Self-defense isn't a crime: It's time for Manhattan to ditch its DA

It’s at this point that Alba takes a knife off a nearby shelf and stabs Simon. The two continue to fight, falling off camera, until Alba comes back into frame — his arm wounded, bleeding, perhaps because he was stabbed by Simon’s girlfriend. A bloody knife in his hands.

“He was cornered in,” Alba’s daughter, Yulissa, tells The Post. “As you can see in the video, he was cornered in, and when he saw himself getting taken outside, he thought his life was being threatened and he defended himself.”

And not just threatened. Simon assaulted him.

But in Bragg’s world, Alba is being way overcharged with murder in the second degree, and locked up on $250,000 bail.
