Hate Crimes Won't Fly in LA | Venice Beach News
Description
Los Angeles County DA Nathan Hochman is sending a crystal-clear message: hate crimes won’t be tolerated.

Even as hate crime reports dip 4% year-over-year, the DA insists every act of bias-driven violence will be prosecuted — because in LA, hate attacks the whole community, not just individuals.
