Richard Schwartz, Assistant Attorney General, Killed During NY Storm


Cuomo: "His Work Ethic and His Passion Were an Inspiration to All Who Had the Privilege of Knowing Him"

Governor Andrew Cuomo today released the following statement on Schwartz's passing: 

“On behalf of all New Yorkers, I would like to express my sympathy to the loved ones of Assistant Attorney General Richard Schwartz, who tragically lost his life during last night’s severe storm. Richard was a dedicated public servant and attorney who served the State of New York in the Office of the Attorney General for over 25 years. His commitment to placing the needs of New Yorkers above all else will be remembered and cherished. His work ethic and his passion were an inspiration to all who had the privilege of knowing him. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family, friends and colleagues with whom he worked during his many years in State service.”
