A former Manhattan assistant district attorney has been indicted for felony pot sales -- the very kind of crime he once prosecuted.
David Leung, 44, had been busted during a September buy and bust operation on East 9th Street. Leung was allegedly selling high grade weed through a delivery service.
He declined comment today as he left Manhattan Criminal Court, where he was informed of the indictment.
He's accused of selling to an undercover an envelope containing two bags of marijuana for $200. Cops with Narcotics Borough Manhattan South found another "two large bags" of marijuana in his trunk, according to the charges against him.
