Bragg Remains Silent on Charges for Columbia University Protesters

Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg is infamous for letting bad guys go free while trying to improve his profile by going after Donald Trump.

Right now, everyone wants to know if charges will be brought against pro-Palestine protesters at Columbia.

Thus far, Bragg has been sitting on his hands on the subject.

If you have seen the pictures coming from Columbia and other schools, these protests are hardly peaceful.

They are not quite at the level of the “mostly peaceful” riots after the death of George Floyd, but they are catching up quickly.

Trespassing, threats, and vandalism are taking place, but Bragg has not said a word about the DA’s office's intent to prosecute.

In one instance, a school worker claimed that he was being held hostage by the protesters, so let's add kidnapping to the alleged crimes of these protesters.

Cornell Law School professor William Jacobson stated, “Given his track record and the political nature of the events, I would be surprised if the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office prosecuted the charges in a serious manner.

“The charges are likely to be dropped against most perpetrators and drastically reduced for others under an agreement that would see the charges eventually expunged.

“In New York City, unfortunately, this type of weak prosecution agenda encourages more crime.”

It has come to light that in many of these protests, just as we saw during the George Floyd rioting, it is outside influencers who are traveling to these campuses to get everyone riled up.

At Columbia, police were finally called in to clear the campus, with the school finally threatening to suspend protesters if they did not break the camp.

Pictures of the building that had been taken over were horrific, as was the aftermath of several encampments.

These kids who claim to be for the environment trashed the areas because, apparently, the environment does not matter when you are protesting in support of terrorism.
