TWC News: Garner Family's New Attorney Blasts DA Over Handling of CasePlay now
Civil rights attorney Jonathan Moore, who will now take the lead in the Eric Garner case, joined the family Saturday morning at Reverend Al Sharpton's National Action Network rally.
The long-time attorney is known for representing three of the men who were wrongly convicted in the Central Park jogger rape case.
He will now represent Garner's family in their $75 million lawsuit against the city.
'Do I have confidence in the Staten Island DA? Look, they have a video tape and it's been three months. It's hard to have confidence in a prosecuting authority that takes three months to get an indictment for something that should have been done much quicker. So, at this point I have to say I don't really have much confidence in the Staten Island DA,' Moore said.
The family's previous attorney, Sanford Rubenstein, withdrew from the case Wednesday amid allegations he raped a top official from the National Action Network.
He has denied any misconduct.
Garner died in July after he was placed in an alleged chokehold by police during his arrest.
