Good Trouble: Your good trouble today is to contact the Attorney General of New Jersey, Matt Platkin, and have him look into code 3.12 Malicious Prosecution (Prior Criminal Proceeding) in the case of Mayor Ras Baraka. You can use the email dcjtipline@njdcj.org.
Let him know you think Alina Habba has violated 3.12 by arresting and then dropping the case against Mayor Baraka, and that her actions satisfy the elements of malicious prosecution action based upon a prior criminal proceeding.
