New York Governor Kathy Hochul was asked to leave the wake for murdered NYPD officer Jonathan Diller on Friday afternoon, according to reports.
Hochul walked away as she was confronted by an unknown person after spending only ten minutes at the Massapequa Funeral Home on Long Island, the New York Post reported.
The governor was scheduled to pay her respects on the second day of viewings for Diller, a New York Police Department officer who was allegedly shot and killed by suspect Guy Rivera, 34, on Monday evening.
After Hochul arrived at the funeral home around 1.45 pm on Friday, a person from the crowd shouted, 'Get her outta here,' law enforcement sources told the Post.
Hochul has been criticized for her soft-on-crime policies and controversial bail reform laws since Diller's death, as it's been revealed that Rivera had at least 21 prior arrests, including nine felonies.
Rivera was charged on Thursday with first-degree murder of Diller and attempted murder for aiming his gun at a second police officer.
Lindy Jones, 41, who was charged with a number of gun crimes in connection with the shooting, was arrested on a gun charge last spring and had spent time in prison for attempted murder.
According to police sources who spoke to the Post, Hochul was confronted by a man in a black suit on her way to the car.
Photos and videos from the outlet capture the man furiously speaking to the governor and pointing to the crowd.
When Hochul walked away, several officers waiting outside the funeral home can be heard clapping.
Hochul's appearance at the wake comes a day after she directed flags on all state buildings to be flown at half-staff in honor of Diller on March 30, the day of his funeral services.

Adams and Bragg shown up too and were turned away
The NY Gov and Letitia Borgia errr James both asked to speak at the funeral tomorrow...
1. President Trump showed up on the first day of the memorial/wake.
2. On that day the leftists were gathering for the ‘great grassroots fundraiser at Radio City Music hall’. Bad optics for the commies, which will be forgotten. That was the communist elitist version of a ‘rally’.
3. Gov. Hochul was no doubt down from Albany to NYC for the ‘greatest event of the season’ with the elites. She showed up the next afternoon after the drugs/hangover/party fuel wore off and was not welcomed.
I use the terms ‘communists’, ‘democrats’, ‘leftists’, and ‘fascists’ interchangebly.

[don’t eat before you look for “Lizzo’s performance at Radio City democrat”]
I wish they all would have spit on her. She’s a real POS.
“I also wouldn’t be surprised if the State Patrol showed up at his door at 2 o’clock in the morning to arrest him on some fake charge.”
I wouldn’t be surprised if the state patrol that showed up at 2am to arrest him are given 24 hours to leave the state.
Good News. Soft on Crime politicos are Not Welcome.
Tunnel to Towers Foundation paid it off.
“She’ll punish those officers there.”
That would be freaking stupid of her. Who does she think would respond to her house/person if a crime happened to her?
Oh wait I know the same cops we are looking at today, when they are done with their coffee and donunts that is.
They’ll vote for her again.
Classic. Go away, you’re welcome here.
