This weekend marks the unofficial start of summer fun, but it’s also when Long Island roads get a lot more dangerous. That’s why the period between Memorial Day and Labor Day is widely considered the 100 deadliest days of the year.

As we head to summer BBQs, graduation parties, and beach trips, DA Donnelly reminds you to be responsible. Don’t drive impaired. A DWI arrest can ruin your life. A DWI crash can end someone else’s.

Court is in session! ⚖️ DA Donnelly welcomed hundreds of young students from 30 Nassau County schools to Mineola for the Future Advocates Mock Trial Program.

For months, 9 of our ADAs have been coaching these bright students on the art of the trial—from evidence and discovery to cross-examination and closing arguments. Today, the training wheels came off as they stepped up for round 1! Congratulations to everyone who participated 👏

The program was founded by Joshua Brookstein, private practice attorney and chairperson of the School Engagement Subcommittee of the Nassau County Bar Association’s Community Releations and Public Education Committee.

Walking for a cause! NCDA was honored to participate in the 2026 Move with MADD Community Walk at Jones Beach Theater this past Saturday, helping to raise funds that support MADD’s mission to end impaired driving. The day became even more meaningful when our Vehicular Crimes Bureau received an emotional shout-out from a victim’s family during the keynote speeches. A reminder of why we do what we do—for the people behind every case. Huge thanks to everyone who donated to the NCDA team!

Nope, not a dress down day! NCDA is wearing denim to observe , a global movement to raise awareness of sexual assault, show support for survivors, and stand against victim-blaming.

DA Donnelly is joined by her Office of CORE Services and some of our Crime Victim Advocates in the Victims Services Unit.

This time of year, NCDA sees a spike in home improvement scams. Scammers target homeowners with high-pressure tactics and empty promises.

Don’t be pushed into a quick decision. If it feels wrong, it probably is. DA Donnelly explains the red flags and steps you should take before handing over a single dollar.
