there is now outrage over the actions by los angeles's far left district attorney george gascon announcingo disband the unite that alerts victims about paroles. the district attorney's office told fox news while a victim has a right to be notified, they also have the right not to be contacted. after consulting with victim experts we don't believe this is a trauma informed approach. david, one of the deputy district attorney's there pointed to the fact that the d.a. recognized that victim service representatives will be at the hearings. they are not attorneys. when you take away the prosecutors and the victim's right to know and give them a serve that is counselling that's like putting a band-aid on something and is not a solution. a right to know supersedes the right not to be contacted. >> a couple of days ago i spoke to a friend of mine on a parole board and people in the law enforcement community about this issue. the important of impact statements not only in the courtroom but from families needs to be considered. there is another problem here that goes to where gascon's excuse about s

>> so what is behind this is this is a continuing thing with george gascon.he wants to code defense attorneys and no prosecutors involved in these proceedings and in court generally. so we came in and had a ton of directives. those directive started off by stating, "we can't charge anybody with a prior felony." and if you use a gun, we can allege it. if it is a murderer in the course of a, we can't allege it. the whole design is he believes that nobody should have a prison sentence longer than 15 years where it is not reevaluated. the problem is is that, under the law if you allege the special circumstances, these strikes, et cetera, he is unable to do that. soul of this back down to in a life sentence an individual is entitled to a parole hearing. so what george gascon has done, the first day he came into office and said, "listen, we have been going to court on these court hearings since 1978. prosecutors, you are no longer allowed to go to parole hearings to post parole. that is what he did, that was the order but that was not good enough for him. the next

they also like to use the word reform and lots of little buzzwords of how george gascon got elected byy. it is all the same talking points and really all it is his soft pedaling soft on crime policies. really he pulled one over on voters and very quickly, people saw the actual effects of what he was doing. that is why there was such a quick backlash and outrage from the victims. the image in the first ever heard. that was really a victim started and led effort. i think with the second time around, we were actually able to build up the resources necessary from the get-go to launch and succeed in such a monumental effort. >> steve: we are going to verify all the signatures. let's see what happens next. thank you for joining us today from california. >> thank you so much. >> steve: coming up this thursday, a vietnam vet who ran through him a enemy fire receives the military's highest honor. specialist five dwight birdwell joins us live after the break. finding my way forward with node-positive breast cancer felt overwhelming at times. but i never just found my way, i made it. so when i fi
