Mayor Eric Adams held up the sneakers of a 12-year-old boy shot dead last week and promised his mother that the city would use every resource to find his killers.
'Just think about this for a moment. What the family said while we spoke just really resonated with me - Whose child is next? Whose child is next? This could have been your [children's] sneakers - My son's. Whose child is next? This story just strikes at the heart of the trauma in our city and out country,' Adams told reporters outside the grieving mom's home in Brooklyn.
But the comments by the besieged city's 'wartime general' seemed to ring hollow as violent has skyrocketed during Adams' first three months in office.
