The mother of the maniac accused of knifing a Jewish and Asian man in separate attacks on Upper West Side cried out in court Friday as new details were revealed about her son’s alleged hate-filled rampage.
Raul Morales, 51, looked back into the courtroom gallery and mouthed “I love you, mom” after a judge held him without bail for Thursday’s bloodshed during which he yelled ‘‘Allahu Akbar” three times, according to prosecutors.
His mom, who said “Raul, I’m here,” then buried her head in her hands and wept as her son was ushered out of the courtroom.
Morales approached the first victim from behind near Central Park and “shouted Allah Akbar and plunged a knife into his back without any provocation,” Assistant District Attorney Megan Joy told the court.
The madman then allegedly walked to the nearby synagogue and “shouted justice for Islam and Allahu Akbar” before confronting the second victim four blocks away.
Morales allegedly “plunged a screwdriver” in the chest of the second victim, a Jewish man wearing a kippah, the ADA said.
The suspect then fled by foot to his apartment, where he was eventually arrested less than an hour later.
A knife and screwdriver were recovered following his arrest, police said.
The first victim was rushed to hospital with the knife still hanging from his back and it had to be surgically removed, prosecutors said.
Both victims remain hospitalized in stable condition.
Morales was arraigned on two counts of attempted murder, two counts of assault and one count of attempted assault — all of which are being tried as hate crimes.
The judge also ordered Morales to undergo a psychiatric evaluation.
He is due back in court on July 30.

"The mother of Raul Morales exits the courtroom after crying out during her son’s arraignment."
We must understand what we did to trigger him. Start a commission. It’s a mystery.
A 51 year old man loves his mommy.
Isn’t that always the way?
The most recent converts are the most fanatical.
Mom should be ashamed for birthing this disgusting animal.
“a Jewish man wearing a kippah…”
…who plans to vote for Madmammy again!
thank you! what the hell.
Disgusting that this POS is still alive and taken care of. Condolences to family and friends of the innocent victims. Justice?
Mom is just another victim of this piece of shit.
Centuries of mind suppression has destroyed their ability to think. These MoFos are mentally ill.
“Mom should be ashamed for birthing this disgusting animal.”
Or ashamed at her parenting skills resulting in this disgusting animal.
He is just nasty to look at. What is to love mama? I guarantee she has been wiping his butt for 51 years. She is useless, too.
By infecting her son with Islam His Mom failed him.
Soon it will be accepted in America every crime or murder committed while the perp is screaming “Allahu Akbar” qualifies the perp for guilt by reasons of insanity.
People have no idea what they have done by letting the two cults into America.
He probably is mentally ill.
Likely made life hell for his mom.
Time to realize that, like many European countries have found, Islam is not compatible with Western cultures. They should not be allowed to immigrate to or be a part of Western societies unless they denounce Islam.
