Man is trapped in an elevator for FOUR DAYS in homeless shelter run by ex-NY Gov. Cuomo's sister

A man was trapped in broken elevator at a run-down Manhattan homeless shelter run by ex-New York governor Andrew Cuomo's sister for four days before he was rescued by the FDNY.

The trapped man, who has yet to be identified, was severely dehydrated when he was rescued and was rushed to Harlem Hospital, according to the New York Post.

He was released from the hospital around 10am Sunday after the serious but not life-threatening condition.

The ordeal took place at HELP Meyer Mental Health +Shelter located at 600 East 125th Street on Wards Island, which the city pays more than $5,300 for each man it houses in 95 dorm-style rooms, which can hold up to 200 men. 

The shelter is one of 24 operated by HELP USA, a nonprofit organization that grew out of one funded by ex-Gov Cuomo in 1986. It has been headed by his sister Maria Cuomo Cole since 1993.  .  .  .

Maria Cuomo Cole seems to be profiting nicely from this non-profit.  $5,300 per resident per month for dormitory-style rooming?  Private resident assisted living doesn't cost that much.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.
