During the ongoing trial involving former President Donald Trump, District Attorney Alvin Bragg has been at the center of attention. Bragg, who took office just over two years ago, has faced criticism from Trump's team, with Trump himself making personal attacks against him. Despite the pressure, Bragg has remained focused on the case, which includes 20 witnesses and substantial documentary evidence.
When Bragg ran for office, he promised to address the issue of two systems of justice, one for the wealthy and powerful, and another for everyone else. The decision to charge Trump was based on the evidence presented, rather than political considerations, according to Bragg's close friend and former colleague.
