The progressive prosecutor of the Manhattan district, Alvin Bragg, is criticized by his opponent of the GOP, Maud Maron, for policies which, according to him, give criminals a “free prison card”, contributing to a massive increase in display and crime organized in the largest American city.

This occurs after the leaders of the retail industry testified Tuesday before the Senate judicial committee on the spectacular increase in retail theft organized in recent years.

According to the most recent data in the National Retail Federation, retailers have declared an increase of 93% of the average number of flight incidents on display per year in 2023 compared to 2019, and an increase of 90% of the loss in dollars due to the display flight during the same period. The study also indicated that the retailers interviewed saw a 26% increase in flight incidents on average from 2022 to 2023.

The NRF report said that the display flight has become a problem that retailers across the country are faced with the “daily”.

The report indicated that the people interviewed experienced an average of 177 flight incidents per day in 2023; However, this number has increased to more than 1,000, according to the retail sector. The report scored New York as the second city most affected by retail crime organized in 2024.

Maron, a former democratic public defender, who is now presented for the Manhattan district prosecutor as a republican, told Fox News Digital that the “wave of display flight” was “not surprising”.

“Shoulder thieves, legislators, have received the message: you can do so, and you will not go to prison,” said Maron, adding, “the money out of money that Alvin Bragg has issued for three and a half years is not subtle.”

“”Five years ago, 10 years ago, if you were going to a store and throw a bunch of retail goods in your bag and go out right in front of the security goalkeeper and just in front of the cashiers, you would be arrested. And if you’ve done it more than once, you end up going to prison, “she said.” Now maybe someone will call the police; Maybe someone won’t do it. Maybe the police will stop you; Maybe they won’t. Because everyone knows at the end of the line, the prosecutor will not continue the case. “”

Maron said that when Bragg had taken office in January 2022, he published one day one day which “explained that there were only categories of whole crimes that he was not going to continue”.

“Alvin Bragg ran as a progressive prosecutor supported by George Soros, and his progressive criminal justice policies of implementation mean that he is trying to keep as many people in prison as possible. He tries to continue as many people as possible, and he then continued.” You can see that there are no consequences. I will have no problems if I go to this store and remove all the clothes from a shelf and go out with them in broad daylight without even hiding my face. I can do it and get away with it. This is why we see a wave. “

“Actions have consequences, they do not do so. And in New York of Alvin Bragg, the flight has no consequences,” she said.

In response, Richard Fife, spokesperson for Bragg’s campaign, has challenged Maron’s point of view on the report, saying that “although there is much more to do, in the past two years, NYPD statistics report that the burglary is down 11%, the flight is down 8%, the big lacin is down 11%and that the murder is down 35%.”

“The perennial candidate Maud Maron, who recently lost her campaign for the School Board, distorts once again and misleading to hide her lack of qualifications,” said Fife.

He said that “when he was experienced, the prosecutor Alvin Bragg took up his duties as Manhattan Da in January 2022, NYC – like almost all cities – was still in shock from the tip of the Covid national crime”.

“Alvin brought together business owners, security forces and community organizations to stop the increase in display and targeted recurrences, organized crime rings have continued stolen goods and better coordination with local businesses and NYPD,” he said.

For his part, Maron retaliated that “if Alvin Bragg was half as good to continue the flight of detail because he is in picking statistics, New Yorkers would not have to ask the security to unlock a stick of $ 6 of deodorant just to spend the day.”

“Bragg can indicate the figures of the NYPD sorted on the aspect everything he wants, but New Yorkers live the reality: more closed windows, more flight with cheeky display and more fear for workers who are simply trying to make trips or shopping,” she added. “You do not need a spreadsheet to find out the Alvin Bragg’s criminal coodding note has transformed each store owner into a duck seated for the criminals he has embraced. You just have to walk in a pharmacy or speak to a Bodega owner.”
