@DARollins is 100% right on all of this. (Standalone resisting arrest charges have always bothered me. They beg the question of what were you arresting me for in the first place.)

On Monday, Attorney General Bill Barr attacked the new wave of reform prosecutors. But he reserved his greatest vitriol for Boston DA Rachael Rollins’ attempt to address police misconduct by declining to prosecute a large number of resisting arrest cases.

Ken Thompson was a dear friend who made Brooklyn a national leader in criminal justice reform from his first day in office. The causes he championed—ending racial disparities, demanding one standard of justice, conviction review —are top priorities for me as Manhattan’s next DA.

Fifteen months ago, Alvin Bragg took office as Manhattan District Attorney amid rising crime in New York City and across the country. Since then, Alvin has worked tirelessly to deliver the safety we need and the fairness we deserve. Today, we are seeing progress.

At the end of the day, I’m a guy from Harlem who grew up fighting the system. And I’ve never stopped. #JusticeCantWait #JusticeForAll

It’s through this lens that I’ve pursued this work. As Chief Deputy Attorney General of NY State, I oversaw a staff of 1200+ people delivering progressive change. I led the investigation into stop and frisk. I didn’t just sue Donald Trump and the Trump Foundation—I won.
