“As we learned this morning of the horrendous attack at a Hanukkah party in Monsey in Rockland County last night, I have reached out to Jewish leaders here in Westchester to express our deep concern and extend our support to our Jewish community. As always, we condemn such violence anywhere. Hate has no place here. My office is also in contact with New York State Police and other law enforcement authorities. We will continue to monitor the situation as the facts unfold.”

 In compliance with the Rules of Professional Conduct, Rule 3.6, you are advised that a charge is merely an accusation and that a defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
