The Rebbe welcomed the commissioner warmly to his home, and wished him much luck in all his future endeavours, thanked him for his service to the people of NYC, and for providing extra security patrols during the Yomim Tovim. The commissioner also spoke about his growing concerns regarding the recent spike in hate crimes in the Williamsburg neighborhood. He promised to do all he can to ensure that the people responsible for these crimes are apprehended. Yeshiva World News
