Recall of Persky judge signals harsher future rulings
Legal analysts say the San Francisco recall of Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge Aaron Persky for a lenient six month sentence in a sexual assault case will push judges toward tougher punishments. The recall, led by Michele Dauber, replaces Persky with Cindy Hendrickson as prosecutors and supporters warn the decision could deter leniency, a shift noted by UC Berkeley’s Erwin Chemerinsky.
