The migrant teen who allegedly shot a tourist and fired on NYPD officers in Times Square pleaded not guilty Monday to charges of attempted murder — as his lawyer begged the public to let the case play out in court, not on social media.
“This case … has gotten a lot of media attention,” defense attorney Adrienne Doreen Edward said of the Feb. 8 shooting allegedly committed by 15-year-old Jesus Alejandro Rivas-Figueroa, of Venezuela.
“I’m asking everybody to let this case play out in the courtroom — not on social media, or in the press, where it has taken on its own identity.”

Ohhhh no no no my fine friend. If a nearby Marine would have been lucky enough to choke him out and save people, and you were suing on his behalf, you would be clamoring to have it all over social media.
Now it’s your client’s turn.

Of course he plead not guilty. It is impossible to have a shooting in Times Square. The whole area is clearly marked as a gun-free zone.
But it's written in English. How is a illegal alien supposed to know he's not allowed to shoot the police there?

The state of NY doesn’t prosecute real crimes, especially if they are committed by a member of a protected group.
