A week ago, NYPD officers Jason Rivera and Wilbert Mora were shot and killed while responding to a domestic disturbance call in Harlem. Today was the funeral for Rivera, and the scene was incredibly moving:

The widow of officer Rivera spoke at a memorial service today, and her moving remarks included calling out the Manhattan District Attorney and the city’s crime policies that are getting people killed:

WATCH: Widow of @NYPDnews officer Jason Rivera slams @ManhattanDA though not by name: "We are not safe anymore. Not even the members of the service. I know you were tired of these laws, especially the ones from the new DA. I hope he's watching you speak through me right now." pic.twitter.com/zHPQ1scMgy

How heartbreaking that it’s come to this.
I don't think she's going to be making the rounds on CNN/MSNBC. https://t.co/m0Gxit63on

If she said something anti-Trump or about any other Republican she’d be getting invited on those outlets and all network news programs.
She was amazing and so brave. Who were the people that walked out right after she said that? There were several.

I know for a fact if I was in her shoes I would honor my husband but I would also be calling every single politician out by name who was responsible for his death. Every. Single. One.
We will keep watch, Officer Rivera. https://t.co/tLMRb5p5IG
