Mocobizscene- NYPD leaders express their concerns following the release of a repeat offender who has been arrested six times this year. Despite his most recent arrest, the offender was released without bail.
According to NYPD Chief of Patrol John Chell, Rudell Faulkner has a history of preying on New Yorkers in the streets and transit system, with a staggering 47 prior incidents and 28 convictions.
Chell revealed that the culprit was apprehended once more just last week. This time, he was caught jumping the turnstile while in possession of felony narcotics. In a shocking turn of events, he was also charged with grand larceny against a 56-year-old woman who was simply going about her daily routine. This arrest marks the sixth time he has been taken into custody this year, with four of those instances being classified as felonies.
After his most recent arrest, Faulkner was released without bail by a judge, which caused anger among certain leaders within the NYPD.
Chell expressed his concern about the bail reform, acknowledging the efforts of both the police and the district attorney. However, he criticized the judge’s decision to let the perpetrator walk free, emphasizing the potential consequences of this action. According to Chell, this could lead to an increase in the number of victims in New York City.
Faulkner is just one example of how repeat offenders slip through a revolving door and contribute to subway crime, according to Chell.
According to Chell, it is important for everyone to fulfill their responsibilities in order for the process to function effectively. By doing so, the overall safety of the city can be greatly improved.
According to Chell, the district attorney requested a bail amount of $10,000 in cash or $30,000 in bond. However, the judge in the case decided to release Faulkner without any bail.
“Enough is enough,” exclaimed Chell, a weary New Yorker. “If everyone simply does their job, we can achieve a more favorable outcome.”
In February, the NYPD increased the number of officers in the system by a thousand. According to Chell, their efforts have been effective in reducing crime, with a 17% decrease this month.
