Man With Hate Crime Charge Pending Rants in 100 Centre St Holding Cell Then Is Released

Man With Hate Crime Charge Pending Rants in 100 Centre St Holding Cell Then Is Released by Matthew & Russell Lee, Patreon Substack SDNY COURTHOUSE, July 13 – A defendant previously convicted of smashing a subway rider in the face was in the 100 Centre Street holding call on July 13 waiting to see the judge in the presentment part, APAR1. Inner City Press was there.    Before he was brought out, loud voices were audible from the holding cell, including death threats. He was placed on the bench to the right of the judge and continued raising his voice.   Finally his case, a drug possession misdemeanor, was called.  The crime under current NYS law is not eligible for bail. But did the loud death threats change that analysis?   They did not. The prosecution merely asked to raise the level of supervised release. Even that was not granted. Also pending, as stated on WebCrims: "PL 110-120.00 01H ** TOP CHARGE **    AM , 1 count, Not an Arrest Charge Description Hate Cr/assault 3-cause Injury Count1 Arraigned, Pled Not Guilty PL 240.30 03 AM , 1 count, Not an Arrest Charge Description Agg Harass 2- Race/religion" With this hate crimes charge also pending, he was released - and proceeded to rant or at least speak loudly to his court appointed lawyer and social worker in the hallway.  If something more happens, who is to blame?
