Hilarious.
Certainly no one ever tried and convicted by these prosecutors would ever resent the fact, and attempt to seek retribution. After all, they were rehabilitated by their incarceration.
Eventually, political correctness will turn around and bite the hand that feeds. I eagerly await such occurrences.

Missed it by that much
Pretty good article I thought. Seems like they are protected by the NY law quoted. Unfortunately, unless they've been a victim, the prosecutors are likely entirely in agreement with the policy. If it were me, I'd buy as many guns as possible and then sue the living bejesus out of them. Rather than retire on the award (assuming it would be substantial), I think I'd donate it all to SAF. That'd stick in NYC's craw quite nicely.

People will have guns regardless of whether or not they are "allowed".

Same office that wrongfully prosecuted several gun shops because they were telling customers how to work the law to do legal things with an AR (collapsible stock glued in place, etc). They also lost a multi million dollar lawsuit by another gun shop a few years ago for wrongful prosecution. All this under DA Rice's leadership, IIRC she just took McCarthy's seat.

The policy is beatable , but doing so would have a predictable effect on one's career path. What we/ SAF needs is an ADA that has put in his intended time with the DA, and is otherwise planning to leave to go into private practice, who also happens to be either C&R holder or handgun hunter.
Maybe these attorneys should get a good lawyer... oh wait.

They would probably be a good enough lawyer themselves. They would just have to plan on leaving the DA office the day after winning. There are enough lawyers who work for DA for a few years to gain experience, improve resume, and make contacts, with intention of winding up in private practice, it isn't a streatch to have someone willing to rock boat and split.
I'm wondering how long this policy will last
This is the point that grinds my gears, no sane lawyer should think this is constitutional, yet they puke it out ....without fear. There should be harsh penalty for intentionally alienating an inalienable right.
Their boss doesn't want them sympathizing with "the enemy" (in NYS that means law-abiding gun owners).
Plus as broad as their prohibitions are on handgun ownership now I'd imagine the DA is afraid of the publicity when one of his prosecutors goes to see a shrink for job-related stress and gets his guns seized.

1. If they want to prohibit firearms on Nassau County Property, I guess that is their right. The safety and comfort of staff, victims, and witnesses can be accomplished by that (using their words, not agreeing)
2. The ADA must give up his own safety and comfort while at home and may not be able to defend himself or his family from those that they have prosecuted.
Yup, sounds like NY to me.

As far as I'm concerned, what's good enough for the goose is good enough for the gander.
