Nunchuck-wielding maniac attacks podcaster, is promptly cut loose by NYC judge
NY Post
A nunchuck-wielding nutjob with a lengthy rap sheet attacked a podcaster in Midtown — but was promptly cut loose with no bail by a Manhattan judge, The Post has learned.
Bryant Kenyatta, 50, apparently left podcaster Stevie Lew with a fractured arm in the unprovoked attack at Seventh Avenue and 35th Street around noon March 12 — after following Lew and screaming, “F–k you! I’m going to f–k you up,” the victim said on a podcast.
But Kenyatta — who has 12 prior arrests — was put back on the streets Tuesday on supervised release by Judge Marva Brown, the same judge who made headlines two months ago for setting another alleged violent attacker free.
Brown previously freed Amira Hunter, who was accused of bashing a subway cellist in the head with a metal bottle.
Hunter was rearrested days later.
Kenyatta attacked after allegedly following Lew and threatening him, the victim said on an “MLC Podcast” episode.
