fuck that kid.
He also assaulted the female driver (while wearing his helmet ) and pointed a gun.
Slap all of them with high dollar bonds I say.
I am fine with high bonds. I think asking for 5 million and getting 2.5 million is absolutely insane for what the crime actually was. What I really have a problem with is that krasner asks for a 5 million dollar bond for this crime and the guy is white, but he refuses to prosecute felons with illegal firearms because the suspects are almost always poc. He also grants personal recognizance bonds for violent poc suspects with long criminal records. Pr bonds are no money down and a pinky swear to behave and show up to court, even if they have a history of violating bond and not showing for court.
I have to add that DA’s don’t set the bond. That is up to judges and bail commissions, however, the DAs office can request a higher or lower bond. krasner (never capitalized because I have no respect for him) has argued and campaigned to eliminate cash bond and has had a big impact on the amount for bonds. The da sets the tone and influences the culture surrounding criminal justice and that bleeds over into the judges and bond committees. When you see some of the bonds listed below, keep in mind that krasner requested 5 million dollar bond for a man that broke car windows, head butted a woman while wearing a helmet, and after his gun fell out of his pants, he picked it up and pointed it her. Violent, yes, but many of the crimes listed below are for armed robberies using firearms and one violent rape of a 13 year old and his bond was set at 8 times lower and he was also already out on bond for a violent, near fatal crime.
Progressive DAs are ruining the criminal justice system and making things more dangerous. Here are a few stories. This first one isn’t Philly, but kim foxx is progressive like krasner and her office gave two men plea deals for probation for unlawful use of a firearm-meaning they were shooting that firearm or using it in other crimes. Probation? In a gun free zone?

Philly third degree murder suspect out on bond arrested for looting. He walked up and punched a guy in the face, knocking him out and hitting his head on pavement and dying-he gets bond?

Infamous Philly case where josephus davis was arrested for armed robbery. Took plea deal and was given 18 months of supervised release. For fucking armed robbery! Then, he was charged with a kidnapping and carjacking. His bond was set at 100k. When you compared this to the biker incident who got 2.5 million, seems a bit unfair. But it gets worse-they reduced his bond to just 12,000! He bonds out for putting down 1,200 and while out on bond, he robs a temple student and murders him.
Case where two men were charged in series of armed robberies using guns. I think it was nine charges, but I could be wrong and I am not going back to check. Bond set at 75 k for one and 100k for the other. Both were able to post bond-how? Probably drug money because they got busted for dealing as well. While out on bond, they committed more violent crimes.

Here’s another really bad one. Man absolutely brutally beats random white guy in Philly with group of others. They really fucked him up. Knocked him out and he began having a seizure and they kept beating on him. He has permanent brain damage and was in a coma for a month, he also had to have an emergency tracheotomy, and has permanent damage to his jaw-presumably from it being broken, but they didn’t say. His bond was set at 75k, which the little fucker was able to post. Then, while out on bond for that, he brutally and violently raped a 13 year old girl in from of her toddler aged sibling. Warrants were issued and he turned himself in. His bond for that crime was set at 300k!!?
