DA Gonzalez dismisses all prostitution-related warrants
From brooklyneagle.com
Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez on Friday announced that he is moving to vacate open bench warrants related to prostitution and loitering for the purposes of prostitution — charges his office no longer prosecutes. The first batch of 262 warrants dating back to 2012 were vacated last week and their underlying cases were dismissed, with older ones planned for dismissal at a future date.
Gonzalez also called on legislators to repeal the loitering for the purposes of prostitution law and to expunge old prostitution-related convictions.
