Here in New York City, a suspect has been arrested in the fatal stabbing of a 35-year-old woman Sunday inside her apartment. The man had followed Christina Yuna Lee from the street and into her building. Lee is the latest victim in a string of anti-Asian hate crimes in New York and around the country that have intensified since the beginning of the pandemic. Assemblymember Yuh-Line Niou, who represents Lee’s district, decried the mounting violence and called Sunday’s killing a “worst nightmare scenario.” Lee was a Rutgers University graduate and worked for a digital music platform.
