Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and his team have arrested former President Donald Trump, while some of NYC’s worst criminals still roam the streets.
New Yorkers who survived the city during the pandemic remember the long months when Bragg’s office became a revolving door for career criminals who hit up the streets in broad daylight and had many residents fearing the subways.
While Bragg’s office was preparing to indict Trump, he let violent reoffenders continue to wreak havoc.
In August, Mayor Eric Adams revealed that the same 10 criminals made up nearly 500 crimes and that 60 percent of them were still roaming the streets at that time.
Adams, who promised New Yorkers he would crack down on crime that had risen during the pandemic, criticized him, as well as State Governor Kathy Hochul.

Although crime is currently the same rate as last year, many New Yorkers remember the times during the pandemic where crimes were rampant and left many in fear
In February 2022, Bragg walked back a little on his policies, sending out a memo that made it clear to all his staff that any crime involving a firearm would be prosecuted as a felony — reversing the stance he had taken just a month before.
Although crime is currently at the same rate as the same time last year, felony assault continues be heightened at 8.5 percent. Despite murder and robbery being down, 84 homicides and more than 3,500 robberies have occurred this year in the Big Apple.
As Bragg’s office focused on indicting Trump, these career criminals ran the streets of New York, repeatedly terrorizing citizens and wreaking havoc.
