Former clerk questions prosecution decision after jury clears him
1.
Former CVS employee Scotty Enoe was recently acquitted of manslaughter charges in the 2023 stabbing death of Charles Brito, a person described as a shoplifter who allegedly attacked him at a Manhattan store. Following his acquittal, Enoe expressed concerns about Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's decision to prosecute the case. The jury deliberated for less than 30 minutes before clearing Enoe of the manslaughter charge, though he was convicted on a lesser weapons possession count.
