Great news for community safety! Our deputy DA attended Hettiger’s parole hearing to oppose his release and the Board of Parole issued a 3-year denial. Our office will keep protecting the public by opposing early release for individuals who continue to pose a threat.

Today, Sac County DA Thien Ho was proud to stand in solidarity with victim and survivor advocates from across California at our 2nd Annual Survivor Advocacy Day at the State Capitol!

With 17 DA offices and more than 20 victim organizations represented - this day sends a powerful message: survivors matter, and their voices must help shape our laws. The Sac County contingent advocated for AB 46 and AB 2727, which would change Mental Health Diversion and Elder Parole laws to protect victims and public safety. Thank you to all of the participants who showed up to speak out, and special thanks to our co-host partners Placer County DA's Office, San Bernardino County DA’s Office and Riverside County DA's Office.

This is more than an event — it’s a movement that will continue to expand and strengthen with each year!
