AND MEANWHILE AT THE ROOSEVELT.....

41 people have been arrested at NYC’s migrant Roosevelt Hotel since May — most for domestic violence: sourcesBy Larry Celona, Joe Marino, Haley Brown and Steve Janoski--September 3, 2023 7:29pmAt least 41 people have been arrested at the Roosevelt Hotel since the city turned the former swanky Prohibition-era hotel into a migrant shelter in May, The Post has learned.

Most of the alleged crimes stemmed from domestic-violence incidents, law-enforcement sources said Sunday.

The troubling figure surfaced a day after a 30-year-old migrant at the Manhattan hotel-turned-shelter was arrested for alleged child endangerment.

He was taken into custody just before 9 p.m. Saturday at the hotel at 45 E. 45th St.  His alleged victim was his 11-year-old daughter, according to police sources.  MORE AT 41 people have been arrested at NYC's migrant Roosevelt Hotel since May -- most for domestic violence: sources (nypost.com)

SPECIAL REQUEST-- NASHVILLE TRANS SHOOTER AUTOPSY OBTAINED

 (Note---still no sign of the shooter's manifesto however.)

WE HAD A REQUEST FOR THIS JUNE ARTICLE:

BREAKING: Nashville Shooter Autopsy Obtained--Mia Cathell | June 12, 2023 7:15 PM--Townhall Media--Townhall has exclusively obtained trans-identified mass shooter Audrey "Aiden" Elizabeth Hale's autopsy report months after the murderer massacred six victims, including three children, at a private Christian elementary school in Nashville, Tennessee.

Though the cause of death was apparent, a hail of gunshots from a pair of heroic Nashville police officers who didn't hesitate to neutralize Hale, the public has been left wondering what drugs were in the mass shooter's system, if any, at the time of the Covenant School rampage. Included in the 11-page document from the Davidson County Medical Examiner's office, a toxicology report found that the blood-, urine- and vitreous-humor analysis performed on Hale did not detect abuse of substances or alcohol.  Other sections document Hale's gunshot wounds in graphic detail, a sketch of a woman's body showing where Hale sustained injuries during the police shootout, and the case's summary, which notes that Hale was "a transgender person" "assigned female at birth."
