Previous entries in the series have focused on the rogue prosecutor movement; prosecutors in Baltimore, Philadelphia, Chicago, Boston, St. Louis, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Fairfax, Virginia; and U.S. attorneys.
Alvin Bragg has taken his policies directly from the rogue prosecutor movement's required playbook.
Sewell knows, as we have been warning, that cities that have elected rogue prosecutors have seen a dramatic increase in violent crime and crime overall, and her city will look like those others if Bragg acts like the other rogues.
Following in the footsteps of Los Angeles' rogue prosecutor, George Gascon, Bragg sent a memo shortly after taking office to his entire staff detailing his "Key principles" and policies.
As we have detailed in our major research paper on the topic, the rogue prosecutor movement is not shy about its beliefs, which are twofold: the entire criminal justice system is systemically racist, and the criminal justice system must be "Reverse-engineered" to eliminate the racist rot that supposedly infects the entire system.
Crimes You Can Now Commit in NYC. Like Boston's former rogue prosecutor, Rachael Rollins, whom the Biden administration recently elevated to be the U.S. attorney for Massachusetts, and Los Angeles' Gascon, Bragg has announced crimes that his office won't prosecute, even though they remain criminal offenses in the state of New York.
Unlike some elected rogue prosecutors, like Krasner, Bragg was a prosecutor before he was elected.
