Soares. I left a similar message, on your office # (518-400-0955), on Feb 12th, but did not receive any return call. Are you aware of the corruption complaints that D.A. Soares has been "sitting on", since 2013, involving the commission-based judicial pay raises, to which D.A. pay raises are tied, and the state budget? Please call me -- and/or send me your e-mail -- so that I can furnish you with the latest. Thank you.
