State Rep. Martina White | Pennsylvania 170th Legislative District
In response to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court's decision to dismiss the impeachment case against Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner on procedural grounds, Rep. Martina White (R-Philadelphia) expressed her disappointment and concern. The ruling prevents a Senate trial from moving forward, leaving allegations against Krasner unresolved.
“Like far too many of the criminals his office prosecutes, Larry Krasner today avoided his trial on the basis of a technicality,” said White. “Krasner has never denied the allegations against him. Instead, his defense has been simply the legislature can’t do anything about it. This ruling does not mean that is true, and today all Philadelphians - and Mr. Krasner - were denied a day in court to make their case. He cannot claim his innocence, as that trial has not yet happened.”
Rep. Martina White introduced the articles of impeachment in 2022.
