Rudy Giuliani on DrugsFormer Mayor of New York City; Republican Candidate for 2000 Senate (NY) | |
Giuliani attempted damage control. A juvenile record was discovered--when Dorismond was 14, he had been arrested on robbery charges, which were dropped---& Giuliani took the unheard-of step of unsealing and publicizing the juvenile record. Giuliani then uttered the racially inflaming 3 words.
Al Sharpton commented, “When Giuliani said ‘He’s no choirboy,’ it was almost as if someone had driven a stake through the mother’s heart. A lot of the passion that I bring to fights is caused by being so close to the family. In revealing the sealed documents and distorting them, the mayor really shook the Dorismond family.
