New York State Fraternal Order of Police's 20,000 Members Back Jonathan Sennett for Ulster County District Attorney
The New York State Fraternal Order of Police, the oldest and largest association of law enforcement professionals with over 20,000 statewide, has endorsed Jonathan Sennett for Ulster County District Attorney.
"As police professionals who most experience and witness the trauma and effects of criminal behavior upon our fellow citizens, we understand, all too well, the significance of dedicated public servants as you who possess the courage and compassion to promote the confidence in our government and courts," said Charles J. Caputo, president of the New York State Fraternal Order of Police Empire State Lodge.
"This endorsement is proof that members of law enforcement agree with my stance on tough prosecution. Drug dealers, gang members and anyone who commits violent, offensive or criminal acts against another person in Ulster County will face tough and appropriate prosecution," said Sennett, the Democratic and Working Families candidate.
Sennett's crime fighting and prosecuting platform includes prosecuting cases more efficiently and effectively, which involves sending an assistant district attorney to the scene of major crimes. "This will mean reviewing evidence and talking to witnesses with the goal of bringing stronger cases into the courtroom," said Jonathan Sennett.
Sennett has five years experience as a prosecutor in the Bronx as well as five years experience as a defense attorney in the Hudson Valley. "I believe I have the most relevant and current experience of all of the candidates for this office." said Sennett.
Sennett has also been endorsed by U.S. Senator Charles Schumer, U.S. Senator Hillary Clinton, Governor Eliot Spitzer, New York State Assemblyman Kevin Cahill and Ulster County Legislator Tracey Bartels. Other endorsements include: Hudson Valley Area Labor Federation, CSEA Local 856 and SEIU Local 200 United.
