Chesa Boudin ( CHAY-suh boo-DEEN; born August 21, 1980) is an American lawyer. A member of the Democratic Party, he has served as the 29th district attorney of San Francisco since January 8, 2020. He previously served as deputy public defender of San Francisco.
After graduating with his Juris Doctor from Yale Law School in 2011, Boudin served as a law clerk to M. Margaret McKeown on the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. He went on to work at the San Francisco Public Defender's Office as a post-doctoral fellow in 2012. Boudin clerked for Charles Breyer on the United States District Court for the Northern District of California from 2013 and 2014 before returning to San Francisco as a deputy public defender.
Heavily criticized for his perceived softness on crime, Boudin was the subject of a recall election on June 7, 2022, and in a landslide, 60% of voters chose to remove him from office. Mayor London Breed, who had backed a more moderate Democrat in the 2019 district attorney race, will name Boudin’s replacement after the results are certified by the elections office and approved by the San Francisco Board of Supervisors.
