Bronx Prosecutor Resigns After Child Predator Allegations
A Bronx prosecutor, William CC Kemp-Neal, recently made headlines for his sudden resignation after being caught on video allegedly trying to meet with a young boy he was communicating with online. The video, produced by an online vigilante group called Dads Against Predators, captured Kemp-Neal in a Target parking lot in Mount Vernon.
The Controversial Video
The video, filmed on July 8th, shows a security officer approaching Kemp-Neal and questioning him. Despite his denial, the group of men present at the scene accused him of trying to meet a 13-year-old boy. The situation escalated quickly, with Kemp-Neal attempting to flee and being restrained by an unidentified man. The chaotic scene caught the attention of Mount Vernon police, who promised a full investigation into the matter.
Resignation and Response
Just four days after the video surfaced, Kemp-Neal resigned from his position as an Assistant District Attorney. While he has not been charged with any crime, the allegations made against him have sparked public outrage and concern. District Attorney Darcel Clark’s office issued a statement confirming Kemp-Neal’s resignation and acknowledging the seriousness of the situation.
Despite denying the accusations made by the online vigilantes, Kemp-Neal’s reputation has been tarnished, and he faces an uncertain future. The incident serves as a reminder of the dangers of online predators and the importance of safeguarding vulnerable individuals from harm.
