The perpetrator in a high-profile stabbing case from June 2021 was sentenced to five years of probation and supervision programs at San Francisco Superior Court Friday, despite arguments by the prosecutor that the attacker should be imprisoned for the crime.
Anh “Peng” Taylor, a Chinese and Vietnamese immigrant who was 94 years old at the time of the attack, was stabbed multiple times in the city’s Lower Nob Hill neighborhood in broad daylight when she was walking down the street. Caught on camera during a period of high-profile attacks on Asian Americans, the incident shook the city.
Taylor fell “in pain, fear and disbelief” after the attack, the District Attorney’s Office said in court documents. Ultimately, Taylor survived the attack.
Police soon arrested Daniel Cauich, who was charged with attempted murder, elder abuse and assault while facing other burglary charges in a separate case.

On Friday, almost three years after the incident happened, the prosecutor from Jenkins’ office and Lisa DewBerry, who is Cauich’s defense attorney, appeared in court after Cauich pleaded guilty to multiple charges.
The judge, Kay Tsenin, read the sentence and said that Cauich can avoid jail time but is required to enter probation and a strict behavioral and mental health treatment program, which means he will be under intensive supervision in a facility with limited freedom until he successfully finishes the program.
The court combined the attack and another burglary case for this sentence.
A program called the Intensive Supervision Court—intended for high-risk probationers as an alternative to state prison—will decide later what specific programs Cauich will undergo. If he violates any probation rules, he will be sent to prison.
“I am giving you one last chance to stay out of state prison,” Tsenin said to Cauich during the hearing.

American governments, from local all the way to the federal level, are evil trash. No American citizen deserves to be treated like this.
This vicious criminal just got probation.
So I’ve got to ask. Where is the Tong when you really need them?
To all of you who have never had to deal with the liberal’s “Probation” scheme, it’s the biggest joke the commie libs have ever played on law-abiding Americans. A real laugher. “Judges” who hand out sentences of “probation” should be ashamed of themselves. The criminals laugh at them fools in black robes.
My tagline
Idiot soft touch judge... more like ‘soft in the brain’.
A Hispanic man stabbing an elderly Asian woman doesn’t qualify as a hate crime in San Francisco?
I suppose some animals must be more equal than others.
attempted murder.. probation
protest on J6.. years in prison
exaggerate your real estate value... 500 million fine
protest at the capital... years in prison
attempt to murder and old lady... probation
our entire system of justice is broken
The guy was homeless addict at the time of the stabbing.... a neuropsychology report, stated that said Cauich had experienced trauma and brain injuries, leading to mental health issues and a substance-use disorder. (Daily Mail report)
Another drug addict walks.....wash and repeat.
Asians are just proto Whites, anyhow./sarc.
Yah. Too bad that the J6 defendants didn’t get their day in court in San Francisco.
Oh wait, there is still hope. Some of them haven’t had their day in court ... yet!
Judge Kay Tsenin
Executing the feral would accomplish the same thing. No state prison time needed.
Criminal record....
So members of the jury, this means he is like tens of millions of us in today’s America, and may I say you are a jury of his peers in this courtroom.
The very thought the prosecution could try to put him in prison instead of probation is, well, shocking. /S
I just love those given one last chance, when they gave their
victim zero chances to survive.
This is one lucky lady, and this whole thing wreaks of why
I hate Leftists.
As far as I am concerned, they could have given him the
death penalty. He tried to kill her.
