District Attorney Jackie Lacey’s Letter to Gov. Brown Regarding Bruce Davis

Friday, February 1st, 2013

Feb. 1 – Los Angeles County District Attorney Jackie Lacey strongly urged Governor Jerry Brown to reverse a decision to grant parole for Manson family member Bruce Davis, in a letter sent last Thursday.

Davis, 70, is serving a life sentence for the murders of Gary Hinman and Donald “Shorty” Shea, and has been in prison since April 21, 1972. Last October, a parole board granted Davis parole for the second time in as many hearings.

Starting Monday, Governor Brown will have 30 days to reverse, modify or confirm the board’s decision.

Included with Lacey’s letter were two additional opposition letters from the first wife and the daughter of Donald “Shorty” Shea.

Jackie Lacey was elected Los Angeles County District Attorney last November, becoming both the county’s first female and first African American District Attorney. Lacey has been with the District Attorney’s office since 1986.

  1. Jean Harlow says:

    So his oldest daughter and his first ex-wife contacted the Governor about Bruce. Has anyone ever contacted the DA’s office or Governor Brown from his second family or his second ex-wife? Or for that matter his brothers or sisters?
