Trump Consoles Bronx Family as 12-Year-Old's Stray-Bullet Death Spurs Crime Debate

President Donald Trump paused his Long Island crime-address to hug the parents of 12-year-old Jacob Freytes, a Bronx boy killed by a stray bullet, with Freytes’s mother Migdalia Martinez and father, retired NYPD Sgt. Jesus Freytes, in attendance; the moment occurred as he spoke about crime reduction and was highlighted by the White House. Freytes’s death has prompted calls for tougher penalties under 'Jacob’s Law,' while a suspect, William Ferrer, was arrested on second-degree murder charges.
