Sicko who lassoed woman around neck, raped her on NYC street showed eerie precision, source says: ‘He’s done this before’
The man arrested in the horrific caught-on-camera attack in which a woman was lassoed with a belt from behind, dragged unconscious and raped acted with an eerie precision, according to a police source. “I definitely think he’s done it before,” said a Bronx detective, who asked to remain anonymous because he wasn’t cleared to talk to the news media. “It was too clean. Normally, the first time out they make huge mistakes. This was no mistake. This guy was precise.” Kashaan Parks was arrested Saturday and charged with walking up behind the victim — then tossing a belt around her neck and pulling her to the ground,...
Woman attacked in NYC Whole Foods sues store for not keeping shoppers safe
A woman bashed in the head with a glass bottle while shopping at Whole Foods claims in a lawsuit that the Midtown store failed to keep its customers safe. Cassidy Arkin, 49, was grocery shopping at the Sixth Avenue supermarket in October when she was blindsided by a rampaging maniac, authorities said.

It was a typical night shift for Fatum, 26, until she responded to a 9 p.m. call about a man having heart trouble on the Upper West Side. She and her partner picked up Rudolph “Rudy” Garcia, a...

The pattern repeats itself: How today’s college protests are nothing new
In 2013, Brown University, where I am a professor of economics, invited New York City’s then-Police Commissioner Ray Kelly to give a lecture. Kelly had presided over a massive expansion of stop-and-frisk police tactics during his tenure, along with a host of other surveillance measures. At the time, I was a vociferous critic of America’s criminal-justice system and I was skeptical of stop-and-frisk. Under Kelly’s leadership, black New Yorkers were being stopped on the street and searched under the thinnest of pretexts.
