That’s the way it is now. A statement like that is designed as cover for her being able to dismiss and nol-process cases, going forward. And, with that caseload, there’s no way she’ll be able to maintain that type of tempo. Not possible. I’ve seen it, firsthand.
It’ll be a lot of ADAs reviewing a case, telling the officers to downgrade charges to misdemeanors. If it an arrest gets downgraded to a misdemeanor it is much easier for the DAs Office to kick it down to the State/Magistrate court that hears those cases and then, tosses them like trash. Seen it happen.
I’ve seen it get so bad that on police reports, there was a block where you said what happened....victim shot...victim punched in face....victim robbed at gunpoint. For a brief period, we were told not to fill in that block. What they were doing was reading our reports so they could water down what happened. So...a major ass-whooping with severe injuries would be listed as an assault. You wouldn’t know the specifics unless you read the details.
She’s basically going to recruit SJW lawyers, who think the way she does and they will become the Prosecutor, Jury and Judge. Probably not one of them living in the areas that will be the most affected by these policies.
Emperor Cuomo is having his wish of a Conservative free New York come true. His tax base is slowly but surely escaping. It’s outrageous what is going on in this state!
Is Katz a SOROS DA? Is there a list? Please reply if you have info, it’s important.
Fear not. You’ll always have FR for gallows humour. :)
Wish I could leave the state too.
Just not in the finances or ability at the moment.
FWIW, today marks two weeks since Barnard College Freshman Tessa Majors was stabbed to death during a robbery by middle schoolers. The cops have one accomplice in custody. Two others, including the murderer himself still run free. NYPD seems to know who these kids are but for whatever reason, hasn’t picked them up yet.
The Soft Pillows or The Comfy Chair?
Lovely. Because going soft on thugs is always such a success.
There’s the ideal and then there’s what really happens. Your analysis is going to be what really happens.
I’m guessing she’ll make an exception for “weapons violations” and “hate crimes.”
