DA Bragg is pro-criminal for letting the perp walk in bodega worker Jose Alba’s case
NY Post ^ | 13 July 2022 | Ed Board

How many times can Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg get it wrong when it comes to criminals and crime victims? His prosecutors declined to charge the woman who stabbed bodega clerk Jose Alba, arguing that she was just defending her boyfriend.

This, though she began the deadly altercation by bringing Austin Simon, her irate ex-con boyfriend, into the store and forcing the 61-year-old Alba to act in self defense. Somehow, Bragg still thinks the bodega worker was the aggressor.

After meeting with United Bodegas of America leaders Tuesday, Bragg is hinting that he might drop the second-degree murder charge against Alba (with $250,000 bail), filed after Simon died at the hospital.

Yet the same surveillance video that led to Alba getting a much lower $5,000 bond and winning release from Rikers also shows the woman assaulting him. What would have befallen the poor clerk if that video evidence was unavailable?

Arrest the man who defended himself and let the woman who stabbed him walk with no charges. He's gotta go.

He needs to be fired. Right now. Keep the pressure on.

Call Governor Honchul, (518) 474-8390.

I would say that Jose Alba should sue the woman in Civil court, but she is just a welfare hoe and it would be a waste of his time and money.

Alba “snatched” the chips out of the little girl’s hand just because her momma couldn’t pay for it. Alba was mean and rude to a small child who, through no fault of her own, is poor and the victim of oppression. If only Alba let her momma have the chips for free, this never would have happened.

This could be the mindset of Alvin Bragg. The trouble is...he’s the police chief of an entire city, not just some black neighborhood. He’s a racist who has no business in a job serving the public.

This f**ktard excuse of an officer of the court is a prime candidate for several sessions of wall-to-wall continuing education.

No, she wasn't defending her boyfriend and she sure as hell wasn't defending herself, she was helping her boyfriend attack the worker. She should be charged with serious offenses.

Yeah, she didn't even have $3 for a bag of chips.

Does the governor have the authority to fire the New York DA?

Even if Bragg refuses to charge her with assault, the fact she brought Simon to the store to confront Alba, and then Simon assaulted him, would make the woman a co-conspirator in Simon’s assault. No doubt, Bragg will ignore that charge as well.

Is her name made public yet, or is Lizzy Borden-eisha still being protected by the media.

Even with ‘stand your ground’, which is not available in New York, that’s not how it works. You can’t pick a fight then ‘defend’ yourself.
