About this episode
Amidst Mayor Adams' warning of 15% budget cuts due to migrant arrivals, the Biden administration stresses its support for New York City. Meanwhile, Sandra Lindsay, the first to receive a COVID vaccine, is now the inaugural recipient of the now updated Pfizer booster, her sixth COVID shot. In Corona Plaza, Queens, the community still grapples with the effects of a street vendor market's closure by NYC sanitation police. Lastly, Leonard Mack, nearly 50 years on, was exonerated in Westchester for a wrongful rape conviction, with The Innocence Project's crucial intervention. Amanda Wallwin, senior policy advocate for The Innocence Project speaks with WNYC's Sean Carlson about the case. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com
