Brooklyn DA celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month
The Brooklyn District Attorney’s Office held a Hispanic Heritage Month Celebration that featured a discussion with U.S. Rep. Hon. Adriano Espaillat at Brooklyn Law School on Monday.
The event was considered historic by Acting District Attorney Eric Gonzalez, who is fresh off a primary election win that has him set to be the first Hispanic district attorney in Brooklyn and New York state’s history.
“The people of Brooklyn have spoken in this election and what they have said and asked of us is that we continue to keep and make Brooklyn a safer place in ways that are more fair and more just and that’s what the DA’s Office is going to continue to do,” Gonzalez said.
