A former San Francisco fire commissioner who was attacked in the city April 5, allegedly by an unhoused man, says in a statement the district attorney intends to drop the charges against his attacker.
Here's the full statement from Carmignani's representative:
"Unfortunately, we have been informed by the District Attorney's Office that they have decided to dismiss the charges against Don Carmignani's attacker, Garret Doty, and release him back onto City streets with impunity. According to the DA, the attack on Don was self defense. "The DA also informed us that Don may be prosecuted for discharging pepper spray. We strongly believe that rather than threatening Mr. Carmignani, they should focus on prosecuting the individual who has terrorized the Marina, and put Don in the hospital after brutally beating him with a metal rod.
"It is worth noting that, even though this incident occurred 20 days ago, no one from SFPD or the DA's office ever interviewed, or attempted to interview Don about his version of events. While interviewing the victim seems like an important step in a criminal prosecution, that was clearly not the City's priority in this case.
"We are releasing several additional videos, all of which were previously sent to the District Attorney's Office.
