Statement from NYGOP Chairman Nick Langworthy on Manhattan DA Bragg Dropping Jose Alba’s Murder Charges

July 19, 2022 

“Jose Alba is an innocent man and this is great news, however he never should have been prosecuted in the first place. Mr. Alba was defending his own life in a violent, unprovoked attack and was treated worse than the criminals who perpetrated it. The only reason radical DA Bragg is dropping the charges is because he faced immense pressure from Lee Zeldin and others who put a giant spotlight on this gross miscarraige of justice. He still needs to be fired, and that will happen on Day One of a Zeldin-Esposito Administration.”
