San Francisco's Polarizing District Attorney Joins the Show
Chesa Boudin was elected in 2019 on a progressive platform aimed at ending mass incarceration and addressing the root causes of crime. Now, just two years into his tenure, Boudin faces a recall effort to remove him from office. Michel Martin speaks with Boudin about a rise in violent crime and how the jailing of his parents informed his views on criminal justice.
