Mayor Eric Adams give his first substantial comments on Jordan Neely's chokehold death in a closed press event that was live-streamed on Wednesday.Adams would not comment about whether he believed the Marine veteran who held Neely in the chokehold should be charged, instead he focused on reform and how to better support the city's homeless and mentally ill.
He said that if they are found to be unable to take care of themselves, violent, or in need of mental health care, they will be brought to the hospital to receive that much-needed care. Attorneys for Neely's family had been asking Mayor Adams to give them a call.
