Monroe County DA’s Soft-on-Crime Policies take cues from Soros-linked Activist
With nationwide aspirations, the "neutral" NGO, Measures for Justice directs Republican DA Sandra Doorley to increase incarceration alternatives by 430% YoY. This may include vehicle theft.
After campaigning on an Anti-Soros ticket, the recently re-elected Republican DA of Monroe County, NY, Sandra Doorley, takes cues on criminal justice reform from the decades-long George Soros acolyte; Amy Bach, from Rochester, NY.
Sandra Doorley, current DA of Monroe County who famously switched her political affiliation from Democrat to Republican in 2015, won her first election after being billed as the first female to hold the office. Most recently, Doorley defeated Shani Curry Mitchell, a former assistant DA to Doorley and recipient of $952,886 in political donations from George Soros. Now comfortably in office, Doorley has set record high “Diversion goals” for 2025, a controversial method of soft-on-crime policies championed by NGO activist Amy Bach.
The Open Society Institute made Amy Bach a Soros Justice Media Fellow in 2003.
Bach—who is Jewish—leads Measures for Justice (M4J), a non-profit seeking to push the limits of prosecutorial discretion by compiling so-called “diversion data.” M4J then cross-references Diversion data against various socio-economic factors, including race.
Diversions—which have been billed as alternatives to locking away criminals—include drug rehabilitation, career training, therapy sessions, and more. While these programs do require a suspect to make an admission of guilt, successful completion of Diversion programs often result in a full dismissal of criminal charges. The end result is the release of a suspect—in some cases violent—back into the community in some capacity.
Absent the context of recidivism data, M4J consistently finds racial disparities in various diversion datasets nationwide. From there, the organization Amy Bach repeatedly described as “neutral” works with district attorneys that are apparently self-inspired to divert cases at such extreme rates.
For Monroe County, the stated diversion goal of Doorley’s Republican DA office is seeking to achieve by 2025 is 10% of its total caseload (felonies and misdemeanors). In various formats, a seemingly impromptu outreach campaign has repeated this number ad nauseum.
This goal, if actualized, would result in a whopping 430% increase in a rolling 4-year average of diversions—a goal that may include various motor vehicle theft charges. Doorley once alluded to that possibility in a previous, offhand remark to WXXI’s Evan Dawson.
The city of Rochester has risen as a national leader for motor vehicle theft by several metrics, yet criminal justice data is murky and shrouded in secrecy. Diversion numbers for defendants under 18 years-of-age are not publicly available, and are entirely separate phenomena.
Doorley also intimated that violent offenses would not be diverted, however, Doorley’s office has diverted 46 violent offenses since 2019, something confirmed by M4J’s own data portal.
In a multi-day workshop between several obscure ‘charities,’ Amy Bach made a rhetorically revealing concession that seems to upend her own premise for creating M4J. Concerning Yolo County, CA, a test county for M4J, Bach admitted that Blacks often are career criminals.
Indeed these comments also have implications for the United States at large:
“...Many more cases involving Black people than White were sent over from the police. Now the data point itself was not remarkable or shocking, but the consequences of this kind of misalignment were dire. For starters, nationwide [sic], Black defendants tend to come to the system with a prior record more often than White defendants…”
Bach elaborated on that point, using words such as “certainly” when referring to bias as a root cause of this unquantified recidivism disparity. Despite Bach’s confident claims, no evidence was provided which could confirm her claims of racial bias.
According to the M4J website, the aforementioned county of YOLO, CA and was considered a ‘successful’ test case for implementing Diversion policies in government with no metrics cited other than the increased diversions.
While the level of neutrality present in Measures for Justice is suspect, the “non-partisan” nature of their work is not. Essential to the implementation of their national goals is obtaining the willing consent of Republicans like Doorley, who consistently demonstrate their content with soft-on-crime progressive policies. Some Republicans even draft some of their own policies, such as Doug Collin’s First Step Act.

What can only be considered a disastrous emancipation of thousands of mostly Black inmates, the First Step Act was signed by then-President Donald Trump in late 2018, preceding one of the largest crime waves in American history. Trump celebrated this legislation in front of multiple Black beneficiaries of the bill, including so-called ‘gangster rappers.’
Like many soft-on-crime bills, those who appear to make the best of their clemency are often the subject of hyper-focus. For the First Step Act, success was measured as only having a 12% recidivism rate. The data failed to mention the very real-world surge of thousands of additional crimes. Ranging from petty larceny to murder, these crimes would add strain to an already at-risk emergency response system.
To counter these narratives, Trump bizarrely advocated for capital punishment for drug dealers while simultaneously standing by the First Step Act. As a poster child, the First Step Act used a Black female convicted of marijuana and cocaine trafficking. Bret Baier of Fox News once called the former president out on this glaring contradiction, which he did not clarify.

An alternative worldview to Trump and Doorley’s pro-Black utopia—held by the White civil rights organization, the National Justice Party (NJP)—finds ‘hate’ immaterial to the discussion of crime statistics. The ‘unTweetable’ NJP would suggest that Black Americans' propensity for crime is as easily explained as White Americans' revulsion of it, and in fact, high crime is a racial feature of surging Black and minority communities who increasingly experience little accountability in the courtroom.
In a video titled “Year 3 in Review” posted to the NJP’s official Telegram, Chairman Mike Peinovich claims that the American system “subordinates our [White Americans] interests…ultimately to big Jew.” An investigation into funding for Measures for Justice determined that if there ever were a case of Jewish money opposing the will of the racial majority, M4J would likely qualify.
In an acceptance speech for the 2018 Charles Bronfman (Jewish) prize, Amy Bach gave out many thanks to her multi-million and billionaire donors in front of a large audience. M4J made allies with wealthy Jewish organizations and individual donors and was once awarded a $100,000 prize for upholding “Jewish values.”
When given the mic, the Jewish activist Amy Bach thanked the following primarily Jewish organizations and individuals among others:
“They don’t call you angel investors for nothing!”

**When Amy Bach was made a Soros Media Justice Fellow, a stipend in the tens of thousands of dollars was issued to write a book. That book, Ordinary Injustice: How America Holds Court became the premise for M4J.
***Not Jewish but like the severely compromised 45th president, Draper has Jewish grandchildren. The former childrens’ TV stars claim to celebrate Passover every Jewish year with their Gentile grandfather.
Bach also gave special thanks to two Gentile-run conservative think tank investors:

The Donner Foundation (Libertarian)
Amy Bach has so far been compensated nearly $1.6 million over her 11 year tenure as President of Measures for Justice. Her direct salary has been $229,270 for two years in a row and has not been below 6 figures since 2014. Bach has received additional tens of thousands of dollars in other forms of compensation from her creation, M4J.
In 2021, Bach and her husband sold their home in Rochester, NY for $800,000 even. They claim to be Rochester residents to this day,and may have relocated inside the city limits to wealthier climes.
The $800,000 sale is a figure far and away outside the affordability of the average White citizen who, according to Rochester, NY census data, has a nearly 1 in 5 chance of living below the poverty line. Despite her privilege and prominence within M4J, the organization, Bach would remain as just one of many ethnic Jews to have held an executive position at M4J and receive a 6 figure salary.
Measures for Justice is currently looking to accelerate its plans nationwide. According to promotional material advertised for M4J, the 75.9% White state of Ohio appears to be of special interest to women like Bach, and a special source of vexation for many of her co-ethnics.
