Partnership for New York City president and CEO Kathryn Wylde says Mayor Eric Adams, Gov. Kathy Hocul, NYPD and MTA leadership need public support for stronger measures ranging from 'prosecution of fare evasion to ankle bracelets for felons awaiting trial to institutionalization of the seriously mentally ill.'
The call to action comes following the tragic death of Goldman Sachs employee Daniel Enriquez over the weekend. The 48-year-old, who joinedGlobal Investment Research division in 2013, was riding the Q train from Brooklyn into Manhattan on Sunday when a man shot him at close range. He was pronounced dead at a local hospital.
Wylde said that Mayor Eric Adams, Governor Kathy Hochul and the leadership of the New York Police Department and Metropolitan Transportation Authority are "struggling to restore confidence that the transit system and streets of the city are safe," but emphasized that they need public support for stronger measures ranging from "prosecution of fare evasion to ankle bracelets for felons awaiting trial to institutionalization of the seriously mentally ill.
