Strolling through Washington Square Park the other night, I noticed a few bumper stickers with the slogan “Free Julia.” These referenced Julia Diaco- also known, if you’re a New York Post reader, as the “NYU Pot Princess.”
The “pot” part came from the 18-year-old NYU freshman’s recent arrest for operating a mid-level drug-dealing operation out of her freshman dorm room, while the “princess” is because Julia is the daughter of a millionaire construction contractor and grew up in a huge mansion in Rumson, the tony Jersey town where Bruce Springsteen also lives.
Now, perhaps the “Free Julia” bumper stickers are a show of solidarity from the NYU community, as “Free ___” stickers seem to appear whenever any female celebrity is in any sort of trouble (and including her). But in Washington Square Park? WSP has long been known as the drug-dealing capital of Lower Manhattan, so you’d think the pushers there would be thrilled that such competition is now out of business.
