The Palisades Fire, Eaton Fire, and other blazes have devastated Los Angeles and burned massive amounts of structures to the ground. While residents and business owners fled, opportunists came in and started stealing. Ana Garcia sits down with District Attorney Nathan Hochman in an exclusive interview about the looting, scams, and price gouging surrounding this tragedy.
Scammers, looters, price gougers try to get away with crime amid L.A. wildfires

If anyone wants to prepare for this type of crime, new book, "Dealing with Burglary and Home Invasion Robbery." Have a plan.
Not one white person
Lots of minorities pictured😮
Looting a neighborhood of multi-million dollar homes?? Not sure how I'm supposed to feel about that…
Usual suspects
Now that the “newcomers “are affecting you elite directly, you’re all of a sudden ok with arresting & charging crimes🤔🤔🤔…what changed?
People on their best nefarious behavior. Disgusting.
The real "looters" are the big companies who use these fires as a way to steal land and housing and jack up the prices!
9 years for the arsonists and up to life in prison for the looters?
Uh hurricane helene didn’t get a fraction of the coverage that this is getting
my DAD!, he passed away 50 years ago, Xmas Day!, Cyclone Tracy, on board the HMAS ARROW!, 33 years old?, i was only 2!, but, the graffiti spray painted on standing structures?, " LOOTERS WILL BE SHOT! ", that looked appropriate!, considering WTF Everyone had just been through?, but, was 1974?, they sold Rifles in the Supermarkets back then!, while Mum was Grieving! changing my Nappies!.
Country full of scumbags we have! We need law & order again! 😡
Arresting people who were taking advantage of people at their lowest point. Are these matrimonial attorneys?
They will be pardoned and given gold coins for their brave work. By Mr. Orange man. The leader of the circus.
It's not bad enough the horrific damage that is happening, you get these lowlifes stealing.
Always the same suspects . Always.
The human rats are coming out.
The guy in the helmet has a body cam, he was actually wrongly detained
Bottom feeders.
Hopefully they ARE prosecuted. Most are caught and released
Hate. In Walnut Creek CA. both racism and hate are the laws of the land. From the lying racist Contra Costa County fire department who will frame innocent law-abiding minorities by starting small fires “investigating” them then determining the “suspect” to be an innocent law abiding minority. Then they will team with the lying racist Walnut Creek police department to harass and surveil the innocent law abiding minority to the fullest extent of the “law”.
Remember Sonya Massey,
We must Love we must pray.
Throw the book at them & keep them in jail. Thank goodness, LA now has a DA that performs.

WTF people? Why must you hurt people even more than they are already hurting????????? I just don't understand. This society makes Sodom and Gomorrah look like a calm gathering!!!!!!! This society is BROKEN!!!!!!!
Democrat Utopia… Pay your Taxes…. So they can defund and reallocate to illegals, criminals, trans, and of course their pockets!
For the business that are doing this should be posted so we don't go the most of these that or doing is people from other countries that do not know law they or doing in know like Sinclair gas station and Krispy chicken that has changed the price of the chicken no other Krispy chicken is doing this and they was doing this before fire.also there is a Krispy chicken in San Bernardino on 1st who Also changed price. When they get reported they say they did not know our country let people open business and take advantage of us this is not cool I call when I see this happen but sometimes the people who supposed to keep law is not please know this is happening in place where poor live then they wonder why things or bad we need police to do their job but they or not they or killing innocent people this is congress and the president fault…. also we need to look into firing congress people who do not do what the say if they or there 6 to 9 months and nothing they should be fired it is a shame that some of congress been there before Obama and they still there doing nothing we need all new congress and President not Donald Trump who people played with voting machines to make sure he won anything could be hacked because they way he left the 1st time he should have never been let back in but as long as congress keep their jobs anything is good.in other work places if you don't do what you said you could do you get fired and it doesn't take 4 year
They are stealing from filthy rich people – who cares?
What if they are like Robin Hood, taking from the rich and giving to the poor.
All these talking heads. Why didn't they monitor the reservoir levels withbthe same gusto?
He was dressed as the media😂
FD doesn't dress like that
Ana, stories like this make me want to throw my faith in humanity over a steep cliff and call it a day!!! 🤦♀️✌️🤟🤞🦋🇺🇸
Ana, I’m a pretty nonviolent person but there are times when a little vigilante justice is better than the long arm of the law!!! Good thing I live in New Jersey, eh? 😉✌️🤟🤞🦋🇺🇸
Lowest of the low
No worries …Bass and Newsome are on the way to assist! Lol…get the water in the hydrants…first off.
The current situation in Los Angeles has definite parallels with the plot line of The Walking Dead. That television series takes place within a zombie apocalypse, where death and mayhem are everywhere and predatory, opportunistic humans are just as much a threat to public safety as are the cannibalistic zombies. In the real-life LA of 2025, dangerous criminals are likewise preying upon and exploiting the vulnerable, displaced residents. It's a sad case of reality mirroring horror fiction.
How is it people in these places STILL elect the leftists that allow their communities to burn…. How many more times until they wake up? Mind blowing 😊
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
What is truly wrong with people!
How yall think we took over the United States
Low Life Scumbaggs
Did you show the white guy getting arrested, to distract the comment section from the collage?
Sounds like cia dressing up as regular citizens to set off a set of events. People gear up or fall. Don't donate ever!!!
