New York Governor Kathy Hochul is praising the installation of security cameras in “every single subway car” across New York City, calling it a critical step in reducing violence and helping law enforcement “solve crimes even faster.”

"The recent surge in violent crimes in our public transit system cannot continue — and we need to tackle this crisis head-on," Hochul said. "I directed the MTA to install security cameras in every single subway car, and now that the project is complete, these cameras are helping police solve crimes even faster."

The initiative coincides with Hochul’s deployment of an additional 250 National Guard members to patrol the subway system in December, bringing the total number to 1,000. Hochul has called public safety her “top priority,” at a time when a number of violent acts on city subways have gained national attention, according to Fox News.

Solve, maybe.  Stop, not so much.  And I hope she has enough money budgeted to replace those cameras which are sure to "stop working" shortly.

Or at least we will be told they were broken after another horrific attack.

A camera is like a traffic light. It really does nothing to stop a crime or a vehicle. That's up to the people passing through.

Having nice pictures of the murder won't bring the victim back, nor guarantee the offender is apprehended--especially with the 'mask' thingy making a comeback.
