Charles Hynes is a screwup

Editorials - Opinions - NY Daily News

NY Daily News jumps on the bandwagon to justifiably blame Charles Hynes for not doing his job to protect and serve the people. Hopefully the black establishment backs someone that is more capable than State Senator John Sampson to run against Hynes in 2009. Paul Wooten who had been a candidate in 2005 seemed more than capable to take over the DA's office from Hynes, and he would not be hindered by the traffic on the Marine Parkway Bridge in the morning since he lives in Fort Greene. Brooklyn needs a new DA in 2009, and the demographics of the Democratic Primary almost ensures that the next DA will be black.

P.S. State Senator John Sampson maybe a good senator and if wanted higher officer he probably should run for Brooklyn Boro President, but for god sakes this man should never be a public prosecutor. I saw him on the campaign trail 2005 he never really could speak in complete sentences, and he advocated that if he were elected as DA he would open grand juries to the public. Opening up grand juries to the public is not what a competent lawyer or law student who has taken Con Law would ever propose, since it is clearly stated in the constitution and precedence of common law.
