In Spanish is a rule to use "a" to indicate the direct object in the sentece. In "No conozco a esa persona" the direct object is "esa persona", for that reason is better to put "a" before.
You can say "No conozco esa persona." and we can still understand you, but is gramatically better to put the "a"

If the direct object is a person you have to put "a" before it.
