Adams calls James’ fare-beating probe necessary
Attorney General Letitia James is acting in a manner “responsible and responsive to the concerns of communities” by launching a state investigation into whether the New York Police Department is targeting people of color in fare evasion summonses in the subway system, according to Borough President Eric Adams.
Adams, a retired NYPD captain, said the rights of all New Yorkers must be respected.
