New York Gov. Hochul, Manhattan DA Bragg meet as crime crisis escalates
Fox News
Bragg is one of many Democratic district attorneys around the country who have announced or enacted policies critics say amount to decriminalizing many violations and favoring offenders over victims.
The two Democrats released statements after their meeting.
"My highest priority is protecting the safety of New Yorkers," Gov. Hochul said. "I met with Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg today, and we had a productive conversation. I reiterated my belief that safety and justice must go hand in hand. I will continue to work with all of our district attorneys, Mayor Adams, the NYPD and every New Yorker who is working to restore our sense of security and enforce our laws."
