Philadelphia district attorney candidate Pat Dugan didn\u2019t mince words Wednesday, blasting progressive incumbent Larry Krasner for what he called soft-on-crime policies that he argued led to the disappearance of 23-year-old beauty queen Kada Scott.<\/p>\n

“This is literally the fox in the henhouse,” Dugan, a former municipal judge running as a Republican, told “Fox & Friends<\/a>.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Kada Scott is dead, but this has been going on for eight years because of Krasner’s policies\u2026 He refuses to be a prosecutor.”<\/p>\n

Krasner has faced mounting backlash after repeat offender Keon King \u2014 previously released on bail before Krasner\u2019s office dropped kidnapping and assault charges \u2014 was later charged in the disappearance of Scott, whose remains were discovered over the weekend.<\/p>\n

Krasner blamed “systemic issues” for the suspect\u2019s release on bail for the earlier case during a news conference last Friday.<\/p>\n

“Ultimately, the buck stops here,” he said. “It\u2019s not my job to throw other people under the bus. If there\u2019s a decision that is poor \u2014 and I believe that was an incorrect decision \u2014 then we have to own it and try to do better moving forward.”<\/p>\n

Krasner said his office withdrew the earlier case because the victim and witness failed to appear, suggesting they were afraid because King was out on bail.<\/p>\n

Dugan accused Krasner of “trying to create chaos” \u2014 something he said he intends to correct by adequately training prosecutors to represent victims and uphold the law.<\/p>\n

“Our job as prosecutors<\/a> is to protect our citizens and do justice,” Dugan said.<\/p>\n

“If there are violent criminals out there, they need to go to jail\u2026 I was a judge for 17 years, and one of the things that I did [was] I ran Veterans Court, a holistic restorative type of justice. The recidivism rate was less than 10%, so I believe in second chances, but the people running around with guns, committing carjackings\u2026 they need to go to jail and go to jail quickly.”<\/p>\n

“Keon King should have been put away earlier this year,” Dugan said.<\/p>\n

Dugan and Krasner will face off at the ballot box on Nov. 4.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital previously reached out<\/a> to Krasner’s office for comment but did not hear back in time for publication.<\/p>\n
