Disgraced DA Sandra Doorley sent colleagues a brutal email just days before bodycam showed her berating cops who caught her speeding

New York District Attorney Sandra Doorley sent a brutal email to colleagues just days before bodycam showed her berating cops who had caught her speeding.

The Monroe County DA called some of her staff 'a disaster, plain and simple,' in the email, obtained by Democrat and Chronicle. 

She began the email on a positive note, giving props to those who had been achieving tasks at a rate she deemed reasonable, writing: 'Many of you are working extremely hard on your cases and have been diligent in managing your caseloads. Thank you so much!!!'

But the tone quickly turned, furiously claiming, 'many of you are a disaster, plain and simple. This will not be tolerated.'

She continued, emphasizing her dissatisfaction in bold letters: 'It is unacceptable to ignore your duties as a prosecutor. I have gone to great lengths to advocate for higher salaries and raises. To see many of you drop the ball on so many cases, is discouraging and disheartening.'

In the email, the Monroe County DA called some of her staff 'a disaster, plain and simple'

The email continued: 'Starting the week of May 6th, each of you, including bureau chiefs, will meet with me personally to discuss your caseloads. Bureau chiefs need not attend the meetings with the members of your bureau. Appeals attorneys need not be concerned. Be prepared to discuss the status of all of your cases, including felony investigations.' 

This harsh communication style was familiar to some of her former staff who left the District Attorney's Office during Doorley's tenure, which began in 2011.

Doorley's office has been accused of having a toxic environment for years. 

Prosecutors have quit for private practice with some accusing Doorley of having a 'hostile' management style, the Democrat and Chronicle reported. 

Local defense lawyer Daniel Strollo, who previously worked for the DA's Office, told the outlet that Doorley 'can be difficult to work for.' 

But Doorley argued that her turnover rate was average as compared with that of other offices - and she called the complaints about her attitude sexist.

The disgraced city worker is now under investigation after being caught on bodycam calling a police officer an 'a**hole' over a speeding ticket after refusing to stop when she was pulled over. 

Monroe County DA Sandra Doorley had a tense interaction with a Webster police officer on Monday after the cop tried to pull her over for driving 55 miles per hour in a 35 miles per hour zone

Doorley (pictured) refused to stop for a cop after she was caught speeding because she 'didn't feel like it' and was stressed from dealing with murders all day 

The heated incident occurred on April 22, when an officer followed Doorley to her home after she was flagged for driving 20 miles over the speed limit in her hulking GMC Yukon SUV. 

Doorley was driving 55 miles per hour in a 35 miles per hour zone. She is now facing a state inquiry into her behavior.

Doorley only admitted that she was driving 55 mph in a 35 mph zone after humiliating bodycam video surfaced and quickly went viral. 

The footage opens with Doorley telling an officer, 'I'm sorry. I'm the D.A. I was going 55 coming from work.'

When the officer tells Doorley the reason for the traffic stop, she responds, 'I don't really care.'

The officer then instructs her to step outside her garage, but she refuses.

As things continue to escalate, the district attorney dials Webster Chief of Police Dennis Kohlmeier on her cellphone and asks: 'Can you please tell them to leave me alone?'

As the officer tells her that she made the situation a bigger deal than it had to be by refusing to pull over, Doorley responds: 'Just write me the traffic ticket.'

The officer reminded her that it was no longer just a traffic ticket - and that not complying with an officer's order to stop and pull over is an 'arrest able offense.' 

Doorley explained that she didn't see the point in pulling over when she was so close to her driveway. 'I thought it would be easier. I was wrong,' she said. 

As she refuses to step outside her garage, she hands the cop the phone to speak with the police chief telling him 'leave me alone, this is ridiculous'. 

The officer can be heard telling her: 'What do you want us to do? Not do our job because it is you? You broke another law because of that. You should know better.'

The Rochester City Council sent a letter to Attorney General Letitia James on Saturday, asking her to investigate Doorley's behavior

Bodycam footage shows the heated exchange - in which Doorley said 'I didn't feel like stopping on Phillips Road at 5:30.'

Later in the dramatic bodycam footage, Doorley can be heard complaining that she's had a really bad day 'dealing with murders in the city.'

Doorley released a statement on Thursday in which she admitted she had gone over the speed limit - and again tried to justify her decision, saying the distance was less than half a mile from her neighborhood.

'Nobody, including your District Attorney, is above the rule of law, even traffic laws. Anybody who knows me understands without a doubt that I have dedicated my entire 33-year career to the safety of this community,' she said. 

'My work to ensure the safety and respect of law enforcement is well proven time and time again. 

'I stand by my work and stand by my commitment to the public safety of Monroe County,' Doorley continued. 

Doorley released a statement on Thursday admitting that she exceeded the speed limit and reaffirming her 'commitment to the public'

On Saturday, the Rochester City Council sent a letter to Attorney General Letitia James beseeching her to investigate Monroe County District Attorney Sandra Doorley's conduct.

'Recent body camera footage, shared by the Webster Police Department, has raised significant concerns regarding Ms. Doorley's behavior during a traffic stop in Webster, New York,' the letter read.

'This incident has led us to question her fitness to serve as District Attorney, and we believe an investigation by your office is warranted.'

The document was signed by all nine city council members, who believe Doorely violated the standards of 'ethics, accountability and respect for the law' that her title necessitates. 

Locals have said Doorley's behavior makes a mockery of the law and could lead to criminals saying they'd ignored laws because they felt like it - the same excuse used by the woman paid to prosecute them.
