"Migrant Suspects in Attacks on NYPD Officers: Indictments and Calls for Deportation"
Gov. Kathy Hochul criticized the release of a group of migrants who attacked NYPD officers near Times Square, emphasizing that they should have been held accountable under state bail laws. She expressed frustration over the situation and called for the perpetrators to go through the justice system before being deported. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg stated that charges will be presented to a grand jury, and Hochul urged judges to use their discretion to ensure repeat offenders are held accountable. The group responsible for the attack is due back in court in March, facing second-degree assault charges.
