We get. We get. We get time. It's not till new. All right. Just letting you know about the D6 also. All right, Guy. It. Sa. Good morning. Last night, I signed an executive order appointing Attorney General Letitia James as special prosecutor in this sexual assault case at Cornell University. I want New Yorkers to understand what prompted that decision. Earlier this week, I called on Cornell to conduct an independent investigation led by outside counsel. (16:03–16:13)
