Newark Mayor Sues Alina Habba For MA’AM, DO YOU EVEN LAW?

On March 21, Mayor Ras Baraka walked out of the federal courthouse in Newark a free man. After filing a preposterous criminal trespass complaint against the mayor for briefly coming onto the grounds of an ICE detention center, New Jersey’s acting US Attorney Alina dropped the claim just two weeks later “for the sake of moving forward.” Instead, she opted to charge Rep. LaMonica McIver for assaulting ICE agents as they tried to arrest Mayor Baraka.
