Victims of clergy sex abuse in San Francisco rebuke Kamala Harris for not fighting for them

Kamala Harris said, you know the power I have as a prosecutor is that with a swipe of my pen I can charge someone with a misdemeanor the lowest level of fence possible and by virtue of that swipe of my pen you will have to go to a courthouse and stand in line you will have to come out of pocket and hire an attorney you may get arrested for a few hours you will be embarrassed in your community you will miss time from coming onto the Google campus all because with the swipe of my pen I've tried charged you with a crime which I may choose to dismiss two weeks.

Joey Piscitelli was angry when Kamala Harris emerged as a contender for the Democratic presidential nomination. It brought back the frustration he felt in the 2000s, when he was a newly minted spokesman for clergy sex abuse victims and Harris was San Francisco’s district attorney.

Piscitelli says Harris never responded to him when he wrote to tell her that a priest who had molested him was still in ministry at a local Catholic cathedral.

And, he says, she didn’t reply five years later when he wrote again, urging her to release records on accused clergy to help other alleged victims who were filing lawsuits.
