Liberal NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio Appointed Soft-On-Crime Judge Who Let Accused EMT Killer Go Weeks Before Rampage

NYPost.com:

A rookie judge appointed by Mayor Bill de Blasio refused to hold a mentally unstable career criminal on even $5,000 bail in a violent case last month — leaving him free to allegedly kill a city EMT. 

Bronx Criminal Court Judge David Kirschner, who has only been on the bench since June, balked at a prosecutor’s request to set bail for suspected gang-banger José Gonzalez on Feb. 26. 

Gonzalez had been hauled into Kirschner’s courtroom for getting violent with a cop during a robbery arrest — a crime he committed while free in another assault case, authorities say. 

Kirschner, who served two stints as a Bronx prosecutor that totaled around 12 years, instead cut the reputed Bloods gang member loose without any bail. 

On Thursday, just three weeks after he was let go, Gonzalez fatally mowed down EMT and mother of five Yadira Arroyo, 44, after stealing her ambulance, according to authorities. 

“Many of [his prior busts] don’t seem that severe, but after a while, a judge has to look at the numbers — 31 arrests is a lot,” said an NYPD source, who was shocked that Kirschner appeared to have ignored all the red flags in Gonzalez’s past.

As people mourn Arroyo's senseless death and outrage grows for Gonzalez's death, this angle will receive less and less play in the liberal media.
