The parents of the FDNY paramedic fatally stabbed in Queens confronted Mayor Eric Adams at their daughter’s wake Monday and demanded he get control of the Big Apple’s spiraling crime crisis.
“Her mom and dad just took the mayor on,” said Suffolk County Legislator Leslie Kennedy, who witnessed the interaction, to The Post outside the Commack Abbey Funeral Home, where Frank and Catherine Fuocco were mourning their slain daughter, Lt. Alison Russo-Elling.
Catherine Fuocco did most of the talking.
An EMS worker who also witnessed the confrontation said the elderly parents didn’t hold back.
“There was anger, they definitely let him have it,” the worker said.
Hundreds of mourners gathered in the rain Monday afternoon to attend the emotional wake for Russo-Elling, who was stabbed 19 times just a block away from her EMS station Thursday while she was out grabbing lunch.
Peter Zisopoulos, who is in custody and currently undergoing a psychiatric evaluation, allegedly confessed to the crime and was charged with second-degree murder, prosecutors said.
