Traditionally, New York City mayors are supposed to visit injured police officers in the hospital
Traditionally, New York City mayors are supposed to visit injured police officers in the hospital, but Mamdani being such a historical figure is instead visiting a man who tried to stab a police officer in the hospital.
Video shows Jabez Chakraborty lunging with a knife at police officers before an officer shoots him.
Mamdani visited the attempted stabber in the hospital using him as the poster stabber for his police defunding campaign.
“This situation underscores just how urgently we need a different and more effective mental health response system,” Mamdani argued. “Jabez needs mental health treatment, not criminal prosecution by a district attorney.”
I’m going to bet that he had “mental health treatment” and it didn’t keep him from trying to stab a police officer.
But police officers can always count on Mamdani to take the side of those who stab them. Which police attacker will Mamdani visit in the hospital next?
