Chesa Boudin didn't mince words in criticizing his successor's handling of three high-profile cases.
The progressive prosecutor, who was recalled a year ago, blasted Jenkins' decision not to charge a Walgreens security guard in the April killing of Banko Brown, as well as her moves to dismiss charges Boudin previously filed against police officers who shot people in the line of duty.
Jenkins, facing public and political criticism over the initial decision, seemingly reversed course when she refused to release video footage of the killing, citing an ongoing investigation that could still result in charges. Her office ultimately published the security video after she declined to press charges.

In court filings and public comments for all three cases, Jenkins has accused Boudin pursuing those prosecutions for political reasons.
