Since his memo bars prosecutors from seeking sentences of life without parole, if you can\u2019t seek a sentence of life without parole, can you be on Team Public Safety?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, you can,\u201d Adams stated. \u201cI like Alvin; I believe he\u2019s a former prosecutor un the U.S. Attorney\u2019s office. He was a great prosecutor; I believe that he\u2019s going to be a good district attorney, and I\u2019m going to sit down and have a conversation with him as we build out what we need to do around public safety so that we\u2019re all on the same page. And so I think that he\u2019s focused on doing that and I think he\u2019s on Team Public Safety. Team Public Safety is not only handcuffs; Team Public Safety is also ending the pipeline that turns people into career criminals based on certain actions. And I want to understand what he\u2019s doing and I\u2019m looking forward to sitting down and speaking with him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bragg\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.manhattanda.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Day-One-Letter-Policies-1.03.2022.pdf\">memo<\/a> stated:<\/p>\n<p><em>The Office will not seek a carceral sentence other than for homicide or other cases involving the death of a victim, a class B violent felony in which a deadly weapon causes serious physical injury, domestic violence felonies, sex offenses in Article 130 of the Penal Law, public corruption, rackets, or major economic crimes, including any attempt to commit any such offense under Article 110 of the Penal Law, unless required by law. For any charge of attempt to cause serious physical injury with a dangerous instrument.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Regarding sentencing, it added:<\/p>\n<p><em>When seeking a carceral sentence, the following rules apply, absent exceptional circumstances:<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>For a determinate sentence, the Office will request a maximum of 20 years.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>For an indeterminate sentence other than one with a maximum of life, the Office will request no more than a maximum of 20 years, absent exceptional circumstances.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>For an indeterminate sentence with a maximum of life, the Office will request no more than a minimum of 20 years, unless required by law.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The Office shall not seek a sentence of life without parole.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>In exceptionally serious cases such as homicides where lengthy periods of incarceration are justified, ADAs shall consider the use of restorative justice as a mitigating factor in determining the length of the sentence, only when victims or their loved ones consent.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
