Default In Manhattan, new DA takes office, lays foundation for next crime wave. Promises to be big.

More crazy libtard thinking. How will any sane American want to live in these liberal crime friendly hellholes like NYC, Philly, San Fran, Baltimore, Chicago?

Manhattan DA to stop seeking prison sentences in slew of criminal cases

Who needs soft-on-crime judges when the district attorney doesn’t even want to lock up the bad guys?

Manhattan’s new DA has ordered his prosecutors to stop seeking prison sentences for hordes of criminals and to downgrade felony charges in cases including armed robberies and drug dealing, according to a set of progressive policies made public Tuesday.

In his first memo to staff on Monday, Alvin Bragg said his office “will not seek a carceral sentence” except with homicides and a handful of other cases, including domestic violence felonies, some sex crimes and public corruption.

.
.
.
Bragg’s memo also detailed the following instructions for prosecutors to reduce charges filed by cops in various cases:

Armed robbers who use guns or other deadly weapons to stick up stores and other businesses will be prosecuted only for petty larceny, a misdemeanor, provided no victims were seriously injured and there’s no “genuine risk of physical harm” to anyone. Armed robbery, a class B felony, would typically be punishable by a maximum of 25 years in prison, while petty larceny subjects offenders to up to 364 days in jail and a $1,000 fine.

Convicted criminals caught with weapons other than guns will have those felony charges downgraded to misdemeanors unless they’re also charged with more serious offenses. Criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree, a class D felony, is punishable by up to 7 years behind bars.

Burglars who steal from residential storage areas, parts of homes that aren’t “accessible to a living area” and businesses located in mixed-use buildings will be prosecuted for a low-level class D felony that only covers break-ins instead of for more serious crimes. Those more serious crimes, class B and class C felonies, would be punishable by up to 25 and up to 15 years in prison respectively.

.
.
.
The moves sparked immediate outrage from cops who said the policies will lead to more crime and shootings.

“Bragg gives criminals the roadmap to freedom from prosecution and control of our streets,” said the head of the NYPD Detectives’ Endowment Association.

“In Bragg’s Manhattan, you can resist arrest, deal -----, obstruct arrests, and even carry a gun and get away with it,” DEA president Paul DiGiacomo said in a prepared statement.

The head of the NYPD’s largest union, the Police Benevolent Association, also expressed “serious concerns about the message these types of policies send to both police officers and criminals on the street.”

“Police officers don’t want to be sent out to enforce laws that the district attorneys won’t prosecute,” PBA president Patrick Lynch said.

“And there are already too many people who believe that they can commit crimes, resist arrest, interfere with police officers and face zero consequences.”

A Manhattan police supervisor said: “The identical platform has not worked out in San Francisco, Chicago, Philadelphia and Baltimore.”

Sounds like NY is going back to the way I remember it as a kid- dirty, filthy, crime-ridden.

I'm expecting the city to be darkened, literally, they are turning off lights downtown.

Which begs the question: why is there a thread about the Manhattan DA in the Pittsburgh forums? This board has become a toxic cesspool dedicated to nothing but the most inflammatory partisan politics. Whether you agree with the sentiment or not, you have to understand that this sort of thing is ultimately bad for the forum.

If you read this, maybe you’ll understand why.

Hopefully, Pittsburgh doesn’t install a social worker as our DA. Like NYC did.

If you think you’re going to get busted with a fake vax card (a felony) at a restaurant in New York City, the best course of action is to pull out a Glock and rob the place (a misdemeanor).

Because the definition of this area is
"The Sandbox is a collection of off-topic discussions. Humorous threads, Sports talk, and a wide variety of other topics can be found here. "

And newsworthy items are interesting topics to some folks. No reason why people can't get informed about current events and discuss them.

This thread in particular points out the risk all cities face by electing far left, Soros backed soft on crime prosecutors. Better people understand that threat to help ensure they keep them out of the places they live, including Pittsburgh

I sure am glad I got into NYC in late 2019, when it was still relatively safe and not a complete Communist hell hole. Who knows if I'll ever be back, now...
