Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg Releases Comprehensive Reforms to Deliver Safety and Justice for All 
“I have lived my entire life in Harlem and have seen all sides of the criminal legal system both professionally and personally,” said DA Bragg. “I had a gun pointed at me three by police officers, had a family member live with me after he was released from incarceration, and posted bail for a loved one. And I served as a prosecutor holding accountable corrupt politicians and those who financed large scale drug-trafficking and, just months ago, walked my family through a crime scene on our doorstep."

I applaud Mayor Adams’ leadership, commitment, and focus on guns. We will partner with all who will join us in the urgent tasks of getting drivers of crime off our streets, cutting off the flow of illegal guns, & building up community-based supports for people who are struggling.
Joined with NYPD and community leaders at Harlem vigil to grieve Officer Jason Rivera and pray for Officer Wilbert Mora. We are actively working together with NYPD to hold the shooter accountable to full extent of the law for this horrific act. https://t.co/3uBu2JfD5U
This is a horrible tragedy and our thoughts and prayers go out to the officers, their families and the entire NYPD. The officers who serve and protect us risk their lives every day. Violence against police cannot be tolerated.
