Description

A former city correction officer is going to federal prison for two-and-a-half years for smuggling contraband into jails in exchange for bribes. Meanwhile, New York City police are looking into a viral video of a man making Islamophobic comments towards a street food vendor on the Upper East Side. Finally, amidst Mayor Eric Adams' proposal for major budget cuts across city services, community composting groups are bracing for potential reductions. WNYC’s Michael Hill speaks with Justin Green, Executive Director of the environmental non-profit Big Reuse, and Councilmember Sandy Nurse from Brooklyn's 37th district, to discuss the potential impact of these cuts.
