Deloitte, the employer of a woman killed by a deranged vagrant who pushed her in front of an oncoming train in Times Square Station last week, helped fund a non-profit that sued the MTA last year for laws barring people from staying in a subway station for more than an hour, arguing that it 'excluded' the homeless.

Michelle Alyssa Go, 40, a senior manager at consulting conglomerate Deloitte from the Upper West Side, died after she was shoved off the platform at West 42nd Street and Broadway at around 9:40am last Saturday, January 15.

Simon Martial, 61, who was charged with second-degree murder, told reporters that he committed the senseless act 'because I'm God, I can do it.' Martial's sister Josette Simon told outlets that he had been battling with schizophrenia for two decades and that he belonged in a mental health facility.

The group, along with another group and a homeless man, sued the Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) in February of last year for a new transit code that was adopted due to the pandemic in 2020.

The new code barred people from staying in subway stations for over an hour, staying in subway terminals after a train is taken out of service and banned wheels carts larger than 30 inches long by 30 inches wide.

The nonprofit sued the MTA for new policies that it said 'excluded the homeless from the transit system,' which barred commuters from lingering in subways for longer than an hour, in February of last year

The MTA said that the new code would facilitate 'public safety and help essential workers maintain social distancing,' but the Urban Justice Center called this reasoning a 'pretext to exclude homeless New Yorkers from the subway system.'

The Urban Justice Center argued that 'by banning these three activities, the rules ban the way that homeless persons, because they lack access to safe and secure shelter, use the subway system.'

In their lawsuit, the nonprofit asserted that the code was 'arbitrary and capricious.'

Doug Lasdon, the executive director of the Urban Justice Center, told outlets that the homeless should have the same access to the subway 'that I have.'

But Joseph Giacalone, a John Jay College of Criminal Justice professor, argued that the transit system should not be viewed as a homeless shelter because 'historically, the shelters aren't safe.'

'If the shelters aren't safe, what makes you think that putting the people who are attacking other homeless, letting them sleep in the subway, is a good idea?' he said.

The Urban Justice Center, which provides legal services for sex workers and on housing issues, made $25 million in the last fiscal year, primarily from government grants. Left-wing groups like George Soros' Open Society Foundations also provide them with donations.

Deloitte did not immediately respond to DailyMail.com's request for comment.
