochman will allow prosecutors to seek the death penalty again in Los Angeles, undoing one of the signature policies of his predecessor, George Gascón. Four Southern states rank in the top five nationally for their dependence on federal dollars, according to a new report. And a very northern state, Alaska, is the most “federally dependent” in the union, according to WalletHub. Southern states rank second through fifth: Kentucky, West Virginia, Mississippi and South Carolina. Amid President Trump's push to take over the world's largest island, the administration says it is sending the vice president to visit a military base there. Billions of dollars are potentially on the line for fire victims. For lawyers, their typical one-third cut of any future settlement could be enormous.

On this week's Everyday Injustice interview, Chesa Boudin, former San Francisco District Attorney and now Executive Director of the Berkeley Criminal Law and Justice Center, reflects on his experiences in office, the state of criminal justice reform, and his current work at UC Berkeley. Boudin highlights how political power matters more than individual electoral victories. He notes that during the height of the Black Lives Matter movement in 2020, corporations and politicians rushed to embrace reform, only to later pivot as the political landscape shifted. He emphasizes the importance of long-term organizing to sustain meaningful change. Discussing the reform prosecutor movement, Boudin acknowledges setbacks in California, where he, George Gascón, and Pamela Price faced significant opposition. However, he points out that nationally, many reform-minded prosecutors have remained in office, such as Larry Krasner in Philadelphia and José Garza in Texas, proving that the movement is still active. On homelessness and public safety, Boudin criticizes the criminalization of unhoused people, calling it ineffective and counterproductive. He argues that cities like San Francisco push policies that fail to address the root causes, like skyrocketing housing costs and economic inequality. Now at Berkeley Law, Boudin leads initiatives focused on policy reform, litigation, and research. He discusses a class action lawsuit against CDCR, challenging illegal deductions from the $200 “Gate Money” given to people released from prison. The case underscores systemic failures that make reentry difficult and increase recidivism. Ultimately, Boudin remains committed to reform, advocating for data-driven policies and institutional accountability while training the next generation of legal professionals at UC Berkeley.

Dr. Phil's one-on-one with incoming Los Angeles District Attorney Nathan Hochman Dr. Phil sits down with Los Angeles' new District Attorney, Nathan Hochman, a no-nonsense prosecutor with decades of experience. Known for his tough but balanced approach, Hochman is stepping into one of the most high-profile DA roles in the country. Unlike his predecessor, George Gascón, Hochman has promised a “hard middle” approach to crime—rejecting extreme policies on both ends of the spectrum. Backed by law enforcement heavyweights like Sheriff Robert Luna and LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell, Hochman isn't afraid to shake things up. He opens up about his plans to prioritize public safety, hold dangerous offenders accountable, and restore trust in the DA's office, all while steering clear of blanket policies that don't work. Dr. Phil asks him about the Menendez Brothers' future and his plans on mass deportations in his sanctuary city.

On this episode, Tony Brueski digs into the shocking postponement of the Menendez brothers' resentencing hearing, not due to legal maneuvering, but because of the devastating wildfires ravaging Los Angeles. As the city battles an inferno, newly elected District Attorney Nathan Hochman faces a trial by fire, forced to navigate a high-stakes legal drama amidst a backdrop of unprecedented chaos and destruction while simultaneously taking a hardline stance against those seeking to take advantage of the chaos through looting, arson, and insurance fraud. On this episode, Tony Brueski digs into the heart of Hochman's dilemma: Will he uphold his tough-on-crime stance and oppose resentencing for Lyle and Erik Menendez, or will he follow the path of his predecessor, George Gascón, who favored a chance at parole for the infamous brothers? Tony examines the complex layers of this case, from the horrific 1989 murders to the controversial trials and the lingering questions about justice, abuse, and the possibility of redemption, all while a city burns and a new legal chapter unfolds.

In the justice system, where legacies of decisions linger for decades, few cases have the staying power of the Menendez brothers. Convicted of murdering their parents in 1989, Lyle and Erik Menendez have spent more than three decades behind bars, with their case periodically reemerging in the public eye. Now, a new Los Angeles County District Attorney, Nathan Hochman, has taken office and is reshaping the case once again. One of Hochman's first moves was to replace two deputy prosecutors, Nancy Theberge and Brock Lunsford, who had filed a motion under former D.A. George Gascón's administration seeking to reduce the brothers' sentences. Theberge and Lunsford's motion argued that the brothers had shown substantial rehabilitation and should be resentenced to 50 years to life, which would make them eligible for parole. Hochman's decision to reassign them signals a potential shift away from Gascón's reform-oriented policies and has drawn significant attention to the direction Hochman intends to take with such high-profile cases. The January 30-31 resentencing hearing could determine the Menendez brothers' futures, but Hochman's office has not yet stated whether it will uphold or withdraw the resentencing request. Hochman's statements indicate a detailed review process, with an emphasis on examining the case files and treating each brother's case separately. Hochman's approach signals a departure from treating the Menendez brothers as a unit and instead evaluates the specifics of each individual's circumstances and actions. This perspective may allow for a more granular and balanced assessment of justice in a case that has been controversial for decades. The brothers' defense team, led by Mark Geragos, is also pursuing a habeas corpus petition based on newly emerged evidence of alleged sexual abuse by their father, Jose Menendez. The petition includes claims that Erik Menendez wrote letters detailing the abuse before the murders, as well as allegations from Roy Rosselló, a former member of the boy band Menudo, who said Jose Menendez sexually assaulted him. These revelations add another layer of complexity to the case, challenging the prosecution's original narrative that the murders were motivated solely by greed. The defense contends that these claims provide a broader context for understanding the brothers' actions, focusing on the psychological toll of prolonged abuse. Judge Michael Jesic, who postponed the resentencing hearing to allow the new administration time to review the case, acknowledged the significant volume of material involved. Hochman's office is also tasked with responding to the habeas corpus petition, a process that could influence the outcome of both the resentencing and broader legal proceedings. This decision underscores the intricate balancing act between revisiting past decisions and maintaining the integrity of the justice system. It also highlights the importance of judicial discretion in managing such a high-profile and emotionally charged case. The case has reignited public debate, with advocates for the brothers pointing to their alleged victimization and rehabilitation as grounds for leniency, while others argue that the brutal nature of the murders justifies their life sentences without parole. The Netflix series Monsters, which revisited the case, has further polarized public opinion, bringing new attention to the decades-old crime. By shedding light on the personal lives of the Menendez brothers and their upbringing, the series has sparked fresh discussions on the intersections of familial abuse, trauma, and criminal behavior. The widespread public interest underscores how deeply this case resonates with broader societal issues of power, family dynamics, and accountability. Governor Gavin Newsom's role also looms over the case, as the brothers have filed a clemency request. However, Newsom has deferred any decisions until after Hochman completes his review. This delay underscores the high stakes and intricate political dynamics surrounding the Menendez brothers' potential release. Newsom's cautious approach reflects the broader implications of granting clemency in a case that continues to polarize opinions across the political and social spectrum. The involvement of the governor further elevates the case to a state-wide platform, where its outcome could set a significant precedent for executive intervention in criminal sentencing. As the January hearing approaches, the Menendez brothers' case remains a flashpoint in discussions about justice, rehabilitation, and the evolving societal understanding of abuse and trauma. The decisions made in the coming months could not only shape the lives of Lyle and Erik Menendez but also set a precedent for how similar cases are handled in the future. The hearing promises to be a critical juncture, where the legal arguments, new evidence, and broader societal shifts converge to determine whether justice is best served by maintaining their sentences or by granting them a second chance. The Menendez brothers' journey from wealthy Beverly Hills teenagers to convicted murderers and now potential symbols of rehabilitation continues to captivate the public. It raises questions about the capacity of the justice system to adapt to new evidence and evolving perceptions of crime and punishment. Hochman's role in shaping the outcome of this case places him at the center of a legal and cultural crossroads, where each decision carries the weight of decades of debate over what justice truly means. This case, with its layers of legal complexity and emotional resonance, serves as a test of the justice system's ability to reconcile past convictions with new evidence and shifting public sentiment. In addition to the legal implications, the Menendez brothers' case also reflects broader trends in criminal justice reform. The focus on rehabilitation, the consideration of trauma, and the evolving perceptions of abuse survivors all come into play in this intricate legal drama. As society continues to grapple with questions of fairness and accountability, the case's outcome could offer insight into how the justice system may evolve to address similar cases in the future. This ongoing saga remains a profound reminder of the intersection between law, psychology, and societal change, making it one of the most compelling criminal cases of our time.

Los Angelenos tired of increased crime and rampant homelessness overwhelmingly voted out soft-on-crime, far-left district attorney George Gascón on Tuesday in favor of Nathan Hochman, a prosecutor with a more moderate approach. Hochman, a former federal prosecutor and a Republican-turned-independent, won the race with 61.5 percent of the vote to Gascón's 38.5 percent, according to Los Angeles County Registrar vote totals as of Wednesday morning. The Associated Press called the race for Hochman early Wednesday.

Why Should We Believe The Menendez Brothers Claims of Abuse? Could the Menendez brothers finally go free after decades behind bars? With LA's district attorney hinting at their possible release, this notorious case is back in the spotlight, raising questions about justice, trauma, and survival. George Gascón's recent statement adds fuel to the fire as he believes the Menendez brothers' claims of abuse by their father, Jose Menendez—claims now supported by a newly discovered letter and accusations from ex-Menudo member Roy Rosello. But is it enough? Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer dives into the details with Tony Brueski, discussing everything from evidence timelines to the psychological scars of abuse. The real dilemma? Determining if these alleged survivors acted out of desperation—or something else entirely. How do we, as a society, navigate a justice system that may not be equipped to handle the complexities of trauma? And, if the brothers are released, what message does that send? Could this be justice, or just a dangerous precedent? #MenendezBrothers #TrueCrimeToday #HiddenKillers #JenniferCoffindaffer #GeorgeGascon #RoyRosello #TraumaAndJustice Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
