2024 Annual Report 
In the Manhattan D.A.’s Office, we work hard every day to advance public safety. In 2024, we continued to drive down gun violence by holding shooters accountable, cracking down on ghost guns, and investing in community-based prevention. Our Special Victims Division expanded services for survivors and took on challenging cases of sexual assault, domestic violence, and human trafficking. In a year when reports of antisemitic and other hate crimes increased nationwide, we worked with partners in Albany to strengthen New York’s hate crimes law and initiated a record number of hate crimes prosecutions.
