Gov. Hochul told to leave slain NYPD officer's wake

One of the most dangerous situations for police officers is the traffic stop followed only by domestic violence calls.

Services were held for Jonathan Diller, 31, a New York City Police officer who was gunned down at a traffic stop by a career criminal Guy Rivera, a scumbag with 21 arrests to his name. Officer Diller leaves behind a wife and one-year-old son.

President Biden was in New York but did not attend the funeral nor the wake as he was busy raising cash for a reelection bid. However, New York Governor Kathy Hochul (D) did attend because there would be cameras and reporters and it would look good for her, or so she thought.

According to a New York Post report, Hochul arrived on the second day of viewing at the Massapequa Funeral Home Thursday afternoon. She was there no more than ten minutes when she was told that her presence was not wanted and, according to the Post, someone was heard saying "Get her outta here."

Upon her exit, she was having a somewhat heated confrontation with a man in a black suit, and as she exited the funeral home, she was met with applause by several cops.

Sergeants Benevolent Association president Vincent J. Vallelong sent a letter to the members of the New York City Council earlier in the week warning that they not attend. He said that they were morally responsible for Diller's death, adding that their presence would be “a stain on the legacy of a true hero who made the ultimate sacrifice.” He is exactly correct.

President Trump did attend Officer Diller's wake and his presence was totally accepted.

Let that contrast sink in.
