Shabby D.A.'s

 


 NY Post

 District attorneys across the Big Apple last year declined to prosecute accused felons at nearly twice the rate of 2019 — letting more than 6,500 suspects off the hook, The Post has learned.

Prosecutors dropped all charges in 16.9 percent of the 38,635 felony cases that were closed in New York City during 2020, according to data compiled by the state Division of Criminal Justice Services.

The year before, that rate was just 8.7 percent and the average for 2016 to 2019 was an even lower 8 percent, the statistics show.

Even though far fewer cases were disposed of last year, the 6,522 defendants whose charges were dropped exceeded the 5,985 who weren’t prosecuted in 2019.

The total number of cases closed in 2020 plunged by a massive 44.1 percent last year amid court closures due to the COVID-19 pandemic — down from 69,119 the year before.

A law enforcement source said there were “a lot of layers to the problem,” including veteran prosecutors retiring or leaving for other jobs and “inexperienced [prosecutors] and cops making it harder to do trials,” as well as the political nature of DAs’ jobs.

 “The DAs are worried about getting re-elected,” the source said.

“Plus, you throw in a bucket of ‘woke’ and no one is getting prosecuted.”

The source also pointed to controversial, recently enacted laws governing the disclosure of evidence to the defense, known as “discovery.”

“Now, if someone takes a plea, you still have to provide the discovery information even though the case is closed,” the source said.

“Before, you didn’t have to. If you DP [decline to prosecute] a case, there is no discovery.”

Any White who harms a criminal BIPOC in self defense will get the book thrown at him though.

While crime skyrockets prosecutions plummet but police salaries and benefits continue to soar, with almost all cops retiring with a six figure pension. Police are needed by the ruling elite to beat up church goers and other people who either won't get the VAXX and or won't salute the pride flag.

When have police beat up church goers(white ones at least) or unvaxed? Or are you just repeat complete nonsense that you heard on Fox News?

I agree. Time to get tough on criminals. Death sentence for theft, speeding,driving through red lights, Jan 6th traitors, murderers, unvaxed and corporate criminals.

And I will say it again. This is what you all voted for. And this just takes into account people that were arrested and charged.
As a police officer here in Queens, most crimes go unreported. Or reported then reclassified (something stolen is now just lost because you have no idea where you saw it last), or my favorite, when the victim is a young white person and the suspect is, well let’s just say might look a little different then them, they refuse to sign a complaint because of their beliefs.
But one of the biggest hurdles is getting witnesses to cooperate. You see a crime, you need to provide ALL of your personal info for the defense. Who would want to do that? I wouldn’t. It’s all backwards these days and no politician is gonna change it because the AOC’s of this city would publicly attack you and your family. So good luck people. Your bed has been made. Enjoy!

I wonder what former police officer Eric Adams thinks about D.A.'s not prosecuting felons and letting them back on the streets.

Oh that's right...he hanging out in the Hamptons with millionaires/billionaires and making sure violent criminals from Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx stay out of prison and be given the freedom to attack and kill people all they want!!!

Officers “took a report” — but that the situation was “not really a police issue.”

We are past the point of calling them LIBERALS .

THEY ARE COMMUNISTS. PERIOD.
They succumbed to "Infiltrate rather than Invasion."

We need to stop being so delicate about it.

If nothing else, it may help wake them up!

Couldn't figure out why the Rs didn't go after that seat? Sliwa? Really? No Masks. But go quick and get that shot, Sliwa? Sounds just like Warren Wilhelm.

Compare Adams 2008 and Adams 2020. Does loosing weight change your skull?
Any photographers out there who can get busy with the right s/w?

I like the police officers comment...and if Tiffany Cabans restorative justice takes root, you will be expected to associate with those who harmed you, gang bangers and sociopaths..

When has AOC attacked someone and their family for reporting a crime?

This is surprisingly true, remember the Matrix:
“These people are so inured, so hopelessly dependent on the system that they will fight to protect it”
Sheeple need corrupt establishment politicians making bad decisions because it’s what they the are trained to accept.

Well you still haven’t explained what liberals have done. Can you call the Q so he can fill in the blanks for you? Sends like you have no clue without a daily top up from Fox.

@“ Looks like wittle Sheep got TRIGGERED at the word, thought, and idea of GOD”

Not really. We’re not sure which god you are on about? Is it the one who wants everyone to yell Jihad every time they see a tv camera. Or is it the one who got Moses and his men to murder and rape little boys? Or is it the god with all those arms and legs?
Please be specific about which God we liberals should be triggered about?

When crime is sanctioned by the criminally insane ruling party and its sheeple voters this is what happens.

But keep on voting (D)!
