Brooke Jenkins, the interim district attorney appointed by San Francisco Mayor London Breed, was sworn into office at City Hall Friday afternoon.
"As your district attorney, I vow to continue our mission of being an advocate for victims, of pursuing justice for victims. That is our job," Jenkins said Friday after being sworn in.
On Friday, former DA Boudin issued a press release regarding the appointment, stating he had"reached out to Brooke Jenkins to offer any assistance I can provide in ensuring a smooth transition. I am tremendously humbled by the strong, talented team my administration has built, which will continue to serve San Franciscans."
Breed also clashed with Boudin over how best to crack down on unfettered drug dealing and opioid use in the city's troubled Tenderloin neighborhood.
