thank you guys for all being here today and I guess I'll start my questions specifically with The Bronx because that's where I'm from.
6:39:35
As y'all can see, Bronx versus the world.
6:39:37
But I'm working on a decarceration plan because as Darcelle Clark has mentioned multiple times that we're seeing an increase in youth violence across the city and I would love to hear more about the the what what's the what you call it?
6:39:54
Youth Justice Bureau.
6:39:55
Yeah.
6:39:55
The Youth Justice Bureau that you're thinking about doing.
6:39:57
And I guess my first question is just to ask about how many ADAs would you need for this and what are some of the specialties that you're looking for to have in this department and what would be unique about this department in particular?
