Advocates for criminal justice reform had praised Vance as a progressive, citing his support for closing the Rikers Island jail and for dismissing more than 240,000 old warrants for minor offenses. But he is now taking the kind of fire he experienced following the Strauss-Kahn case, and then some. On Sunday, he promised to stop taking campaign contributions for 90 days, while Columbia Law School's Center for the Advancement of Public Integrity reviews his handling of donations. In recent days, activists have chanted outside of his office, and a state official demanded an investigation into his conduct.
