DA Alvin Bragg Faces 56 Death Threats Amid Trump Gag Order Controversy
Jun 21, 2024, 02:09 PM
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has been receiving death threats and racial harassment following the conviction of Donald Trump in a hush money trial. Legal experts and Trump himself argue that the gag order imposed by Judge Merchan, which prevents Trump from commenting on jurors, witnesses, or court staff, violates his free speech rights. Despite these arguments, Bragg has urged the court to maintain the gag order, citing Trump's history of inflammatory statements and the threats directed at Bragg and his associates. The New York Police Department has logged 56 actionable threats since April against Bragg and his family. The New York Court of Appeals is being called upon to address the constitutionality of the gag order. New York prosecutors are open to a partial lifting of the gag order now that Trump has been convicted on charges related to the 2016 election.
