So much so, that the gang member from the City of Angels is vowing to get the woke DA’s name tattooed on his face.
Hernandez pleaded guilty to the brutal 2018 slaying of a pot delivery man, but in an audiotape of a jailhouse conversation obtained by Fox News, the gangbanger thinks Gascon is his kind of guy.
“I’m going to get that n—–’s name on my face. That’s a champ right there. F—in’ Gascón,” said Hernandez, a member of the OTF gang. “He’s making historic changes for all of us, fool. I’m just grateful, fool. Like, I got good news off that s—.”
Gascon — a former cop and prosecutor — campaigned on a progressive agenda, sometimes called soft on crime. Among his most controversial initiatives he was to drop sentencing enhancements in almost every case.

Enhancements are typically used in cases when a homicide features other elements such as sexual assault, robbery, gang-related activity, and things, like saying, murder for financial gain.
Like, say, former Woodbridge resident Monica Sementilli, 50, and her boyfriend Robert Louis Baker, 59, who are charged with first-degree murder in the brutal slaying of famed Toronto hairstylist Fabio Sementilli, 49, on Jan. 23, 2017, in The Angels.
He was stabbed to death on the patio of his Woodland Hills home.
Cops say the prize was a new life for the widow that would be financed with a $1.6-million insurance windfall. None of the allegations have been proven in court.
Fabio’s tight-knit Toronto family feared that Gascon — who has been targeted in two recalls and has lost scores of veteran prosecutors because of the soft-on-crime policies — would go easy on Monica if she is convicted. That was the plan.

But Superior Court Judge Ronald Coen refused to dismiss the special circumstance clause that can potentially send a convicted felon to prison for life without the possibility of parole.
Gascon fanboy Luis Hernandez was initially looking down the barrel of life in the slammer without the possibility of parole. His enhancements to him were for gang affiliation and murdering during an armed robbery, Fox News reported.
The DA had them dropped, so Hernandez would do no more than a 25-year jolt.
Hernandez gushed in the jailhouse phone call: “This s— looking real good. Now we got a new DA in LA … so they’re going to drop … like my gun enhancement, my gang enhancement. My gang enhancement is 10 years, fool, for being a gang member. And then the gun in the commission of a crime.”

Breaks are designed for 17-year-old kids who get pinched with a bag of weed, not for killers. Gascon doesn’t appear able to tell the difference between them.
The DA sees the parade of degenerates and dirtbags who pass through his office as victims.
If you need any indication of where Los Angeles is going under its woke DA, check out San Francisco where he was the district attorney and police chief before moving south.
But don’t take our word for it: Ask the family of bank executive Michelle Avan.
She was tortured and beaten to death by an ex-boyfriend and Gascon doesn’t want the enhancements that would send the accused killer to prison forever.
Instead, if convicted, he’ll be out in 10 years. Avan’s family is rightly outraged.
“Why are we having this justice fight for someone who committed a crime as thick as the one committed? Why are we having to fight? said Avan’s son, Trevor, who found her body.
“Why are we having to reach out? Why are we having to demand meetings with our DA’s office and administration for them to just do the right thing? … A person who commits this gross crime should be facing life without parole. That should just be common sense.”
Should be.
