Governor Newsom quickly finalizes agreement to speed up prosecutions in Alameda County

SACRAMENTO — Building on the state’s efforts to crack down on crime in the East Bay, Governor Gavin Newsom today announced that the California National Guard’s (CalGuard) Counterdrug Task Force has finalized a memorandum of understanding with the California Department of Justice (CA DOJ) to allow CalGuard prosecutors to begin handling cases originating in Alameda County. The agreement is modeled after a successful partnership established in San Francisco with District Attorney Brooke Jenkins, which has helped boost felony narcotics convictions in San Francisco.

 

Today’s announcement follows the Governor’s redeployment of the state resources from the Alameda County District Attorney’s office, after local officials were unable to finalize a similar agreement, first proposed in February, 2024.
