The lawyer representing the aspiring Thai model who was viciously attacked on a subway platform ripped New York City’s liberal bail reform laws, insisting there is “something fundamentally wrong.”
Bew Jirajariyawetch, 23, was savagely assaulted as she waited at the 34th Street-Herald Square station for a train home to Queens on Nov. 22.
Kevin Douglas is a career criminal who has been arrested 44 times
Her alleged attacker, Kevin Douglas, is an accused career criminal who has been arrested 44 times and faced charges for drugs, assault, criminal possession of a weapon, robbery and criminal tampering dating back to 1997, sources previously told The Post.
On one day alone — May 13, 2019, he was arrested 16 times, according to sources. The reason for the flurry of arrests was not immediately known.
“There is something fundamentally wrong when someone who has over a double-digit amount of priors is first able to be out of jail. That is a problem in itself,” attorney Eric Parnes said on “Fox & Friends” Tuesday.
Parnes also demanded soft-on-crime Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg to answer for why such suspects are being released to commit more crime.

Surveillance footage of Jirajariyawetch’s attack showed a man yanking her back several feet before throwing her to the ground and punching her. While she was down, he allegedly touched her private parts and fled with her purse, police said.
Photos showed Jirajariyawetch’s face covered in purple bruises with dried blood caked under her nose and near the mouth.
“He hit me multiple times in my face to make sure I couldn’t make any noise. And then touched me inappropriately. And then he took my purse before he was gone,” Jirajariywetch told “Fox & Friends.”

Bew Jirajariyawetch recently moved to NYC before she was attacked.
Douglas, 40, whose address was given as a Days Inn hotel near JFK International Airport, has been charged with second-degree robbery, third-degree robbery and second-degree assault.
Douglas has been in jail since the subway attack, locked up for another crime later the same day as the assault – an incident in Jamaica when he is alleged to have pushed open the door of a 34-year-old woman’s home and punched her in the face, according to records and sources.
“And second, that he was arrested the same day and has been incarcerated for three months. It’s taken three months for an arrest warrant to be issued. That is also extremely troubling,” Parnes said.

This guy's expiration date should be just about up.
At some point we must hold prosecutors who refuse to prosecute accountable. Gotta wonder just how far people are willing to let this go.
Theoretically we do hold them accountable. It is called an election. When you get to the point where there are more dingdongs, snowflakes, hard-core lefties and criminals in the city than there are normal people the normal people are outnumbered.
Ya well Bob...The "normal people" have become dumbed down lemmings.
