In this episode, host Pamela Price sits down with Alex Feigen Fasteau, a seasoned veteran prosecutor with over two decades of experience in San Francisco and Alameda County.
Together, they pull back the curtain on the complexities of the justice system, from prosecuting economic crimes and sexual assault to the high-stakes work of the Public Accountability Unit.
Feigan Fasteau shares how he was summarily fired by the interim appointed District Attorney less than two weeks after she took office, and there was no transition of the cases the Public Accountability Unit was handling for two years.
In this episode, we discuss:
The Opportunity: What drives a 20-year San Francisco prosecutor to join the Alameda County DA’s office?
The Transition: How Feigen Fasteau and anyone with less than a year tenure was fired by the interim appointed District Attorney without any consideration of their work or their worth to the people of Alameda County.
Systemic Issues: Addressing the ”criminalization of poverty” and systemic racism from within the prosecutor's office.
Police Accountability: The logistical and legal hurdles of charging peace officers, including the reality of ”qualified immunity” and the need for independent investigations.
The Maurice Monk Case: A look into the supervision of high-profile cases involving in-custody deaths and public records.
The ”Blue Wall”: The challenges of finding independent officers willing to sign affidavits against their own.
Alex shares his unique journey from being hired by Kamala Harris to becoming the Director of Public Accountability for Alameda County and now, transitioning into civil rights law.
