This #TransDayOfVisibility , I'm asking everyone to lift up my beautiful baby sister Layleen Polanco, who died of a seizure in solitary confinement at Rikers.
We cannot allow Governor Kathy Hochul to gut the bail laws so more families suffer like mine has.
My statement.
Please read my new article against Governor Kathy Hochul’s bail plan. Rikers is killing so many people like it killed my sister Layleen. Hochul wants more ppl to suffer. Carl E. Heastie & Sen. Stewart-Cousins rejected her plan but she's still trying. We HAVE to stop it! nydailynews.com/opinion/ny-ope…
Please Ndaba Mandela when you meet with Mayor Eric Adams today, tell him Solitary Confinement is torture and deadly. Solitary Confinement killed my sister. #JusticeforLayleen
OPINION | Ban solitary confinement in NYC now
On the day of her passing, Layleen Polanco was locked in solitary for a few hours before she had a seizure. A video shows correction officers laughing as they look in rather than trying to help Melania Brown
