“Accused teen subway killer Keyondre Russell speaks out” The 18-year-old accused in the shooting death of a 15-year-old on the A train in Queens last month whined to The Post in an exclusive jailhouse interview that he’s “not the murderer” in the caught-on-video slaying. Keyondre Russell of Far Rockaway was arrested for murder and criminal…
“Just fix Rikers — and forget the new NYC neighborhood jails” The number of inmate deaths under the NYC Department of Correction’s watch is up to 11 this year, with the majority from overdose or suicide, and five in just the last three weeks. Shootings and stabbings at Rikers have also increased by nearly four-fold from 2020 to 2021. And…
“NYC’s $105B budget barely nods at soaring inflation despite boost in reserves” No city budget is inflation-proof. But in the $104.9 billion budget deal he made with the City Council last Friday, Mayor Eric Adams is making the budget slightly more inflation-resistant, with higher rainy-day reserves.

“Why Rikers Island jail should be handed over to the feds” By Tuesday, the city needs to submit to federal Judge Laura Taylor Swain its plan for fixing the deadly conditions at the Rikers Island jail complex as Southern District prosecutors are pushing for a receiver to take charge. They’re right, and Mayor Eric Adams…
“How bowing to the trans lobby led to a Rikers prison rape” Because New York’s leaders refuse to stand up to the most absurd demands of transgender advocates, a woman got raped in the shower at Rikers. And, in a similar outcome that the advocates insisted it was sheer bigotry to fear, two New Jersey…
“Federal takeover of Rikers Island isn’t a bitter pill” Mayor Eric Adams is better off seeing calls for a federal takeover of the Rikers Island jail complex as an opportunity, not a threat. In a six-page letter to federal Judge Laura Taylor Swain, Southern District prosecutors call for “the appointment of a receiver with independent…
“NYC feds threaten Rikers Island with independent takeover” Manhattan federal prosecutors said Tuesday they were “alarmed” by recent violence at New York City jails — and threatened to request that the Department of Correction be taken over by an independent body if the agency doesn’t improve conditions at the disordered detention facilities.
