Saritha Komatireddy launches campaign for New York Attorney General

Saritha Komatireddy, a former Assistant US Attorney and former chief of staff of the Drug Enforcement Administration, has launched a campaign for New York Attorney General against incumbent Letitia James.

Komatireddy, a Republican nominee, argues that James has neglected her core duties in favor of national politics and personal brand building. She claims that New Yorkers feel less safe under the current administration, citing instances of subway assaults and stray bullets as evidence of a decline in public safety during James's tenure.

Komatireddy’s professional background includes prosecuting terrorists, cartel members, and cybercriminals in the Eastern District of New York.
