1 00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:09,520 Speaker 1: We're talking about the so called belt reform, that's what 2 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:13,600 Speaker 1: they're calling it. I just don't know how to respond 3 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:23,400 Speaker 1: to the mirror Deblasio giving inmates gift cards, MetroCards, movie cards. 4 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 1: I mean, if you get a subpoena, you show up 5 00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:31,040 Speaker 1: to court, you're not supposed to get a gift from 6 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:41,920 Speaker 1: the government for showing up. Crime stories with Nancy Grace, 7 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:45,800 Speaker 1: New York City will be ringing in the new year 8 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,640 Speaker 1: with a new set of criminal justice reforms to combat 9 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 1: overcrowded jails. About nine hundred accused criminals are expected to 10 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 1: be released, and the city will be rewarding them with METS, tickets, 11 00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 1: movie passes, and gift cards for showing up to Critics 12 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:04,880 Speaker 1: say the program rewards criminal behavior. LaMere de Blasio is 13 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:08,120 Speaker 1: optimistic the plan will work in the world where we 14 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:11,680 Speaker 1: want speedier trials and we want the justice system to work. 15 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:16,559 Speaker 1: If small incentives are part of what actually makes it work, 16 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 1: then that's a smart policy. Starting January first, the bail 17 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 1: reform policy eliminates cash bail and pre trial detention for 18 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:28,679 Speaker 1: misdemeanors and most low level felonies, with exceptions like murder, conspiracy, 19 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 1: domestic violence cases, and sex crimes. When defendants are released 20 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: after arrangement, they'll be encouraged to show up for their 21 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 1: next court date with promises of sports tickets, subway passes, 22 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 1: and other gift cards. I'm having a hard time soaking 23 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,320 Speaker 1: in what I just heard and digesting that. First of all, 24 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 1: let me just start with I didn't know there was 25 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 1: such a thing as a low level felony. That's how 26 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 1: we call it a felony. If it's low level, it's 27 00:01:53,520 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: a misdemeanor, like shoplifting or jaywalking, snatching a plate out 28 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: of somebody's hand. That those are misdemeanors. Those are a 29 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 1: low level. When you get to felony status, nothing is 30 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 1: low level. You were just hearing our friend Hazel Sanchez 31 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: over at CBS two reporting with me right now to 32 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 1: break you down and put it back together again. Jason Oceans, 33 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 1: New York defense attorney Bobby Chica and former special agent 34 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 1: FBI star a Facebook watch series, Curse of Acucor. And 35 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 1: now to my favorite paper, The New York Post. Reporter 36 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:40,640 Speaker 1: Tina Moore, Tina, what the hey is happening? Now? What happened? 37 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: What's wrong with du Blasio? I think the idea is 38 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: to provide incentives to get people to come back to 39 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 1: the court. Now that you can no longer issue a 40 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 1: warrant for the arrest because they didn't show up, they're 41 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: trying to give them attentive Okay, I'm trying to take 42 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: in what you just said. Now that you no longer 43 00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 1: can't arrest them because they didn't show up, it's you can. 44 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:03,679 Speaker 1: You can. You can arrest them that they're going to 45 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 1: get out without any fail if you have no cash 46 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: bail now, so they're just gonna get right back out again. 47 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: So it truly is a revolving door. In Wow, we 48 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: wonder why over a million people have left the city 49 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 1: of New York. It's all it's all coming into focus 50 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: right now. Let me understand something to aam or with 51 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 1: a so called Bell reform, that's what they're calling it. 52 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: You don't put up a cash bond. You don't put 53 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:31,359 Speaker 1: up a bond. You basically get fingerprinted, you sign your name, 54 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: and you walk out the door. For some crimes. Yeah, okay, 55 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: what crimes would that be? Felonies like you pointed out, 56 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 1: I think assault would be one where if you slapped 57 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: somebody so you had an event of that recently, maybe 58 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 1: you slapped a stranger in the street and you were 59 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 1: taking you were arrested, but the judge knows it. With 60 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 1: Dell reform, they're gonna have to just release you with 61 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: outdale anyway. So they set a court date and they'll 62 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 1: let you go. And if you don't come back to court, 63 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: if you don't show up, what happens nothing. I mean, 64 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: this person I'm talking about about this this week hit 65 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: another person after they were released and which was arrested again. 66 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: So does this include burglary, drug offense, many drug offenses, 67 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: even some types of arson and robbery? Yes, yes, yes, Okay, 68 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 1: who said that arson is low level? Well who came 69 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: up with that? I've prosecuted so many arsons. Of course 70 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,039 Speaker 1: they were related to homicides. But how can that be 71 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,720 Speaker 1: considered low level? To you KNOWLESO passed in the law 72 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,160 Speaker 1: by the state legislature, So it's not it's not of 73 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: the city's doing, even it's what they have on the 74 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:39,719 Speaker 1: state level. That's true. But how can setting something a 75 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: fire and endangering the lives of so many, how can 76 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: that possibly be considered low level? I mean, this sounds 77 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: like crime pays, as is pointing out in the New 78 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: York Post quote The crime pays giveaways build on another 79 00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: Deblasio policy revealed by the Post last that showers freebees, 80 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 1: including Mets tickets, on prisoners. I'm sure the Mets are 81 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: so proud to know their tickets are being given away 82 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 1: two criminals, right, I think, I mean, did anybody ask 83 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 1: the Mets about this? Tina? I'm not sure about that, 84 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 1: but I think it's scared towards the children and the 85 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,839 Speaker 1: families of people who might have been, you know, in 86 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 1: trouble or arrested in jail. Tina, Tina, please understand. I'm 87 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 1: not picking on you, I know, but let me I'm 88 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: picking on Dublasia. Let me understand. And so we're expecting 89 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 1: a doper or an arsonist to give the Mets tickets 90 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:40,920 Speaker 1: to their child? Wait? Am I understanding that? I don't 91 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: think they're gonna be out in front of the stay 92 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 1: of scalping them illegally. I'm not sure who came up 93 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:47,719 Speaker 1: with the idea. Really, I don't. I don't. I don't 94 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 1: know what they're thinking. Was I have to been the 95 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 1: word incentive, providing incentives for these people to come back 96 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 1: to court. Um, but I haven't seen, you know, I 97 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 1: don't know who actually came up with the idea or 98 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 1: what their rationale was. Also from the post, who is 99 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: absolutely correct, Mayor Bill Deblasio, and miss he has no 100 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 1: idea how much his administration is actually going to spend 101 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: on tickets to movies and met games to entice criminals 102 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 1: and to showing up at court. Right, Bobby Chicone, former 103 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: special agent FBI, help me, Tina doesn't apparently seem to 104 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: be worried about this. You live in New York, right, Tina. 105 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 1: I'm concerned. I think everybody is here here. You realize 106 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 1: that there's a there's a movement right now to make 107 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,279 Speaker 1: a reforms to the reform, to actually go back and 108 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 1: change some things around so that we don't have our 109 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 1: hold on I've got to make a note of that. 110 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 1: Right now, there's a movement to make reforms to the reforms. 111 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: I guess, Okay, what are you saying, Chicone? We have 112 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: to we have to actually stop using the word reforms. 113 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:56,799 Speaker 1: These are not reforms. That's where the advocates are using 114 00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: to water down what's happening. This is a of the 115 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 1: structure of our system that has provided for the safety 116 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 1: of citizens and law enforcement. This is not a reform. 117 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 1: A reform is like chewing around the edges of something 118 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 1: and changing it. This is a complete dismantling of some 119 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 1: things that have been so ingrained in our system with 120 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: the purpose of providing safety. I can tell you as 121 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 1: someone who worked gangs in New York City in the 122 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: eighties and nineties. I worked Jamaican posses in Brooklyn, and 123 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: I worked in gangs in Washington Heights. I can tell 124 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: you they know this system. They are laughing now. They 125 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 1: are enjoying this new movement to make things easier for 126 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: the criminals. They will take advantage of them. And I 127 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: don't know if it's the law of unintended consequences, but 128 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 1: there will be people that get hurt and killed, both 129 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: citizens and law enforcement who because of this dismantling and 130 00:07:47,840 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: restructuring climbs TOAs with Nancy Grace, let me explain what 131 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 1: Bobby check In, former Special Agent FBI just said. In 132 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 1: my mind, Jason Notion's New York defense attorney, Jason, don't 133 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 1: even and your usual usual slippery as an ill way 134 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: try to argue with me about this. Every felony I 135 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: tried practically, I would say this is anecdotal ninety five 136 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: percent of the felonies that I took to trial. The 137 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 1: purp had been convicted before. It could be on a 138 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:40,199 Speaker 1: peeping tom misdemeanor, it could be on a shoplifting misdemeanor. 139 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 1: It could be on a simple assault misdemeanor. It could 140 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 1: be a bad check misdemeanor. But they had a record. 141 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: And now these people are not only not putting up 142 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:55,319 Speaker 1: a bond, they're getting a gift card, Mets tickets, movie tickets, 143 00:08:55,320 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: cell phone, what do you say, cell phone? Prepaid bird. 144 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 1: You know, the next time somebody, a doper comes in 145 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 1: your office, he's gonna empty out a pocket full of 146 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 1: phone cards as payment. Are you ready for filling them 147 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 1: on eBay? Listen? The number of the number of crimes 148 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: that now fall under this Bell reform is beyond what 149 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 1: you're just you know, never mind second degree manslaughter criminally, 150 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 1: well I'm adding this to my list. Second degree manslaughter, stalking, 151 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: stalking as a hate crime, UH, aggravated assault on a child, 152 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: stop stop. I can't write that fast. It's ridiculous.

That person who was arrested for running over 155 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,080 Speaker 1: someone and killing them all drunk is on the street again. 156 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 1: Aggravated vehicular assault. Wait, wait, let me correct you, miss 157 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: Tina more from the New York Post.

Okay, 161 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 1: so let's just be clear, they not only walk free. 162 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: I can't believe that people of New York are not 163 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 1: lying on the courthouse steps screaming and gnashing their teeth 164 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: over this, because the next time they get on the subway, 165 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 1: who do you think it's gonna be on the strap 166 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 1: next to you?

There've been a couple of lists put out 189 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: by the a's officers. Bobby Chicon, former special Asian FBI. 190 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 1: Every time I see miscarriacter justice, when the system screw 191 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 1: somebody over, I feel like I've been punched in the stomach. 192 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: Like when they make a mistake at trial, either intentional 193 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:04,080 Speaker 1: or unintentional. Somebody wants free, when somebody's wrongly convicted and 194 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: now this, I guess I've devoted as a crime victim 195 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: and as a prosecutor and victims rights, I've devoted my 196 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 1: whole life to the justice system. And I got to 197 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: tell you this has really got me upset that these 198 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 1: people are gonna, really what go in and go out 199 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 1: after they give their fingerprint and sign a piece of 200 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:29,199 Speaker 1: paper and these some of these are very violent crimes, 201 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 1: and now they're getting a phone card to go with it. Yeah, 202 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 1: you don't have to look at the resident rates and 203 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 1: things like that to know and to look at something 204 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 1: like this and know for a fact this kind of 205 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 1: movement will create more victims, more people, more citizens, and 206 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 1: more law enforcement will be injured or maimed or killed 207 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:49,200 Speaker 1: because of a law like this goes into a fact, 208 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 1: there is no doubt. Yes, it will help some people, 209 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,559 Speaker 1: and yes there are some some tweaks that need to 210 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,679 Speaker 1: be made to the bail system, but this total dismantling 211 00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 1: of it like this will create more victims, people, citizens 212 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: will be more at risk, law enforceable be more at risk. 213 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,559 Speaker 1: There is no doubt about this. When you start releasing 214 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 1: these people back, and because there is no more adaptable 215 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 1: person in our system than a criminal that knows the 216 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,720 Speaker 1: criminal justice system well, and they all do, and they 217 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 1: know how to use it and manipulate it to their advantage. 218 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 1: Question to Tinamore, New York Post. Okay, the New York 219 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:27,199 Speaker 1: Post states quote Mayor Bill Deblasio admits he has no 220 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 1: idea how much his administration is spending on tickets to 221 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: movies and Mets games used to entice accused criminals to 222 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: return to their mandated court appearances. Let me tell you something, 223 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: Jason Oceans, Deblasio is trying to hide behind the speedy 224 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 1: trial demand. A speedy trial demand, for those of you 225 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 1: that don't know, is when a defense files a motion 226 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 1: for a speedy trial and if the state doesn't give 227 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: you a trial with an x amount of months, like 228 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,319 Speaker 1: three to six months, it's depending on the jurisdiction and 229 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,960 Speaker 1: the time of the indictment, you walk free. If you 230 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 1: don't get your trial within that period of time, you 231 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: walk free. It's like the state having a no show 232 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 1: at a softball game. The other side walks free. That 233 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,319 Speaker 1: is incentive to come to court. That's the incentive to 234 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 1: get speedy trials. You want a speedy trial. I remember, Jason, 235 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: I'd have a docket of one hundred and fifty cases 236 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 1: waiting for me to try them. If I got a 237 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 1: speedy trial, they all got put on the back burner 238 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: and I trial the speedy. I would try the speedy first, 239 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 1: so there would not be an automatic acquittal. That's the 240 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: answer to that. I don't have to pay for movie 241 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 1: seats and mets tickets and phone cards to get somebody 242 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 1: a speedy trial. Jason, Isn't that true? Nancy? You're the 243 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 1: fetal system. I mean those cases get advance right to 244 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 1: the top, and you know that's the check in balance system. 245 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 1: You know, sometimes something gets lost and then that's the 246 00:14:55,320 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 1: focus of it. If Bell reform is meant as as Bobby, 247 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: it should be for low level as you said in 248 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 1: the opening, Misdemeanors Felonie No. Twenties. The distinction between the 249 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 1: two crime stories with Nancy Grace, welcome back. This is 250 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 1: Crime Stories with me and all star panel, Jason Ocean's 251 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 1: New York defense attorney to Bobby Chicom Welcome, former special 252 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 1: Asian FBI, current star of Facebook watched series Curse of Acacor, 253 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 1: and of course Tina Moore with US New York Post 254 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 1: reporter Tina, Let's talk about what's just happened? Isn't it true? 255 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 1: And I read this first in the New York Post 256 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 1: that a bank robber, and which is no easy feat 257 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: to rob a bank, by the way, had already gotten 258 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:04,359 Speaker 1: out on this free pass and then targeted more banks immediately. 259 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 1: What happened, Tina, Yeah, that's true, he said. I can't 260 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 1: believe they let me out. What were they thinking? I 261 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 1: don't understand. Maybe he needs some mental health treatment. Well, 262 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 1: he can certainly afford it because he's knocked over so 263 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 1: many banks. Jason notions, did you say that bank number five? 264 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 1: He had already robbed one bank, and I guarantee you 265 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: he had to use a weapon, and then he targets 266 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 1: four other banks the minute he gets out. And Tina Moore, 267 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 1: of course, is not just making that up. That's those 268 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 1: are his words, not hers quote. I can't believe they 269 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 1: let me out, No, Jason, wait a minute, wait a minute, 270 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 1: wait for it, let it breathe. I can't believe they 271 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 1: let me out. Ha ha ha ha. The criminals and 272 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 1: the defense attorneys are dancing in the halls today. Help me, Jason. 273 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 1: Why criminals are opportunists so they'll know all about the 274 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: law and Bell reform, probably as it was being printed 275 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 1: by the legislature. So this, uh, this individual you're talking about, 276 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 1: didn't you pass the note? So no weapon. So as 277 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 1: a result of doing that, they just let him right out, 278 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 1: no note, and that was how he was able to 279 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 1: continue to revolve through the store. No one, No one 280 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: likes it, Nancy, not in this manner, right from a 281 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 1: from a service, you know, from from from looking at 282 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 1: these climates other clients. Defense Attorney's like, yeah, he's laughing. Okay, 283 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:33,919 Speaker 1: I can't take credit for this, although I would like 284 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 1: to steal at Bobby Chicomb, but that would be wrong. Quote. 285 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:41,440 Speaker 1: He's laughing all the way to the bank. John Dillinger 286 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:45,680 Speaker 1: wanna be is on the loose thanks to Bell quote 287 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:49,640 Speaker 1: reform that set him free despite his arrest in connection 288 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 1: to one, two, three, four Manhattan bank robberies. He just 289 00:17:55,680 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 1: got out and he immediately robs a fifth bank. He 290 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 1: gets it on Thursday, and he robs the bank on Friday. 291 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:07,199 Speaker 1: I mean I'm getting that from of course the New 292 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 1: York Posts. Go ahead, Bobby Chicone. Bobby, you've dealt with 293 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 1: as many criminals as Jason and I have, and Tina 294 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,640 Speaker 1: and the media I'm sure you've dealt with a lot more, 295 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:18,640 Speaker 1: but we'll let that go. But Bobby Chicone, you know, 296 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 1: it's like a homing pigeon. It does. It comes right 297 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 1: back to the same spot. You're a bank robber, you'll 298 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,360 Speaker 1: rob another bank. You're a dope dealer. The minute get out, 299 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 1: you hit the street and try to find a bag 300 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 1: of dope to sell. It's like they're like lemmings. They 301 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,120 Speaker 1: do well. Look a lot of us we don't have 302 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 1: independent thought. We just do what is routine, what is normal, 303 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 1: what we normally do. I mean, I got up this morning, 304 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:44,160 Speaker 1: I made a cup of tea and put skim milk 305 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: in and heated up in the microwave without even thinking. 306 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 1: I kind of like woke up and it was in 307 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:52,399 Speaker 1: my hand. That's the way they consider crying. Bobby, explain it. 308 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 1: That's right, Nancy. And all you have to do is 309 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 1: look at the resid ray the rate at which criminals 310 00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:01,040 Speaker 1: re commit or they reoffend, and and it is so high, 311 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 1: particularly in place like New York City in New York State, 312 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 1: that to think that a system where we're going to 313 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:12,160 Speaker 1: let even career criminals out again on the street without 314 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: any kind of bail requirements is a joke to think 315 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: that that makes the system better, that that's going to 316 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:22,679 Speaker 1: allow more people to show back up for trial. There 317 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 1: was a case where one of the guy's career offenses, 318 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 1: with the fourteen times he hadn't shown back up for 319 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 1: Corey was a career criminal, and on January first, he 320 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 1: was released under this law. And you know it goes 321 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 1: on and on. We're already seeing things like in Seneca County, 322 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 1: up state New York, a guy was charged with predatory 323 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 1: sexual assault, first degree rape, and endangering the world for 324 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 1: a pecunt. Wait wait, wait, Bobby n slow down. I 325 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:54,880 Speaker 1: want that to sink in. Please, I don't have dramatic pauses. There, 326 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 1: pauses to let me think and soak in what I 327 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 1: just heard? Okay, what did you say about rape? What 328 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 1: did I just hear? So? Danna Goodman, thirty four, was 329 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,960 Speaker 1: charged with predatory sexual assault the Class A two felony. 330 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 1: He was also charged with first degree rape at Class 331 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 1: B felony and endangering the world for a child. He 332 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,640 Speaker 1: was r ard on those charges under the new law, 333 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:18,840 Speaker 1: which is he was he was what he was what 334 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 1: he was. He was released on his own recognisance, which 335 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:28,000 Speaker 1: means he's he's released on own recognisance. He walked out 336 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 1: on his good word, on his good word, an alleged 337 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 1: rapist thirteen years old is what the investigation room? Oh oh, 338 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:41,399 Speaker 1: Tina More. I feel like I just got shot in 339 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 1: the arm now, Tina, My poor children, they have no 340 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,199 Speaker 1: idea how much I talk about them constantly on the air, 341 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:51,439 Speaker 1: but they just turned twelve. Okay, So this guy allegedly 342 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: rapes a child and he gets out r O R 343 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 1: released on own recognisance. In other words, doesn't oppose to bond. 344 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:03,439 Speaker 1: Tina Moore, New York Post reporter, Tina, you know how 345 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 1: many times molesters molest before they get caught. It's like 346 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:13,639 Speaker 1: forty two, one hundred times that they molest to each arrest. 347 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: So he gets arrested on rape and sex assault on 348 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 1: a child and walks out, if Bobby Chacon is to 349 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 1: be believed, but Tina helped me. What is wrong with Deblasio? 350 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,160 Speaker 1: This is not about politics. I don't give a fig 351 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 1: what party he's in. This is just wrong. Tina, Well, 352 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: follow form came from Albanina, so that that's terrible to molestar. 353 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 1: I've written a lot about that, not that case in particular, 354 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 1: about that crime. But the bank rubber is a bit different. 355 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 1: I mean the bank rubber had a note, he used 356 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,440 Speaker 1: to note, he did not have a weapon. So there's 357 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 1: there's got to be some rational way to deal with 358 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:53,920 Speaker 1: this instead of reactionary. Because that's horrible. That person who 359 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:56,400 Speaker 1: has accused of rape got to a set free. That's 360 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: just not How can I ask you something, Tina, Yes, 361 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,159 Speaker 1: have you ever heard of cases because I have, in 362 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:05,160 Speaker 1: fact I prosecuted them where there would be a robbery 363 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 1: and in this case, the purp Dumont Shay cut that 364 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 1: that's not that's an NYPD commissioner. In this case, Woodbury's 365 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,880 Speaker 1: alleged spree begins when he slips a note demanding money 366 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 1: to a teller to chase bank like that, Gray, Why 367 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:26,880 Speaker 1: is it so easy to rob a bank with a note? 368 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,200 Speaker 1: I don't understand that. Maybe there's a time with a 369 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: bank really, I mean, yeah, this is what I was 370 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: working up to. If they think he has a gun, 371 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: what do you think the security officer is going to do? 372 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,160 Speaker 1: Pull out a gun and then what's going to happen? 373 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 1: Shooting is going to happen. And I've had cases where 374 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,879 Speaker 1: the actual robber was not the one that fired the 375 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: bullet that kills somebody, there would be a shoot off. 376 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 1: There would be basically a Wild West situation. I've had 377 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 1: bank robberies. The first one was a dyslex at bank 378 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: robber and his note said, don't touch the al ram, 379 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,200 Speaker 1: this is a robie. Well guess how he got convicted, 380 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 1: Tina more because I had a handwriting comparison done, and 381 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 1: all the handwritings he spelled everything backwards to no offense. 382 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,399 Speaker 1: But you know got him. What I'm saying is a 383 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,680 Speaker 1: bank robbery, gun or no gun is a violent crime. Really, 384 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 1: if you keep going back and doing this over and 385 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 1: over again, the bigger issue here is mental health. Clearly 386 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 1: you've got a mental health problem, someone that needs to 387 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:27,200 Speaker 1: put more money into giving the people treatment. That's the problem. 388 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 1: Obviously he goes I come out with banks five times. 389 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 1: There's a bigger problem than just being a bank robber. Well, 390 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:34,639 Speaker 1: it'll be a really big problem when somebody ends up 391 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,639 Speaker 1: getting shot or killed or run over because of this 392 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 1: bank robber. But my issue is not the bank robber 393 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 1: not having a gun. My issue is violent crime and 394 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 1: people getting out from behind bars. And then Doublasio, the 395 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:54,919 Speaker 1: affrontery of giving them a swag bag. The other issue 396 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 1: to Bobby Chicoon, former special agent FBI, star of Facebook 397 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 1: watch Curse of Acacore. Bobby, they say they want to 398 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:08,399 Speaker 1: combat jail overcrowding. What's so difficult to understand? And you 399 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,879 Speaker 1: can tell me if you think I'm wrong. Our population 400 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: has skyrocketed over the last say, sixty years. Of course, 401 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:19,159 Speaker 1: the jail population has increased. Of course it is. We 402 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:23,399 Speaker 1: shouldn't expect that our jails won't be crowded. That's why 403 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 1: we need to build alternate facilities. It's just that simple. 404 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 1: The housing market, you know, there's tons of new subdivisions 405 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:36,359 Speaker 1: and apartment high rises. Why aren't there more jails? Explain, Well, 406 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 1: you know that's the old problem where nobody everybody wants 407 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:41,680 Speaker 1: more jails, and nobody wants them in their own backyard. 408 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 1: Do you start running out of places to put jails 409 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 1: and stuff? But but you're right, I mean, as the 410 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 1: population increases, we're going to have more, you know, people 411 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 1: that need to require incarceration. However, I'm not against the 412 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,480 Speaker 1: concept of reformed bail because they do parade out some 413 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 1: you know, horrific cases of somebody being jail. It shouldn't 414 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:02,120 Speaker 1: be but this is not reform. This is a complete restructuring. 415 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 1: This is good, goes way too far. They start talking about, well, 416 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,399 Speaker 1: we're only doing if a non violent offenders, which is 417 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,679 Speaker 1: not true, and so you know they you know, there 418 00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 1: was this. This was really a one sided debate on 419 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: this so called reform and and it's out of control 420 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 1: that the amount of crimes that are covered. You know, 421 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 1: there are pre trial diversion things that can be looked at. 422 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 1: It's just in this particular case, the state went way 423 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 1: too far in what it's doing to let career criminals 424 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 1: back on the street who are going to reoffend. There 425 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,200 Speaker 1: is no question about that. You are going to create 426 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:42,560 Speaker 1: more victims. There have probably been more victims already because 427 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:45,200 Speaker 1: this law is in place. Take a listen to our 428 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 1: friends at CBS. Two hundreds of offenses such as stalking, 429 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 1: grand larceny, assault as a hate crime, and second degree 430 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,479 Speaker 1: manslaughter will no longer be eligible for bail or pre 431 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: trialed attention. They eliminated bail, but they never put in 432 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 1: the safeguard we need of allowing the judge to assess dangerousness. 433 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:06,440 Speaker 1: And the result is we've got some glaring loopholes that 434 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 1: are going to go into effect tomorrow. CBS two Urban 435 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 1: affairs expert Mark Peters says this sets New York apart 436 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: from other states, such as New Jersey, which have already 437 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:18,119 Speaker 1: eliminated the cash bail. So that somebody can walk up 438 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,960 Speaker 1: to someone on the street and punch them in the face, 439 00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 1: and if they haven't done lasting physical injury, there's no 440 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 1: bail available. They can They'll be let out that day. 441 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: They can go and punch somebody the next day. Courts 442 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 1: will have the option to supervise release defendants by check 443 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 1: ins with a caseworker, by monitoring their mental health or 444 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:41,399 Speaker 1: substance abuse treatment, by making sure they maintain employment, obey 445 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:45,360 Speaker 1: an order of protection, or forfeit their firearms. Said someone 446 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:48,720 Speaker 1: I gotta use Jason Oceans, New York, New Jersey defense attorney, 447 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 1: how is it that defacts Department? Family Children's Services also 448 00:26:54,400 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 1: known as CPS Chop Protective Services doesn't have enough employees 449 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 1: to check over or guard children placed back in what 450 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 1: I know to be horrible homes and the children end 451 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 1: up dead. We have a new case like that every 452 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 1: single day. I've got so many that I hate to 453 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:17,000 Speaker 1: broadcast them all or I would be doing every single 454 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:21,679 Speaker 1: program on that not enough employees, not enough motivated employees. 455 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:25,399 Speaker 1: But we think and children die, we think we have 456 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:31,359 Speaker 1: enough employees to monitor whether a perp, a criminal perp 457 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:34,920 Speaker 1: is taken as meds or going to rehab or going 458 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:38,439 Speaker 1: to AA or really that that's not going to happen. 459 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:41,639 Speaker 1: Why don't we just deal with the truth. It's not 460 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:44,440 Speaker 1: happening at all. This was as as Bobby said and 461 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 1: Tina reported, this was just an abomination. There's there's there's 462 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 1: no aspect of this that's good for for anyone except 463 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 1: you know, recipivious criminals. Uh, you know the rate in 464 00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 1: the state of anti Semitism and and those that we're 465 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,920 Speaker 1: committing it would just let right out again to assault 466 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 1: to others. You talked about met tickets and that's a 467 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 1: Dublasio thing versus the state that enacted this bail reform nonsense. 468 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 1: But imagine going to a MET game and one of 469 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:19,360 Speaker 1: the crimes now is injecting a child with a controlled substance, 470 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 1: injecting a minor with a controlled substance, and you're out. 471 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:26,359 Speaker 1: So imagine you're that disturbed individual that's what you're sitting 472 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:28,600 Speaker 1: next to, potentially at a MET game. I want you 473 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:32,479 Speaker 1: to take a listen to a New York assemblyman joining 474 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 1: our friends at Fox and Friends. Even someone with an 475 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:39,480 Speaker 1: extensive criminal history. An individual with twenty four prior arrests 476 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 1: punched a police officer in Brooklyn was released right back 477 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 1: onto the street. And we saw an illegal immigrant in 478 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:49,880 Speaker 1: Rockland County on Christmas Eve hit drive unlicensed, hit and 479 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 1: killed a thirty five year old mother of three, was 480 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 1: released back onto the street after he left the scene 481 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 1: of the accident, was caught. It's unbelievable what local law 482 00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 1: enforcement has to put up with. The thanks he was 483 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 1: apprehended by Immigration enforcement and we'll be deported. But you know, 484 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 1: local law enforcement has their hands tied. And it's comical 485 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 1: to see people like build a Blasio, who was offering 486 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 1: free Mets tickets gift cards to incentivize people to return 487 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 1: to court. He lent his support for this law crime 488 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 1: stories with Nancy Grace. I'll tell you what it's going 489 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 1: to take, and I don't like this, but what is 490 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 1: going to take, Bobby Chicon is a murder. That's finally, 491 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 1: when an innocent person loses their life at the hands 492 00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:49,240 Speaker 1: of someone who walks straight out of jail, without putting 493 00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:51,200 Speaker 1: up bond and got to just a revolving door like 494 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 1: you just heard about. I guess those lives aren't enough. 495 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 1: But it's going to take something like that before h 496 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 1: change is made, and that's going to require the Assembly 497 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 1: to get together and come up with an idea and 498 00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 1: actually do something about it. Bobby and and I hate that, 499 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,040 Speaker 1: but I know that is the reality. Well, I think 500 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:13,720 Speaker 1: we've already we may have already had that. There was 501 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 1: a ninety two year old woman in New York that 502 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 1: was that was killed by an individual had just gotten 503 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 1: out of jail for UM an incident of violence, incident 504 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 1: with his father UM and I believe he was released 505 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 1: under under this law and then he assaulted UM and 506 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 1: she wound up dying of her injuries, a ninety two 507 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 1: year old woman UM And So yeah, I think that. 508 00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 1: I think you're right, I think, but that's my point. 509 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 1: I think there already is additional victims, and I think 510 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 1: there will continue to be victims. And it may be 511 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 1: victims rights advocates that have to rally around and push 512 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 1: back on this, but there's no doubt in my mind 513 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 1: that there will be additional victims created by this law 514 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 1: that would not be victimized if this law wasn't in place. 515 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 1: And that's the real that's the real um sadness of 516 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 1: this whole situation is in an attempt to curry favor 517 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:07,240 Speaker 1: with a certain segment of the population, politicians are sacrificing 518 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:11,920 Speaker 1: additional victims, accounting on those victims not speaking up. In 519 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 1: that case where there was a ninety two year old 520 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 1: female victim, it wasn't just an accident. She was also 521 00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 1: sex assaulted and murdered. Okay, So let's just let that 522 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 1: scene in for a moment. So, Bobby Chicone, the case 523 00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:32,400 Speaker 1: you're describing the guy who just got out, pursue it 524 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 1: to the bill, quote reform sex assaulted a ninety two 525 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:46,720 Speaker 1: year old woman. Now what's happening? Why isn't it being fixed? 526 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 1: Because we know Cuomo, the governor of New York, just 527 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 1: gave you a speech and did not address it. And 528 00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 1: they keep putting perfume on the pigs, things like, oh, 529 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 1: it needs to be tweaked. I think it needs a 530 00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 1: tear down, okay, and a rebuild, an entire rebuild. So 531 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 1: when you described so quickly the ninety two year old woman, 532 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 1: you left out the fact that this wasn't just you know, oops, 533 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,280 Speaker 1: I accidentally hit her in my elbow and she fell 534 00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 1: on the ground in her head. No, he sex assaulted 535 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:29,560 Speaker 1: her and then murdered her after just walking out. I'm 536 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 1: wonder if he's going to get Mets tickets. Yeah, day, 537 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,440 Speaker 1: And I think the original crimes in jail for it 538 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 1: was an assault with his father, So these are not 539 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:39,600 Speaker 1: non violent offenders. They try to paint it that way. 540 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:43,320 Speaker 1: This is nothing more than pure politics. The laws shouldn't 541 00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 1: be tweaked. Bail reform originally should have been tweaked, and 542 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 1: I agree with Tina that I agree with it. There 543 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 1: are some aberrations of bail in the system, and we 544 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 1: need to look at those and find ways to correct them. 545 00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 1: But this is a wholesale restructuring of the system, and 546 00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 1: it's nothing more than political pandering to certain segments of 547 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:04,760 Speaker 1: the population that those politicians feel this sells well to 548 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 1: their voters. This sells well when I stand up there 549 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 1: and I say I cite one or two aberrations of 550 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 1: stories that aren't aren't the norm, and try to make 551 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:15,960 Speaker 1: people believe those are the norm, and then say that's 552 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 1: why I had to do this, and I'm helping people. 553 00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 1: That's a political play to appeal to certain segments of 554 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 1: their voter base, and that's all this is. They don't 555 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:27,680 Speaker 1: care about the victims because one ninety two year old 556 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 1: woman who now is dead is not going to turn 557 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 1: the election for them. But if they if they pandered 558 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 1: to their political base, then they're going to win the election. 559 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 1: Take a listen to our friends at ABC seven, This 560 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:41,080 Speaker 1: is Kristin Thorne. NASA County Executive Laura Curran says, the 561 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:44,480 Speaker 1: counties public safety officials have been working hard to make 562 00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:47,240 Speaker 1: sure the release of those twenty nine people today was 563 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 1: orderly and safe. I have heard loud and clear the 564 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 1: concerns from the community. I share those concerns, which is 565 00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 1: why we made sure that we crossed every t dotted 566 00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 1: every eye to make sure this was done as smoothly 567 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 1: as possible. The reason I'm here today is because I 568 00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 1: know the people that are letting back out onto the streets. 569 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,880 Speaker 1: I work for these jails for over twenty years. The 570 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,040 Speaker 1: hard working men and women that work behind the walls 571 00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,759 Speaker 1: of these correctional facilities know just how dangerous the people 572 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:16,960 Speaker 1: are that are being left back into the communities, our communities. 573 00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:23,319 Speaker 1: Senate Republicans are vowing to introduce legislation to counteract this law. 574 00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:27,880 Speaker 1: This is what I know. When another person ends up 575 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:30,840 Speaker 1: dead in addition to the ninety two year old woman, 576 00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:37,160 Speaker 1: the blood of those victims is going to be on 577 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:45,279 Speaker 1: the government that allowed this bail quote reform act. I 578 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 1: disagree with, for instance, misdemeanors such as you know, a 579 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:57,920 Speaker 1: simple addict that has cocaine, Jason Oceans. I would do 580 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:01,440 Speaker 1: anything for them not to be behind bars if they 581 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:05,800 Speaker 1: didn't have a record, give them probation and counseling and 582 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 1: you know, forty hours of community service. If it's a 583 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 1: young guy, a young guy or a young woman who 584 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:16,319 Speaker 1: does something that's not violent, like you know, jack a car, 585 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 1: go joy riding or jack a car and sell it. 586 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:22,680 Speaker 1: That's not a violent crime. And I don't believe that 587 00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:27,760 Speaker 1: first offender should be behind bars. Shoplifting, theft of various 588 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:35,800 Speaker 1: types pretty much white collar crimes, but non violent endangering crimes. No, 589 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,319 Speaker 1: I really do not believe we need to have them 590 00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:41,839 Speaker 1: behind bars. They need help, They need help to break 591 00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:44,799 Speaker 1: out of the cycle that they're in. Because a lot 592 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 1: of these people, and I know this for a fact, 593 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 1: they don't know there is another way to live other 594 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 1: than crime. And if they could see that, maybe they 595 00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 1: could go straight. I'm talking about people that are a threat. Jason, 596 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:04,440 Speaker 1: just tell me one more time. Which crimes do people 597 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:08,560 Speaker 1: walk scott free on no bail, nothing, They sign up 598 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:12,360 Speaker 1: basically a ticket and walk out the jailhouse stores? What crimes? 599 00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:16,320 Speaker 1: Stalking as a hate crime. The list is. We'd be 600 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:19,279 Speaker 1: here for the next forty minutes. Now, stalking as a 601 00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:23,280 Speaker 1: hate crime, stalking as a hate crime, there's one stalking 602 00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:26,400 Speaker 1: as a hate crime. We're talking about just the concept 603 00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:29,600 Speaker 1: and the rise of it. You're stalking people based on 604 00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 1: race or religion. That's that's fine, go back out, Just 605 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:36,520 Speaker 1: keep doing that relentless. You could terrorize a community. This 606 00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:40,560 Speaker 1: was not intended A bail reform was not intended to 607 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 1: be this. It's, as you've discussed in a much more 608 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 1: narrowed way, not this. This was willy nilly. This was bad. 609 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:50,399 Speaker 1: It is bad. There's gonna be blood on someone's hands soon. 610 00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:54,080 Speaker 1: Final where Bobby ch Ken. Yeah, as we've just pointed 611 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 1: out stalking as a hate crime, right on its face, 612 00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:58,880 Speaker 1: it doesn't it isn't violent by definition, but it's what 613 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,600 Speaker 1: we call a precursor or crime. You're stalking someone so 614 00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:04,480 Speaker 1: that you can offend I am more violent nature. You're 615 00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:07,240 Speaker 1: stalking them to know this situation, to know their routine, 616 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 1: so things like that. So it's absolutely horrendous the amount 617 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 1: of crimes that are covered. Stalking as a hate crime 618 00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 1: is a precursor crime to another violent crime. You're preparing 619 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:20,560 Speaker 1: to commit a violent crime. And so this is an aberration. 620 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:25,080 Speaker 1: This is an absolute horror show. Uh. Like you said, Nancy, 621 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 1: there's going to be more victims. Like I've said, I 622 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:29,280 Speaker 1: know there are already more victims. There will be future 623 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:32,080 Speaker 1: victims that are victimized as a result of this law, 624 00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:34,399 Speaker 1: not as a result of anything else other than this law. 625 00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:37,600 Speaker 1: It's just the politicians don't care about those victims. They're 626 00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:40,759 Speaker 1: not a voting block, and they're going to continue to 627 00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,960 Speaker 1: pander to people that they can get up and full 628 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 1: and to say these are non violent people we're letting out. Um, 629 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:49,200 Speaker 1: none of us would disagree with that, as you are 630 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:52,239 Speaker 1: said earlier. Um, but that that's not the case. They're 631 00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:55,360 Speaker 1: they're hiding it, they're lying about it. And and the 632 00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 1: fact that so quickly now they're already admitting it needs 633 00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:00,800 Speaker 1: to be tweaked just days into the new law, says 634 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:04,359 Speaker 1: that there's it's it's very flawed. You know, at its core, 635 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:07,319 Speaker 1: this this so called reform is flawed at its core. 636 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:09,759 Speaker 1: It needs to be rescinded. And they need to have 637 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:13,040 Speaker 1: a big, another strong look at things that can be 638 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 1: used to tweet this as to Tina more New York 639 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:18,440 Speaker 1: Post Weight and Tina, I hate to admit it, but 640 00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:21,279 Speaker 1: they sort of talked to the people who understand, that's 641 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:24,799 Speaker 1: like the cops and the prosecutors, and they didn't they 642 00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:26,879 Speaker 1: didn't consult them when they when they made the law. 643 00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:29,920 Speaker 1: And I think it needs some changes need to be made. 644 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:34,280 Speaker 1: I think I've seen we wait as just as some faults. 645 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:38,239 Speaker 1: Nancy Grace Graham story signing off goodbye friend,
