A Los Angeles City Council candidate has come under heavy criticism after she said, "F--- the police," during a meet-and-greet event with college students in which an audio recording was leaked.
Ysabel Jurado, who is running to unseat Councilmember Kevin de León, who has also come under heavy scrutiny for remarks made in a leaked recording in 2022, was meeting with California State University, Los Angeles, students on Oct. 17 at the time of the incident.
Jurado was asked about her stance on spending discretionary funds on police overtime.
"What's the rap verse? F--- the police, that's how I see them," Jurado responded, appearing to reference the 1988 N.W.A. song, "F*** tha Police."
