Father of Murdered Son Slams Socialist NYC Mayor Mamdani
Last week, 16-year-old Christopher Redding, an aspiring football player at John F. Kennedy High School, was murdered in New York City while trying to defend his friends who were being targeted by the attackers.
According to police, one teen suspect has been arrested, but several others are still at large. The incident occurred outside a McDonald’s at Broadway and West 238th Street in Kingsbridge as children gathered after school.
Redding’s coach shared a GoFundMe for the family and said, “Over time, I watched Christopher grow and make positive changes in his life, focusing on both his education and his passion for football. He dreamed of becoming a football player one day, and his commitment to his goals inspired everyone around him.”
“Christopher was defending his friends who were being targeted by a group of individuals who then opened fire on them in the Bronx.”
“His last act on earth was one of courage and selflessness, protecting those he cared about.”
In an interview with The New York Post, Christopher’s grieving father, Bryan Corley, denounced Mayor Zohran Mamdani and noted that because several suspects are still at large, he and his family fear for their safety and can’t even grieve in peace.
Following the deadly shooting, Mamdani called the incident “heartbreaking and horrific.”
He added that he is “thankful for the work of the NYPD not only in responding to them but also in the actions they are taking to ensure that we work to prevent them in the future.”
Mamdani’s words fell flat for the grieving family.
“They’re still out there, and nothing is really being done,” the dad claimed of the suspects still in the wind.
“Everything is a lie. Mayor Mamdani saying that the police is doing a good job. They’re not doing a good job. It’s disgusting,” Corey raged. “The things my family has to endure right now and go through. Everybody is just using my son for a meal ticket, a move-up for their goodness.”
“Even the mayor,” he said. “How can you make a statement when you haven’t even came and speak to the victims? How can you hold a conference and you haven’t even spoken to us?”
Asked if Mamdani or his team has reached out at all to the family, Corley responded “Hell, no.”
Police released CCTV and are asking for the public’s help in identifying several people wanted for questioning in the incident.
