New Website Calls For Bradley's Ouster
A new website has been launched calling for the removal of White Plains Mayor Adam Bradley from office.
The site, www.recallbradley.com urges residents to email Common Council members suggesting they take action and asking residents to distribute flyers calling for his ouster.
The site says, "The Mayor has been convicted of domestic violence. He believes he is above the law and that the citizens of White Plains cannot touch him."
Last week, Bradley received a mixed verdict in his bench trial on domestic abuse charges, he was found guilty of some charges and acquitted of others.
Because the charges he was convicted of are misdemeanors, and not felonies, he is not required to be removed from office. He faces up to a year behind bars when he's sentenced March 17.
Calls to Bradley's office for comments were not returned.
Bradley said last week he will be appealing his conviction and will not step down.
