Inmates committing crimes after coronavirus release ‘unconscionable': de Blasio
 [NYP] It is "unconscionable" that Rikers Island inmates who were released due to coronavirus concerns are committing new crimes, Mayor Bill de Blasio said Monday."I think it’s unconscionable just on a human level that folks were shown mercy and this is what some of them have done," the mayor said during his morning briefing Monday, which came on the heels of a Post report outlining the issue. De Blasio said the number of re-offenders remains relatively small and that the city was "buckling down" on monitoring and supervising released prisoners. Posted by: Besoeker 2020-04-21 |
