'Catch And Release': Suspect in Viral LA Flash Mob Robbery Was Released on Cashless Bail One Day Before Heist

A Los Angeles woman accused of participating in a viral flash mob robbery was released on cashless bail just one day before the heist, court records show, reflecting the city's struggle to fight crime under liberal prosecutor George Gascón.

Los Angeles police last week arrested Ziona Janea Famoso for her role in a viral August 12 smash-and-grab robbery at a Nordstrom department store, where dozens of masked thieves destroyed displays and left with hundreds of thousands of dollars in stolen goods.

If not for the city's cashless bail policy Famoso may not have participated.

The revelation comes as Los Angeles experiences a surge in organized retail crime under George Soros-backed prosecutor Gascón, who campaigned as a liberal reformer working to "Dramatically change" what he called a failed "Tough-on-crime approach." Gascón in 2020 announced an end to cash bail on his first day in office, calling the practice "Unjust" and "Unsafe." While Gascón walked back that policy last year, a Los Angeles judge in May reinstated cashless bail in the city, arguing that a "Wealth-based detention system" is unconstitutional.

"That's basically going to be the policy of Los Angeles County for lower-level felonies and most misdemeanors. You do a smash-and-grab, you're going to be released in time to do a second one on the same day."

Gascón has vowed to run for a second term next year, though criticism from fellow Democrats over the recent spike in retail robberies could deter his reelection bid, with past supporters saying Gascón's policies turned Los Angeles into a "Zombie town."

Famoso is not the only Nordstrom heist suspect with a long rap sheet.
