EXCERPT:
TACOPINA: "Again, the grand jury proceeding is D.A's proceeding, it's not a joint proceeding. It’s something they use as a mechanism to bring a charge. It’s formality for the most part. We don't know what's going on. But I can tell you, there appears to be chaos in that office right now, as there should be, because the Manhattan District Attorney's Office was once the pinnacle of prosecutor’s office in this country. Now it’s something that's being used as a political tool. And when I see the justice system and a prosecutor’s office being used to weaponize the justice system against an individual, it makes me sick to my stomach. As a former prosecutor, I could never have imagined this, Sean."
