About this episode
Prosecutors say Rikers Island Correctional Officer Anthony Martin Jr., accused of sexually assaulting at least two women in jail, was arraigned Monday on allegations that he lured a woman to his Springfield Gardens home by pretending to be a TV producer and then raped her. Meanwhile, eligible New York families have until Tuesday, September 3rd, to apply for a new food benefits program providing up to $120 per child in EBT benefits. Plus, the U.S. Open saw a record-breaking 75,000 fans at the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center on opening day. Finally, the state is investigating potentially toxic air in 100 blocks around Brooklyn's Gowanus Canal. WNYC’s Sean Carlson speaks with Jack Riccobono of Voice of Gowanus and Walter Hang, founder of Toxics Targeting, for more details. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
