    It’s official. The Manhattan DA had charged a 28 year old Black man with a Class D violent felony—assault on a police officer—for yelling into a megaphone. Mandatory minimum 2 years in prison. Max 7. Just one more reason to finally vote Cy Vance out this year.https://twitter.com/elizaorlins/status/1292221462326255616 …

    Update: this case was written up by the Manhattan DA’s office as a violent felony. Assault in the 2nd degree carries a penalty of up to 7 years in state prison. pic.twitter.com/V1X1iyCSw7

        By “this year,” I meant in 2021. The race is already in full swing. Sorry for any confusion.

        Scott Hechinger Retweeted Jake Offenhartz

        At arraignments, the DA’s office dropped the felony to a misdemeanor—Assault in the third degree. If there hadn’t been this attention, that *never would have happened. The DAs office wrote the complaint hours earlier. Outside of court advocacy matters.https://twitter.com/jangelooff/status/1292215086732386304?s=21 …https://twitter.com/jangelooff/status/1292215086732386304 …

        Jake Offenhartz @jangelooff
        Ingram's charge was reduced to third degree assault at arraignment and he was released without bail. A spokesperson for the Manhattan DA called the NYPD's actions "extraordinary" and "disproportionate to the alleged offense." But they're still prosecuting. https://twitter.com/Gothamist/status/1292214272580354048?s=20 …

        Clearly overcharged by a mile. But do you condone this behavior? Or are you satisfied seeing New York disintegrate into mayhem and lawlessness?

        It looks like it was reduced at arraignment per webcrims!

        Only here to add my abhorrence. And that, as a resident of Schenectady County, I infer from ‘the county and state of New York’ that the Manhattan DA does not believe any other county in the state exists?

        "Manhattan" = New York County. "the County and State of New York" is being used correctly.

        from my experience it's been the policy of @ManhattanDA to also bring non-criminal cases into municipal criminal court in violation of right to indictment in all criminal cases. I should know. I've had multiple cases thrown out just by asking for an indictment from grand jury.
