Kathy Hochul. You didn\u2019t sign off on those criminal-justice \u201creforms\u201d three years ago, to be sure, but folks are wondering just how bizarre things have to get before you decide to roll them back.<\/p>\n<p>That is, New Yorkers now get that the joke is on them \u2014 and they\u2019re not amused.<\/p>\n<p>Take the case of Mariam Issouf, 26 years old and an <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/10\/11\/green-goblin-crew-member-released-without-bail-in-nyc-subway-beating\/\">alleged member of the so-called Green Goblin crew <\/a>that assaulted and robbed two teens on the subway on Oct. 2. Charged with a violent felony and then no-bailed, she walked out of court behind her lawyer Tuesday, her head under a black leather jacket.<\/p>\n<p>She hadn\u2019t done anything wrong, said the lawyer, with a straight face. Which is what lawyers do, of course.<\/p>\n<p>Even when their clients have been caught on cellphone video, with a half-dozen or so others, <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/10\/07\/4-members-of-green-goblin-subway-attack-crew-idd-by-nypd\/\">dressed in full neon-green bodysuits <\/a>\u2014 space-alien masks completed the ensemble \u2014 getting all rambunctious on a Times Square subway train at 2 a.m.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/green-goblin-gang-nyc-subway-robbery-09-2.jpg\"><\/a>A video recently went viral of a group of females wearing neon green leotards beating up two teens in the subway. Reddit \/ RoBoyJones <\/p>\n<p>T<a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/10\/11\/alleged-member-of-green-goblin-thieves-mariam-issouf-arrested\/\">wo 19-year-olds were slapped around and robbed<\/a>, and Issouf subsequently was charged with felony assault \u2014 but, hey, it\u2019s all guilt by association. Because when folks are assaulted by people wearing neon-green bodysuits, and your client was at the scene wearing a neon-green bodysuit \u2014 well, who\u2019s to say who did what to whom? Don\u2019t be judgmental.<\/p>\n<p>Wrong. Be very judgmental. Because the bodysuit is the point: When muggers are comfortable roaming in packs wearing what amounts to \u201cArrest me\u201d signs on their backs, a moment close to terminal decline has arrived.<\/p>\n<p>And when Hochul, Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie, Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins, and <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/10\/09\/ny-gov-hochul-slammed-for-appointing-bail-reform-advocate-as-one-of-her-top-legal-aides\/\">every single legislator who voted for the \u201creforms\u201d<\/a> are just fine with that \u2014 with an election less than a month away \u2014 hope for positive change probably in the wind.<\/p>\n<p>Hochul is running for a full term, and Nov. 8 could be the state\u2019s last chance to push back until at least 2026. Indeed, who knows how contemptuous of public order New York\u2019s leaders will have become by then \u2014 or what well-dressed muggers will be wearing to work?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/10\/10\/ive-had-it-this-former-prosecutor-is-voting-zeldin-over-hochul-to-fix-new-yorks-crime-crisis\/\">Not for nothing has Hochul been smug about it all<\/a>. And why shouldn\u2019t she be \u2014 starting with a commanding party-enrollment advantage, working New York\u2019s pay-to-play culture without a trace of conscience, and showing strong poll strength out of the gate?<\/p>\n<p>But there\u2019s a difference between smirking self-confidence and brazen contempt. And Kathy Hochul shows a lot of the latter.<\/p>\n<p>Is she a progressive true-believer, as she projects, or just a cynical fellow traveler in the Andrew<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now they\u2019re just mocking us.
