Most of the illegal aliens who beat up two cops in New York City are part of a major theft ring and conspiracy of “migrant” criminals who arrived in New York City.
Imported by the Biden administration and freed to wreak havoc, the thugs steal from people on the street, then send the money back home, the New York Post reported.
Or they spend the money in Florida, a former city cop told CNN last week.
Though an angry city cop said the attack on the cops was eight-on-one, more than a dozen illegals are sought in connection with the crime.
No Biden officials will be held responsible either for the beating or the two cops’ injuries.
iPhone Thefts
The latest illegal-alien outrage began when the illegals attacked a police lieutenant and patrolman who responded to a robbery call at a shoe store. Illegals, the New York Post reported, robbed the store of handbags.
Video shows the illegals swarming the cops. That didn’t bother Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, one of the pro-criminal prosecutors whose election campaign was financed by Hungarian communist billionaire George Soros. Bragg freed four of them without bail.
But now, the Post has reported, six of the eight are “being eyed in a larger conspiracy in which the immigrants use Apple Pay on stolen phones to buy cars and pools.”
And they aren’t alone, the Post continued:
The violent group is part of a larger conspiracy involving other new arrivals in the city.
The migrants first steal phones from victims and then use Apple Pay and credit cards to make large purchases back in their home countries, the sources said.
“They’re buying cars back in Ecuador and Venezuela,” the police source said. “They’re putting pools in their homes there. All this money is going back and forth. That’s why the larcenies are going out of control. It’s unbelievable what they’re doing.”
Cops suspect the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua (“Aragua Train,” after the state of Aragua in Venezuela), the Post reported, citing John Miller, former chief of intelligence for NYPD.
“I went over their rap sheets yesterday,” he told CNN This Morning’s Phil Mattingly and Erica Hill on Friday. “Multiple charges. Grand larceny, robbery, attempted robbery, grand larceny, grand larceny.”
The crew uses mopeds and scooters, Miller said, and “were doing organized retail theft. They were doing snatches on the street. iPhones, iPads, clothing, so on and so forth.”
One of the thugs faces 10 criminal charges, he said. They began committing crimes almost as soon as they arrived in the country. But Biden, again, can take blame for importing them. “They’ve only been here a couple of months,” Miller said.
Continued Miller:
So what the detectives are telling me is they have crews here that operate in New York, do all their stealing, then go to Florida to spend the money and then come back.
And I’m like, well, why don’t they just stay and steal in Florida? And they said, because there you go to jail.
Manhattan prosecutors released five without bail, four of whom fled to California, the Post reported.
They “were thought to have gone to a faith-based charity, who provided their bus tickets to the Golden State, but authorities now believe taxpayer money was used instead.”
“Migrants” get a “G number” when they arrive in the city to track them through its shelters, a source told the Post:
Cops are probing whether the Times Square migrants stole “G numbers” from others and used them to obtain the tickets. NYPD officers realized they’d fled when investigators recognized their images.
In all, seven migrants have been arrested so far in the assault, and sources said six more are being sought.
Darwin Andres Gomez, 19, Kelvin Servita Arocha, 19, Wilson Juarez, 21, and Yorman Reveron, 24, were released without bail and fled via bus to California, authorities have said. Three more have also been nabbed: Jhoan Boada, 22, Jandry Barros, 21, and Yohenry Brito, 24.
Brito is being held at Rikers Island on $15,000 cash bail. Boada was released without bail.
Within the last 24 hours, US Customs and Border Patrol have issued warrants for Gomez; Arocha; Juarez; Reveron; and Boada, a source said.
Sanctuary New York
New York City is an illegal-alien sanctuary. That felonious harboring of illegals began in 2014 under former leftist Mayor Bill deBlasio, who signed the law that restricts police from cooperating with ICE.
Speaking at a news conference, Mayor Eric Adams, also a hard leftist, said he can’t undo that law.
He also said ICE is free to operate in the city:
And ICE can execute warrants. ICE can have a role here.… No one is stopping ICE from doing their job. They have a job to do when you deal with dangerous people such as that. I cannot use city resources based on existing law. And so I think that’s a question that should be presented to the Council, how do they want to move forward on this issue?
Adams refused to say the law that blocks ICE-NYPD cooperation must be repealed.
