Trump hush money prosecutor flooded with racist harassment and death threats

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has been flooded with racist harassment and death threats after his office led a successful prosecution of former President Donald Trump.

Per the New York Daily News, hundreds of hateful messages have poured in since a New York City jury found the ex-president guilty of falsifying business records in an effort to hide hush money payments to porn actress Stormy Daniels, to influence the 2016 election.

The content of the messages ranges from racial slurs, including the N-word, to death threats, including words like “Savage […] primate, F**king […] rapist” and “GORILLA.”

Bragg, who is leading prosecutions against Harvey Weinstein and Steve Bannon, was elected as DA in 2021 and launched a case against Trump last year. After the jury verdict, Bragg told reporters that he simply “did [his] job.”

Bragg was left out of a gag order in the case, which shielded jurors as well as key witnesses, leading Trump to lash out against the prosecutor several times during his historic criminal trial.

“It’s Alvin Bragg’s fault. Alvin Bragg does nothing. He goes after guys like Trump who did nothing wrong,” Trump said back in April, per CNN. “There are hundreds of murderers all over the city, they know who they are and they don’t pick them up. They go after Trump.”

Bragg’s office now seeks to add the prosecution to the gag order, as the Daily News reports that prosecutors handed over 89 threats of violence to the New York Police Department.

A Utah man was killed last year in a federal law enforcement search after making graphic death threats toward Bragg on Truth Social, posting that he was “waiting in the courthouse parking garage” with a firearm, in addition to a deluge of threats against President Joe Biden and others.
