What a scumbag. I live on 7th street and pass this place everyday. I just got the chills reading this post. Hope they catch him...
Thank you EV Grieve.
If it wasn’t for this blog I would have never have known about this.

Deblasio has BROUGHT THE CITY BACK (to the '70's)
The bad days are back in effect boyeee!
I am sure you are all aware of the two slashings by the Williamsburg Bridge on the lower east side. One near the police station by Ridge. The equally insane part was when a witness was impressed the cops arrived so fast.
Please do not celebrate two slashings. Good God. You're sick. I hope the victims are OK.
hey 10:01
I am not celebrating shit. You should be aware that the slasher has not been caught yet and that he did not give a fuck that he attacked these women in broad daylight and around the corner from a police station.
And the bad days are back, and it's not funny at all and the city is willfully ignoring it. Consider the recent story on how they classify violent crime in homeless shelters and how the NYPD blatantly reclassifies and lessens the severity of crimes on the street to keep stats down.

Yet I'm the sick one. and 3:32 is right. Except this time it's under the veneer of a new gilded age in NYC

The bad days are not back, JQ LLC. We had 290 murders last year, the lowest since 1959. Shootings were the lowest since the '50s. Even if the stats are only half what they really are which would be a blatant cut in stats, we'd still have 580 murders last year.
The city on the whole is safer than it was in the '70s, '80s, and '90s. We had almost triple the amount of assaults today in 1998. NINETEEN NINETY-EIGHT.
2018 NYC is safer than 1998 NYC and 1998 NYC was pretty safe.
...never relax

They are, just because less people are getting killed doesn't mean other crimes are going down. And as the link I posted about the shelters shows and proves, the manipulation and reclassification of criminal acts is coming straight from the top.
Another sign is the amount of homeless and mentally ill on the streets and the pricing out of the working poor from their homes and neighborhoods. If they bad days aren't back like you claim, then this a new depression.
Be aware of your surroundings.
The bad old days were defined by property owners (tax payers) fleeing their properties. That is not happening.
