Hynes seeks special prosecutor to investigate Lopez
DA mentions leader’s support for his campaigns
On Friday, Kings County District Attorney Charles J. Hynes requested a special prosecutor to investigate allegations against embattled Assemblyman Vito Lopez (D-Bushwick/Williamsburg), who recently stepped down from his post as chair of the Brooklyn Democratic Party.
“Press reports concerning the report of the Assembly Standing Committee on Ethics and Guidance to Speaker Sheldon Silver, regarding allegations against Assemblyman Vito Lopez [of sexual improprieties directed at several female members of his staff], did not make clear the county where the alleged acts occurred,” said Hynes.
