Alvin Bragg drops all charges against Columbia's pro-Hamas vandals who took custodians hostage

More junk justice from America's most politicized district attorney.

One thing most people can agree on is that you don't trash university buildings, and you don't take custodians hostage.

But Alvin Bragg is not like most people. While he spent millions prosecuting President Trump on charges of his own invention and pontificated about the law applying equally to everyone, he kind of had other ideas about Jew-hating pro-Hamas vandals who took over a building at Columbia University this past spring, trashed it with thousands of dollars of property damage, and took three custodians hostage.

According to the New York Post:

Nearly all the protesters charged with storming and occupying Columbia University’s campus during heated anti-Israel demonstrations won’t face criminal charges, Manhattan prosecutors announced Thursday — drawing outrage from law enforcement and Jewish advocates.

District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office dismissed cases against 31 of 46 people charged with trespassing in the Ivy League school’s Hamilton Hall after a dramatic April 30 NYPD raid rounded up protesters on the Morningside Heights campus.

Prosecutors largely cited lack of evidence, such as security video footage, that could tie the students or staff to the building takeover for leaving them free and clear without even a slap on the wrist.

The dismissals quickly drew fury from rank-and-file NYPD officers, higher education officials and Jewish leaders who spoke with The Post.

Alvin Bragg got his brains from a rotting can of garbage. The can has a higher IQ than Bragg. Same goes for his ethics. He has none.
