Among those tied to the recall effort are Oakland's Chinatown community advocate, Carl Chan, who is listed as the treasurer of "Save Alameda for Everyone." Last month, Chan spoke out against the Price's handling of a case involvingduring a shooting on Interstate 880. Price opted to remove a special circumstances charge from the case, which means the accused will no longer face the possibility of life without parole or the death sentence.
Price’s position is in line with her campaign promise to implement progressive policies centered around restorative justice. But her critics, including Barry Donelan of the Oakland Police Officers' Association, have argued that those policies have made their work more challenging in a city that has seen a 14% increase in robberies since last year.
