New York City officials want to ease pressure on overcrowded homeless shelters by housing migrants in a federal jail that once held mobsters, terrorists and Wall Street swindlers before being shut down after Jeffrey Epstein's suicide.The proposal, suggested in an August 9 letter to Governor Kathy Hochul's administration, came as New York struggles to handle the estimated 100,000 migrants who have arrived in the city since last year after crossing the southern US border.The city is legally obligated to find shelter for anyone needing it.
