CLOSED CLASH — Black police organization to host debate between city state’s attorney candidates
WILL BE OPEN TO MEDIA ONLY, NOT TO THE PUBLIC
The fight for Baltimore's top prosecutor’s job will shift into high gear next week, when the
city’s minority police organization hosts a debate between incumbent Patricia Jessamy and her opponent Gregg Bernstein.The Vanguard Justice Society, which represents minority officers in the Baltimore Police Department, has scheduled a debate between the two contenders for Thursday at 6:30 p.m. at the Mt. Washington Conference Center in Northwest Baltimore.
Newly elected Vanguard Justice Society President Kenneth Butler said the organization scheduled the debate to give both its membership and the public a chance to hear both candidates’ views on fighting crime in the city.
RACE HAS BEEN HEATED
“We know this has been a heated race, so we thought it would be worthwhile," he said. "I want our members to hear both sides and from both candidates.”
The debate will not be open to the public, Butler said. However, local news media have been invited to attend.
The race for city state’s attorney has gone from moribund to heated in the past two weeks. On Thursday the two held a heated debate on radio station WYPR-FM.
