A lawyer alleges that Manhattan District Attorney Alvin
Bragg could be in legal trouble and his career in jeopardy following a
"damaging press conference" he gave after impeaching former President
Donald Trump.
In a Substack article, Daniel R. Street made a case against
Bragg, alleging that he improperly skewed the case against the former president
ahead of a trial later this year that indicated it was a major ethics violation
that could lead to disbarment in normal circumstances.
“There are rules and ethical obligations placed on
prosecutors, even though many Americans are unaware of these rules. For
example, did you know that prosecutors are supposed to protect a defendant's
right to a fair trial? Did you know that prosecutors are supposed to seek
justice, not just convictions? Or that prosecutors are not supposed to make
prejudicial public comments to the media about a defendant's credibility,
character, or reputation or comment on the defendant's guilt or innocence? Did
you know that prosecutors should not include unnecessary and irrelevant
scandalous allegations in charging documents? Street's piece begins.
