Zohran Mamdani is mourning the death of a 'New Yorker on Rikers' but failed to mention the 'New Yorker' was charged with hacking up two strangers with meat cleavers

"I am deeply saddened by the death of a New Yorker in City custody at a jail on Rikers Island early this morning. My thoughts are with his family and loved ones as they grieve this loss."

He then says he's working to close Rikers Island as soon as possible

Clarence Woodward was arrested after police say he walked into a Bronx laundromat and attacked the 2 strangers without provocation.

He had been arrested 27 times and had been paroled 1 month before the killing.

Woodward was found by a correction officer - in medical distress - around 5 a.m. during a tour of the Center.

Staff and EMS treated him, and he was pronounced dead at 5:40 a.m.

Mamdani promised investigation “as quickly as possible.”

Correction Commissioner Stanley Richards, a convicted felon, also offered condolences and said the death would be investigated.

However, Mamdani did not offer condolences to the man Woodward allegedly hacked to death and the second man he seriously injured, nor did he vow a rapid investigation.
