Racist Emails: Prosecutors Face Suspension in Wrongful Conviction Case
Update: 2025-09-20
Description
Racist emails could cost two Massachusetts prosecutors their careers! A judicial panel is recommending suspensions for Karen O’Sullivan and John Bradley after they exchanged offensive emails during the trial of Frances Choy, an Asian-American teen wrongly convicted of murdering her parents. The emails mocked Choy and her nephew with racist stereotypes, leading to accusations of bias and a re-examination of Choy's case, for which she was awarded a 3-million-dollar settlement after spending 17 years in prison. Now, the Supreme Judicial Court will decide if the prosecutors will face the consequences for their actions, in a case that could set a new precedent for accountability in the legal system.
