The Issue: The arraignment of former President Donald Trump for 34 counts of falsifying business records.
Stab someone, and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg will plead it down (“Trumped up,” April 5).
Rape someone, and Alvin will plead it down. Rob someone, and Alvin will plead it down.
Alvin seems to have adopted the revolving-door system of justice: Arrest them and turn them loose. That’s the Alvin way. The only way you can really get into trouble in Manhattan is to disagree with Alvin’s political agenda.
It seems to me that Alvin is unleashing a voracious monster by politicizing the judicial system.
If Alvin doesn’t like your politics, he’ll search his law books until he can find something he can prosecute you for.

Bragg is a disgrace to justice. He allows murderers and thieves to roam the streets unabated but spares no expense to prosecute Trump for what is, at worst, a misdemeanor.
The witch hunt continues.
