BROOKLYN (VINnews) — The disgraceful New York City justice system has allowed another suspect to go free, an alleged anti-semite who is accused of a vicious hate crime.

Suleiman Othman was arrested Monday for attacking two men in Brooklyn in December, after he saw one of them wearing an IDF shirt. On Tuesday Othman was released by a leftist judge on just $1,000 bail.
Dov Hikind and Brooklyn Councilwoman Inna Vernikov posted a video on Twitter outside the courthouse, blasting the egregious decision.
Mr. Hikind said, “The criminal justice system is a farce, a joke, and this endangers every single New Yorker.”
He added, “This person committed a hate crime, attacked two innocent people and beat one up. It’s unconscionable.”
The former assemblyman thanked the prosecutor but blasted the judge. “We appreciate the DA asking for $35,000 bail, but the judge–what a joke, the lawyer for this defendant said this is ‘no big deal.’ Beating up a freaking jew is not a big deal.
“We will follow this case and we trust that DA Gonzalez will pursue this until the very end and Mr. Suleiman ends up in jail.”
Councilwoman Vernikov said, ”This revolving door of justice has to stop, we are going to keep fighting.”
In late December, the two young Jewish men were brutally attacked in Brooklyn because they where Jewish.
Blake Zavadsky and Ilan Kaganovich, both 21, were at a Foot Locker in Bay Ridge when they were allegedly accosted by two attackers after they noticed Blake wearing an IDF sweatshirt.
“They asked us what we were doing in their neighborhood,” Zavadsky said. “They called us ‘dirty Jews.’”
The cost of beating a Jew in New York City? $1,000 bail, according to the judge that allowed this suspect to walk free tonight.
I am disgusted at the outcome of this arraignment, and that the young victims had to witness their pain be dismissed.

While Dov Hikind is justifiably angry, it’s the party that he was part of and represented for many years that led up to this joke of a low bail amount. It’s also his party that has always been consistent in voting down the right of law abiding adults in the state of New York to carry a firearm for protection. Not to mention, that it’s extremely difficult to get one just to keep at home, never mind carrying one around. Hikind and Ms Vernikov and any other Democrat that represents our community oughta publicly raise hell with their own party members that vote for liberal laws and endanger the public. Until then, it’s put up or shut up!!
As predicted of course silence from aguda
Well we know where he lives if courts system won’t do anything we have to take care of this Arab and teach him a lesson
You voted DemocRATs you get what you vote for. Listen to your self serving askunim and your city will be a crime capital.
Actually it is $10,000 Bond, $5,000 Cash

I wonder if someone would have stepped up today and slapped the Judge across his face – would he also be let off on $1000?
Eerily resembles the cruel town of Sedom
That’s why I said yesterday that the boys should have have beaten the the filthy Arab there is no justice so if you can’t beat em join em
Who is the judge?
I’m surprised he set any bail.
Yet a powerful rich white dude who doesn’t report something in taxes or mistakenly evaluates property or steers some money to a dr as a politican maybe gets out on $5m bail.
Perverted justice. We live in a communist banana republic
I’m surprised that Hinkind came into NYC from his new home in the 5 Towns.
I saw Dov Hikinds pre-court obnoxious, immature circus side show. Could that have played a role in negatively affecting the outcome?
No, they weren’t attacked because they were Jewish. They were attacked because they were Zionists, supportive of the anti-religious, and most anti Torah organization called the IDF.
The IDF is the cause for anti-semitism in the world, of which there is plenty, scarily.
