Eric Adams says DA candidate Alvin Bragg’s views on public safety ‘no different’ than his
NY Post
Democratic mayoral candidate Eric Adams said Saturday there was little difference on criminal justice issues between him and progressive Manhattan District Attorney candidate Alvin Bragg — who has vowed not to prosecute a raft of offenses if he’s elected.
“You may look at our new district attorney and his concepts of how he wants to use that office to deal with public safety, to deal with crime. It’s no different than mine,” said Adams alongside Bragg at the Rev. Al Sharpton’s National Action Network in Harlem. “He may take one street, I may take another, but the destiny is the same.” Adams — a former NYPD captain running on a law-and-order platform that includes increasing policing — and one-time federal prosecutor Bragg won the Democratic nominations for their respective offices this month and are expected to glide to victory in the general election in November.More Related News
