| Collapse all
- Manhattan can be safe once again both above and below ground. I am committed to reversing the soft-on-crime policies that have failed this borough and have created a sense of fear and have eroded public safety.
- We must do better as a borough to clear cases brought before us and keep criminals off the streets. High case dismissal rates must be stopped. This has been partially attributed to the onerous Discovery laws, but that ignores the fact that a district attorney's office with more than a thousand employees can't hand over case material in a timely manner. This is unacceptable and will be a key focus of my tenure as District Attorney.
- Hate crimes are a scourge of every city--and they have been increasing in frequency. I am committed to protecting every Manhattanite, regardless of age, race, gender, religion, or any other distinguishing feature. This means ramping up resources for investigating and prosecuting hate crimes, and making a guarantee that those crimes will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
I also worked as an assistant embalmer at a funeral home in the Bronx part-time on the weekends. I have epic stories from this job, too.
