Thanks to “criminal-justice reform,” you can rack up almost 150 arrests in this town and still get to walk when caught again.
Meet career crook Shaquan Seth, cut loose last week after five, count ’em five, shoplifting busts in Queens — less than six days after he got out of Rikers after a five-month stint for previous thievery — because New York law forbids cash bail for offenses like Seth’s.
No matter that he was no sooner back on the streets than he was eagerly reoffending, nor that he stole $600 worth of fancy candles, when the no-bail believers insist such theft is mostly out of need, like Jean Valjean.
No matter that he threatened to shoot a young female clerk who was brave enough to try stopping him.
He was put right back on the street.
So you’ll be reading about Shaquan Seth again in these pages; we hope it’s not because he’s made good on his promise to shoot someone.
But that’s what our “reformed” laws encourage: years of offending and reoffending as the perp gradually works his way up from petty crime to homicide.
Seth has already done jail time for larceny, robbery, resisting arrest and assaulting a cop; it’s clear he has much worse in him than candle theft.
He belongs in prison (or, conceivably, locked up in a mental institution).
The progressive lawmakers who’ve made it all but impossible to keep such menaces the street are still working to further empty New York’s jails and prisons — proving conclusively whose side they’re on.
It isn’t yours.

We HATE GOD.
Let’s be honest, we HATE God shining His light of righteousness into our lives, so, as a culture, we’ve shoved Him out !
How’s that working for you, America ??
In the good old days, there was NO SUCH THING as 150 arrests to a persons name. Because life in prison usually followed after the 5th or 6th arrest.
When Alcatraz was still in operation, not a single inmate of that prison had 150 arrests on their records. Some had only 2 or 3.
Shaquan should join Kenisha’s “Black People’s Militia” (from the article just above) so they can rob white people ‘on a more official basis’.
Although I suppose that Shaquan’s Momma is partially to blame, for saddling him with a name at birth that was designed to marginalize him forever in polite society.
he seems nice
.....a real gentleman...
We could fix NYS if we would secure our elections.
I don’t see the NYP agitating for THAT.
No doubt a Harris voter.
Obama, too
the English phrase describing sentencing of transportees to Australia is more than applicable for convicts like this; “for the term of their natural life”.
Just wait until the entire city is covered by Flock cameras- they’ll be able to release even MORE criminals.
And no one will have expired tags!
I say we meet the libs halfway. Okay, no cash bail. So just sit in jail until trial.
“150 arrests and he still walks: How NY laws push criminals to grow worse”
FLOCK APOLOGIST: “Well, without Flock Cameras, it would have only been 149 arrests. Therefore we need the government tracking every movement of innocent people.”
Bingo! A "headsup" to LegendHasIt for keeping abreast of Free Republic.
Selectivity/səˌlekˈtivədē/
Selectivity means the quality or power of choosing carefully. It describes how well a system, tool, or process picks a specific target while ignoring everything else.
> Okay, no cash bail. So just sit in jail until trial.<
It only takes one judge.
EC
150 arrests, how many convictions?
I could sympathize If his name was spelled Shaqu’an then he could blame mama and whitey.
unless you are a Republican J6 protestor! Then you get decades behind bars on your first offense!
"Resume for Shaquan, huh? Circular file."
