Homeless convicted sex offender terrorizes women in the East Village: ‘Ticking time bomb’
The New York Post ^ | 07/15/2023 | Dean Balsomini

A homeless, convicted sex offender has been terrorizing women in the East Village – and they’ve reached out to The Post for help.

Fritz Marseille — who spent five months in jail last year for allegedly groping two women — hangs out between East 3rd Street and East 5th Street along Second Avenue, allegedly accosting women who ignore his advances, witnesses said.

But he took his alleged misdeeds to another level when he lurked behind Kristen Booth last month and declared, “I’m going to f–king rape you,” the shaken digital artist told The Post this week.

Booth, 49, who was with neighbor Christine Rucci, 60, told Marseille, 38, to “get the f–k away from me!” and the two women screamed “rapist!” to get the attention of others and ward off Marseille during the June 17 incident on the corner of East 5th and Second Avenue.

It’s very clear he does have some mental health and addiction issues. He is homeless. But I’m at critical mass with that excusing the fact that he is a criminal. He’s followed me before,” Booth said, noting she now carries pepper spray.

Booth lodged a complaint against Marseille with the NYPD, one of five she’s filed against him since Sept. 2020.

Rucci, who carries a safety alarm, said Marseille’s revolting antics include drug dealing, urinating, defecating, and masturbating in and around their East 5th Street buildings. She called him a “predator” and a “ticking time bomb.”***

Lately, the homeless man has become “more aggressive,” said an employee at Coffee Project on East 5th.

Local cops from the 9th Precinct “do nothing,” fumed Rucci, who claims to have been verbally abused by Marseille.

Why are these ladies not CCWing?

This creature is disturbing the peace at a minimum. Why is his behavior tolerated?

” hangs out between East 3rd Street and East 5th Street along Second Avenue,”

They know where he is. They know when he is there. They know his back ground.

Not saying I would ever condone all the women in the neighborhood investing in baseball bats and dealing with it themselves and “no one saw nuthin” but I would.

“It’s only a matter of time before it goes beyond harassment and groping and when it escalates to rape, then the Mayor, NYPD, the DA’s office, and judges will take notice,” Rucci seethed, adding, “I for one don’t want to wait.”

Uh, no they won’t.

An accidental bump in a homeless encampment not a problem.

As for cities... I don’t go to any city anywhere. They’re shxtholes full of szzholes. I prefer not being able to see my neighbors and surrounded by wilderness.

Murders happen all the time ... Solving them in NYC is about 50/50.

Rapes are already happening and they aren’t taking notice now anyways.

They won’t when it happens to you either.

And....has become “more aggressive.”


Permit me to quote the first Death Wish screenplay again, please.

Paul Kersey : Nothing to do but cut and run, huh? What else? What about the old American social custom of self-defense? If the police don’t defend us, maybe we ought to do it ourselves.

Jack Toby : We’re not pioneers anymore, Dad.

Paul Kersey : What are we, Jack?

Jack Toby : What do you mean?

Paul Kersey : I mean, if we’re not pioneers, what have we become? What do you call people who, when they’re faced with a condition or fear, do nothing about it, they just run and hide?

Jack Toby : Civilized?

Paul Kersey : No.
