Once-Rising Star in SF Politics Charged With Sexual Assault
Manage episode 433794005 series 2494494
Last week, Jon Jacobo, a once-rising star in the progressive wing of San Francisco politics, was arrested on charges of sexual assault and domestic violence.
These charges come nearly 3 years after a former colleague, Sasha Perigo, publicly accused him of rape. Earlier this year, reporting in the San Francisco Standard found that three more women filed police reports against Jacobo, detailing allegations of stalking, harassment, and physical violence. On Tuesday, Jacobo pleaded not guilty.
Today, we’re sharing an episode with Josh Koehn, who reported this story for the San Francisco Standard earlier this year, about the women who say their stories were ignored.
