Mamdani posts emotional message mourning accused knife-wielding killer —and is slammed by victim’s family

Mayor Zohran Mamdani publicly mourned an accused career criminal killer who died on Rikers Island this week — and the family of the victim slain in the sick, unprovoked attack is now livid, The Post has learned.

Hizzoner said on X that he was “deeply saddened” by the in-custody death — the seventh so far this year at the troubled jail complex — adding that, “my thoughts are with his family and loved ones as they grieve this loss.”

The inmate was identified as 41-year-old Clarence Woodward, an ex-con with nearly 30 arrests on his rap sheet, who was found unresponsive in his cell shortly after 5 a.m. Tuesday while awaiting trial for murder in the gruesome 2024 attack at a Bronx laundromat.

To the family of victim Jose Miranda, the mayor’s statement was “a slap in the face.”

“It’s terrible,” his grieving mother, Marisol Miranda, told The Post on Thursday, adding, “That’s not fair. That’s not fair at all.”

The Rockland Country resident said that the mayor’s sorrow was misplaced, and should have instead been aimed at her beloved son, a 45-year-old dad of two who worked as a barber when he was stabbed to death.

<< the mayor’s sorrow was misplaced >>

Leftists are invariably repulsed by the good and sympathetic with the wicked. It’s like a reflex.

Mamdani is who the democrats are. Chances are the victim’s family voted for the chronically grinning muzzie because he is a dreamy brown immigrant. What does anyone expect who follows a pedo cult?

Someday the right person will be pushed too far. It will go beyond anger to action.

Yup. The people of NYC voted for a guy who's on the side of the criminal element. Which is a substantial voting bloc in that city, it must be noted.

Ten bucks says that there will be talk in ‘28 about him being the VP nominee...despite the fact that he can’t be President. The Rats will think “we’ll find a way”.

This is unfortunately true. Leftist/commies line up to be 'victims'. They won't acknowledge it until they're put up on wall.

That's socialism and communism and fascism. It always ends the same way.

To me he seems deeply hateful, not deeply saddened.

I eagerly await the moment that New Yorkers read the history of Mossolini and realize a solution for Dork-andami. Come on, you know that that little turd deserves it.

RE: The Rats will think “we’ll find a way”.

And when the SCOTUS and Senate are made obsolete later, they can revisit the unfair and discriminatory (/s) bar to foreign people becoming President.

He’s elated he finally has a stiff he can fake sorrow for and use for political reasons. He probably did a little muzzie homo dance when he found out somebody died on Rikers.

newly-minted American citizen, muslim and woke agitator Mamdani was elevated into his present position, by hostile forces outside the country (and their US agents), specifically for the purpose of causing chaos and demoralization

I will not be convinced otherwise.
