EMT union fume over alleged plea deal for B'klyn assistant DA accused of attacking medic: letter








An EMT union members are fuming mad over what it calls plans by the Manhattan District Attorney’s office to give a sweetheart plea deal to a Brooklyn assistant DA accused of attacking a medic in an ambulance last November, according to a union letter obtained by the Post today.

Brooklyn Assistant District Attorney Michael Jaccarino, 30, will appear in court tomorrow on charges he drunkenly pummeled and choked EMT Teresa Soler, 46, inside an ambulance after she picked him up in November.

“It is said that the Manhattan DA office will not present the case in a grand jury and that he will plea bargain,” union vice president Joe Conzo raged in the letter to union members.




“Members should be outraged and come out to support EMT Teresa Soler by appearing in Manhattan Criminal Court.”

Law-enforcement sources said the Manhattan DA’s office is considering offering Jaccarino a plea deal instead of pursuing felony charges, but no deal has been offered yet and no deal is expected to be offered tomorrow.

Reached on the phone, Conzo confirmed the letter and said Jaccarino should be prosecuted as seriously as if he had attacked a cop.

“Nobody should be given special treatment,” he said.

Also, another drunken Brooklyn assistant district attorney was busted in December after he refused to pay cab fare – and then told responding cops that he “outranked” them, law-enforcement sources said at the time.

Jaccarino was suspended without pay following the alleged beatdown.

Soler could not be reached.
