Disbelief at woke Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg as he downgrades serious crime
2022-01-07
More on this story from yesterday.
  • [Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Alvin Bragg released a memo on Monday telling prosecutors to use prison as a 'last resort'

  • He told them to downgrade some armed robberies to petit larceny cases, and said he would no longer prosecute misdemeanor drugs charges or prostitution

  • NYPD unions say he is emboldening criminals, who are already running rampant

  • NYGOP Chairman Nick Langworthy called it 'pure insanity' and Curtis Sliwa, the defeated Republican candidate said it's now 'open season on crime'

  • He slammed new Mayor Eric Adams who vowed to be tough on crime, but who is now endorsing Bragg

  • 'Beware of Eric Adams who says one thing and then immediately embraces the guy who is advertising: 'come to the borough of Manhattan and commit crime'

There is nothing more dangerous than a man who has lost everything to live for.
