Bronx County District Attorney Office

What Bronx County District Attorney Office does

The Bronx County District Attorney Office is the elected prosecutorial authority for Bronx County, New York, serving a population of more than 1.4 million residents under the leadership of District Attorney Darcel D. Clark, the 13th DA and the first woman and first African-American woman elected District Attorney in New York State. The office is organized into five operating divisions — General Counsel, Trial, Special Victims, Investigations, and Strategic Innovations — supported by over 500 professional staff including Assistant District Attorneys, detective investigators, digital forensics analysts, interpreters, and trial preparation assistants. It prosecutes felonies and misdemeanors across homicide, domestic violence, sex crimes, child abuse, financial fraud, public corruption, hate crimes, gun violence, and Rikers Island cases, while also operating a Crime Victims Assistance Bureau providing crisis intervention, advocacy, therapy, and court navigation services.

The office's technology stack includes a Digital Forensic Laboratory that performs forensic examinations of electronic evidence, a Video Laboratory that records crime scenes and prepares video for grand jury and trial use, the BronxCAMS voluntary community camera registration and mapping database (launched 2018, integrating NYPD and NYCHA feeds), and a Crime Strategies Bureau that uses data analytics for performance measurement and policy evaluation. Public-facing products include interactive Data Dashboards and Data Stories publications that report arrests, charging decisions, case outcomes, and demographics. Specialized units such as the Conviction Integrity Bureau, Public Integrity Bureau, Rikers Island Prosecution Bureau, Immigrant Affairs Unit, Economic Crimes Bureau, and Human Trafficking Unit extend the office's functional scope beyond traditional prosecution.

As a publicly funded government entity, the office generates no commercial revenue; its budget is derived from federal, state, and city tax appropriations. All services — prosecution, victim assistance, community programs — are provided free of charge to the public. The office's go-to-market motion is community-led and direct-to-consumer, relying on community engagement, town halls, workshops, youth programs, annual awareness events (5K Run/Walk/Roll Against Domestic Violence, Anti-Gun Violence marches, Child Safety Fair), and a multi-channel digital presence spanning website, X, Facebook, Instagram, newsletters, press releases, and video content. Operational distribution is anchored by the main headquarters at 198 East 161st Street, the Hall of Justice court location at 265 East 161st Street, and a Northeast Bronx satellite for victim services.
