U.S. Attorney Robert Capers introduces himself to Brooklyn legal community
Robert Capers, U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of New York, made an informal introduction to many of his constituents early Thursday morning when he arrested Nassau County Executive Edward Mangano and two others on bribery and fraud charges. Later that day, he more officially introduced himself to the legal community during a Kings County Criminal Bar Association meeting.
“I was born in the Bronx — please don’t hold that against me,” Capers joked.
