The fiend behind one of the most infamous mass shootings in city history — the “Palm Sunday Massacre” that left eight children and two young moms dead in Brooklyn in 1984 — has been quietly released from an upstate prison.
Christopher Thomas slaughtered the innocents in an East New York apartment on a rainy Palm Sunday — the blood-soaked culmination of a beef with the home’s owner, convicted cocaine dealer Enrique Bermudez.
Thomas, now 68, was released nearly three months ago and is believed to be living in Queens.
“He doesn’t deserve to be on the street . . . He killed poor, innocent children,’’ retired NYPD Lt. Herbert Hohmann, who led the investigation and testified against Thomas, told The Post on Friday.
Former NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly said Friday that Thomas’ “heinous crime” warranted the maximum penalty.
The killer was released from the Shawangunk Correctional Facility on Jan. 5 after serving two-thirds of his 50-year maximum sentence and fulfilling other criteria, including good behavior, said a state Department of Corrections spokesman.
“The parole board did not let him out,” the rep said.
“He had five appearances before the parole board and was denied every time. He doesn’t need board approval because he served the two-thirds.”

This POS should never be free. He should not even be living, but libtards think that what he did is not so bad after all.
Unbelievable.
Only 68 = still dangerous if the reasons he did this in the first place have not been addressed definitively. Our nation has lost its way.
Did he use an AR-15?
Has David Hogg been notified so he can vent his outrage at everybody except the Murderer?
8 people killed...
Put him in a remote controlled Uber.
oh I see...he’s not Caucasian.....explains a lot...
Our justice system is a joke.
He ‘ll vote first.
He can drive a vehicle into a crowd real easy.
...today he lives next to a day care center...
DeBlasio will probably hire him for “population control”.
I’m convinced that many of these mutants are being released from prison at this age because the corrections departments don’t want to pay for their medical care.
The Japanese have a very large geriatric population in their prisons. A number of old folks in Japan purposely get thrown in Prison for the health care they receive and for the camaraderie. A lot of lonely old people in Japan.
They “think” he’s in Queens huh. But he might be anywhere?

He was 33 when he killed them all. I’m not 60 yet, but I don’t think my world view has changed a whole bunch since I was 33. Although perhaps 35 years in prison changed him. For the better...or for the worse...., I do not know.
But - those kids are still dead, and he is enjoying life as a free man.
social justice
This is what happens when you don’t execute murderers.
