Thompson New Bklyn DA
Congratulations to Ken! This is the start of a new era, and we all wish him the best as he begins his new job. There is much good in the Brooklyn DA’s office. There are many hardworking professional men and women there. Also in his 23 year tenure as DA, Joe Hynes implemented several innovative programs, such as alternative sentences for drug offenders. Yet there can be no doubt that the office will benefit from the fresh leadership that Mr. Thompson will bring. I believe all of us in the criminal defense community welcome him and look forward to working with him.
