D.A. Bragg Invests In Upper Manhattan To Combat Intimate-Partner Violence

“Early intervention in intimate-partner violence is key to saving lives,” said District Attorney Bragg. “Our goal is to identify misdemeanor offenses that signal a high risk of escalation to more serious violence and then intervene with urgency and appropriate resources before those situations spiral into serious danger.
