Four men allegedly busted with weapons — including some that were loaded — by the NYPD’s new anti-gun unit were allowed to walk free within hours of their arrest, thanks to lax judges and bail reform, The Post has learned.
The NYPD said the new Neighborhood Safety Teams made 25 gun arrests in their first three weeks since launching in March, but The Post was only able to obtain court records or information for 12 of the cases.
Of those 12, just one man remains behind bars — meaning 11 of the defendants are back on the street, including the four who were cut loose with no bail. The others had posted bail that was set in their respective cases.
One of the sprung includes Tyquise Bell, 23, who was allegedly nabbed by NST cops on March 30 in the Bronx after they spotted a 9mm Taurus pistol inside the lower leg of his pants, court records say.
“I found it for sure. Two days ago. I’ve only had it for two days,” Bell allegedly told police during the bust, according to a criminal complaint.
During his arraignment the next day, the Bronx District Attorney’s Office and Judge Srividya Pappachan, a former public defender and a Bill de Blasio appointee, agreed to spring him on supervised release because the charges weren’t bail eligible, records show.24/suspects-walk-free-after-arrests-by-nypds-new-anti-gun-teams/
Judge Vidya Pappachan released Tyquise Bell after he was charged with gun possession.
Judge Laura Johnson released Marcos Malvar, who was allegedly pulled over with drugs and guns inside his car.
Judge Laura Johnson.... the psychomorphology, oh my God.... looks wicked, perverse, looks like she would put you in jail for stating science, like, there are only two genders. Typical ugly-on-the-outside-coming-from-the-inside face of a SJW.
Here is from 2014: "Mayor Bill de Blasio delivered another blow to New York’s Finest on Wednesday when he reappointed a Brooklyn judge who freed without bail two men who threatened cops just days after the Bed-Stuy double police assassination."
"Devon Coley was freed without bail by Johnson after making death threats against the NYPD on Facebook.
DCPI".
At least Pappachan is pretty, that may be all she has to her advantage, a little research about her:
- Chair, Working Group on Racial Equity in NY State Courts (the buzzword "equity" tells you a lot about what you need to know)
- South Asian Bar Association of New York (SABANY) (Because why not racialize everything???)
As I've stated a thousand times. The laws have been changed. It doesn't matter what the cops do or don't do. Any cop working this unit is a total fool.

This whole routine is a joke, but it's not funny to shooting victims.
There needs to be some kind of discussion here with those judges. There should be a system where they have to explain their decisions publicly on why they release people, if there is some way to quantify the public outcry.
It's just ridiculous that they can release people just like that, and not provide justifications.

I suspect strongly that the intent of the current "bail reformers" intent is to eliminate all punishments. I suspect there is some serious money behind non-incarceration, i.e. the "street pharmaceutical business."

Like, let poor slaughter each other, life for upper class goes on?

Well, the Senate majority leader, Andrea Stewart-Cousins and the Speaker of the NY Assembly, Carl Heastie , both alleged friends of the poor pushed that bill through. You may be onto something, since there is a lot of money to be made in street sales of drugs to poor people. No one cares about the lives ruined.
