Salt Lake County District Attorney Sim Gill called the footage his opponent posted “dehumanizing, exploitive and self-serving.”
Ahn said the footage of an apparently intoxicated man was illustrative of why she is running for office. Others, including her opponent, argued it was exploitative.
“This is why we don’t do drugs, ladies and gentlemen,” Salt Lake County district attorney candidate Danielle Ahn said in the video, posted to herthat stretch of State Street with at least one supporter to promote her district attorney campaign. She didn’t expect to see someone apparently in distress, but when she did, she began filming and said she eventually helped the man away from the street.
“It’s dehumanizing, it’s exploitive and it’s self-serving. The job of the D.A. is to protect people, not to exploit them,” Gill said. “That’s what leadership is about.” “If this was my actual brother, I’d rather him get clean in jail than die on the street or hurt someone else. But my primary issue is with dealers who are responsible for the deaths of thousands.”
Salt Lake County District Attorney Sim Gill talks about a fatal 2018 police shooting during a news conference in Salt Lake City on Friday, Aug. 26, 2022.
