Judge who freed ‘cop-killer’ apologizes: ‘I am truly sorry’
NY Post ^ | 10/24/2015 | Kevin Fasick

Now she’s sorry — five months ­after freeing the career drug dealer who is charged with murdering ­Police Officer Randolph Holder. The hero cop’s death this week, by a bullet to the forehead during a shootout in East Harlem, “breaks my heart,” Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Patricia Nuñez said Friday. “I know. I am truly sorry,” Nuñez said sadly when a Post reporter reminded her about the 33-year-old cop’s devastated family.

“And I will speak on the record” at sentencing, she added, referring to suspect Tyrone Howard’s Nov. 12 court date in a 2014 drug-sale case — the very one she had “resolved” in May by sending the gangbanger to rehab instead of jail, despite his history of three similar felony sale convictions and the advice of prosecutors. Nuñez then paused as she sat in her car outside her parking garage in The Bronx.

So she’s like saying “We’re good now?”

The "justices" in this case are complete morons.

They should be impeached.

If they found her with her feet swinging above the floor, I won’t be upset.
Judges like her free scumbags all the time through ultra lenient decisions, hurt the rest of us, and they never bat an eye.

When this happens, the Judge should be fired for poor judgement…THE qualification for the job! At least we don’t require that they commit hari kari.

She should be removed from the Bench and if she’s a lawyer, disbarred. Every Judge that gives a convicted felon the “benefit of the doubt” and that felon goes on to commit murder should be charged as an accessory.

Make judges, psychiatrists subject to criminal and civil liability for negligence. That’ll make them think twice before rendering decisions that result in the release of dangerous thugs and lunatics.

Well, she must had thought; “if it is good enough for Hillary Clinton, it must be good enough for me”!

She should be put in jail for aiding the killer.

She’s a pathetic liberal. Society would be better off if she were airdropped into an ISIS camp to first become one of their slaves, later to be bombed by Putin.

Charge her as an accessory to the murder. She might get off, but it will take her $20,000 to get there.

It’s funny I mentioned seppuku without seeing you already mentioned hari kari.

"...Holder had been a fearless in-the-trenches fighter in the NYPD’s war against guns..."

Really? The slain police officer wasn't killed by a gang-banger who had been set free, he was killed by a gun?

Did she follow up “I’m sorry” with “I resign”?

If the dead cop wasn’t a person of color judge Nunez probably wouldn’t have said a damn thing about it.
