D.A. Kenneth Thompson discusses wrongful convictions at Criminal Bar meeting
The Kings County Criminal Bar Association (KCCBA) hosted Brooklyn District Attorney Kenneth P. Thompson at its monthly meeting in Brooklyn Heights on Thursday. The district attorney brought members of his Conviction Review Unit to discuss wrongful convictions in Brooklyn.
“One of the main platforms of my administration is that of one justice,” KCCBA President Michael Farkas said. “I’m seeking to promote closer relationships between all the major stakeholders in the criminal justice system. In this manner we can better our community through collaboration and cooperation.
“D.A. Thompson has been in office for about a year, and I don’t think anybody can debate the significant work that he has done in that time,” Farkas said.
