New York City Judges Releasing Violent Offenders
New York City judges are allowing an alarming number of violent offenders back on the streets, according to an analysis by the New York Post. Judges like Queens Criminal Court Judge Wanda Licitra, Manhattan Criminal Court Judge Valentina Morales, Judge Robert Rosenthal, Judge Marva Brown, and Bronx Criminal Court Judge Eugene Bowen have released a high percentage of alleged violent felons back into society during the first half of 2024. These judges have faced criticism for allowing violent criminals to walk free, despite the severity of their alleged crimes.
- Licitra, appointed by former mayor Bill DeBlasio, released 85% of alleged violent felons during the six-month period, including one individual accused of a particularly heinous act.
- Morales released 83% of alleged violent felons, including a convicted felon with a history of offenses.
- Rosenthal allowed 67% of violent offenders to go free, even allowing one individual to leave jail on supervised release before allegedly committing a spree of sexual assaults the next day.
- Brown and Bowen also released high percentages of accused violent perpetrators, leading to concerns about public safety in New York City.
Failures of Bail Reform Laws
These statistics highlight the failures of bail reform laws in New York, which have been criticized for allowing violent offenders to be released without bail. The judges mentioned in the analysis have faced backlash from law enforcement and the community for their decisions. The issues raised by the Post’s analysis point to a broader problem with the criminal justice system and the need for reforms to ensure the safety of the public and hold perpetrators accountable for their actions.
