LOS ANGELES - George Gascon, a co-author of California’s controversial Prop 47 and current candidate for L.A.

Gascon spoke with FOX 11 investigative reporter Bill Melugin, and anchors Elex Michaelson and Christine Devine, where he reinforced his position that Prop 47 is creating a badly needed culture change within the criminal justice system in California.
Melugin pressed Gascon on concerns about drug addiction and rising property crime rates. Press play on the clip above to watch the full interview.
