Description

Mayor London Breed appointed former Recall Chesa Boudin spokesperson Brooke Jenkins as San Francisco's new district attorney last week.

Reporters Mallory Moench and Rachel Swan discuss with host Cecilia Lei the changes that Jenkins might bring to the city, and SFSU professor Jason McDaniel explains why Breed's pick is "risky".
