Estranged wife of accused NYC subway maniac shot in head during fight dumped him because he was increasingly ‘aggressive’
NY Post
The wife of the Brooklyn subway rider who went off the rails during Thursday’s commute and ended up shot in the head told The Post on Friday she dumped him last year because he was becoming too “aggressive.”
Lisa Sweat, the estranged spouse of unhinged armed straphanger DaJuan Robinson, 36, said her husband had been a construction worker who didn’t exhibit any mental issues when they were together — but that she had to give him the boot because he “changed.”
“He didn’t have any mental issues. We were good when we were good,’’ Sweat said from her Staten Island home.
Then “the last couple of months, he just got aggressive with me, and I let him go,’’ she said of Robinson — who Mayor Eric Adams and top cops said was clearly exhibiting signs of mental illness during Thursday’s rampage.
Robinson was accused of pushing his wife and throwing something at their TV in November 2022 — when she failed to say hi as he entered their Staten Island home, law-enforcement sources said.
At the time, cops were told Robinson had previously been seen with a gun a few months earlier, but it was unclear what the outcome of the report was.
