“I have worked with Judge Green and am pleased to support his appointment by Governor Hochul as the next Monroe County District Attorney. Judge Green’s dedication to fairness and upholding the rule of law will serve him well in this important public safety role. After the erosion of trust in the District Attorney’s office that has unfolded over the past couple years, it is my hope that this will be an opportunity for Monroe County to reset and rebuild the community’s faith in this vital office.”
