MAYOR ADAMS’ STATEMENT ON INDICTMENT OF ASSAMAD NASH FOR MURDER OF CHRISTINA YUNA LEE

 

New York City Mayor Eric Adams today released the following statement after Assamad Nash was indicted in Manhattan for the murder of Christina Yuna Lee last month:

 

“Today’s indictment of Assamad Nash is another critical step towards delivering justice for the brutal killing of Christina Yuna Lee. I want to thank the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office, as well as the NYPD’s 5th Precinct and Emergency Services Unit, for their work in taking a dangerous individual off the streets. The new emergency taskforce we’re creating will address the intersection where public safety, mental health, and homelessness intertwine, and is our latest effort to support the AAPI community during these troubling times. As we mournfully commemorate the one-year anniversary of the horrific Atlanta spa shootings, I want members of our AAPI community, and all New Yorkers, to know that we are working around the clock to put an end to this violence and ensure that people in every neighborhood can feel safe in our city.”
