Inmates committing crimes after coronavirus release ‘unconscionable’: De Blasio

By Julia Marsh and Jorge Fitz-Gibbon, NY Post, April 20, 2020 | 11:47am

It is “unconscionable” that Riker’s Island inmates who were released due to coronavirus concerns are committing new crimes, Mayor Bill de Blasio said Monday.

“I think it’s unconscionable just on a human level that folks were shown mercy and this is what some of them have done,” the mayor said during his morning briefing Monday, which came on the heels of a Post report outlining the issue.

De Blasio said the number of re-offenders remains relatively small and said the city was “buckling down” on monitoring and supervising released prisoners.

“We do see some recidivism. I have not seen a huge amount but any amount is obviously troubling,” he said.

“We’re going to just keep buckling down on it, making sure there’s close monitoring and supervision to the maximum step possible. And the NYPD is going to keep doing what they’re doing.”

More than 1,400 city inmates have been granted early releases due to concerns of the spread of coronavirus inside jailhouses, Hizzoner said.

The Post reported Sunday that at least 50 of the newly released Riker’s Island prisoners were rearrested for new crimes in recent weeks — and in some cases were cut loose again.

The Legal Aid Society, Bronx Defenders and other legal defense groups have been petitioning courts since the outbreak of the deadly global pandemic, arguing that inmates, particularly those who are older or have medical conditions, are more vulnerable to the deadly bug within the confines of city jails.

The releases have helped drop the inmate population at Riker’s Island under 4,000 for the first time since the World War II era, city officials said.

City officials said last week that more than 300 inmates and 500 correction department employees have tested positive for COVID-19, with at least two inmates killed by the virus.

Hello. They’re called CRIMINALS for a reason. The several murders and other outrages should be laid at De Blasio’s feet. Not that he cares.

I’m sure it was also a surprise to him that after telling New Yorkers to go out, mingle & even eat in Chinatown in March that NY became the epicenter of the corona virus affliction. Wonder if New Yorkers are grateful for all he’s done for them.

I’d bet he has a drivers license to use to vote. He looks like another good DEM prisoner needing to be released. We give licenses to everyone in NJ for FRAUD votes !

I hate to say this about anyone, but that is the single most terrifying face and eyes I have ever seen. It looks like one of those rare cases of outright possession to me.

Guinea Goombah wannabe DeBlasio is too stupid to realize those who have chosen criminality as a way of life, COMMIT CRIMES. Talk about a dumadego….

Agreed. In my time as a correctional officer at a medium security state pen, the recidivism rate was 70% for GP (the general population) and 80% for drug offenders.

There is no brilliance behind bars.

While NY and NJ release CRIMINALS from prison, for us law abiding legal Americans in NJ it is a CRIME to look at flowers from IN YOUR CAR!

New Jersey Bans Looking At Flowers While Driving – Viewing Flowers from Inside a Vehicle is a Subversive Activity…
Posted on April 20, 2020 by sundance

Comrades, let this serve as a warning to like-minded subversives who would attempt to defy the lock-down orders of Commissar Phil Murphy. If wrong-thoughts continue to be expressed, it may become necessary for the Ministry of Coronavirus Compliance to deduct 500 credits from your social compliance score. Please do not put the Ministry in the position of having to make such decisions. Compliance is in your best interest.

In the latest example of Blue State enforcement of unilateral decrees by a state governor, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy bans driving through Tulip farms. Yes, New Jersey, looking at flowers from inside your vehicle is a subversive activity against the interests of the state…. Non-compliance will not be tolerated.

The farm was allowing residents to drive through their tulip fields to see the spring colors as the flowers bloom. However, apparently fearing transmission of the Wuhan Virus from non-compliant vehicle operators; potentially permitting tire-to-tire transmission; the state has ordered the farm to shut down.

De Blasio would rather have people thinking he is stupid than diabolical. Stupid doesn’t become Mayor.

Democrats have been getting away with this forever. People see them as stupid or misguided but well intended….they’re not well intended.

Is stupidity a requirement to be a democratic mayor/governor/congressperson? What did he expect. That’s what criminals do, commit crimes. That’s why they are in prison.

Those being released should sign a “Get Out of Jail Free Stipulation Agreement” that says any crime committed and they return to jail with sentences doubled and no possibility of parole. They also lose the ability to vote forever.
