Kathy Hochul: “What are they thinking?”

As New York State’s 57th Governor, I look forward to working together to rebuild our communities and continue to move our great state forward.

I felt it necessary to appoint a special prosecutor because I had lost faith in the Tompkins County DA’s ability.

We have driven down crime to historic lows, especially violent crimes like shootings and murders, and that didn't come easy.

We expect federal authorities to provide a full and transparent accounting of the circumstances surrounding this incident.
