Lawyer: Probe of Hynes's Opponent Aided, Not Ended, Her Political Activity

By JOSEPH GOLDSTEIN

New York Sun
March 15, 2006

A lawyer for the Kings County District Attorney said yesterday that an investigation into Charles Hynes's 2001 political opponent had the effect of encouraging, not ending, the challenger's political activity.

Mr. Hynes's opponent in the 2001 Democratic primary, Sandra Roper, sued Mr. Hynes last year, claiming the district attorney sought retribution by opening an investigation into allegations she stole from a client. Ms. Roper is not the first to allege that Mr. Hynes has used the criminal justice system to instill fear in his political opponents.

Efforts by the city's lawyer for Mr. Hynes, Eamonn Foley, to have the suit dismissed prompted lawyers for both sides to debate Ms. Roper's claims for the first time. In U.S. District Court in Manhattan yesterday, Mr. Foley questioned whether the investigation did indeed discourage her from engaging in politics, as her lawyer, Ezra Glaser, claimed. Mr. Foley asserted that Ms. Roper emerged from the legal battle with a renewed commitment to stay active in politics.
