>I know the post is very trashy and sensational

The Post is 100% a trashy tabloid, but their sensationalist coverage of the Alba incident played a significant role in Bragg's Office dropping charges in the Jose Alba case.

They had the exclusive with the security camera footage which vindicated him completely and made it a major cover story. The video turned a local crime story into national news.

Given the evidence, the case would have been dismissed anyway, but who knows how long that process would have taken had The Post not leaked the video.

Keep in mind Bragg's Office had the video the entire time and still not only arrested Alba, but wanted to pursue murder charges against him.
