I’m looking at Google street view, the top of the park stairs are really elegant and inviting. And if it’s truly THAT unsafe why aren’t there full time security and NYPD post there?


It's called being aware of your surroundings in the middle of a city - plus the history with Morningside Park and Columbia goes back decades. It's really not shocking at all unless you've never left suburbia. NYC and Columbia are very safe these days but yeah, most people knew not to go into that park alone.


How would someone from out of state know anything about that?


My heart breaks for the horror that poor child must have felt being violated by this monster. May she Rest In Peace for eternity.

The monster will be fresh meat in the system and will receive was is deserved.


It is very sad when a young woman can't go jogging next to her college. Hopefully the 3 hood rats get decades of time. It is unbelievable the posts on here
defending the hood rats due to socioeconomic status. If it was your daughter, wife or mother savagely killed by hood rats you would not be defending the murderers.


Agreed! Enough of this weird PC nonsense of excusing what really were wasted lives. Too bad that your life was hard. These wastes of life should be the dead ones. Not a promising young person.

Campus security cannot provide anything in a city park.

Morningside Park is not part of Columbia's campus.

It really gets me that this occurred at 5:30pm. That is horrifying.


I know it seems unlikely if you don't know the area well, but the spot she was killed is desolate. There just isn't much traffic or pedestrians - the park is wooded and the hill over there is quite steep. It is absolutely not a busy area over there near a park known for trouble.

Shame on NYC for allowing hoodlums to rule a taxpayer funded park. Time to bring back stop and frisk.

"Barnard/Columbia has a mandatory orientation program known as 'Under One Roof'. There, the one thing drilled into us more than anything was that calling Harlem and/or the parks “dangerous” was super racist-we were told to think they were super safe. Gentrification was also racist, with privileged taking from lower means. They would chastise anyone as a racist if they voiced any concern in regards to safety."


NP. Stark contrast here to the late 90s, when we were warned at orientation to AVOID Morningside Park. Like, it was explicitly named as an unsafe place for us to go. (Riverside was fine though.)

Do we put monitored security cameras on public streets and public locations?


Cameras don’t save lives ,they just help solve crimes after the fact.

People don’t think about things like this when they’re sending their kids off to great schools like Columbia, Barnard, Fordham, Hopkins, od Catholic.
My dd’s boyfriend grew up in the Bronx. Even the locals don’t go out alone in many areas. Especially around Harlem and the Bronx.


You do realize that “the Bronx” is an entire borough, right?

There is no doubt, none, that these killers are the epitome of evil and deserve ever descriptive adjective thrown at them.

I thought about other non-black killers and rapists. Other than evil and heinous, most description of, let's say Dylann Roof who also purposely killed, were mentally ill and crazy, I don't recall anybody saying 'stop and frisk' whites near black or Jewish places of worship. Nor calling him a swamp rat while describing the Barnard killers hood rats.

Why is it there is no hesitation to call the Barnard killers the despicable names they rightfully deserve but more civilized condemnation of people who slaughter babies in classrooms, theatres, etc?

Mentally ill and crazy are reserved for a certain class while the vilest nouns are reserved for another group. I think if the shoe fits on both sides of the fence, we, you know.

Wrong. Trash is trash no matter the color or neighborhood. You, dear friend, are a tad bit over sensitive. These hood rats are exactly why every PD should stop and frisk.

I’ve found under 18 violent criminals’ Facebook pages quite frequently. Why and how does THIS kid’s profile get wiped within like an hour after his name hit NYC media? Who at Facebook has that job and what it the motivation?

Completely agree......it’s a matter of probability, not racism.

Other students have been mugged by 13 year olds in
the same area. When reported to the cops the person
mugged was told that the police knew the kids doing the mugging but because the muggers were minors nothing could be done.

I'm sure his public defender did it.

It is almost unbearably sad.

And when you read about the student, I am sure that all of us see our own children. She sounds like she was full of life and potential.

I say: pray for the parents. And feel very grateful if you have a child who is healthy and happy, still in the world this holiday season.
