SH**HOLE NEWS: Lenient NYC Judge Releases Unhinged Homeless Man Who Randomly Struck Woman in Head: Cops; ‘This is why we boycott NY’; Outrage Erupts Online as Manhattan Judge Valentina Morales Frees Alleged Attacker Who Hit Woman in Head

Lenient NYC judge releases unhinged homeless man who randomly struck woman in head: cops

A notoriously lenient city judge who recently sprung a Venezuelan migrant without bail after he stabbed a man in Times Square has struck again — releasing a vagrant who randomly bashed a woman in Union Square as she walked to work, cops said.

Jill Burke, 24, only learned her alleged attacker Eric Taylor was cut loose when she showed up to testify against him to a grand jury, The Post has learned.

Manhattan Criminal Court Judge Valentina Morales released Taylor — who has two prior felony convictions and 22 misdemeanor convictions, records show — despite a prosecutor’s request for $20,000 cash bail or $60,000 bond, records show.

Burke said she was walking around 10 a.m. to work at a startup financial firm on Jan. 31 when she was suddenly struck in the face with a heavy object and knocked to the ground.

“He was carrying a plastic bag full of things in one hand and kind of pointed at me with the other hand like he was aiming,” Burke, who lives in the East Village, told The Post.

“He took the plastic bag and hurled it at my face from about two feet away. I fell to the ground and then he just walked away.”

Police responded and took the bag as evidence — Burke said it felt like it had glass bottles in it but she never had a chance to look inside — before they tracked Taylor to a nearby electronics store and got a clear photo of him, she said.

Taylor, 50, told cops he threw the bag at Burke because “he thought she was a spy and was plotting against him,” court records show.

Burke suffered a black eye and a cut above her eyebrow. Her attacker was arrested and charged with felony assault, a bail-eligible offense.

“This is a stranger assault in which the defendant threw a shopping bag filled with various hard objects at a complete stranger’s head for no reason,” according to prosecutors.

If convicted on the top count, Taylor faces a minimum of three years in state prison. —>READ MORE HERE
