He may be the prosecutor who put transit union president Roger Toussaint in jail and won millions in fines but assistant state attorney general James Henly is also a committed subway rider.
Minutes after the Judge Theodore Jones handed down punishment Henly and a fellow state attorney shlepped oversized legal briefcases down the steps of the Borough Hall subway step to the platform of a Manhattan-bound 2/3 trains. Presumably they were headed back to the attorney general’s downtown offices.
His departure went unnoticed by the nearby gaggle of press who were surrounding Toussaint and Al Sharpton. The Reverend, by the way, said he would camp out in front of jail out of solidarity with Roger. The two are also planning a big rally on April 24 when Roger turns himself in to begin his jail sentence.
ADDENUM: Toussaint, according to the NY Post, drives his own union-issued SUV.
