Yeah, no. Theft under $950 is still theft and it's still illegal. If you're whining about the felony threshold $950 puts it pretty much middle of the road compared to the other forty-nine states. Hell, the threshold in Texas is over $2,000 and has been that high since before Prop. 47 was passed. Find another boogeyman already.
- diebeforei485 4y agoTexas prosecutes misdemeanors. Californian cities essentially do not.
- yucky 4y agoThose other states still prosecute though. And although a misdemeanor isn't as big of a deal as a felony, having to go to court and deal with probation etc. acts as a huge deterrent that you don't get if something just isn't prosecuted.
- inferiorhuman 4y agoThose other states still prosecute though. Boudin prosecuted most cases that were brought to him. In fact he prosecuted a larger percentage than his successor has so far. Boudin also prosecuted police misconduct which made him a lot of enemies.
- diebeforei485 4y agoThis is nonsense. He filed charges then let them off. That's not prosecuting.
