About this episode
New York City Mayor Eric Adams says the Law Department is reviewing allegations of sexual assault in Rikers Islands Jails, even though the department is responsible for defending the city when it faces lawsuits. Plus, WNYC’s Liam Quigley reports there may be some obstacles in the mayor’s fight for a “trash revolution.” Also, WNYC’s Karen Yi spent time with some families deciding whether they should leave New York City as they struggle to find affordable child care and housing. And finally, Ms. Lauryn Hill and the Fugees cancel most of their tour dates, including a show in their home state, New Jersey. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com
