Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's chief prosecutor, Meg Reiss, is as leftist as her boss over letting violent criminals and other felons, get out of paying for their crimes. This even included a murderer.

Worse, she bragged about it, and that made Bragg proud to have her on board.
"We know incarceration doesn't really solve any problems," Reiss said during a Peace Institute event in May 2021 [other than to keep innocent people from being victimized by them].
Fox News Digital has previously reported that Reiss said criminals are not "bad dudes" while simultaneously blasting juries for believing police officers facing misconduct allegations deserve the "benefit of the doubt," not unlike Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) saying that President Trump will have the opportunity to prove his innocence.
Reiss described how the Manhattan district attorney helped a murderer get out of jail time for a homicide victim who had very few relatives.
She said a man who was facing a manslaughter charge for killing another person during a violent altercation was able to leave without any prison time, calling it "extraordinary."
"It was an incident between two people that knew each other very well. And it was sort of… a fight that ended up with one person dying and the person who was charged had substance misuse issues and other things. And going through the outcome in the case, it just seemed appropriate for restorative practice rather than a carceral sentence."

It wasn't her relative who was murdered so it was no big deal to let the killer go free. Even more relevant is that the person charged with the crime wasn't Donald Trump.
Reiss also blasted the idea that criminals in New York illegally possessing firearms should amount to jail time. This should only apply to people without criminal records who carry for self defense against the criminals illegally carrying guns.
She said the office has a "gun diversion" program for criminals illegally possessing firearms.

So keep voting for these lunatics who are unaffected by the laws and policies they create. And when it's your loved one who falls victim to these unpunishable crimes, please consider your vote next election. Of course, in Reiss' case, she wasn't elected but selected by Alvin Bragg. Think.
