MANHATTAN SCANDAL Shock: Felony Charge Vanishes in EX-Senator Case
— Prosecutors in Manhattan have dropped a serious felony charge against former State Senator Richard Hale. He was accused of taking bribes for political favors. The District Attorney’s Office said there was “insufficient evidence” and that Hale’s rights may have been violated after new information suggested prosecutors made mistakes.
Hale served five terms representing Manhattan. He faced conspiracy, wire fraud, and bribery charges that could have put him in prison for years. His lawyers called the dropped charge a victory for fairness and due process.
This case caught national attention and sparked debate about political corruption in New York. Critics argue dropping the charge shows how hard it is to hold powerful politicians responsible.
