CNN anchor Erica Hill was stunned and speechless when a law enforcement expert on her panel suggested that illegal aliens commit crimes in New York rather than Florida because they know they'll get away with it in the Democratic stronghold.
This analysis came as John Miller, the NYPD's deputy commissioner for intelligence and counterterrorism, was discussing a recent case involving several illegal aliens who assaulted two New York City police officers.
The incident was captured on video but many of those involved in the attack were almost immediately released without bail despite having extensive criminal papers as well as being in the country illegally.
CNN had just aired a clip of New York Governor Kathy Hochul threatening illegal aliens with lying platitudes like: “Don't touch our police officers.”
Clearly they do. They can. They know they will get away with it. It's written all over their faces.

Miller, who is also a former NYPD officer, saw the clip of Hochul's comments and immediately dismantled any notion that these illegal aliens take tough talk seriously.
“Does the fact that they were police officers change anything?” Hill asked, noting that a criminal invasion in New York City might be taken more seriously after such a blatant attack on law enforcement.
After ticking off a list of violent criminal charges these individuals were facing, Miller provided this information: “What investigators are telling me is that they have crews here that work in New York, do all their robberies and then go to Florida to relieve themselves.” “Then the money comes back,” he said.
“And I say, ‘Why don’t they stay and steal in Florida?’ And they say, ‘Because there you will go to prison.’”
Hill was clearly surprised by the comments.

Complete joke
Shortly after their release, reports emerged that the illegal immigrants who assaulted two New York police officers fled to California using fake names and with the help of a Catholic charitable group.
Oddly enough, crossing the border illegally is essentially a gateway to worse crime and continued illegal behavior. Despite the fact that Democrats would have you believe that illegal aliens commit crimes at a lower rate.
they In reality 100% committing crimes by being here illegally.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg issued a statement within hours of the attack explaining that the attackers had been released due to a lack of information at the time of arrest.
A 25-year-old NYPD cop slammed Bragg's excuse as a “complete joke” because the illegal aliens committed “bailable offenses.”
