The heavily-tattooed Silberstein, who investigators believe sliced herself in the arm with a knife she's been toting in recent days, was taken to Bellevue Hospital for observation. She was not charged with a crime.
Silberstein's removal from the Zeckendorf Towers marked the end of a bizarre 24 hours for the fashion designer, who posted frenzied messages on her Facebook page alleging that Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly was conspiring against her.
"Who ever [sic] has a copy of the voice notes file send to FBI," she typed. "UR very smart - send same tapes to Homeland and CIA protect me from Ray Kelly FedEx it to Obama now!!!"
Silberstein, 42, posted one last time moments before she surrendered, asking people to call her lawyer. Police sources said Silberstein's doctor called 911 to say that his patient, the daughter of famed attorney Jerome Silberstein, was bipolar and off her medication.
This was not the first brush with the law for Silberstein, who most recently was issued a summons last month for sneaking a recording device into Bernie Madoff's sentencing.
