Petty larceny is an “A” misdemeanor punishable by up to one year in jail. It is the stealing of property regardless of how insignificant the value is. It's rather unfortunate that Giuliani's daughter didn't get any jail time for her crime(s).
She was a first time offender, no? You expected her to get jail time for a non violent misdemeanor?
I'm fine with tossing the likes of her in jail as long as we apply the same standard across the board again. The streets will clean up right quick if we start filling Rikers again.

Of course you know we won’t as leftists will start decrying the “racism” of disproportionate impact
No. Rudy was in office when things cleaned up nationally. He took the credit, but it's not necessarily due to him.

You realize that invalidates your whole opinion, right? You're basically saying, "I'm not interested in facts."

I would love to know that! I wish City Data had more international posters.
Giuliani was never well-liked as NYC mayor; his post-9/11 approval ratings were outliers compared to much of his two terms. If you search on YouTube, you can find clips of him insulting school bus drivers (it got personal) who were questioning him about his stance on their contract negotiations. In many ways, Giuliani was a bully. But enough people voted for him because he got results. Simply put, people were tired of the days where NYC was having 2,600+ homicides a year and thousands of more rapes, assaults, etc. People wanted their city back and Giuliani was the best candidate to do that.
Who cares about well liked. There are plenty of people I like who would make terrible mayors.
Guliani did a great job as mayor, Bloomberg kept it going and deblasio ruined everything.
He was the beginning of the end of NYC. When Bloomberg purchased a 3rd term it lead to the election of someone like DeBlasio. ANYBODY just not another rich politician running the city like a Fortunte 500 company. The bubble was doomed to burst eventually and Covid finally popped it.

Interesting take. So the NYC is on the move, changing its ways back for the regular folk?
Giuliani cleaned up Brownsville, East NY, South Bronx
LoL
The Stuy too
