Manhattan public defender Victoria Ruiz resigns after caught tearing down posters of kidnapped Israelis

  • Manhattan public defender Victoria Ruiz has resigned after being caught on camera tearing down posters of hostages kidnapped during Hamas' Oct. 7 terror attack in southern Israel.
  • The incident at a vigil had polarized the staff at NYCDS, with some colleagues criticizing Ruiz's insensitive actions. Despite Ruiz's apology claiming the viral video misrepresented her actions and false accusations, she regretted taking down two posters with egregious depictions and words justifying killing children.
  • The Mayor's spokesperson condemns the act as hate and stands in solidarity with the innocent civilians affected by the war and the fallouts. The tearing down of the posters is seen as a deeply misguided act of disrespect to victims of terrorism.
