After Grand Central stabbing, Mayor Adams’ response shows he missed crime train
NY Post
As Mayor Adams passes his two-year mark in office this weekend, his response to New York’s latest outrage — the “random” Christmas Day stabbing of two girls at Grand Central Terminal — wasn’t a good augur for the next two years.
This is going to sound, sadly, a bit familiar.
The suspect in the stabbing, Steven Hutcherson, is yet another troubled vagrant.
Before stabbing the two young tourists Christmas morning, allegedly screaming that he would kill white people, he had plagued his fellow New Yorkers for months with threats — threats the city didn’t treat seriously.
He has a long arrest record — at least 17 — and a recent history of mental-health issues.
Police arrested him barely seven weeks ago — for threatening to shoot someone while armed with a knife.
