Auritt challenges Hazel on DA conviction rate record
Democratic challenger Jon J. Auritt accuses Incumbent Delaware County District Attorney Frank Hazel of a lower conviction rate than his predecessor. Auritt cites a 14 page press release comparing 76 percent under Stephen Sen to 57 percent under Hazel from 1976 to present. Hazel says Auritt distorts figures and notes an earlier claim of under 40 percent was corrected. A lawsuit over data requests was settled in a closed session before Judge John V. Diggins.
