Criminal prosecutions and convictions in Delaware County NY under Acting DA Hubbard illegal as Acting DA Hubbard's residency is not verified

A District Attorney of any county in New York must reside in that county.

When DA Northrup was elected County Judge in 2015, and Acting DA Hubbard replaced DA Northrup as District Attorney, DA Hubbard now has to reside in Delaware County.

With that in mind, I made a Freedom of Information Request with Delaware County.

After a prolonged delay to answer my request, Delaware County finally answered - 



Since the county has no records verifying whether the Delaware County Acting District Attorney John Hubbard resides within Delaware County, there are the following two legal consequences of this statement:


(1) Delaware County has no right to pay John Hubbard his Acting DA salary;
(2) all investigations, prosecutions and convictions obtained by Acting DA John Hubbard are illegal - imposing liability on the County and all of its taxpayers for illegal convictions.

And that is especially so that a witness indicated to me that John Hubbard actually drives around with Schoharie County license plates.

John Hubbard is not the only one public official whose employment with the county depends on this residency within the county and whose residency, as a condition of employment, is not verified by the County for purposes of such employment.

I will continue disclosing contents of Delaware County's astonishing answers to my FOIL request in separate blogs.

Stay tuned.
