RACE FOR D.A.: Ever since District Attorney...
RACE FOR D.A.: Ever since District Attorney Cecil Hicks announced he wouldn’t seek reelection next year, courthouse observers have been relishing the prospect of a battle between his top two lieutenants, Michael R. Capizzi and Richard G. Enright. . . . Capizzi has declared his candidacy but a Capizzi-Enright contest looks less likely now with the expected announcement today by Edgar A. Freeman, a longtime supervisor in the same office, that he also will run. Insiders say Freeman wouldn’t be entering the race if he thought Enright was going to. . . . Also a candidate: veteran prosecutor Thomas Avdeef (B4).
