5:48 He says they will prosecute people starting fires but they didn't charge the guy walking around with a blowtorch. This is all like some bizarre Twilight zone episode.

I call BS... You might catch them, but we all know you are just going to release them back on to the street. Like you've been doing for years now...

[wayneyd]

Talk is cheap. The citizens arrested an arsonist, and the police released the arsonist on the same day. DISGUSTING!

[Northerngirl]

The blow torch guy was released back to community….let that sink in

[didymosprasinos]

They should have been arresting and prosecuting these criminals regularly, not just in extreme situations like now!

[serena]

Hard to believe that looters will get prosecuted because you have not done that for years.

[charlespittsjr]

The blow torch guy wasnt charged with anything you lier

[richardcline]

Charged? Not ONE of them will be put in prison where they belong! That is California "justice".

[neilschmid]

Why do these people continue to lie? You know they're not going to prosecute these criminals.

[sherriwasson]

You let the guy out of jail that had the blow torch

[dhass]

Arson should be treated as an act of terror because it terrorizes the community.

[truthiscensored]

They must have stole more than $950 worth of stuff, otherwise they wouldn't be arrested

[scarn]

The people starting fires should be charged with attempted murder

[guythomas]

Arrest the Mayor & Governor too! Top thieves!

[muxammadgaza]

They need to be impeached and prosecuted for negligence. People must go to prison for years for this level of disregard for public safety.

[richardturner]

What about the guy that neighbors found with a blow torch and he got let off? 😡

[charlespittsjr]

Charging does nothing if you don't follow through

[trail]

These woke DA's will not do anything. Give me a break.

[lajibarita]

If you have not arrested the mayor and governor, you are not done

[moboasia]

Los Angeles DA prosecutor why not start filing charges to your Mayor and Governor for dropping the ball.
