Let’s go to the videotape.
That’s what the city Correction Commissioner Louis Molina and Mayor Eric Adams say in response to the Nunez Independent Monitor’s damning report last week about the Correction Department’s alleged inability to properly care for and report on the welfare of inmates in their custody.
Disputing the federal monitor’s findings, Molina and Adams shared video with amNewYork Metro that, they argue, amounts to proof that the report is not completely accurate.
The Independent Monitor lambasted the city and DOC in a 21-page document that accused top brass of failing to report deadly and near-fatal incidents inside city jails, such as Rikers Island, while also failing to properly act in order to save lives to the best of their abilities. This is something DOC Commissioner Molina and Mayor Adams believe is erroneous.
