Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner's Office delivered sharp criticism of Senate President Pro Tempore Jake Corman who urged state leaders on Tuesday to begin impeachment proceedings against the newly re-elected prosecutor.

Corman, a Republican who represents Pennsylvania's 34th District, called for action as an effort to stem the recent wave of violence in Philadelphia. The largest city in the state just endured its bloodiest year to date with over 560 homicides in 2021.

"The recent spike in violent crime is a direct result of DA Krasner’s failed policies and his refusal to perform the duties of his office to hold criminals accountable for the crimes that they commit," Corman wrote. Krasner's office fired back in a series of pointed comments that criticized Corman's political affiliation and blasted his candidacy for Pennsylvania governor.

Your bias is disgusting and shows you just follow along and do what you’re told. DA_LarryKrasner has ruined the city! “Let Em Out” Larry isn’t the nickname you want from criminals

The senator has a point.

No need to go looking for drama plenty of it right here, when will the local media admit to the dysfunctional City Administration both Civil & Law Enforcement that's plaguing this City. Does anybody know how to effectively manage Philadelphia without destroying it in the process.

So krasners reply didn’t deny it, just only tried to discredit

Impeach him then do a search and seizure of all illegal weapons in philly!

Krasner should be arrested

After so many years it is finally seen. Lord help us the people living in our city don’t as they re-elected him. Smh

FINALLY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Corman is right, Glad someone is finally showing some guts. Lord knows our Mayor & City Council haven’t. ImpeachKrasner

Add PhillyMayor & PPDCommish to that list of those who need to go!!!

562 dead black men isn’t enough? When will the vast majority of hard working black folks WAKE THE FUCK UP?

Lfg!!!

Highest murder rate since the 1960s. Any other non-government position the person would be fired. I'm so tired of government people getting away with whatever they want.

Who cares that he’s running for governor. I wouldn’t vote for him but he’s right & DA_LarryKrasner needs to be removed. You can have law & order along with reform but Larry doesn’t want law & order

Impeach Krasner!

The nerve. Larry’s a wonderful DA.

Let’s go JakeCorman !

Jake Corman is a dope
