She prosecuted more people than her predecessor, Terrence Hallinan, who was considered more liberal. Data compiled by the California Attorney General’s office found that under Harris, 24% of marijuana arrests led to convictions, while under Hallinan, only 18% of arrests led to convictions. But, under Harris, only 45 people went to state prison based on a marijuana conviction. Under Hallinan’s leadership, 135 people went to state prison for a marijuana conviction. Others went to county prison or were given other options for their crime.

Henderson also said that marijuana sales charges often were pleaded down.
