So if you listen to this program on a regular basis, you know we are following the case of the two police officers in the Bronx who on November 13, 2023, in the middle of the afternoon, we're on a subway, the Freeman Street subway platform, and three thugs jumped them and beat them up. It's on videotape. So that was, again, November 13th, 2023. A year and a half later, this case is still not in court. Hearing today, adjourned to April 8th, time after time, after time, after time, after time. Why? Everybody points the fingers at the other, but I'll tell you this.

The district attorney of the Bronx is named Darcell Clark, 62 years old, first woman to hold that position, okay? Her prosecution record is abysmal. She has the worst conviction and dismissal rate in every major crime category in New York City, the five boroughs. The worst, okay? I have the stats here, and they are astounding. If you beat up somebody rape somebody, kill somebody, the odds are you will not be prosecuted. 60% of murder arrests, okay, are adjudicated and get guilty. That means 40% of murder arrest, no. and 70, it's 76% that get prosecuted under Alvin Bragg and Manette.

So she's done 16% in the Bronx, this woman. She has rejected 172 rape cases, 51 sex abuse arrests. All right, it's unbelievable. So these guys know this, and their lawyer, court appointed, of course. And they're out, they're out. They're not being held. These guys who allegedly beat up the cops, and they did beat them up because we have it on video tape. And now they could go in and plead the Sixth Amendment.

Okay, the Sixth Amendment says that all criminal prosecutions, the cues shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial by an impartial jury of the state. Well, this is not speedy. It's a year and a half. It's on videotape. And now we got another adjournment until April 8th. Now, the prosecution in the Bronx just called us and said, well, this is it. This is it.

Now the next time, we're going to get it on the court calendar. And these guys can run at any minute. If they're facing prison time, but they're not probably. Even if they plead guilty, the DA, Darcel, close. Mark's going to give him a deal. So, where do you go? The police union's not making a big deal out of it. Have you seen it, heard it? I haven't. I mean, these are two cops. And one of the guys who wailed on him, they didn't even catch him. He's gone. They got two. One got away. So if your police officers are physically assaulted and nothing happens to the bugs that do

it, what do you think you have? And this is the crux of New York City's problems. We are not safe because our justice system is corrupt across the board. It's corrupt. And there are many reasons why. And part of it is that people who vote for DAs are voting for Ms. Clark. They don't care that she doesn't prosecute aggressively. They don't care that 40% of the murderer race in the Bronx never go to court. They don't care. Well, what do you care about? If it's your kid, your wife, your husband, your mom, your dad, you don't care? That's the truth. People get the government they deserve. Now, there are very good people in the Bronx who know this is ridiculous, but they're outnumbered. And that's the way democracy works.

the most votes wins. And I'm here to provide you information to turn the tide in New York City and state against this permissive, soft-on-crime trend that has put all of us in danger. And I don't know whether I'm going to be successful. I just don't know.
