Brooklyn District Attorney Charles "Joe" Hynes has hit back at criticism of his prosecution of Brooklyn man John O'Hara for voting fraud.
O'Hara recently lost an appeal in federal court against his conviction, a legal outcome that has resulted in his being barred from his law practice, not being able to vote in elections or stand for public office.

The case against O'Hara was taken by Hynes's office and the conviction for voter fraud followed no fewer than three trials.

Hynes has been the object of severe criticism in newspapers and a top legal publication for his pursuit of O'Hara on the voting fraud charge.
