There’s an exception to every rule. Los Angeles D.A. George Gascon wants to go easier on kids and feels they should not be sentenced like adults. But his stance here is way too naive and allows for much more serious crimes to be treated like non-issues, like this case of an almost 18-year-old trans molesting a 10-year-old little girl.
“Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon is facing criticisms after a 26-year-old transgender woman pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting a young girl, and faces sentencing of a short stay in a juvenile detention center or probation.
“It’s useless to catch criminals like [Hannah Tubbs] if we don’t follow through and seek justice for victims such as the 10-year-old girl [she] sexually assaulted. She bears the burden of a lifetime of trauma,” L.A. County Supervisor Kathryn Barger, told the Los Angeles Times. “[She] will be offered therapeutic interventions under the auspices of ‘restorative justice’ … and possibly granted only probation or parole. Where is the justice for [her] young victim and her family?”
Hannah Tubbs, 26, pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl in a women’s bathroom back in 2014 when she was two weeks away from turning 18. She walked into the bathroom of a Denny’s where she grabbed the 10-year-old by the throat, locked her in a stall, and put her hand down the girl’s pants, the Los Angeles Times reported.
Tubbs stopped when another person walked into the restroom.
Tubbs was not linked to the case until 2019. Her DNA was entered into a database that year when she was arrested on suspicion of battery in Idaho. Prosecutors filed charges against her for the 2014 assault case in 2020, not long after Gascon took office.”
This pedo was practically an adult when he did this. To say that Tubbs may get a short stay in juvie or probation is unacceptable. He attacked a child. He deserves far more than a slap on the wrist. This D.A. is failing to give this little girl justice all because he is soft on crime when it comes to minors. And as backward as California is, they’d probably put Tubbs in a female Juvenile Detention Hall where he can attack more girls.
