Before Rudy, during the Dinkins tenure as shiftless janitor-in-chief, uber-liberal Brooklyn DA Liz Holtzman was mugged at W43rd and 9th Ave around noon while on the public telephone accompanied by her two detective bodyguards. Liz had told the two to stand back for privacy for the call. The fleet footed perps hit and split before the two detectives could react. The cops wouldn’t have run very well as the sidewalk was broken up and empty crack vials littered the area around the public phone.
She had just left the NYT offices where she had a talk with NYT editors.
How do I know this? I was returning to the design studio from a client meeting. I was blocked by the crime scene tape from entering my building. I got an eye roll after asking local precinct cop why they blocked my entrance as it was 30-40 from the phone. “Hey, it’s the Brooklyn DA, man.”

This double murder is really bad. And the even most ignorant has to see it as thought out revenge and hate motivated. It will shut a lot of people the heck up
Even sharp tons stuttering looking for his position from which to hustle
