Sex fiend who nearly killed NYC man with sucker punch freed without bail
NY Post ^ | August 18, 2022 | Ben Feuerherd

A convicted sex offender who allegedly cold-cocked a man on a Bronx street — leaving him in a coma with brain injuries — was freed without bail Thursday after getting his attempted-murder charges reduced in the unprovoked attack.

Bui Van Phu, 55, was instead charged by the Bronx District Attorney’s Office with assault and harassment, both misdemeanors, for the brutal knockout punch last Friday that left 52-year-old Jesus Cortes unconscious on the street

...

The NYPD had charged Phu with attempted murder after arresting him Wednesday for the attack that appeared to have come out of the blue.

....

Phu allegedly confessed the crime to his parole officer

...

Phu and Cortes did not know each other, and there did not appear to be any interaction between them prior to the punch, police said.

....

Phu was convicted of first-degree sex abuse in The Bronx in 1995 and was sentenced to six years to life in prison, according to state records.

He was paroled in 2019 and is now registered as a Level 3 sex offender — the most serious designation — for sexually abusing the 17-year-old girl in 1994, according to state records.

The attack came just a day before Queens taxi driver Kutin Gyimah was beaten to death by five customers who allegedly attacked him when he tried to confront them for running off without paying the fare.

America has become a nation of lawlessness. I knew this was going to happen once the mentally deranged “demonRATS” took over.

Just when folks don’t have anymore faith in the media, here comes no faith in the law or justice. Liberalmania.

assault and harassment, both misdemeanors...

This is a clear case of A&B, Battery.

Not just any Assault and Battery, could be an elevated level or aggravated.

In pursuit of a Nobel Prize, I have been trying to rank the various groups on the protected scale. I agree with your assessment above, except that I’d place Muslims above them all.

‘Homosexual and or transgender trumps all.’

actually, black females trump anything else by a huge margin; the reins of power will be handed to them with hardly a whisper in the next few election cycles...

I get the legal system has to use "allegedly." I don't. The video is pretty clear showing the assault. IANAL, however, were I the DA, the attacker would be held without bond, have his lifetime parole revoked, and charged with attempted murder with the option to increase the charge to murder if the victim dies. NYC is absolutely insane.

Yep. The J6 crowd is still in jail while those BLM/Antifa people who burned D.C are still on the loose.
