The campaign to recall Contra Costa County District Attorney Diana Becton has ended after organizers missed a key filing deadline, reaffirming her commitment to equitable public safety and highlighting the resistance to systemic change in the justice system.
Contra Costa County District Attorney Diana Becton announced that no criminal charges will be filed against the Concord police officers who fatally shot Nathan Lee Keesler in a violent struggle inside his parents’ home earlier this year, as the officers acted in lawful self-defense and defense of others.
A coalition of law enforcement, lawmakers, victim advocates, and service providers is urging Governor Gavin Newsom and the state Legislature to include $260 million in the final budget to protect critical services for survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and trafficking.
