Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani has picked a controversial rapper who did seven years in state prison for armed robbery to advise him on the criminal justice system.
Mysonne Linen, 49, a Bronx convict-turned-activist who was found guilty of two felony heists in the late 1990s, was appointed by the democratic socialist to sit on a “criminal legal system” committee for his transition team as he prepares for the move to City Hall next month.
“This is a testament to our decades of work advocating on behalf of black and brown communities and our expertise in gun violence prevention, legislative advocacy and criminal justice reform,” Linen wrote on Instagram last month. “We are building something different.”
Linen was a promising young rapper when he was convicted in 1999 for being part of a crew that robbed two cab drivers in the Bronx, the New York Daily News reported at the time.
The conviction came just as Linen’s debut album was due for release by Def Jam Recordings.
Bronx prosecutors said his crew pulled off the June 8, 1997, robbery of taxi driver Joseph Exiri, and the March 31, 1998, gunpoint theft from cabbie Francisco Monsanto, according to the News.
Linen, who faced up to 25 years behind bars, continued to deny he was involved and rebranded himself as a community activist following his release from state prison.

Insanity that he was elected. I’m storing up popcorn for this one.
Of course.
Criminal officials will gravitate towards criminal associates...
NYC is turned into a criminally sanctioned crime scene...
Hahahahaha
In the modern world, this is called a ‘middle finger’.
I wonder just how honest that “election” was.....
This will be interesting. Let’s take a before Mamdani and after Mamdani picture of New York.
Just as honest and open that the Biden election was.
LOL...You got that right....
Nyoo Yawkers are gonna get democracy good and hard lol
He doesn’t hide his Red Mao book he recites from it.
Naked anarcho-tyranny.
Obviously, this guy has a lot of experience with law enforcement!
This is gonna be so fun to watch 1000 miles away.
This is New York, I entirely believe the majority of New Yorkers voted for this.
Hear that banging sound? That’s another nail being pounded into the NYC coffin.
If that happens to be true, then they get what they deserved....
The left instinctively sides with evil.
Over 70% of young adult women voted fir him.
Perhaps he was getting a pre-mayoral GROOMING AND AN ADVANCE PAYOFF FROM CHINA in there?
