Tragic Barnard College freshman Tessa Majors was allegedly in Morningside Park to buy marijuana when she was fatally stabbed by a group of teenage robbers, the head of the NYPD sergeants’ union claimed on Sunday. “What I am understanding is that [Majors] was in the park to buy marijuana,” Sergeants Benevolent Association president Ed Mullins told radio host John Catsimatidis on his AM 970 show, The Cats Roundtable.(Snip) A friend of the victim claimed to detectives that the 18-year-old Virginia native and musician told the pal she was headed to the Upper Manhattan park to buy pot Wednesday evening,

Cops are not your friends. Not only is talking about her reason for being in the park irrelevant, it's preactive jury tampering. The defense attorney will have a field day with this.

Another young woman making bad choices and paying for it with her life. It doesn't make the perps any less feral or depraved. Pity her poor family that has to deal with this knowledge in addition to her senseless death.

See, there was nothing the Mayor or the cops or the college could do about this, ever. Oh, add the Thug gov to the list since his new found love of pot gives everyone the idea that it is no big deal in NY state. cuomo is so dimwitted he thinks NY will reap all kinds of tax money on a weed that grows anywhere.

Chalk up another death to the "War On Drugs."
If narcotic drugs were legal - - Tessa could have safely walked to the local CVS or bodega to buy her weed.
I wonder how the supporters of the "War On Drugs" sleep at night - - after reading horror stories like this one.

I can't imagine the pain her parents and brother are experiencing right now.
I thought weed was legal in NYC. Regardless, the murder was beastly horrid.

How mean of the cops to purposely put this information out there. How could they do that to her family? The press continually covers up what a crime-ridden hole even their beloved Manhattan is!

Not smart to be out late at night in NYC dealing with criminals.
I can't agree with #1 at all.

"If you run with wolves, you will learn how to howl"
nevertheless..
perhaps those wolves that killed her should be exterminated..
or is that too HARSH for NYC?

‘ Meanwhile, the foolish victim ventures forth alone because the MSM portrays women as invincible (see Star Wars) and schools like Barnard say explosive and nonsensical black violence (particularly against women) is a myth, and that "white nationalists" are the one to fear’
Bingo ! According to ‘Law and Order’ all murders are committed by CEOs and/or their spoiled children.

That activity doesn’t warrant the death penalty.

I think the cop's point was that a policy of lax enforcement on minor crime leads to more serious crime. Broken windows theory. The victim and her killers were initially drawn together by the kind of petty crime that the city now tolerates. That would seem to be his point, judging by the quote at the end of the article. So he was really blaming the mayor, not the victim.

But, pot is legal in many states, and de-criminalized in many others. Are the NYPD trying to say that NY pot dealers are murderous thugs? No one should die just they're looking for a dime bag of weed, should they, NYPD?

In a few short years under dem all the murders will be because of the victim's fault.

She wanted marijuana that was brought to this country by murderous, psychopathic drug cartels.

Legal weed will be too expensive after all of the taxes and fees paid by the producers. The black market will still thrive.

Important to read his last statement before judging. Next thing you know she is the perp and the boys were all headed to med school. She ruined their lives. And the beat goes on.

#5, THC, the active ingredient in marijuana, is not a narcotic. And for those of you advocating the legalization of marijuana, it already IS legal for recreational use in several states. Check the statistics in those states for increases in traffic accidents and other problems since legalization.

The victim always shares responsibility. See? NYC is safe. Meanwhile, the PBA chief is saying what, the police don't bother to enforce street drug crimes? Police enforcement is so poor that a kid can't buy a dime bag without being beaten and stabbed to death? Meanwhile, the foolish victim ventures forth alone because the MSM portrays women as invincible (see Star Wars) and schools like Barnard say explosive and nonsensical black violence (particularly against women) is a myth, and that "white nationalists" are the one to fear.
