Jobs Instead of Jail?

" Dave Allison. Thank you -- to a program in San Francisco is actually. -- any any existing criminal records for anyone who graduates from it but. That's not all it's also training. Some illegal immigrants for jobs. -- keeper was assaulted by an illegal immigrant in the program last year and she joins us now live good morning Amanda. Good morning -- before we get to what happens you let -- just tell the audience this is a program designed by the district attorney and what she wanted to do. Was to help. First time drug offenders. Get jobs -- expunged their record. And help them get jobs bought. Illegal immigrants ended up being in the program -- ended up being a jobs program for illegal immigrants let me ask you what happened to you you were -- it. Finally -- immigrant you he tried to run you over. -- skull was fractured in the process and what did you learn afterwards. --"

" Him in the driver of the car were illegal immigrants and they were. Her he was and enrolled in this program being trained forward job a job he couldn't legally old."

" Now let me ask you -- Who was the DA intending this bill for illegal immigrants or did she not know Camilla -- the DA in San Francisco by the way of the Sanctuary City. Did she simply not know and not do -- homework that these people. In fact were illegal immigrants. "

" Yeah I I don't believe that it is she probably intended that happened but. You. They managed to slip through the cracks. They think somebody didn't do their homework."

" you know she's even admitted it she says it was a mistake it was a flaw. In the design of the program -- she's now says. I didn't even know. How many illegal immigrants were in the program but -- as we fix it. We fix the problem this is a woman who is now running for attorney. General of California. What do you think of that."

" It's it's surprising it seems like San Francisco has a lot of crime and a lot of people are slipping through the cracks."

" also has the city not the city but the whole state. The unemployment rate is north of 11% shouldn't they be worrying about those. Who are legal and who do not have criminal records trying to get them work in the state of California."

" Yes San Francisco has very large problem with. Homeless people and you'd think that some of that job training would be more beneficial to them. -- amended that to your story after you were brutally attacks. But what turned out to be an illegal immigrant and as we said your skull was fractured who what and has happened in your life for you still in -- Now -- left I didn't feel safe there anymore. How successful was this program do you know. Well apparently."

" It it sounds like there was a lot of success with the people that. Did graduate from it -- it and there there were a lot that -- Good failed to meet their requirements -- I would assume is every offense but. Well if there's any silver lining to your -- horrible story on what what you lived through its that they are looking into this program more and trying to close that loophole. So that illegal immigrants are not being trained for jobs that they can't legally have Bob -- Kiefer. Good luck to you thanks for sharing your story with us -- you think."
