   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorA group called Justice Without Favor is pushing to recall Kern County District Attorney Cynthia Zimmer over the Scrivner case, and my guest tonight is Ignatius Boone, inmate forty-oh-four-seventeen, who says he knows petitions.

   Ignatius BooneFor the record, Vera, a recall lives or dies on signatures, and I have spent a lot of quiet time with signatures. Professionally. Allegedly.

   Ignatius BooneThe pencil is for counting. For the record, a group like this needs thousands of names, and I could tell you which ones look tired.

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThe reports I have don't say how many signatures they need, so let's not guess.

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorDo the voters of Kern County get to decide whether the district attorney stays, and is that healthy?

   Ignatius BooneIt is healthy when the names are real.

    Ignatius BooneFor the record, my last batch had four hundred names, then three hundred, then, well, one very busy man named Gary.

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorIgnatius, that sounds like a confession on live television.

12. IB

    Ignatius BooneIt's a clerical misunderstanding with a very long sentence. I only wanted to help the recall, so give me a job title.

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorFine, last question. How many signatures does it take to start a recall, in your expert opinion?

    Ignatius BooneFor the record, Vera, one, and I can do it in a minute.
