🧵 Four years ago today, a Benz driver struck and killed Xing Long Lin, a Chinese delivery worker riding a scooter in Astoria. DA Melinda Katz refused to acknowledge the devastating loss suffered by Lin’s family and declined to hold the killer accountable. Please remember him.

Reported the jerk business on my walk to the gym that didn’t shovel their sidewalk so it’s currently a sheet of ice— they typically park 3 SUVs on the sidewalk, forcing people with strollers and mobility devices into the street just to pass 👍

Dude’s charged with criminally negligent homicide, leaving the scene of an accident [sic], and failure to yield to a pedestrian. Good. It’s a start. He should also lose his vehicle and his license, and the city should immediately install raised crosswalks citywide.

It is heartbreakingly cruel that a woman is simply walking across the street to get to where she’s going, and in seconds, she’s gone. Another SUV driver has killed an innocent person in NYC in a crosswalk. A family is about to have the worst holiday season of their lives.

A great thing about New York City is that we leave it up to individual homeowners, businesses, and landlords to decide whether they feel like clearing snow on the sidewalks that we all use to get around. If they don’t bother, oh well 🤷🏻♀️. Eventually it’ll melt.

Drivers do not care about you. They will murder you or maim you in a crosswalk, and the public will defend their right to do so. The cops will take the driver’s side, you’ll never see justice, and the road will never be redesigned to prevent this.
