A Current Look at Prosecution in Ulster County
– a joint meeting with the League of Women Voters Mid-Hudson

Here is a chance to learn about the state of prosecution in Ulster County.
David Clegg will present and answer questions.

During Clegg’s campaign, the League of Women Voters Mid-Hudson hosted a candidate forum to discuss what would make his tenure as a DA impactful to our judicial system. There was a great deal of public focus on the Bail Reform legislation and how it would be interpreted by the court and put into effect with the participating police departments and sheriff’s office. During the tight election, League members were witness to the ballot recounts. This program is an opportunity to check in now and see how this first year saw theory put into practice, to learn about who is collaborating in making change, and what are the hurdles and opportunities in the justice system that citizens should better understand.
