One of eight migrants believed to be responsible for a brutal beatdown of two NYPD cops infuriated both Republicans and Democrats after flipping off the country with two hands and a “one finger salute” after a brief court appearance.
Migrant Jhoan Boada gave not one, but two middle fingers to cameras awaiting him outside of Manhattan Criminal Court after his release on bail, along with four other accused criminal cohorts.
Police are still on the hunt for three of the other accused migrants who police and prosecutors said attacked the two cops.
The condemnation of the migrant middle finger madness was swift.
“(He) strolls across the border, was given free shelter, beat up cops, suffered no consequence, and this is how he thanks us,” said Fox News Host Jesse Waters.
“Get them all and send them back. You don’t touch our police officers” said Governor Kathy Hochul when pressed by reporters to comment outside of a N.Y.C. subway.
The gang of eight migrant asylum seekers were captured on surveillance camera ganging up on two New York City Police officers on the night of Saturday, January 27th, on West 42nd Street. The two officers were trying to break up a large group of people, which police said included the gang of eight migrants.
That’s when authorities said the group of eight migrants overwhelmed, kicked, punched, pummeled, and beat the defenseless officers.
“Reprehensible. Cowards. You have eight people attacking a lieutenant and a cop, running up to them to kick them in the face,” said New York Police Chief of Patrol John Chell.
Instead of sitting inside Rikers Island awaiting further court proceedings for being charged with second degree assault on a police officer and obstructing governmental administration, all five facing charges were immediately released on bail.
“Those who are breaking our laws, we need to reexamine the laws that don’t allow us to deport them,” said New York City Mayor Eric Adams.
Appearing on Jesse Waters Primetime, former Westchester County Judge and Fox News host Jeanine Pirro said left leaning politicians now crying foul about migrants beating cops only have themselves to blame, since many supported ‘No Bail” legislation in New York as well as the Big Apple and New York State being a Sanctuary City and Sanctuary State.
“The Mayor, the DA, the President, and the Governor are all flipping us the middle finger. Governor Hochul says now it’s a good idea (to deport the migrants). After a reporter asked her. What I want to hear (from her): ‘I want the legislature to vote on deportation.’ The Mayor is a former cop. He has to call the DA and say ‘why are you not asking for bail,’” said Pirro on Fox News.
If convicted and given the maximum possible sentence, the five migrants face seven years in prison. The two officers, who also suffered direct kicks to the head, are expected to fully recover. The New York Post reported four of the migrants already skipped bail and took a bus to California.
