Child molester Hannah Tubbs was recorded gloating about the light sentence Los Angeles DA George Gascon gave her for molesting a 10-year-old in 2014.
In jailhouse recordings, Hannah Tubbs, the 26-year-old child molester that ONLY received a two-year sentence after pleading guilty to molesting a 10-year-old girl in 2014 was recorded gloating about the light sentence she received.
Tubbs stated that nothing would happen to her after pleading guilty to the assault because of Gascon's policies. She then laughed that she would neither go back to prison nor would have to register as a sex offender. To make matters worse and more disgusting, Tubbs would then make flagrant remarks about his victim.
In one of the recording she said:
"I’m gonna plead out to it, plead guilty,"
She continued by saying:
"They’re gonna stick me on probation, and it’s gonna be dropped, it’s gonna be done, I won’t have to register, won’t have to do nothing."
Tubbs' father then responds:
"You won’t have to register?"
Hannah responds:
"I won’t have to do none of that,"
The father would then respond:
"So what are they going to do to you then?"
"Nothing," Hannah responds then she laughs. GROSS!
The incident took place in 2014 inside a Denny's women's restroom in Palmdale, CA. At the time of this incident, she identified as male James Tubbs. She was arrested approximately eight years after the crime. At that time, Tubbs began identifying as a woman.
Tubbs received a two-year sentence at a juvenile facility - Gascon's office declined to transfer the case to adult court.
Tubbs' victim who was 10-years-old at the time of the assault spoke to Fox News Digitial about the handling of this case:
"The things he did to me and made me do that day was beyond horrible for a ten-year-old girl to have to go through," ... "I want him tried as an adult for the crimes he committed against me."
She also stated:
"I’ve also heard that my attacker goes by she/them pronouns now,"
She continued:
"I see it also unfair to try him as a woman as well, seeing how he clearly didn’t act like one on January 1st of 2014."
Following the backlash of this case, Gascon released a statement on Sunday:
"Like every responsible office, we learn as we go, take feedback from the community, and make necessary adjustments based on our experiences and the complex nature of this work," he continued by saying: "a small number of cases" necessitate flexibility denied to his prosecutors under his edicts.
Gascon would also say:
"Specifically, we learned a lot from the Hannah Tubbs case about the need for a policy safety valve,"
Lastly, he said:
"Ms. Tubbs had several charges in other counties after the juvenile offense but never received any services which both her past behavior and that subsequent to her arrest demonstrates she clearly needs," ... "After her sentencing in our case, I became aware of extremely troubling statements she made about her case, the resolution of it and the young girl that she harmed."
After much backpedaling, Gascon admitted that his policies were not strict enough, "after listening to the community, victims and colleagues."
