Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s pick to replace New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio is an anti-victim bail reform advocate who would cause the city’s double-digit crime wave increase to spiral to uncontrollable heights, experts told the Washington Examiner.

Attorney Maya Wiley, 57, is one of eight candidates seeking the job of her former boss, who successfully enacted bail reform last year along with a $1 billion defunding of the New York City Police Department. Wiley has also worked for George Soros’s Open Society Foundations and Tom Steyer’s Tides network.
