Why does the DA refuse to prosecute? Prop 47 or not misdemeanors can easily earn a 6 month incarceration in case of a repeat offender. So these while obviously related it doesn't seem that Prop 47 is the big bad wolf here.

Because he is extremely pro-criminal. This is why there's a recall campaign against him.

I agree that Chesa is a much bigger problem, but Prop 47 is still a problem too.

What's the problem with Prop 47?

Most of these criminals are repeat offenders. If they stayed in jail longer, they wouldn't be able to reoffend as often.
