Mayor de Blasio’s wife says eliminating NYPD would be ‘nirvana, a utopia’
The wife of New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio told TIME magazine earlier this week that she can envision a Big Apple without police someday, claiming it would be “nirvana, a utopia.â€
That said, however, she and her husband also don’t see it happening anytime soon.
“That would be like a nirvana, a utopia that we are nowhere close to getting to,†McCray noted in a TIME100 Talks discussion.
Cray’s comments come after elected leaders in Minneapolis have caved to demands by Left-wing groups to disband that city’s police department in the wake of the death of George Floyd at the hands of a few bad cops last month.
When she was asked if New York City would follow Minneapolis’ lead and disband the country’s largest metropolitan police department, at around 36,000 officers, McCray laughed it off.
