Zohran Mamdani: “The murder rate is down by more than 57% in Brooklyn, more…”

“When you compare these figures to last year, which had already set historic lows for gun violence, murders fell by a significant 28% year to date. The murder rate is down by more than 57% in Brooklyn, more than 44% in Manhattan, and there have been no murders on Staten Island in 2026. In fact, it has now been 178 days since the last murder on Staten island, the second longest period in recorded history.” (01:40–01:50)
