‘Madman’ illegal migrant who serially assaults female docs, nurses in the Bronx is on the lam

An unhinged madman with a long rap sheet is allegedly targeting female doctors and nurses in The Bronx — with at least four attacks over the past five years, The Post has learned.

Edward Johnson, 57, an illegal immigrant believed to be from the Caribbean who came to the United States over a decade ago, has been arrested 23 times on charges that include gun possession, according to sources and records. He has another 42 arrests that have been sealed since he arrived in the US.

He skipped out on supervised release and is on the lam, authorities said — and has a dangerous habit of attacking female healthcare workers who try to treat him.

“Every time he goes to the hospital, he beats up a nurse or a doctor,” said an NYPD source.

He has logged four such assaults at three Bronx hospitals since 2019, sources said, and a repeat victim is Colleen Leahy, an emergency room doctor at St. Barnabas. She told cops she was attacked by him in July 2022 and again last September.

The hospital attacks date back to December 2019, when Johnson was arrested on assault charges for punching a 45-year-old female doctor in the mouth and a 61-year-old female nurse in the chest at Albert Einstein Hospital in Morris Park.

His last arrest was Jan. 13 at Jacobi Medical Center in Pelham Gardens, for allegedly socking a 26-year-old nurse in the eye after she tried to take his blood pressure, police sources said. The unidentified nurse suffered a bruised, swollen eye, and Johnson was slapped with assault charges.

After he skipped authorities by not complying with his supervised release, a warrant for his arrest was issued last month.

Let go on his own recognizance.

As if everyone in the country knows him, with his fake name, age, originating country, etc.

Our immigration authorities are ruled by madness.

Imagine if we release the most dangerous criminals in US jails back into the public, smaller countries are doing that to the USA, I read recently that Venezuela crime levels have fallen dramatically because Maduro has emptied his prisons and rounded up and deported criminals to the USA.

Think of the Mariel Boat Lift from Cuba to South Florida while Carter was POTUS, multiply that many times over and spread around the entire USA.

This nurse/doctor was attacked twice by the same guy?
Sounds like she is a slow learner, or likes to get beat up.
Time for self defense as in the old days has returned.

But whatever you do, do not attempt to blame the invasion of ‘newcomers’ for violent crimes. That would be politicizing the border crisis which is really Trump’s fault. /s

Good heavens, that’s a splendid idea! And so logical and easily implemented! Our incorrigibles can simply be relocated to countries whose denizens share a similar skin color and — if possible — language. A few articles of clothing and basic toiletries in a backpack, a bit of spending money and a one-way airline ticket.

He is just an imported weapon of our garbage establishment doing what he is supposed to do, attack Americans. There is no other explanation as to why he has been allowed into the country and released over and over again. Our rulers have our blood on their hands.

Any average American citizen with a record like that would be locked up for good.

He's been arrested SIXTY FIVE TIMES and never deported.

"...a warrant for his arrest was issued last month."

That'll put the Fear of God in him, I tell you!

The Melting Pot seems to have coagulated and hardened.

This guy seems like a great New York crime worker. His masters are not going to lock him up as long as he is working so hard for them. Those of us who are being replaced just need to get used to the new world our betters are preparing.

Hey, maybe “replaceables” is the new “deplorables”!

“Anarcho-Tyranny” at its best: “The combination of oppressive government power against the innocent and the law-abiding and, simultaneously, a grotesque paralysis of the ability or the will to use that power to carry out basic public duties such as protection or public safety.” This was written thirty years ago... And here we are, with a government fixated on enforcing compliance by normal, law-abiding citizens (TSA, mask mandates, etc.) while maniacs freely roam the streets attacking people.

But “Tishkabibble” is only interested in destroying President Trump.
