Cyrus Vance Jr. was elected Manhattan District Attorney last night, giving the borough it's first new DA in 35 years. Of course, the reign of prolific Manhattan District Attorney Robert Morgenthau is only ending because the the 90-year-old decided to retire earlier this year (he will to help out with the family farm). Vance, who was Morgenthau's choice to succeed him, told WCBS 2, "I intend to be a strong advocate for public safety, as district attorney. I've spent my entire career working on criminal justice issues, and I'm ready for that challenge." He also recently promised, "Safety on our streets is going to be a very, very important issue for our office."





Leslie Crooker Syder would have been much better than this aging surf dude.
From a distance, she still looks hot.
From a very long distance. She is a walking time bomb. A deranged sexist and an unfit mother.
It's exciting to have our first new DA since 35 years.
"Of course, the reign of prolific Manhattan District Attorney Robert Morgenthau is only ending because the the 90-year-old decided to retire earlier this year (he will to help out with the family farm)."
You mean the one that his father put up as collateral for the Dutch purchase of Manhattan?
this is great but who's going to support PAL?
Good luck trying to get old man smell out of that office.
