Two criminals who previously escaped incarceration through a diversion program faced murder charges for shooting a man in The Bronx. Despite previous arrests for illegal gun possession, they were directed to a gun accountability program rather than jail. This incident exemplifies the risks associated with progressive criminal justice reforms intended to divert offenders from incarceration, leading to tragic outcomes. Highlighting other local cases, the article emphasizes concerns regarding lenient law enforcement and the impact of bail laws on repeat offenders and community safety.
Two thugs who dodged jail thanks to a "diversion program" have been charged with murder for gunning a man down in The Bronx on Jan. 6.
The two alleged shooters, Amari Oneal and Ali Mohammed, had been busted with a pair of illegal guns in August of 2023.
A flack for the Bronx district attorney's office pleaded: "When we enacted these programs we understood there would be risk, but we are combating gun violence from all angles."
And countless repeat offenders are turned loose thanks to New York's insane bail laws and lenient lefty judges.
