Pamela Price accused of threatening employees amid recall campaign

OAKLAND, Calif. - Employees at the Alameda County District Attorney's Office accuse District Attorney Pamela Price of making criminal threats and intimidating them for their participation in the recall campaign against her.

Lawyer Daniel Horowitz, who is representing the employees, wrote a letter to the county's top prosecutor with a list of demands to halt the alleged threats and intimidation tactics.

"District Attorney Price has used the authority of her office threaten hundreds of employees of the Alameda County District Attorney’s office with arrest should they engage in political activity relating to the Citizen’s Recall election this November," Horowitz wrote in the letter addressed to Price, County Counsel Donna Ziegler, and Chief Assistant District Attorney Royl Roberts.

According to Horowitz, Price has displayed "mob boss tactics," including hiring private armed guards for her office and courthouse— unprecedented in the county’s history as Alameda County Sheriff's deputies typically provide security.
