I don't get this doublethink, but it comes up all the time. They ran on a platform of not prosecuting crime because it is unfair to do so. They were elected.

I don't understand who you think you are going to trick into this nonsense that Boudin was super tough on crime. It's so embarrassing for you.
Since people are trying to rewrite the narrative here to avoid taking responsibility for a failed experiment:
'''Restorative justice is a survivor-centered alternative to the traditional prosecution model that attacks mass incarceration on two fronts. First, through a process focused on active accountability rather than passive punishment, people who have harmed others are equipped with the tools they need to stop harming others in the future. They may receive education, job training, counseling, substance use treatment, and more, and upon successfully completing the restorative justice process, may avoid prosecution.'''
