A petition for recalling Contra Costa County District Attorney Diana Becton has been submitted and is awaiting approval. The petition requires around 72,000 signatures to reach the ballot. Becton has defended her actions, highlighting her commitment to public safety and justice. Critics of the recall argue that continual criminal activity and unmet promises to victims prompted their dissatisfaction. Becton claims her efforts include aggressive prosecution of violent offenders and enhancements to victim support services, claiming she takes bold action to safeguard communities.
The recall against DA Becton is an effort to undermine the will of the people of Contra Costa County... voters chose decisively because they trust her dedication to public safety.
We are frustrated by her continuous empty promises to victims and their families that justice will prevail while she permits criminals to roam free.
Becton has taken bold actions to protect our communities, aggressively prosecuting violent offenders and addressing organized retail theft, human trafficking, and hate crimes.
Becton expanded victim support services and pioneered proactive crime prevention initiatives.
