Bronx DA Darcel Clark told a cautionary tale to justify rolling back New York’s discovery laws.

Court records show her story wasn’t true.

Thank you for holding the line to maintain automatic discovery and prevent wrongful convictions! #ProtectKaliefsLaw.

New Yorkers: Call your lawmakers at 516-916-7076 or fill out our form and urge them to protect Kalief's Law today. Repealing discovery reform means more wrongful convictions, coerced pleas, and injustice. https://t.co/eVqluAcOtq

"If the discovery laws that exist today had been in place in 1988, there's a high likelihood I wouldn't have been convicted—or spent 6,338 days behind bars," said @xoner8ed.

At a state hearing about discovery, Bronx DA Darcel Clark claimed cases get dismissed because defense attorneys are gaming the system.

It can't be repeated enough.

"Pretrial" means the person hasn't been found guilty yet.

The Governor is holding up the budget in order to find ways to lock up even more people who haven't been found guilty.

Rollback of reform, whether bail or discovery, means more people at Rikers, more people wrongfully convicted, and all of us less safe.

So thankful for the relentless advocates and legislators like these who are refusing to back down to fear-mongering. #norollbacks

Gov. Hochul has proposed changes to discovery reform in the 11th-hour of budget negotiations. The changes would no doubt result in more coerced guilty pleas and wrongful convictions. This is not the future I want for New York State. My full statement:

[Tess Cohen @TessMCohen]

I am appalled that Bronx DA Clark is a key driver of Gov. Hochul's rollbacks to discovery reform. These changes would deprive accused New Yorkers of their right to a speedy trial with discovery, pressuring them to plead guilty rather than suffer deadly conditions at NYC jails.

My statement on reports of Governor Hochul's proposed discovery reform rollbacks:

[ajjack.bsky.social @AJJackNY]

We see you @ManhattanDA @BronxDAClark @BrooklynDA pushing clandestine changes to the laws requiring sharing evidence you have w/ the person you are accusing. Gross politics, based on no actual trend,but a need to claw back to the days of the blindfold. https://t.co/9l4C9M8m8C

Discovery reform removed the blindfold. @GovKathyHochul and prosecutors want to put it back on. It’s outrageous @NYSA_Majority @NYSenDems must reject these efforts.

“Judges already have wide discretion to set bail or remand, and eliminating the ‘least restrictive’ standard in existing statute erodes the purpose of bail and would only condemn more of our Black and Latinx clients to suffer pretrial incarceration.”

None of this is needed and driven by fear-mongering and politics. @CarlHeastie @AndreaSCousins hold the line. You know that is the right thing to do.
