Former NYPD Commissioner Bill Bratton criticized Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg on Friday after Bragg’s office released a memo stating that it would stop prosecuting many offenses.
“The DA is effectively handcuffing the police,” Bratton said of Bragg, who took over for District Attorney Cy Vance on Jan. 1. Bragg announced just two days after taking office that he would no longer prosecute certain low-level offenses and misdemeanors unless they accompanied by a more serious charge.
