Serial robbers have been wreaking havoc on NYC — and many still roam the streets
New York Post ^ | October 3, 2020 | Sara Dorn

More than 70 bandits have been arrested three or more times in the last six months for muggings and armed robberies, and many are on the streets as judges give them multiple shots at freedom.

Among them is teenager Anderson Ortiz, who was sprung three times this spring following arrests in Queens and Brooklyn — only to go on and violently mug an elderly Asian couple in May, according to police and court records.

Cops say Ortiz, 19, grabbed the 63-year-old male victim from behind as he walked along 60th Street near Bay Parkway, Brooklyn, punched him several times in the head and stole cash from his pocket. When the man’s 62-year-old wife bravely intervened, Ortiz’s alleged accomplice, Daisy Saenz, pushed her to the ground and grabbed her purse, according to the criminal complaint.

During the arrest, the NYPD also charged Ortiz with sticking up a Myrtle Avenue BP gas station on April 21. He put his hand in his pocket and threatened to shoot the clerk, while his partner then emptied the register, according to prosecutors.

Judge Kim Petersen finally set bail at $50,000 total in those two cases, $25,000 each. But a week later, another judge reduced it to zero.

“There were evidentiary issues with the cases and as a result the bail could not have continued,” said Brooklyn District Attorney Spokesman Oren Yaniv.

Ortiz remains free as a bird despite five pending criminal cases — in all of them, he was released without having to post bail.

“Second-degree robbery aided by another” — Ortiz’s top charge in two cases — is among two types of “violent” felonies that are not bail-eligible under the state’s new reforms. The law was intended to prevent people accused of non-violent offenses from being jailed because they can’t afford bail.

This is what New Yorkers voted for when DeBlasio was elected.

Learn to live with it or vote the bast**** out.

Robbery is a violent crime. Period. Robbery is always taking by force. Shoplifting is not robbery, it is larceny.

So if someone kills one of these bandits while he’s mugging would we get a second shot at freedom too in NYC?

The problem is the judge.

The judge is surplus protoplasm and is just no longer required

I’m so happy for NY City. The mayor and his voters are getting exactly what they wanted.

No, they are not. But their NY State representatives are beholden to other interests and won’t pay any attention to them. In many cases, these representatives run unopposed when an election comes around (the Republicans have abdicated) so there is no one else on the ballot.

That 60th Street, Bay Parkway incident isn’t far off my waking paths. In a normal year, I might even walk past there as Bay Parkway has a bus line and it runs past a few subway lines. I’ve walked instead of waiting for the bus. (Plus, stores with snacks ... )

What gets me is the Myrtle Ave incident — that is miles away on the other side of Brooklyn, and not easy to get to directly from Bay Parkway. They went looking for trouble, no two ways about it.
