The deranged man caught on camera stalking a group of musicians through Times Square with a knife was granted supervised release by a Manhattan judge on Thursday evening.
Prosecutors recommended the release of 22-year-old Deqon Massiah. He was charged with menacing, harassment and criminal possession of a weapon, which are not bail eligible.
The judge agreed to release the suspect but said that the “highest level of monitoring is appropriate.”
Massiah appeared in court wearing the same red shirt with the word “sly” on the back that he had donned when an alert photographer snapped his photo Wednesday.
The suspect was clutching a blade as he snuck up behind the performers at the Crossroads of the World.
*** During his arrest, prosecutors said Massiah told the officers, ”Get the f– off me, they were coming after us.” *** Massiah has no criminal history in New York, but is on probation for a sex offender case in Georgia.

Hochul said that was Andy’s fault and she fixed it!
The judge should be jailed if this guy stabs someone in the future.
What’s with the signaling colors in solidarity thing there?
Makes sense. The Manhattan DA would not prosecute him anyway. He's too busy trumping up phony Charges against Trump.
Those eyes. Dude doesn’t look all right in the head.
Up front; I did not read the article
That said the man should have at least had a psychiatric evaluation before being released. For whatever they are worth.
“ What’s with the signaling colors in solidarity thing there?”
Band uniforms.
Somebody’s going to die because of this.
Yep, knew it. And has a S record. Released out to hunt on the streets, smh.
The judge should be the one who has to ‘supervise’ him. In his own home.
Looks like he’s on something.
Dems want more of this and that’s why they let violent criminals run loose. Dems and dems alone are responsible for the violent attacks.
he looks really smart. i sure hope he’s had kids to share those genetics.
Of course he was released..phew good thing his last name isn’t Trump or wears a maga hat otherwise he would be in deep doo doo..but you go on ahead, continue the stabbing all in clean fun
NUTCASE.
Should be in a mental institution.................
They probably gave him his knife back too.
Note the Post does not name the judge, prosecutor or defense attorney in this case. Seems intentional.
Dead eyes.
If I ever get called to Jury duty again, if the victim is a Public Employee, NOT GUILTY
