San Francisco's new district attorney Brooke Jenkins said the state of the city is a crisis. On Sunday she spoke to KPIX about her priorities for the D.A.'s office and how she plans to balance reform and accountability.

When asked if she will be ridding the office any people who are still loyal to her predecessor, Chesa Boudin, Jenkins said "I have not made any personnel decisions at this time. That's not a question I can answer right now."

"You just have to keep trying to make (the mission) clear and there will be people who don't buy in and that's fine. I had come into this office to unify us. I do not want us to be divided by who was hired by which administration. I want us to work together for the same thing, which is what's best for San Francisco and keeping San Franciscans safe," Jenkins said.
