Brehm added that those responsible for his son’s death “were brought to justice” even before Bragg was elected.
“Suddenly, the gang assault and murder charges against two of the homicidal maniacs responsible for my son’s death were dropped entirely,” Brehm added. “One was sentenced to 14 months; Alvin Bragg accused her of assaulting him with a shoe. The other was sentenced to seven years. I later learned that Alvin Bragg often drops or downplays dangerous criminals.”
Brehm went on to say that he decided to “use his God-given voice” to be “a voice for the voiceless across America” because he “doesn’t want anyone else to go through the senseless pain” that “other victims” around the country “go through every day.”
“We need justice for victims and we need to hold prosecutors accountable for their dereliction of duty,” Brehm added, slamming “soft on crime prosecutors” like Bragg, Cook County Attorney Kim Foxx and Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascón for turning the country and cities into a “battlefield.”
During the April 2023 crime hearing, several Democrats argued that several witnesses at the hearing were being used as part of a “political ploy” by Republicans. Brame was one of the crime victims at the hearing.
