Albany New York DA realizes Soros wrong on crime
NY Post: George Soros-backed DA realizes that soft-on-crime ‘reforms’ are a failure … “No meaningful action has been taken to address bail reform and ‘raise the age,’ which have demonstrably [driven rising] crime in our most vulnerable neighborhoods,” Soares declared. “At what number will the body count be enough to prompt action?” Actually, it’s worse than that.
