NYC squatters get the OK sign with no bail for the Queens thug who sublet rooms during his takeover
NY Post
New York City’s squatter nightmare continues: Brian Rodriguez, the repeat-offending thug who squatted in a Queens woman’s house and had the audacity to try and sublet rooms in it during his squat, has been cut loose with no bail.
Let that sink in.
A vicious crook with previous convictions for burglary and drug offenses tries to literally steal a woman’s house out from under her, and a bonkers judge decides he’s a good candidate for supervised release.
Prosecutors asked for $100,000 bail, and rightly so.
Rodriguez faces burglary, grand larceny and criminal trespassing charges and a possible 15-year sentence if found guilty.
But now every other thieving squatter in Gotham has gotten a message loud and clear: Go right ahead.
