Rose and Brooklyn DA announce PPE donation by Axon to protect staff
U.S. Rep. Max Rose, Kings County District Attorney Eric Gonzalez and Richmond County District Attorney Michael McMahon announced a major donation from Axon Enterprise, Inc. that includes thousands of personal protective equipment (PPE) to protect Brooklyn and Staten Island staff in the DA’s office
Axon, a company which develops connected public safety technologies for law enforcement agencies, donated 25,000 blue medical masks, 4,000 pairs of gloves, and 175 gallons of hand sanitizer.
“In order to bring our courts and justice system back online, those on the front lines of our justice system need to have the protection and equipment necessary to protect themselves as well as victims and witnesses of crimes.” Rose said. “As someone who worked in a district attorney’s office, I’ve seen first-hand how important it is for investigators and prosecutors to be on the ground and at the scene to ensure victims are heard and justice is served. We’re all very grateful to Axon’s generous donation to ensure that work will be able to continue safely.”
