Murderous Firebug Was Illegal Already Deported In 2018 But Living Known In SCNY

We now know more about the insane killer

Fiend accused of burning woman to death on NYC subway is illegal migrant from Guatemala who sneaked into US after he was deported

The illegal Guatemalan migrant accused of setting a straphanger on fire and gawking as she burned to death was once deported — but sneaked back into the US and the Big Apple shelter system, sources told The Post.

The accused firebug, who has not yet been charged, first entered the US illegally at the Arizona border in 2018, but was nabbed just days later and shipped back home.

He later crossed the border again, dodging federal agents and finding his way north to the five boroughs — although it is unclear how long he was in the city before the horrific F train attack Sunday, the sources said.

What is clear is that by April 2023 he was staying at a Days Inn hotel on 36th Street which had been converted into a migrant shelter — the first of four tax-funded facilities in the city.

When he was issued a transit ticket in 2023, he gave an address of a shelter on Randall’s Island, the sources said.

So, he was known. He was living in SCNY aboveground. The city was giving him shelter and taxpayer funded support. And then he set a woman on fire and watched.

The NY Times has an interesting take in an update

The nightmarish attack seemed almost like a collage of social problems the city is facing: homelessness, random transit crime, illegal immigration, substance abuse.

Aren’t these all things the Times either endorses, ignores, and/or says are no problem?

Why did no one help her? Fatal subway burning exposes New York City’s sad disconnect to humanity

No one helped.

The bystanders were too busy filming. The cops? Well, instead of wrapping their jackets around a burning woman in an F train stopped at the Coney Island-Stillwell Avenue Station on Sunday morning, they walked by.

Surely, someone would have thrown their coat over her, ran to look for water, screamed at her to stop, drop and roll. Found a fire extinguisher. Yelled for help. Something. Most of us like to think we would have acted to save her life.

This is NYC to the extreme, where no one offers help. They’ll take videos and upload them. And, these days, no one wants to get involved even more after Alvin Bragg prosecuted Daniel Penny.
