Reply to comment by G2046H in 27-year-old woman stabbed to death at Manhattan women’s shelter by Snoo-27930

The NYPD used to do warrant sweeps in shelters. City council said that was inhumane.

The Dept of Homeless services used to put peace officers in some non city run sites. They have since receded. I think the unarmed DHS police (legitimate peace officers) should be in every shelter. To provide security for clients and for staff.

Oh really? I didn’t know that. I totally agree. They need to do more, in terms of keeping everyone safe. It’s really sad that some people’s lives are deemed less worthy and therefore, they need less protection.

No the extreme left finds protection invasive and worse than the chaos at the shelters.

Well, not everyone is on the extreme left.
