Today the funeral was held for NYPD Officer Jonathan Diller who was killed in the line of duty by a career criminal who had 21 prior arrests.
New York Democrats like Gov. Kathy Hochul and others might hope nobody notices what's really to blame for many similar tragedies, but the police certainly know. Hochul discovered that when attempting to attend the wake this week for Officer Diller:

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul quickly wore out her welcome at slain NYPD Officer Jonathan Diller's funeral as her photo-op went horribly awry.
NYPD make it clear that her presence was none-too-appreciated. When Hochul left, there was scattered applause from several mourners.
According to video evidence of the event, an unnamed man in a black suit made animated gestures towards the Democratic governor before she abruptly left the solemn ceremony.
Hochul had requested attendance from the NYPD, the NYPD Police Benevolent Association, and the Nassau County Police Benevolent Association in advance of her appearance. She arrived at the Massapequa Funeral Home on Long Island at p.m. for the second day of viewing, according to the New York Post.
One witness said that Hochul had engaged in an "animated" chat with Diller's 29-year-old widow Stephanie during the funeral before leaving.
“[It looked] like she was telling [Hochul] off,” the witness said of their exchange. “It didn’t look like the widow had a kind word to say.”
It looks Kathy Hochul will have to look elsewhere for a photo-op to boost her declining approval ratings.
But to those who asked the governor to leave the funeral out of respect for the family, they too deserve a round of applause.

Today Gov. Hochul's account put out a statement that rings hollow for many reasons:
Governor Kathy Hochul (@GovKathyHochul) ~ Flags are at half-staff on all state buildings today in honor of Officer Jonathan Diller.
His heroism and dedication to protecting New Yorkers will never be forgotten. Our prayers are with his family, loved ones, and the NYPD as they grieve this senseless loss.
If they cared New York's liberal politicians would be calling for an end to insane pro-crime policies:
Clifton Duncan (@cliftonaduncan) ~ {Replying to @GovKathyHochul} Not a single Democrat official in NY cares about this cop and everyone knows it. Just stop.
Sandy (@RightGlockMom) ~ {Replying to @GovKathyHochul} Did I miss your call on the legislators to change the no-bail laws that enabled the suspect to fell Officer Diller?
Paul A. Szypula (@Bubblebathgirl) ~ {Replying to @GovKathyHochul} NYPD Officer Jonathan Diller might be alive today if it wasn’t for Governor Kathy Hochul’s soft-on-crime policies that let Diller’s alleged mųrderer be on the streets. Hochul wasn’t welcome at Officer Diller’s wake as a result. The Governor should do what’s right and resign.
Instead, lefty politicians will continue to blame "gun violence" without the slightest bit of introspection.
Michael Scaglione (@Scagz89) ~ {Replying to @GovKathyHochul} I know they just asked you to leave the wake, but hopefully, New Yorkers will also ask you to leave the state next.
Hugh Jastle (@hughjastle69) ~ {Replying to @GovKathyHochul} Holy Lord lady, just take the L and hush! When you’re stuck in a hole the first step is STOP DIGGING!!
Anthony Cumia (@AnthonyCumia) ~ {Replying to @GovKathyHochul} Eliminate the deadly “Bail reform” before you hoist these flags back up!
We won't hold our breath waiting for that to happen.
