Malliotakis praises Parole Board’s Lennon killer decision
Assemblymember Nicole Malliotakis is glad Mark David Chapman is a “Nowhere Man” — as in he’s going nowhere.
The Bay Ridge lawmaker said she is pleased with the Aug. 23 decision by the New York State Parole Board to deny a bid for parole by Chapman, the murderer of music legend John Lennon.
“Today’s decision by the New York State Parole Board on Mark David Chapman was the correct one and the board should be applauded for their action. Going forward they need to be as judicious in their actions on the cases of all murders; including those whose victims are not celebrities,” Malliotakis said in a statement issued on the day the board’s decision was announced.
