The resurfaced audio and mailers come as Harris’s campaign makes her record as a former prosecutor a focal point of her 2024 bid for the presidency.
The Washington Free Beacon -- Vice President Kamala Harris was caught inflating her prosecutorial record when she was running for San Francisco district attorney in 2003, according to resurfaced audio of a debate and copies of mailers sent out by Harris’s campaign at the time.
The campaign mailers, which ABC News reported Thursday, touted Harris as a “veteran prosecutor” with “thirteen years of courtroom experience” and who “has tried hundreds of serious and violent felonies, including homicide, rape, and child sexual assault cases.”
Harris’s then-opponent, veteran criminal defense attorney Bill Fazio, questioned Harris’s claim during a radio debate.
