No one has become a victim because of this Bail Fail yet, but it's still a black mark on the policy:



Enraged officials in New York are calling on Gov. Kathy Hochul to repeal the state’s cashless bail laws after four suspects who were arrested in connection to the horrific dismembering of two people on Long Island last week were let back out on the streets.

<skip>

However, under the 2019 bail reform laws, the charges of mutilation and disposing of murdered corpses are no longer bail eligible, which means the prosecutors could not ask for bail, and the suspects could not be remanded to custody, Suffolk County District Attorney Raymond Tierney said in a statement Tuesday.

Ana Kasparian finally hits the wall on defending leftist bail policies.

What took you so long, Ana?

 
Police say Carlton McPherson, 24, of the Bronx, was behind the deadly shove at the 125th Street and Lexington Avenue station in an unprovoked attack at around 7 p.m.

McPherson has been charged with murder for allegedly pushing the unidentified man on the tracks. The victim was then fatally hit by an incoming 4 train as it arrived at the station and could not stop on time.

According to several reports, McPherson has a long history of mental health issues and has been collared several times.

He was arrested last October on assault, menacing, harassment and other charges in Brooklyn, according to the New York Daily News. The publication, citing court documents, reports that when he was arraigned, he was released without bail but was arrested again when he failed to show up to court.

But he was let out on bail again after being picked up by police, and a judge issued a second warrant. He was arrested for a third time for the initial crime in January, and bail was set at $2,000, which he paid, the New York Daily News reports.

Police arrested an Indianapolis man for murder after they claim he intentionally drove over and killed another man outside a bar just two days after being released from jail.

Police quickly arrested Maguellal for battery and criminal recklessness for that shooting and court records, obtained by FOX 59, show a Marion County judge initially gave the suspect a $100,000 bond.

Court records showed that the bond amount stemmed from the fact that Mageullal also had a pending criminal case of intimidation, illegal entry and drug charges in Johnson County in September.

However, for unknown reasons, Maguellal's bond was promptly lowered to $15,000, and he was released from jail just two days before Bank's murder.

Seattle Judge Veronica Galván's decision to release an armed robbery suspect who went on to allegedly disembowel a teenager – and a bevy of similar progressive decisions on the bench – make her "effectively as dangerous as the violent suspects she chooses to keep out on the streets," talk show host Jason Rantz told Fox News Digital.

Millorz J. Canales, a 17-year-old reputed member of the Norteño gang, was charged with assault, kidnapping and robbery on Dec. 17. Canales and an accomplice allegedly lured a 14-year-old to Lions Park in Everett, KOMO News reported.

<skip>

Weeks earlier, on Nov. 15, Canales was arrested for an alleged gang-related armed robbery in Seattle. He was released without bail on Dec. 2 by Galvan despite objections from the King County Prosecuting Attorney's Office and was awaiting trial when he allegedly mutilated the 14-year-old.
