Chesa Boudin wants to shake up San Francisco's criminal justice system. Boudin comes from an unconventional background: His parents were jailed for participating in a robbery that led him to a career as a public defender. This week, final results showed Boudin was elected District Attorney by just 2,800 votes. While some worry about what a public defender-turned-DA will mean to public safety and criminal justice, Boudin says it’s the system itself that’s been the most harmful. Guest: Mary Franklin Harvin, KQED reporter Get tickets to The California Report Magazine live show on Nov. 21 at the Brava Theater Center in San Francisco.
