Subway Shover Was Free On Assault Charges Because of New York's Bad Bail Reform

 



New York- Bad bail reform ties the hands of judges and requires the release of career criminals to allow them to commit new crimes.  They no longer fear arrest.

A New York City woman who shoved another woman into an oncoming subway train near Times Square was released from jail without bond two months earlier due to New York’s 2020 bail reform law.

Twenty-nine-year-old Anthonia Egegbara, who has been charged with attempted murder for pushing a 42-year-old Lenny Javier into the side of the No. 3 train in Times Square, attacked another female stranger on July 5th, according to the New York Post.

Police issued a ticket ordering Egegbara to appear in court on July 19th after she was arraigned on third-degree assault, attempted assault, and harassment but she was released without bail due to a January 2020 bail reform law that strips judges of the ability to set bail on third-degree assault charges and other serious crimes.

The Bail Post Episode No. 55- New York's Deal With The Devil Over Recidivism With Guest Jim Quinn

Image
Jim Quinn is a former assistant district attorney in Queens, New York. His family has lived in New York for four generations. Jim was on the front lines as New York slipped bail reform into the budget bill in 2019 and when it went into effect in January 2020. Jim has written numerous articles about the New York bail reform and its impact on crime. On this episode of The Bail Post we evaluate the reforms and their impact on recidivism. The biggest take away from this episode is that the politicians stated that they were willing to have more crime to address their political agenda. Four years later, we can say that they got exactly that. Crime is up 40% since before the reforms were enacted and defendants with a prior arrest are committing new crimes at record numbers. Recidivism rates demonstrate that a known group of people are committing a large percentage of crimes and the citizens are bearing the brunt of the harm because politicians refuse to fix the problems that they them

Manipulating Crime Numbers, Houston Edition- Investigation of 264,000 Cases Suspended for a "Lack of Personnel"

Image
  Houston Police Chief Troy Finner has released some new information regarding criminal cases that were suspended.  Last week, Finner identified 4,017 cases of alleged sexual assault administratively suspended for "lack of personnel" - investigations essentially kicked to the curb back to 2016. "Am I proud about this? No, I'm angry, okay, because I know we are better, and we are going to make it right, and we will make it right. We are still short of staff and some people say 2,000 officers, so we do the best that we can do, but that's not good enough when we are not investigating sexual assaults," said Finner. On Monday afternoon, Houston police released a new statement saying, "Our review of adult sex crime cases suspended with a code of "lack of personnel" has expanded to include all other divisions in the department found to be using that same code. We have determined that department-wide approximately 264,000 such incident reports since 2
