CNN's Pazmino: D.A. Refusing to Extradite Suspect over Concerns with How Bragg Prosecutes Is Politics over Due Process

On Tuesday's broadcast of CNN's "The Lead," CNN National Correspondent Gloria Pazmino stated that Maricopa County, AZ County Attorney Rachel Mitchell's (R) refusal to extradite Raad Almansoori, a suspect in a killing in New York who is also accused of multiple stabbings in Arizona, due to her concerns with how Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D) handles cases is an example of "how the political conversation has sometimes dominated what should happen during what's essentially the right to due process," and is Mitchell taking "a political position saying that the D.A. here in Manhattan isn't going to properly prosecute the case that this man is accused in."
