The puppeteer behind the radical prosecutors who have enabled carnage in America’s major cities is no longer in her job after her own staff and the prosecutors she trained accused the white woman of being racist and authoritarian.
Miriam Krinsky, executive director of Fair and Just Prosecution, resigned on September 20, 2024, apparently as a result of a story in The Daily Wire that same day. The resignation has not been previously reported.
After The Daily Wire asked about damning months-old emails in September, Fair and Just Prosecution spokesman Christopher Gray said, “I’ve had a stressful weekend since your email,” but did not say Krinsky had quit. But a newly obtained email shows that hours after the story was published, Krisny wrote an email to staff saying that “After eight years at FJP, I will be moving on.”
“It has been heartening to see a table of 14 elected prosecutors FJP assembled in early 2017 grow to nearly 70 leaders nationwide — individuals I, and FJP, were privileged to have worked with,” she added of the Soros takeover of law enforcement.
The story reported that in April 2024, Sherry Boston, the elected district attorney of DeKalb County, Georgia, accused Krinsky of racism for excluding her from a New York City event, adding that the group had “failed miserably” when it came to diversity. Krinsky replied by disparaging Boston and saying she was excluded from events because of merit, not race. Krinsky appeared to suggest that Boston, a black Democrat, had failed to advance “racial justice” by prosecuting too many crimes.
That led to an uproar from Krinsky’s own staff and others, who began a campaign to oust her, only to face what they said was retaliation. Krinsky had led Fair and Just Prosecution since the group’s inception in 2017. A Daily Wire analysis of archived versions of the Fair and Just Prosecution website shows significant staff turnover. The group lost six of 16 employees in 2020, seven more in 2021, and nine of 22 in 2023.
“The workplace culture under Miriam’s leadership is oppressively authoritarian,” disaffected employees, speaking on condition of anonymity, told The Daily Wire in an email. “Miriam manipulates a predominantly young, minority staff — exploiting their inexperience and the existing racial dynamics within the organization to tighten her grip on power.”
They said that despite Fair and Just Prosecution’s position that police should not be involved in situations that could be handled by social workers, “FJP, backed by Tides, are using law enforcement to retaliate against both current and former employees who have raised concerns about the organization’s practices. Some of these employees were wrongfully terminated and now face legal threats simply for attempting to do the right thing. Disturbingly, the organization has even orchestrated fake wellness checks as a means to weaponize the police—the same police they advocate should be defunded.”
Spokesman Gray said, “Any personnel actions taken by the organization are in full compliance with applicable laws, our anti-harassment policies, and reflect our core values.”
The Soros strategy to install radical progressives in district attorney positions, which in blue areas are often decided in quiet, low-turnout primary elections, relies on the idea that the billionaire would not need to influence entire legislatures to change laws if he could simply implant prosecutors who would ignore them. Mainstream Democrat prosecutors of the past viewed it as unethical to simply ignore entire classes of crimes.
But when a prosecutor misbehaves, there is little that anyone can do. For a full year, for example, The Daily Wire has been seeking emails relevant to Fair and Just Prosecution from Manhattan district attorney Alvin Bragg — who previously prosecuted President Donald Trump — under public records laws. The office has failed to produce them, with an attorney instead sending a letter every 30 days saying that the records will be produced within the next 30 days.
Last August, The Daily Wire reported how, after Soros spent $117 million since 2016 on reshaping America’s justice system, three in 10 Americans now live under a Soros prosecutor. The Fair and Just Prosecution group is the mechanism used to continue to control them after they are elected.
Fair and Just Prosecution had the Soros-backed attorneys sign 33 pledges not to enforce specific laws — including election integrity measures and immigration laws — and attend more than 50 meetings or “convenings,” some of which were “mandatory.” FJP pressed prosecutors to let criminals off the hook if they are black, having them pledge to “reduc[e] racial disparities in case outcomes by at least 20%.”
At the meetings, Soros prosecutors got talking points and marching orders. At one meeting, political consultants told the assembled prosecutors to frame ignoring property crime as “reprioritizing resources” to “solve more murders.” The consultants cited polling that showed this messaging was more popular than simply acknowledging that prosecutors were not prosecuting lesser crimes.
